Diversified Energy Co (DEC) director receives 10,187 RSU grant and holds 13,956 shares

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Diversified Energy Co (DEC) reported a change in insider holdings on a Form 4. A company director received a grant of 10,187 restricted stock units (RSUs) of common stock on January 5, 2026 at a price of $0, reflecting an equity award rather than a market purchase.
