Context
RSU grants are a common form of director/executive compensation and do not represent an immediate purchase or sale of shares. Value to the holder depends on future settlement (stock vs. cash) and market price at vesting. Because this is an award (not an insider buy or sale), it should be viewed as compensation rather than a direct signal of the insider’s trading view.
