Context Grants to company directors are commonly part of annual or meeting-related compensation (restricted stock or RSU awards) and are different from open-market purchases; they compensate service and do not, by themselves, signal the director buying shares in the market. For retail investors, these awards are useful to track but should be interpreted alongside other insider activity and company fundamentals.
