5 terms

Nqso (Right to Buy) financial

"Security title listed as "Nqso (Right to Buy)" for option exercises"

Dividend Equivalents (DEs) financial

"These shares include 68 Dividend Equivalents (DEs) granted pursuant to the Amgen Inc. plan"

Restricted Stock Units financial

"DEs are credited to the reporting person's unvested Restricted Stock Units and are paid out in shares"

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.

qualifying dividend reinvestment plan financial

"DEs granted pursuant to the Amgen Inc. plan and subject to a qualifying dividend reinvestment plan"

401(k) Plan financial

"These shares are acquired under the Company's 401(k) Plan and represent interests in the stock fund"

A 401(k) plan is a workplace retirement account that lets employees set aside part of their pay into a tax-advantaged savings pot, often with employers adding matching contributions — like a workplace piggy bank for future income. It matters to investors because the amount people save and how employers fund these plans influence consumer spending, corporate payroll costs and the flow of money into financial markets, which can affect stock prices and company valuations.
