• Transaction date: 2026-05-06; Form 4 filed 2026-05-08 (timely, within typical two-business-day requirement).
• Grant type/code: A (award/grant) — recorded as a derivative acquisition at $0.00.
• Shares/units granted: 8,393 RSUs; per‑RSU value $24.13; total grant ≈ $202,523.

Context

• RSUs are a form of compensation/retention award, not a market purchase or sale. They convert to actual shares only as they vest, so this grant does not represent an immediate open‑market investment by the insider.
