Context
- These entries reflect vesting/conversion of restricted stock units (derivative instruments) into common shares (exercise/conversion code M) and routine share withholding to cover tax liabilities (code F). No cash exercise price was paid ($0), and the withholding is a common, administrative step rather than an open‑market sale. The activity does not, by itself, indicate a buy or sell sentiment.
