Context
- This was a routine vesting of previously granted RSUs, not an open-market buy or sale. The tax withholding (share surrender) is a common mechanism to satisfy tax obligations on vested awards and does not necessarily indicate the insider’s view on the company’s stock. Transaction codes: M = exercise/conversion of a derivative (here, RSU conversion), F = payment of tax liability via share withholding.
