restricted stock units (RSUs) financial
"Represents an award of restricted stock units (RSUs) that is a contingent right to receive Class A Common Stock upon vesting."
Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a type of company promise to give employees shares of stock in the future, usually after certain conditions like working for a set time. They are like a gift promised today that you receive later, which can become valuable if the company's stock price goes up. RSUs matter because they are a way companies reward employees and can be a significant part of compensation.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin financial
"Subject to the achievement of certain performance conditions based on Advantage Cash Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, the PSUs are scheduled to vest..."
Adjusted EBITDA margin shows how much profit a company makes from its core operations, expressed as a percentage of its total revenue, after removing certain one-time or unusual expenses and income. It helps investors understand the company's true earning ability from regular business activities, making it easier to compare performance over time or with other companies. Think of it as measuring the efficiency of a business in turning sales into profits, excluding irregular adjustments.
