Key Details
- Transaction date: May 15, 2026. Withholding share price: $95.07 per share.
- Vested/converted: 5,066 RSUs → 5,066 shares (reported as derivative exercise/conversion, code M).
- Shares surrendered for taxes: 1,125 shares ($106,954) and 870 shares ($82,711) (code F) — total 1,995 shares, ~$189,665.
- Net shares received: ~3,071 shares (5,066 vested minus 1,995 withheld).
- Footnotes: F1 indicates shares were relinquished to cover federal/state tax withholding per Rule 16b-3. F2–F4 explain that each RSU equals one share and note a 12-quarter (quarterly) vesting schedule (first vestings on Feb 13, 2026 and May 15, 2026 for respective grants).
- Filing timeliness: Report filed May 18, 2026 for a May 15, 2026 vesting — filed within the standard two business days (timely).
Context
- These entries reflect RSU vesting and routine "sell-to-cover" (or share withholding) for taxes, not an open-market sale by the insider. Such withholding is common and does not necessarily signal a buy/sell view of the stock.
- Code meanings: M = exercise/conversion of a derivative (RSU conversion to shares); F = shares surrendered/withheld to pay tax obligations.
