Key Details

  • Transaction date: June 15, 2026; Form 4 filed June 17, 2026 (timely filing).
  • Vesting/settlement: 4,042 RSUs vested and were settled into shares (codes M/A indicate conversion/award).
  • Tax withholding: 486 shares withheld to satisfy tax liability (code F); withheld value = 486 × $79.70 = $38,734.
  • Net shares issued to insider: 4,042 − 486 = 3,556 common shares.
  • New award: 2,383 RSUs granted on June 15, 2026; per the filing these RSUs vest on June 15, 2027, subject to continued service (unvested).

  • Shares owned after the transaction: not specified in the summary provided.

Context

  • This was not an open-market buy or sale: it reflects RSU vesting/settlement and a new RSU grant. The withholding of shares to cover taxes is a common, cashless way to satisfy tax obligations and does not by itself signal a market view. The new 2,383 RSUs are subject to future vesting conditions (not immediately transferable).
