Context This was an award/vesting of compensation (performance RSUs), not an open-market purchase or sale. Awards at $0.00 reflect issuance upon vesting—they are taxable compensation events for the insider rather than a signal of buying/selling activity. Such grants are common as part of executive pay and do not, by themselves, indicate the insider’s market view.
