Context

• RSUs are compensation awards that convert to company shares only upon vesting; they are not an immediate purchase or sale of stock. Such grants are common for aligning executive/director incentives with shareholder value and do not, by themselves, indicate buying or selling sentiment. Taxation and actual share ownership occur when the RSUs vest and are settled.
