Context
RSUs are a form of equity compensation that entitle the recipient to receive shares (or cash equivalent) in the future; fully vested RSUs mean no additional service requirement, but deferred settlement delays receipt of shares. This type of transaction is typically routine director compensation rather than an open-market purchase or sale and does not by itself indicate the director’s view on the company’s stock.
