Key Terms

4 terms

restricted stock units ("RSUs") financial

"Represents restricted stock units ("RSUs") issued to the Reporting Person as consideration for service on the Issuer's Board of Directors."

Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a company promise to give an employee shares of stock (or cash equivalent) in the future, but only after certain conditions—usually staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance goals—are met. Investors watch RSUs because when they vest they increase the number of shares outstanding and can lead insiders to sell shares, affecting share price, company dilution and the true cost of employee pay.

reinvestment of cash dividends financial

"Reinvestment of cash dividends on January 16, 2026."

Board of Directors financial

"issued to the Reporting Person as consideration for service on the Issuer's Board of Directors."

The Board of Directors is a group of people chosen by a company's owners to help make big decisions and oversee how the company is run. They act like a team of advisors or managers, making sure the company stays on track and meets its goals. Their choices can influence the company's success and how it grows.
