Key Details
- Transaction date: 2026-02-09; Form 4 filed: 2026-02-11 (filed within the typical two-business-day window).
- Grant amount and price: 185,238 RSUs at $0.00 (derivative award).
- Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the filing.
- Vesting schedule (from filing footnotes): the award vests as to 1/12 of the total award initially (first tranche vesting on March 1, 2026), then quarterly on May 15, August 15, November 15, and March 1 thereafter.
- Expiration: the RSUs do not expire; they will either vest or be cancelled prior to vesting.
- Nature of transaction: compensation award (not an open-market purchase or sale), contingent on continued service.
Context
- RSU grants are a common form of executive compensation and do not represent immediate share ownership or sale—shares are delivered (and typically taxable) only as units vest.
- Investors may note the vesting timeline to anticipate when shares could be issued to the insider, but the grant itself is a routine compensation event rather than a direct market buy/sell signal.
