Key Details
- Transaction dates: grant Feb 19, 2026; vesting/conversion on Feb 21–22, 2026; filing date Feb 23, 2026.
- Transaction types/codes: A = Award/Grant (4,102 RSUs); M = conversion/exercise of derivative (3,617 shares converted); F = payment of tax liability via share withholding (1,220 shares).
- Withholding price used: $28.63 per share; total withheld value ≈ $34,928 (645 shares → $18,466; 575 shares → $16,462).

- Footnotes: the RSUs convert 1-for-1 into common stock. Portions vested immediately (Feb 21 and Feb 22); other RSU tranches remain subject to time-based vesting schedules (see footnotes indicating various one‑third or one‑half future vesting schedules through 2027–2029).
- Filing timeliness: Report filed Feb 23, 2026 covering activity through Feb 22, 2026 — appears to be within the typical Section 16 reporting window.
Context
- These transactions reflect RSU vesting and company tax-withholding (not an open-market buy or sell). The RSUs converted at $0 exercise price (standard for RSU settlement); shares were withheld rather than a cash payment to cover taxes (a routine, administrative step).
- Such grants and subsequent withholdings are common executive compensation events and do not by themselves indicate a change in insider sentiment.
