Corporate Governance Analyst

Director received equity in lieu of cash; modest ownership change.

The Form 4 documents a non-cash director compensation election: 570 shares issued at a noted price of $54.8 on 10/01/2025. This increases the director's beneficial holdings to 23,809 shares, a change explicitly tied to the company's Director Stock Election Program.

This is a routine administration of director compensation and confirms alignment via equity rather than cash; the filing contains no derivative transactions or other material securities events.
