Restricted Stock Units financial
"Represents dividend equivalent units accrued with respect to time-vested restricted stock units"
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.
dividend equivalent units financial
"Represents dividend equivalent units ("DEUs") accrued upon the payment of a dividend"
time-vested financial
"with respect to time-vested restricted stock units ("RSUs") of Amkor Technology, Inc."
Time-vested describes a right—such as stock options, restricted shares, or pension benefits—that becomes fully owned by an individual only after they have waited for or worked through a specified period. For investors, it matters because these delayed ownership rules affect when insiders or employees can sell shares, which influences share supply, executive incentives, and the timing of potential stock dilution or insider-driven stock sales.
RSUs financial
"with respect to RSUs of the Issuer granted to the Reporting Person on May 15, 2025"
RSUs, or restricted stock units, are a form of company shares given to employees as part of their compensation. They are typically awarded with certain restrictions, such as a waiting period before they can be fully owned or sold, similar to earning a gift that becomes fully yours over time. For investors, RSUs can impact a company's stock offerings and reflect how much the company relies on stock-based incentives to attract and retain talent.
