Context DSUs are a form of deferred compensation for directors: they represent the economic value of shares, accrue dividend equivalents, and are typically paid out (converted to shares or cash) when the director leaves the board. Such awards are routine board compensation and do not by themselves indicate the insider’s view of the company’s near-term prospects.
