Context

  • RSUs are compensation awards, not open-market purchases — they represent a promise of shares if and when they vest. They aren’t immediately tradable shares and therefore don’t directly signal a buy or sell decision by the insider.
  • Staggered vesting (near-term and long-term) is commonly used to retain executives; investors typically view grants as part of compensation rather than a direct endorsement of the stock price.
