Context
- RSU grants are compensation awards, not open-market purchases or sales. They vest over time and convert into ordinary shares only upon vesting, so the reported $0 acquisition price reflects the contingent nature of the award rather than market value. This type of filing signals executive compensation alignment rather than an immediate bullish or bearish market action.
