Key Details

  • Transaction date: March 16, 2026; Form 4 filed March 18, 2026 (appears timely).
  • Exercise price: $24.89 per share.
  • Gross shares acquired: 3,128 (total value reported $77,856).
  • Shares withheld for taxes: 583 (value reported $14,511).
  • Net shares retained: 2,545.
  • Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the provided excerpt of the filing.
  • Relevant footnotes in the filing reference prior RSU/PSU awards and standard vesting schedules (grants under 2023–2025 Omnibus Equity Plans; some awards vest over three years or are performance-contingent).

Context

  • This was an exercise/conversion of derivative awards (M). The filing shows both acquisition of shares and corresponding dispositions of the derivative instruments — a standard reporting pattern when options/units are exercised and converted into shares.
  • The surrender of 583 shares to cover taxes is a common practice (not an open-market sale) and does not necessarily indicate a bearish view; it is a routine tax-withholding action.
  • For retail investors: exercises increase an insider’s outright share count (here, net +2,545 shares), which can be more informative than routine sales.
