Context

• The M-code entries indicate option exercises and related derivative dispositions. The $0 disposals reported with those exercises commonly reflect share withholding or other non-cash dispositions tied to the exercise (e.g., to satisfy tax withholding), while the open-market sales generated cash proceeds.
• These transactions include both exercises (acquisitions) and sales; sales are often routine or to diversify/cover taxes, while exercises reflect option vesting. This filing is informational and does not by itself indicate insider sentiment.
