Context
RSU awards are not immediate free shares — they convert to common stock only as they vest and subject to service/performance conditions, so the reported awards do not represent immediate selling power. The small open‑market sale here is described as a tax-withholding sale (routine) and should not be interpreted on its own as a bullish or bearish signal about company prospects.
