Context

Restricted stock awards are compensation/retention grants that typically vest over time and may be forfeitable until vesting; they are not the same as an open-market purchase (which some investors view as a stronger positive signal). This filing reports the grant itself and does not indicate any sale, exercise, or immediate disposition of shares.
