Context
- The $0.00 price for the March awards indicates equity compensation (PSUs/RSUs), not an open-market purchase. Such awards are part of executive compensation and vest over time; they do not necessarily signal a near-term bullish action.
- The 3,436-share disposal was a tax-withholding sale (routine), not an opportunistic open-market sale. These are common when awards vest or are settled and the company withholds shares to meet tax obligations.
