Context

• Tax-withholding by the issuer is a common, administrative disposition that reduces the insider’s outstanding restricted shares; it does not necessarily indicate buying or selling sentiment. This should be treated differently from an open-market sale or purchase — proceeds reflect withheld shares to cover taxes rather than a deliberate cash-sale of shares.
