• Timeliness: The Form 4 was filed on 2026-02-18. The 2/16 award was reported within the SEC’s typical 2-business-day window; the 2/13 withholding sale was reported on 2/18, which is after the usual 2-business-day reporting deadline.

Context

• The 4,100 RSUs are an award, not an open-market purchase; they vest over time (three annual installments) and therefore do not represent immediate buying pressure. The 632-share disposition is a routine tax-withholding action (code F), commonly used to satisfy tax liabilities when equity awards vest or are settled, and should not be read as a discretionary sale for cash.
