Context

• This is a compensatory equity grant (RSUs), not an open-market purchase or sale. RSUs convert into actual shares only upon vesting, so this grant does not represent immediate buying or selling pressure. Such awards are common as part of executive compensation and do not, by themselves, indicate insider trading intent.
