Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Ryman Hospitality Properties director Robert S. Prather Jr. reported updates to multiple restricted stock unit (RSU) awards tied to the company’s common stock. A footnote explains that vesting of these RSUs is deferred until he leaves the board, so they function as long-term equity compensation rather than immediately deliverable shares.
The filing also notes that, following a $1.20 dividend per share paid on April 15, 2026, Prather received additional RSUs. The number of new units was based on the dividend amount and the March 31, 2026 NYSE closing price of Ryman’s stock, effectively reinvesting the cash dividend into more RSUs instead of paying cash. These are routine, non‑market, compensation-related adjustments.
