Restricted Share Units financial
"Each unit represents a contingent right to receive one common share or an equivalent amount of cash"
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.
withholding taxes financial
"Sales to cover withholding taxes upon vesting of Restricted Share Units ("RSUs")"
Withholding taxes are amounts a payer or government takes out of payments — such as wages, interest, or dividends — before the recipient gets the money, functioning like a cashier keeping part of a bill to pay taxes on your behalf. For investors this matters because it reduces the cash they actually receive, affects net returns and yield calculations, and may require additional paperwork or treaty claims to recover or offset the withheld amount against final tax bills.
weighted average price financial
"The price reported in Column 4 is a weighted average price"
Weighted average price is the average price of a security where each trade or component is counted according to its size, so bigger trades pull the average more than smaller ones. Think of it like calculating the average cost of a grocery haul where items you bought more of have greater influence on the final per-item cost. Investors use it to understand the true average price paid or received, judge execution quality, and compare trading performance against market movement.
