- Shares withheld/disposed to cover taxes (F): 34,114 + 30,298 + 36,665 = 101,077 shares at $50.14 each, total ≈ $5,068,001.

Context
- These entries reflect RSU vesting and tax-withholding (code M for exercise/conversion of derivative; code F for payment of tax liability via share withholding). The withheld shares are routine tax settlements, not an open-market sale that necessarily signals a change in insider sentiment. This is a common post-vesting cashless tax-withholding treatment rather than a discretionary market sale.
