Context
- RSU awards are a common form of executive compensation intended to align management with long-term shareholder value; they are not an immediate cash investment signal like a market purchase.
- These RSUs are subject to vesting over the next two years; until vested they cannot be sold and do not represent immediately liquid shares.
