Context

• Sales under a 10b5‑1 plan to cover tax obligations on vested restricted stock units are common and are typically considered routine, not necessarily a directional statement about the CEO’s view of the company.
• For retail investors, note that purchases by insiders often carry more interpretive weight than tax‑driven or plan‑driven sales.
