  • Converted (M) / Acquired: 57,391 and 60,496 shares (RSU conversion) at $0 exercise price.

  • Footnotes: conversions came from RSU grants dated Feb 22, 2023 (fully vested) and Feb 19, 2024 (partial vesting). The 2023 award has no remaining unvested portion; the 2024 award has remaining units that vest every six months through Feb 25, 2027.
  • Filing timeliness: no late filing flag shown; filing date is two days after the transaction date.

Context

  • These transactions are conversions of RSUs (derivative instruments) into common stock and a customary “share surrender” to cover tax withholding — not an open-market sale or purchase. Such withholding is routine and doesn’t necessarily signal a view on the stock.
  • Because this was a conversion of awarded RSUs (no cash purchase), it’s primarily an equity compensation event rather than an active buy or sell by the insider.
