Key Details
- Transaction dates: Feb 13, 2026 (2,079 RSUs vested) and Feb 15, 2026 (795 RSUs vested; 2,753 RSU grant).
- Tax withholding disposals: 984 shares @ $432.31 = $425,393 (2/13); 376 shares @ $432.31 = $162,549 (2/15). Derivative conversions recorded at $0.00 per share.
- Net shares retained from these vestings: 2,079−984 = 1,095 (from 2/13); 795−376 = 419 (from 2/15) → 1,514 net newly issued shares retained.
- Grant: 2,753 RSUs awarded on Feb 15, 2026 (see vesting schedule below).
- Vesting schedule (footnotes): 2,079 RSUs vested 2/13/2026 (and 2,079 slated to vest 2/13/2027); 795 vested 2/15/2026 (and 795 on 2/15/2027 & 2/15/2028); the 2,753 RSU award vests in parts on 2/15/2027 (917) and on 2/15 of 2028 & 2029 (918 each).
- Shares owned after the transaction: not specified in the provided filing excerpt.
- Filing timeliness: Report filed 2/18/2026 for 2/13 and 2/15 transactions; this appears timely given the Feb 16 U.S. market holiday (Presidents’ Day), which affects the two‑business‑day Form 4 deadline.
Context and interpretation: These entries reflect RSU vesting and standard tax‑withholding (shares surrendered to the issuer), not open‑market sales. Such withholding is routine and does not necessarily indicate a voluntary sale or change in insider sentiment. The award on Feb 15 is a future‑vesting grant, not an immediate stock purchase.
