Context
Net settlements to cover taxes on vested RSUs are routine and do not reflect an open-market sale or an additional cash purchase. This reduces the number of shares issued to the insider but is generally an administrative event tied to compensation vesting, not necessarily a signal about the insider’s view of the company.
