Context
This activity is compensation-related (RSU vesting and settlement) rather than an open-market buy or proactive sell. The conversion of RSUs into shares and the share disposals were for tax withholding—common, routine insider activity that does not necessarily indicate a change in confidence or intent to trade shares in the open market.
