Context DSUs are a common form of non-cash director compensation and represent a future right to receive company shares; they do not reflect an open-market purchase or sale. Because these units vest over time and will be settled in common stock, they are reported here as directly owned shares rather than derivative instruments. As with typical awards, this is routine compensation and should not be interpreted as an immediate buy or sell signal.
