Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-05-01; filing date: 2026-05-05 (filed on the SEC due date).
• Shares granted: 397 at $85.18 per share; reported total value $33,816.
• Nature of grant: Derivative award — F1 indicates 1-for-1 conversion; F2 states shares are issuable following termination of service as a director (i.e., issuance is tied to future service termination); F3 notes 105 of the shares were credited based on dividends paid March 16, 2026.
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the filing.
• Transaction code: A = Award/other acquisition.

Context
Derivative awards issued to directors are commonly part of director compensation plans and may convert to actual shares under plan terms; because these shares are issuable upon termination of service (per F2), they may not be immediately tradable. This was a compensation award rather than an open-market purchase, so it should be viewed as a routine grant under company compensation practices rather than a direct signal of insider buying or selling.
