Class A common stock financial
"Shares of the Issuer's Class A common stock were acquired by Wilks Brothers, LLC"
Class A common stock is a category of a company’s shares that carries a specific set of ownership rights—most commonly defined voting power and claims on dividends—set out in the company’s charter. For investors it matters because the class determines how much influence you have over corporate decisions, the share’s likely dividend and trading behavior, and how it compares in value to other share classes, like choosing a particular seat with different privileges at the company’s decision-making table.
volume-weighted average price financial
"determined by dividing the applicable services fee by the 10-day volume-weighted average price"
Volume-weighted average price (VWAP) is the average price of a stock over a specific time period where each trade is weighted by the number of shares traded, so larger trades influence the average more than small ones. Investors and traders use VWAP as a reference point to judge whether trades are happening at relatively good or poor prices—like checking the average price paid for an item at a market where bulk purchases count more than single-item buys.
pecuniary interest financial
"disclaims beneficial ownership of all equity securities reported herein except to the extent of such person's respective pecuniary interest"
