• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing excerpt.
• Approval: Grants approved by the Management Development and Compensation Committee on 1/13/2026 (see footnotes).
• Filing timeliness: Form 4 was filed 2026-01-21 (five days after the transaction date), which appears late relative to the SEC’s typical two-business-day reporting requirement.

Context
RSUs are compensation awards that convert to shares at vesting (no cash paid at grant). These are standard executive compensation events, not open-market purchases or sales, and therefore are routine rather than a direct market sentiment signal. The filing’s late submission is a compliance note for investors tracking timely insider disclosures.
