  1. F1. Each restricted stock unit ("RSU") represents the right to receive, at settlement, one share of common stock. This transaction represents the settlement of RSUs in shares of common stock on their scheduled vesting date.
  2. F2. Shares withheld by Apple to satisfy tax withholding requirements on vesting of RSUs. No shares were sold.
  3. F3. This award was granted on October 1, 2023, for a target number of 58,408 RSUs. The award settled on October 1, 2026, applying a percentage of the target number of RSUs that was determined based on Apple's total shareholder return ("TSR") relative to the other companies in the S&P 500 from the first day of Apple's fiscal year 2024 and ending with the last day of Apple's fiscal year 2026.
  4. F4. TSR is calculated based on the change in a company's stock price during the performance period, taking into account any dividends paid during that period, which are assumed to be reinvested in the stock. In accordance with the terms of the award, the beginning value used for calculating TSR is the average closing stock price for the first 20 trading days of the performance period. Apple's beginning value was calculated to be $175.08. Similarly, the ending value used for calculating TSR is the average closing price for the final 20 trading days of the performance period. Apple's ending value was calculated to be $333.82.
  5. F5. This award provided that if Apple's relative TSR performance was ranked at or above the 85th percentile for companies in the S&P 500 for the performance period, 200% of the target number of RSUs vest. If Apple's performance was ranked at or above the 55th percentile, 100% of the target number of RSUs vest. If Apple's performance was ranked at or above the 25th percentile, 25% of the target number of RSUs vest, and if Apple's performance was ranked below the 25th percentile, 0% of the target number of RSUs vest. If Apple's performance was between these levels, the portion of the RSUs that vest would be determined on a straight-line basis (i.e., linearly interpolated) between the two nearest vesting percentages.
  6. F6. Apple's TSR for the three-year performance period was 90.67%, which ranked 115 of the 480 companies that were included in the S&P 500 for the performance period and placed Apple in the 76.20th percentile. Therefore, 99,878 restricted stock units subject to performance requirements vested.

restricted stock unit financial
"Each restricted stock unit ("RSU") represents the right to receive"
A restricted stock unit is a promise from a company to give an employee shares of stock after certain conditions are met, like staying with the company for a set amount of time. It’s like earning a bonus that turns into company stock once you’ve proven your commitment, making it a way to motivate and reward employees.
total shareholder return financial
"total shareholder return ("TSR") relative to the other companies in the S&P 500"
Total shareholder return is the overall gain an investor gets from owning a stock, combining changes in the share price plus any cash payouts like dividends, and assuming those payouts are reinvested in more shares. Investors use it like a single score that shows the true return on their investment—similar to checking both the growth of a savings account and the interest earned—to compare how well different companies or investments perform over time.
