Context Restricted stock units are a deferred-compensation award: they represent a conditional right to receive shares in the future if vesting conditions are met (here, full vesting at the 2027 annual meeting). This grant is a compensation award rather than a market purchase or sale, so it should be viewed as part of director pay rather than a direct signal of buying or selling intent. Note that Form 4 filings are generally required within two business days of a transaction; this filing shows a five-day gap between the grant and the filing date.
