Context

• These awards are routine director compensation (deferred stock units), not indicative of an open-market buy or sale. Deferred units typically convert to shares or cash at a future elected date (per plan rules) and may have vesting or payout timing conditions noted in the footnotes. Retail investors typically view director awards as standard compensation rather than a direct bullish or bearish signal.
