Key Details

• Transaction date: July 24, 2026; Form 4 filed August 14, 2026 (appears late relative to the typical 2-business-day Form 4 deadline).
• Shares/units granted: 162,112 RSUs; grant price reported as $0.00.
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in this filing.
• Vesting: 6.25% of RSUs vest quarterly during the first 12 months after grant; 25% vest on each July 22 thereafter through July 22, 2030. (Footnote F1)
• Settlement: Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of common stock upon settlement; filing includes unvested RSUs. (Footnote F2)
• Transaction type: Award/grant (compensation), not an open-market buy or sale.

Context RSU grants are common executive compensation and do not reflect an immediate cash purchase or sale. As the RSUs vest and are settled into shares over time, they can increase the insider’s shareholdings and potentially dilute existing shareholders. The late filing may be noteworthy for compliance monitoring but does not change the economic nature of the award.
