Context
RSU grants are a common form of director compensation and typically vest over time or based on continued service; they are not an immediate cash investment or sale. These awards do not, by themselves, indicate the director is buying or selling stock for investment reasons—they represent deferred equity compensation that will convert to shares if vesting conditions are met.
