Context

• This was an equity award (RSUs), not an open-market purchase or sale. RSU grants are compensation instruments and become actual shares only upon vesting and settlement. Awards and transfers into trusts are routine corporate and estate planning events and do not by themselves signal an open-market buying or selling decision.
