Context
- RSU awards are common executive/director compensation and do not necessarily signal a buy or sell decision by the insider. Value is realized at vesting and depends on MGEE’s share price at that time; tax consequences generally occur when the RSUs vest or are paid out.
- Because this was an award (not a market purchase or sale), it’s typically interpreted as routine compensation rather than a direct insider market signal.
