  • Transaction codes: M (exercise/conversion of derivative — conversion of RSUs into shares) and F (shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding). This is a routine compensation vesting event, not an open-market purchase or sale by the insider.

Key Details

  • Transaction date: May 15, 2026. Report filed: May 19, 2026 (timely).
  • Vesting/conversion: 8,705 shares issued at $0.00 (conversion of RSUs).
  • Tax withholding: 4,679 shares withheld at $94.92 each = $444,131.

Context

  • This was a cashless tax-withholding on vested RSUs (common for employee equity grants). It does not represent an open-market sale or a purchase signal by the insider, but simply the conversion of compensation into shares and the company withholding shares to cover taxes.
  • No indication of unusual timing or tardy filing; the Form 4 was filed within required business-day windows.
