Context
- These transactions are primarily tax-withholding events tied to vesting and new RSU grants. Withheld shares (F) are not open-market sales reflecting a directional bet; they are routine shares retained to cover tax obligations when awards vest. The 77,277 RSUs granted on 3/13 vest over three years (2027–2029). The filing also indicates the company achieved 110% payout on certain performance RSUs for FY2025, producing additional shares above target (F4).
