Context

• This was a compensation event (RSU vesting), not an open-market buy or sell; the 97-share disposition represents shares withheld to satisfy taxes, not a market sale intended as a liquidity or trading signal. Performance-based RSUs reflect prior grants (2023) vesting according to plan terms.
