• Shares owned after transaction: Not disclosed in this filing.
• Footnotes: Company withheld shares to satisfy tax obligations on vested RSUs (F1). Some securities are RSU-based (F2). The transaction also reflects 29 shares acquired under the AppLovin 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan on May 20, 2026 (F3).
• Transaction code meaning: F = payment of exercise price or tax liability (i.e., share withholding for taxes), not a market sale.

Context
Net-settlement or share-withholding to cover taxes upon RSU vesting is a common administrative practice and does not necessarily indicate insider selling for liquidity or a change in outlook. For retail investors, purchases or open-market sales by insiders typically convey clearer buying/selling signals than withholding transactions like this one.
