Context

RSU grants to directors are common compensation and represent a promise of shares (or their cash value) at vesting rather than an immediate market purchase. Such awards do not by themselves indicate the insider’s short‑term view on the stock; they reflect routine compensation and alignment with shareholder interests upon vesting.
