Context
This was a vesting of previously granted RSUs (a non‑cash award) that converted into common stock; a portion was sold soon after vesting to cover taxes — a routine, administrative sale rather than an open‑market purchase signaling additional insider accumulation. The filing shows a derivative exercise/conversion code (M) for the RSU vesting and a sale code (S) for the open‑market disposition.
