• Shares owned after transaction: Not disclosed in the provided filing excerpt.
• Footnote: These units are dividend equivalent units (DEUs) accrued on previously granted RSUs and/or DSUs; each DEU represents the right to one share subject to the original award’s vesting/settlement terms. Numbers rounded to 4 decimal places.

Context
DEUs are bookkeeping units that track dividend equivalents on outstanding restricted or deferred stock awards; they do not represent immediate, vested shares or cash until the underlying RSUs/DSUs vest and settle. This is a routine director compensation entry and relatively small in value (~$5.3k), so it typically reflects standard compensation mechanics rather than a directional insider market signal.
