Employee Stock Purchase Plan financial
"under Employee Stock Purchase Plan"
An employee stock purchase plan is a company program that lets workers buy shares through small payroll deductions, often at a discount to the market price and after a set offering period. Think of it like a workplace savings plan that turns into ownership: it encourages employees to share in the company’s success and can create predictable buying or selling of stock that investors watch because it affects supply, demand and employee incentives.
subscription agreement financial
"exercise of subscription agreement"
A subscription agreement is a legal contract in which an investor agrees to buy a specific number of a company’s shares or other securities under set terms, including price, payment method and conditions for closing the sale. It matters to investors because it legally locks in their purchase and the company’s obligations, determines ownership percentage and any investor rights, and can include conditions or promises that affect future control or returns—like signing a detailed purchase order for equity.
restricted stock unit financial
"Each restricted stock unit represents the right to receive"
A restricted stock unit is a promise from a company to give an employee shares of stock after certain conditions are met, like staying with the company for a set amount of time. It’s like earning a bonus that turns into company stock once you’ve proven your commitment, making it a way to motivate and reward employees.
average annual adjusted EBITDA financial
"depends on Astronics Corp.'s average annual adjusted EBITDA"
