Context
These entries are largely internal—vestings/settlements and new equity awards—rather than open‑market purchases or sales. The withholding of 4,348 shares to cover taxes is a routine "net share settlement" (code F) and is not the same as an open‑market sale. Performance-based units have a separate measurement period and possible payout range (up to 150%), and some vested shares were cancelled per performance evaluation (routine accounting of awards).
