Context

• This was an equity award (RSUs), not an open-market purchase—RSU grants are compensation and not a direct bullish purchase signal. The 17,582-share disposition was a routine tax withholding/cashless settlement to satisfy tax obligations tied to the RSU award.
• Retail investors often treat outright purchases as stronger signals than routine grant-related withholding. The vesting schedule shows most shares remain subject to future service-based vesting.
