- Some PRSUs are earned but will settle at the end of their performance periods (e.g., 12/31/2026 or 12/31/2027); some RSUs vest ratably over three years.

Context
- These transactions reflect compensation vesting/settlement and routine tax withholding rather than a discretionary open-market sale. Awarded shares (A) are a common form of executive compensation tied to performance; withheld shares (F) are used to satisfy tax obligations upon vesting. Because several PRSUs will only settle at the end of their performance periods, future share counts may change as additional awards vest or settle.
