Derivative activity
- Wall acquired an aggregate 221.888 dividend equivalent rights (DERs), automatically accruing from the company’s 2023-2025 restricted stock unit (RSU) grants.
- The grants break down as: 11.793 DERs (2023 RSUs), 22.983 DERs (2024 RSUs) and 187.112 DERs (2025 RSUs). Transaction code “A” indicates these were acquisitions made without open-market consideration.

- No common shares were sold or bought, suggesting the CEO’s equity exposure to EXPD common stock is unchanged.
- Dividend equivalent rights simply mirror cash dividends on outstanding RSUs; they vest proportionally with the underlying RSUs and carry no immediate cash outlay.
