Key Details

• Transaction dates: 2026-01-19 (award and withholding); Form 4 filed 2026-01-21 (appears timely).
• Award: 226,665 shares acquired (code A) at $0.00 (no cash purchase).
• Tax withholding: 75,361 shares disposed (code F) at $10.29 → $775,465 withheld to cover taxes.
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the filing.
• Footnotes: F1 = shares delivered upon vesting/settlement of PSUs; F2 = shares withheld to satisfy taxes.
• Transaction codes explained: A = Award/Grant; F = Tax withholding (share surrender) — routine, not an open-market sale.

Context This was a settlement of equity compensation (PSUs) rather than an open-market purchase or voluntary sale. The withholding of shares to cover taxes is a common administrative step and does not necessarily indicate a change in the insider’s investment stance.
