Context
This is a standard director compensation grant (RSUs) to a non-employee board member and does not represent an open-market buy or sell. RSUs are not immediate cash or stock—vesting and settlement rules govern when the director receives shares. Such awards are common for board compensation and do not, by themselves, indicate trading sentiment.
