Context
- RSUs are a form of equity compensation that convert to shares only upon vesting and thus do not represent immediate open-market buying or selling. Grants to directors are commonly used for compensation and retention; the award itself does not necessarily indicate a purchase or sale intent. The filing also shows indirect holdings through investment funds over which Jacobs has control, so reported ownership changes may reflect fund actions rather than personal trading.
