Restricted Stock Unit financial
"Each Restricted Stock Unit ("RSU") represents a contingent right to receive one share"
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.
VWAP financial
"the VWAP of the shares exceeds $11.50 for a period of at least 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days"
VWAP, or Volume-Weighted Average Price, is a way to find the average price of a stock throughout the trading day, giving more importance to times when more shares are traded. It helps traders see the typical price and decide whether a stock is expensive or cheap compared to its average, similar to finding the average speed during a trip by giving more weight to times when you traveled faster or slower.
