Context

• These transactions reflect settlement of a performance-based equity award and routine withholding plus an additional open-market sale. The withholding (F) is a tax payment method and the sale (S) was executed through a broker; this type of activity is common when PRSUs vest and does not, by itself, indicate the insider’s view on the stock.
• Transaction codes: A = Award/acquisition on vesting; F = shares withheld for taxes; S = open-market sale.
