Context
These transactions are routine RSU vesting and tax withholding (a cashless withholding), not open‑market sales or purchases. The withheld shares to cover taxes are common practice and do not necessarily indicate a change in the insider’s view of the company. The 1,631 RSU grant is a future compensation award and does not immediately increase common‑share holdings until those RSUs vest.
