Key Details
- Transaction date: 2026-04-28 (Form 4 filed 2026-04-30; filing appears timely).
- Amount granted: 809 RSUs (509 + 300); reported acquisition price: $0.00.
- Vesting/delivery: RSUs vest on the earlier of the 2027 annual shareholders’ meeting or the first anniversary of the grant. Vested shares will be delivered to Johnston when he ceases to be a member of the Board.
- Shares owned after the transaction: not specified in the provided filing.
- Transaction code: A = Award/Grant (restricted share units).
Context This is a standard director compensation grant (RSUs), not an open-market purchase or sale. RSU grants do not involve immediate cash proceeds and, in this case, delivery of shares is deferred until vesting and board-service cessation, so it should not be read as an immediate market sentiment signal.
