Insights
TL;DR Officer received performance RSUs that vested and sold shares solely to cover tax withholding; remaining holdings remain material.
The filing shows a routine compensation event rather than an active trading decision. 14,337 performance RSUs vested and converted to common stock on 09/15/2025, and 11,718 shares were sold on 09/16/2025 at a weighted-average price of $280.6977 to cover taxes. Remaining beneficial ownership of 100,822 shares maintains the officer's economic stake. There is no indication of discretionary selling beyond tax-related withholding.
TL;DR Disclosure is standard and compliant: vesting, withholding sale, and POA signature are properly reported.
The Form 4 discloses performance-based RSU vesting under the company's incentive plan and a tax-withholding sale executed under the issuer's election. The report includes the weighted-average sale price range and a statement that the sale was to satisfy tax obligations, which aligns with common equity plan administration practices. The signature by power of attorney is noted and dated 09/17/2025.
