Context
- These are awards (A), not open‑market purchases or sales — common for employee compensation and retention. RSUs are contingent rights to receive shares at vesting and do not necessarily indicate immediate buying or selling of stock.
- The grants include a short‑term tranche that vests in 60 days (more near‑term potential share delivery) and a longer staggered tranche to align incentives over multiple years.
