Key Details

• Transaction date and price: 2/3/2026; 5,124 units @ $38.06 (total $195,019).
• Shares owned after transaction: Not disclosed in the filing.
• Instrument and settlement: Deferred stock units (DSUs) — not immediate common shares; subject to vesting and settlement terms (see footnote).
• Vesting/settlement note (from filing): DSUs vest on the day before the first annual shareholders’ meeting after the grant, subject to continued service; if vested, they will be settled in shares on the first day of the seventh month after the director’s departure from the board.
• Filing timing: Form 4 filed Feb 4, 2026 for a Feb 3, 2026 grant — appears timely (Form 4s are typically due within 2 business days).

Context

• This grant is a routine director compensation award in the form of deferred stock units. DSUs represent a promise to issue shares later (subject to vesting and service conditions) rather than immediate share ownership or a market trade. Such grants are common for non-employee directors and do not by themselves indicate the director is buying or selling stock in the market.
