Context

These transactions are award vestings and option/derivative grants (including performance share units and RSUs) rather than open-market buys or discretionary sales. The 507-share disposition was a tax-withholding action (common on vesting) and should not be read the same as an intentional sale for investment reasons. Derivative/option awards include future vesting schedules (starts 2/7/27) per the filing.
