Insights
TL;DR: Director received small accruals of dividend equivalent rights tied to deferred units and RSUs; routine insider compensation event.
The Form 4 documents a non-cash accrual of dividend equivalent rights on 09/18/2025 for a board director, not an open-market purchase or sale. Each dividend equivalent right converts to the economic equivalent of one common share when the underlying deferred share units or restricted share units vest or pay out. The reported increments—87, 9 and 6 rights—are modest and recorded as direct beneficial ownership additions, reflecting compensation mechanics rather than trading activity. This is a governance/compensation disclosure with limited immediate market impact.
TL;DR: Minor increase in direct beneficial ownership from dividend equivalents; no price or market transaction reported.
The filing does not show any purchase price or open-market transaction code; it reports accruals (transaction code A) of dividend equivalent rights that are contingent on the underlying equity awards. The beneficial ownership totals after the accruals are explicitly listed as 4,464, 62 and 13 common shares for the respective items. Because these are compensation-related accruals with $0 price and contingent settlement, they do not represent cash outflow or liquidity events and are unlikely to materially change valuation metrics.
