Context

• RSUs are a form of compensation that give the holder the right to receive shares in the future (subject to deferral/vesting rules); they do not represent an immediate open‑market buy or sale. Grants to non-employee directors are commonly routine compensation and do not by themselves indicate a change in the director's view of company prospects.
