Context
RSUs are a common form of equity compensation; each RSU represents the contingent right to receive one share of common stock upon vesting. Because this is a grant (not a purchase or sale), it does not by itself signal a buy/sell decision by the insider—value is realized only if and when the RSUs vest and are converted to shares.
