Context
Tax-withholding and forfeiture entries are routine administrative adjustments related to RSUs (they are not open-market sales). The 1,000-share open-market sale generated $28,570 in proceeds; presence of a 10b5-1 plan (adopted 11/21/2025) is noted in the filing, which often indicates preplanned sales but does not by itself explain the timing or motive. No purchase transactions were reported.
