weighted average price financial
"The price reported is a weighted average price."
Weighted average price is the average price of a security where each trade or component is counted according to its size, so bigger trades pull the average more than smaller ones. Think of it like calculating the average cost of a grocery haul where items you bought more of have greater influence on the final per-item cost. Investors use it to understand the true average price paid or received, judge execution quality, and compare trading performance against market movement.

service conditions financial
"3,992,269 shares issuable based upon satisfaction of service conditions..."
performance goals financial
"5,883,140 shares issuable upon attainment of both performance goals and satisfaction of service conditions..."
Performance goals are specific, measurable targets a company sets for financial results, operational milestones, or individual roles—examples include revenue, profit, production levels, or completion of a project. They matter to investors because meeting or missing these targets influences management pay, future forecasts, deal-related payments and market confidence; think of them as a scoreboard that helps outsiders judge whether the business is performing as promised.
