A Deferred Share Unit (DSU) is a right to receive value equal to one Ovintiv common share. DSUs earn additional dividend-equivalent units over time and, for directors, are typically settled after leaving the Board rather than being traded immediately.

Why did Ralph Izzo receive 41 Deferred Share Units from Ovintiv (OVV)?

Does the Ovintiv (OVV) Form 4 show a market purchase or sale by Ralph Izzo?

No, the Form 4 shows a grant of 41 DSUs as compensation, not a market trade. The transaction is coded as an acquisition award, reflecting dividend-equivalent units rather than an open-market purchase or sale of Ovintiv common stock.
