Context
Sales under a 10b5‑1 plan are typically pre‑arranged and scheduled trades and do not necessarily indicate a change in the insider's view of the company. For retail investors, purchases tend to be more informative about insider confidence; routine sales like this are often part of planned diversification or liquidity needs. The RSUs noted in the filing represent potential future shares upon vesting rather than currently vested shares.
