Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-05-19; Form 4 filed: 2026-05-21 (appears timely).
• Transaction type/code: Grant/Award (A).
• Units granted: 3,612 RSUs @ $0.00; reported dollar value $0.00.
• Vesting: RSUs vest on the earlier of the one‑year anniversary of the grant or the date of the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders.

Context

• RSUs are a form of compensation: they give the holder a future right to receive company shares if vesting conditions are met, so they are not an immediate purchase or sale. Grants to non‑employee directors are common as part of board compensation and are typically considered routine rather than a direct market sentiment signal.
