• Grant price/value: $27.26 per share; total reported value $124,987.
• Shares owned after transaction: Not disclosed in the supplied filing.
• Vesting/footnote: RSUs become fully vested on the first anniversary of the grant (Feb 1, 2027) and will be payable solely in shares of common stock.

Context
RSUs are a deferred equity award: no shares were immediately sold or bought on the open market. Vesting next year will determine when actual shares are delivered to the insider. Grants to directors are commonly part of compensation and do not, by themselves, indicate a near‑term trading signal.
