Context
These were sales, primarily to satisfy tax withholding on vested restricted stock units, and do not represent a purchase (which some investors view as a stronger signal of insider confidence). The use of a Rule 10b5‑1 plan and the tax‑withholding purpose are common and typically viewed as routine rather than an indicator of a change in insider sentiment.
