Context

• The largest piece of this activity (19,898 shares) was a tax-withholding event tied to RSU settlement — a routine administrative disposition that does not necessarily signal a change in sentiment.
• The remaining shares were sold under a pre-established 10b5-1 trading plan, which is a pre-set instruction and is common for executives to avoid questions about timing.
• These transactions are sales (not purchases); sales are common for tax or diversification purposes and should be interpreted cautiously by investors.
