Context
RSUs are compensation awards that convert into stock (or cash) only upon vesting and often include dividend equivalents; they do not represent an immediate purchase of stock. Because these awards vest over multi-year schedules, they are intended as retention/compensation and are not a direct market purchase signal. The filing appears timely (filed two days after the grant date), and no sales or exercises occurred in this report.
