Context
This was a routine director compensation grant (deferred stock units), not an open‑market purchase or sale. Such awards are common for non‑employee directors and are typically settled in stock at a later date (here, after leaving the board). Because these are deferred compensation units rather than an immediate market purchase, they should be viewed as administrative compensation rather than a direct bullish or bearish trading signal.
