Context

RSUs are compensation awards that convert into company shares if and when they vest; they are common retention/compensation tools and do not represent an immediate buy or sell in the market. Because this is a grant (not a market purchase or sale), it signals compensation/retention action rather than an immediate view on the stock price.
