Affirm (AFRM) COO Michael Linford Exercises RSUs, Sells Shares

What Happened
Michael Linford, Chief Operating Officer of Affirm (AFRM), had 2,335 restricted stock units (RSUs) convert to shares on April 1, 2026 (transaction code M). To satisfy tax withholding obligations, 975 of those shares were withheld/disposed at $45.54 per share, generating $44,402 (transaction code F).
