To satisfy tax withholding, 420 of those shares were withheld/disposed at $287.84 per share, totaling $120,893.

- RSU conversion: 1,078 shares reported as acquired via conversion (derivative code M) at $0.00 (typical for RSU vesting).
- Tax withholding/payment: 420 shares disposed at $287.84 each = $120,893 (code F).

- Relevant footnotes: RSUs represent a contingent right to one share each; the RSU grant dated April 24, 2024 totaled 4,311 RSUs vesting in four equal annual installments (1,078 ≈ 1/4 of the grant). Filing also notes 62.2360 shares acquired under the ESPP on 03/31/2026.
Context
- This was a standard RSU vesting and tax-withholding event, not an open‑market sale or purchase. Withholding of shares to cover taxes (code F) is common and should be viewed as an administrative action rather than a directional bet by the insider. The filing appears timely (filed within two business days of the April 24 transaction).
