Context RSUs are a form of deferred equity compensation that convert to shares only after vesting; they do not represent immediately tradeable shares. Grants like this are common for executives and are intended for retention and alignment with long-term shareholder value. Because the units vest over time, this award alone should not be taken as an immediate market signal.
