Context
- RSUs are deferred equity compensation: they have no immediate cash value until they vest and convert into shares. They are routinely used for senior executive pay and do not, by themselves, indicate a buy or sell signal. Recoupment and protection provisions mean the awards can be canceled or clawed back under certain circumstances.
