Context

RSUs are a common form of executive compensation that convert to shares if and when they vest; they are not an immediate purchase and do not necessarily signal buying or selling intent. Because these units vest over four years, any eventual stock receipt (and any associated sales or tax-withholding) will occur in future periods per the vesting schedule.
