Context
- These purchases were made via dividend reinvestment (routine DRIP activity), meaning dividends were automatically used to buy additional shares rather than a discretionary large buy.
- RSUs reported are restricted units that will be settled into common shares upon vesting; they are not currently free-trading shares.
- Purchases by directors can be informative, but DRIP-based purchases are often routine and part of compensation/dividend programs rather than a standalone vote of confidence.
