"Represents a grant of restricted shares of Common Stock that will vest in full on July 11, 2027"
Restricted shares of common stock are company shares that cannot be sold or transferred until specific conditions are met, such as a set time period, performance targets, or regulatory approvals; they are often granted to founders, employees or early investors. They matter to investors because when the restrictions lift those shares can enter the market and increase the supply, potentially diluting existing holders and changing the stock’s price, similar to a locked faucet being opened and more water joining the flow.

FAQ

What did AeroVironment (AVAV) director Charles Thomas Burbage report in this Form 4?
He reported receiving two grants of restricted Common Stock as compensation. One grant covers 1,047 shares, and another covers 130 shares, both at $0.00 per share, reflecting equity-based director compensation rather than open-market purchases or sales.

How many AeroVironment (AVAV) shares were granted to the director in total?
The director received a total of 1,177 restricted Common Stock shares. This consists of 1,047 shares as a regular compensation grant and 130 shares as a special grant, both structured as awards that vest over time rather than immediate cash transactions.

When do the new AeroVironment (AVAV) restricted stock grants vest?
Both restricted stock grants are scheduled to vest in full on July 11, 2027. Vesting is contingent on the director’s continued service to AeroVironment through that date, linking the compensation directly to ongoing board service and long-term alignment.

What happens to the AeroVironment (AVAV) restricted shares if the director’s service ends early?
If his service ends before July 11, 2027, a prorated portion of each restricted stock grant will vest immediately. The remaining unvested shares would not vest, tying the ultimate number of earned shares to the length of his service period.

Did the AeroVironment (AVAV) director buy or sell shares on the open market in this filing?
No open-market buys or sells were reported. Both transactions are coded as grant or award acquisitions at $0.00 per share, indicating equity compensation awards rather than discretionary trading activity in AeroVironment’s Common Stock by the director.
