Context
This was a derivative award tied to director compensation (deferred stock units) rather than a cash purchase or sale. Deferred stock units convert to common shares after separation from service and may reflect routine compensation mechanics (vesting and dividend equivalents) rather than a trading signal about the company’s stock.
