Restricted Share Units financial

"Reflects restricted share units that vested and settled into American Depositary Shares"

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.

American Depositary Shares financial

"vested and settled into American Depositary Shares ("ADSs"). Each ADS represents 8 ordinary 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.

contingent right financial

"Each restricted share unit represents a contingent right to receive one ADS"

vested financial

"The vesting reported herein was as of Apr 1, 2026. This award has fully vested"
