Context

• Dividend Equivalent RSUs represent awards made in lieu of cash dividends on existing RSUs; they are not an open-market purchase or sale and do not by themselves signal insider buying or selling intent.
• For retail investors, grants and dividend-equivalent awards are routine compensation/corporate actions for insiders and should be interpreted differently than open-market purchases (which are often viewed as a stronger positive signal).
