Johnson David Edward 4

What Happened
David E. Johnson, a director of Diversified Energy Co. (DEC), was granted 276 restricted stock units (RSUs) on 2026-06-30. The RSUs were recorded at an acquisition price of $0.00, reflecting that they were issued as dividend equivalent awards rather than a cash purchase.

Context
These RSUs are awards (not open-market purchases or sales) and typically reflect compensation or dividend-equivalent accruals rather than a direct market signal. RSUs convert to common stock when they vest; here a portion is noted to vest on January 5, 2027, if the director remains in service.
