Context
- This is RSU-related activity (grant/vesting and conversion). RSU conversions and awards typically reflect compensation vesting rather than an open‑market purchase or sale; the 2,796 converted shares were reported as disposed (the filing does not specify whether that disposal was a sale, net settlement, or other settlement method). The 139 shares are additional stock from a dividend tied to the partial vesting of the RSUs.
