Context

These are performance-based equity awards, not open-market purchases or immediate share issuances. PSUs only convert into actual shares if the specified stock-price targets are met within the performance window; until then they are contingent rights (derivatives). Such grants are commonly used for executive compensation and retention and do not represent an immediate cash outflow or stock sale.
