Context
Restricted stock and option grants are common executive compensation tools; the restricted stock award represents immediate equity subject to vesting, while the 2025 entry is a derivative (option) that must vest and be exercised (with any required payment of strike price) before converting to shares. Such awards do not, by themselves, indicate buying or selling intent in the open market.
