  • Reported weighted average price: $18.12. Actual sale prices ranged from $17.61 to $19.6099 (footnote indicates multiple trades; reporting person can provide the per-price breakdown on request).
  • Shares sold: 18,981 and 38 (total 19,019). Total proceeds reported: ~$344,655.

Context

  • Tax-withholding sales tied to RSU settlements are common and typically routine (do not necessarily signal insider sentiment). Retail investors often pay more attention to outright purchases, new grants, or unusual sales by multiple insiders.
  • The filing notes the sales were executed across multiple prices (weighted average reported); the filer offers to provide exact per-price breakdown if requested.
