Context
These were compensation awards rather than open-market purchases or sales, so they reflect company compensation decisions rather than a direct buy/sell signal by the insider. Derivative awards (SARs) give the holder the right to the appreciation in share price subject to future vesting and expiration schedules; they do not represent immediately tradable shares until vested and settled.
