• Director now directly beneficially owns 178,312 shares, increasing skin in the game

Insights

Corporate Governance Analyst

Director received sizable RSU award, aligning interests with shareholders.

The grant of 44,445 restricted stock units to a non-employee director increases the director's stake and links compensation to future share performance. Such grants are commonly used to align board members with long-term shareholder value without immediate cash outflow.

Key dependencies include vesting terms and any blackout periods that determine when the units convert to shares; those specifics are not disclosed in this filing. Monitor subsequent disclosures for vesting schedule and any sale of shares after vesting within the next 12–36 months.

Equity Markets Specialist

The transaction is a non-cash equity award with modest direct share impact.

The reported addition of 44,445 RSUs increases outstanding potential shares but the filing reports 178,312 directly owned shares and an indirect position of 270,276 by Palm Global. Without company-wide share counts or market-cap details, the absolute impact on share supply and EPS is unclear from this form alone.

Investors should watch for company-level share count updates or proxy disclosures that quantify dilution and for any filings showing conversion/vesting events over the next 12 months.
