Context
This was a compensation-related stock award to a board director (not an open-market purchase or sale). Awards like this are routine director compensation and do not, by themselves, indicate a buy/sell signal. The filing shows certain previously acquired DRP shares included per the footnotes, but does not provide a post-transaction total share ownership figure.
