Insights

Corporate Governance Analyst

Routine director compensation increased holdings modestly via DSUs.

What it means: The report documents standard deferred-compensation mechanics: 53.9884 DSUs from dividend reinvestment and 212.8954 DSUs received in lieu of fees, raising total reported beneficial ownership to 5,413.1984 shares.

Why it matters: These are non-cash, non-exercisable units that convert to common stock on termination, so they slightly increase potential future dilution and align director pay with shareholder outcomes without immediate share issuance.
