Context

• An "A" code indicates a grant or award (commonly restricted stock units or other equity compensation). The filing does not state vesting terms or whether shares are restricted, so this may reflect routine director compensation rather than a market-timing trade.
• Awards are generally less informative about insider confidence than outright purchases, but they do increase the insider's stake over time.
