Context
- These awards are grants (not purchases or sales). PSUs are performance-contingent and RSUs vest based on service—they do not represent immediate cash proceeds unless and until settled and/or sold.
- Recording $0.00 per share is normal for awards; the economic value depends on future vesting, performance results, and share price at settlement.
- For retail investors: awards indicate company compensation decisions but are not direct buy/sell signals.
