American Depositary Shares financial

"American Depositary Shares representing ordinary shares, no par value per share"

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.

Stock Option Exercise financial

"Stock Option Exercise | BioNTech SE | 11/21/2022"

A stock option exercise is the act of using a previously granted right to buy shares of a company's stock at a specific, predetermined price by paying that price and receiving the shares. It matters to investors because exercising changes who owns the shares (which can dilute existing ownership), can trigger taxable events and shift potential gains or losses, and affects voting power and the company’s outstanding share count—like turning a voucher into an actual product that becomes part of circulating supply.
