Context
Deferred stock unit awards are a common form of director compensation and are typically settled into actual shares upon the director’s departure; they do not represent an immediate purchase or sale in the open market. Such grants are routine and should be interpreted as compensation rather than a direct signal of personal buying or selling conviction.
