Context
- This was a routine RSU vesting and tax-withholding event (not an open-market purchase or discretionary sale). The withholding of 7,870 shares was to satisfy tax liabilities from the vesting (common in cashless settlements). Such transactions typically reflect compensation settlement rather than a directional insider trade signal.
