Context
PSUs are performance-based long-term awards; being paid at 200% indicates the maximum contractual payout for the performance period, not an open-market purchase by the executive. Because these are compensation-driven awards (not purchases or sales), they should be viewed as part of executive pay and not necessarily as a direct signal of the insider’s personal market view.
