- Derivative conversions (transaction code M): 8,826; 2,910; and 25,136 shares (total 36,872). Corresponding disposition entries list $0.00 consideration.
- Awards/grants (transaction code A): 30,689 RSUs and 15,345 RSUs (total 46,034 RSUs). Footnote F1: each RSU represents a contingent right to one share of Class A common stock.

- Relevant footnotes (F2–F6) summarize prior RSU grants (dates: Jan 23, 2023; Jan 23, 2024; Jan 23, 2025) and their vesting schedules (staggered vesting with portions vesting in 2026, 2027 and full vesting by Jan 23, 2029 for one grant).
Context
- Transaction codes: M = exercise/conversion of derivative; A = grant/award. For retail investors: the filing shows conversion of derivative awards and new RSU grants, with no cash proceeds reported on the disposition lines — the filing does not state cash sales or market transactions.
- RSU grants are typically subject to continued service-based vesting (see footnotes), so the awarded RSUs do not necessarily represent immediately tradable shares until they vest.
- Filing was timely, so no late-filing implications are indicated.
