What Happened

Key Details
- Transaction date and price: March 20, 2026; 1,546 shares at $10.30 each (total $15,924).
- Transaction code: F — withholding/delivery of securities to cover tax liability upon vesting (net settlement).
- Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the provided filing excerpt; footnote F3 notes the reporting person holds non-RSU common stock and aggregate vested and unvested RSUs previously reported.
- Notable footnotes:
- F1: These were RSUs that convert to common shares upon vesting.
- F2: The withholding was an exempt, issuer-handled tax withholding under Rule 16b-3 and not a discretionary sale by the reporting person.
- F3: Holdings include non-RSU common stock plus vested/unvested RSUs reported in prior Form 4s.
- Filing timeliness: Form filed March 24, 2026 for a March 20, 2026 transaction — filed within the standard two business-day window.
Context
- This was a routine tax-withholding (cashless/net settlement) when RSUs vested; the issuer withheld shares to meet tax obligations rather than the insider selling shares on the open market. Such withholdings are common and typically do not signal a change in insider sentiment.
