Context

• This was primarily an award/vesting event (not an open-market sale or purchase). The withholding of shares to cover taxes is a common administrative step and does not necessarily indicate a change in insider sentiment. The filing documents a performance-based award vesting and routine tax withholding rather than an active market sale.
