Context
This is a compensation award to a director, not an open‑market purchase or sale. Cash‑settled RSUs do not immediately transfer shares; they entitle the holder to a future cash payment tied to the stock price at vesting. Such grants are common for directors and employees and should be viewed as routine compensation rather than a direct insider buy or sell signal.
