This transaction was part of a pre-established 10b5-1 plan, which allows insiders to set up a predetermined schedule for selling stocks to avoid any potential accusations of insider trading.

Earlier in the month, on April 3, Holder disposed of 25 shares at a price of $163.64 each, totaling $4,090. This earlier transaction was primarily to cover taxes related to the vesting of shares earned under a previous restricted stock plan.
