Context
Restricted stock awards are a form of compensation and typically vest over time; they do not indicate an immediate buy or sell market action. The $0 acquisition price reported reflects the grant reporting convention — the economic value depends on Balchem’s market price at vesting or sale and any applicable tax/tax-withholding events that may occur at vesting.
