Context
This filing reports director compensation and dividend‑related share unit accruals — not a market purchase or sale. The derivative items are dividend equivalents that will convert into common stock (one‑for‑one) and some relate to RSUs with upcoming vesting conditions. Such grants and dividend credits are routine for non‑employee directors and do not by themselves indicate an intent to buy or sell stock.
