Inducement grants are special awards of shares or stock options given to new employees to encourage them to join a company or accept a new role. They act like a welcome bonus, providing an extra incentive to attract talent. For investors, these grants can impact a company's costs and share structure, influencing the value of their investments.
exercise pricefinancial
The exercise price is the fixed amount at which you can buy or sell an asset, like a stock, when using an options contract. It matters because it helps determine whether exercising the option will be profitable or not, depending on the current market price. Think of it as the set price you agree on today to buy or sell later.

Vesting is the process by which you earn full ownership of something, like company stock or a retirement benefit, over time. It’s like earning the right to keep a gift piece by piece the longer you stay with a company, making sure employees stay committed before they receive all the benefits.
