Context
These are performance-based RSUs that became eligible to vest after corporate performance goals were achieved; actual vesting is still subject to the stated schedule and the executive’s continued service. This is an award/compensation event (not an open-market purchase or sale) and therefore is routine executive compensation rather than an immediate buy/sell signal.
