Key Details
- Transaction date: March 26, 2026; Form 4 filed March 30, 2026.
- Converted/vested: 28,338 RSUs → 28,338 shares (derivative conversion).
- Tax withholding: 6,901 shares withheld @ $6.54 each = $45,133 (disposition code F).
- Net shares retained by insider: 21,437 (based on numbers reported).
- Footnotes: F1 — RSUs vest annually (33% 3/15/2025; 33% 3/15/2026; 34% 3/15/2027) and may settle in stock or cash. F2 — withheld shares were used to cover tax obligations.
- Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing excerpt.
- Timeliness: Filing covers a 3/26 transaction but was submitted on 3/30 (typically Form 4 is due within two business days), so this appears later than the usual reporting window.
Context This was a routine RSU settlement (an award vesting event), not an open‑market sale or a purchase. Withholding shares to cover taxes is common and does not necessarily signal a deliberate sale of shares for investment reasons. The derivative entries reflect conversion/settlement mechanics rather than cash proceeds to the insider.
