- Transaction type code: A = Award/Grant (derivative).
Context RSUs are compensation awards that convert into shares (or cash equivalent) only when they vest or are exercised; they do not represent an immediate open‑market purchase or sale. Such grants are a routine form of executive pay and do not by themselves indicate the insider is buying or selling stock for personal investment reasons. When RSUs vest, they may be subject to tax withholding (often via share withholding) and will then increase the insider's share ownership.
