Key Terms

equity awards financial

Equity awards are payments to employees or directors made in the form of company stock or rights to buy stock later, serving as a way to share ownership rather than cash. For investors, they matter because they align staff incentives with company performance, can increase the number of shares outstanding over time (which can reduce each share’s claim on profits), and create compensation costs that affect reported earnings.

inducement incentive plan financial

An inducement incentive plan is a program that gives stock, options, or other pay tied to company shares to new hires as a lure to join the business. Think of it like a signing bonus paid in future ownership instead of cash. Investors watch these plans because they dilute existing shareholders, change management incentives, and signal how aggressively a company must recruit talent to grow, which can affect future value.
