restricted stock units financial
"Shares withheld to pay taxes applicable to vesting of restricted stock units previously awarded..."
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.

"previously awarded pursuant to the Amended and Restated 2018 Equity Incentive Plan."
antidilution provisions financial
"Includes 385,026 RSUs and/or shares awarded... pursuant to the antidilution provisions of the RSU awards..."
RSU awards financial
"antidilution provisions of the RSU awards granted to the reporting person on September 29, 2025."
RSU awards are promises by a company to give employees actual shares of stock (or cash equal to their value) after certain conditions are met, typically continued employment over a set period or hitting performance goals. Think of them like stock paid in installments that become yours over time; they matter to investors because they affect future share count, executive incentives and company expenses, which can dilute existing shareholders and influence management decisions.
