Key Details

  • Transaction date: 2026-06-18; filing date (Form 4): 2026-06-22.
  • Price per share: $26.04; shares withheld/disposed: 2,775; value ~ $72,261.
  • Shares owned after the transaction: not specified in the provided filing details.
  • Footnote: F1 — shares were withheld by the issuer to satisfy the reporting person’s tax withholding obligations upon release of RSUs.
  • Filing timeliness: filing date listed; no late-filing flag provided in the supplied data.

Context
This is a routine tax-withholding transaction tied to RSU vesting. The company retained shares to cover taxes rather than the insider selling shares on the open market, so it is not a direct signal of buying or selling intent. For investors tracking insider activity, withholdings for taxes are common and generally neutral compared with open-market sales or purchases.
