Context
- These transactions are compensation-related (RSU awards and dividend equivalents) rather than open-market purchases or sales; the 28-share disposition is a routine tax-withholding action, not a market sale for investment purposes.
- Derivative/RSU entries mean Saverio has the right to receive shares under the company’s equity plan; larger future vesting (37,219 RSUs due Feb 2027) could result in further share issuance or withholding when settled.
