The filing shows the full vesting of an RSU award of 51,606 shares and a PSU award of 51,606, together totaling 103,212 vested shares from grants dated 9/30/2022.

To satisfy tax withholding, the company reported a net settlement of 52,690 shares at $12.11, reducing the reporting person’s post-transaction beneficial ownership to 50,522 shares. These are routine compensation mechanics explicitly disclosed in the form.

Insider ownership changed materially via vesting and net settlement; no additional purchases or discretionary sales disclosed.

The transactions are coded as vesting (codes M) for both RSUs and PSUs and a disposition (code F) for tax withholding, all dated 10/01/2025. The document does not show purchases or open-market sales beyond the net settlement for taxes.
