Context
- These transactions reflect award vesting and standard tax-withholding mechanics (not an open-market discretionary sale). The M-coded entries denote conversion/exercise of derivative awards (RSUs/PSUs converting into common stock). The F-coded dispositions are tax withholding/cashless-settlement-type actions to satisfy tax liabilities, which is a routine administrative step and not necessarily an indicator of bullish or bearish insider sentiment.
