Restricted Stock Units financial

"Amount includes 2,955 of unvested Restricted Stock Units."

Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.

irrevocable trust financial

"These shares are held by an irrevocable trust over which Mr. Richmond"

An irrevocable trust is a legal arrangement where an owner transfers assets into a separate entity managed by a trustee and gives up the power to modify or reclaim those assets. For investors it matters because putting stock or other holdings into such a trust can change who controls and benefits from the assets, affect taxes and creditor protection, and influence how easy it is to sell or value those holdings—like placing valuables in a locked safe overseen by someone else.

pecuniary interest financial

"disclaims beneficial ownership of these shares except to the extent of his pecuniary interest"
