Underlying security American Depositary Shares Underlying for both options and RSUs
Restricted Share Units financial
"The RSUs vest in one installment on June 29, 2027."
Restricted share units (RSUs) are a promise from a company to give an employee or service provider actual shares or cash equal to the shares after certain conditions are met, typically staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance targets. Think of them like a time-locked gift card that becomes usable only after you’ve earned it. For investors, RSUs matter because they align employee incentives with company performance and can increase the number of shares outstanding over time, diluting existing ownership and affecting earnings per share.
Share Option (Right to Buy financial
"Share Option (Right to Buy) granted covering 47,500 ADS."
American Depositary Shares financial
"Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's American Depositary Shares."
American depositary shares (ADSs) are a way for investors in the United States to buy shares of foreign companies without dealing with international markets directly. They represent ownership in a foreign company's stock and are traded on U.S. stock exchanges, making it easier for American investors to buy, sell, and own parts of companies from around the world.
exercise price financial
"Share options have an exercise price of $1.61 per share."
The exercise price is the fixed amount at which you can buy or sell an asset, like a stock, when using an options contract. It matters because it helps determine whether exercising the option will be profitable or not, depending on the current market price. Think of it as the set price you agree on today to buy or sell later.
