Context
Deferred stock units are a form of compensation that typically convert to common shares at a future event (here, departure from the board). Because these units are fully vested at grant, the award is a completed compensation event for the director but does not represent an immediate open-market purchase or sale. Such awards are common for non-employee directors and are informational rather than a direct bullish/bearish trading signal.
