Power Integrations Reports Inducement Grants under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4)

Key Terms

restricted stock units financial

Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.

rsus financial

RSUs, or restricted stock units, are a form of company shares given to employees as part of their compensation. They are typically awarded with certain restrictions, such as a waiting period before they can be fully owned or sold, similar to earning a gift that becomes fully yours over time. For investors, RSUs can impact a company's stock offerings and reflect how much the company relies on stock-based incentives to attract and retain talent.

performance stock units financial

Performance stock units are a type of company award that grants employees shares of stock only if certain performance goals are met. They motivate employees to work toward specific company achievements, aligning their interests with those of shareholders. For investors, they can influence a company's future stock supply and reflect management’s confidence in reaching key targets.

nasdaq rule 5635(c)(4) regulatory

NASDAQ Rule 5635(c)(4) is a listing standard that requires a company to obtain shareholder approval before issuing a substantial number of new shares or convertible securities in certain financing or insider-related transactions that would materially dilute existing holders. It matters to investors because the vote gives shareholders a check on deals that could significantly change ownership stakes or voting power—like a homeowners’ association approving a major renovation that affects the whole neighborhood’s value.
