Routine tax withholding; neutral impact.

The filing records an administrative equity event: 276 shares withheld (Code F) at $12.11 on 11/06/2025 to cover taxes upon restricted stock vesting. Such withholdings do not represent an open-market sale and are typical of equity compensation.

Post-transaction holdings are 23,868 shares directly and 1,566 indirectly via a 401(k). The market impact is generally minimal because no discretionary sale occurred; the number of shares and price are explicitly disclosed.
