Context
These entries are compensation-related awards (RSUs/share equivalents and vested performance units). Such grants are common as long-term compensation and do not necessarily signal the insider’s near-term buying or selling sentiment. Restricted stock units typically convert to actual shares on their vesting/payment date per the plan terms; performance units reflect prior performance metrics and have vested or will vest according to the award rules.
