time-based vesting financial
"This option is subject to time-based vesting."
Time-based vesting is a schedule that gives employees or contractors ownership of granted stock or options gradually as they remain with a company, like unlocking rewards in a loyalty program the longer you stick around. For investors, it matters because it affects future share supply, management incentives and staff retention — all of which can influence company performance and dilution of existing shareholders.
Annual Meeting of Stockholders financial
"the date of the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Issuer"
exercise price financial
"conversion_or_exercise_price: 9.0800"
The exercise price is the fixed amount at which you can buy or sell an asset, like a stock, when using an options contract. It matters because it helps determine whether exercising the option will be profitable or not, depending on the current market price. Think of it as the set price you agree on today to buy or sell later.
expiration date financial
"expiration_date: 2036-06-23T00:00:00.000Z"
The expiration date is the deadline after which a financial contract, such as an option or a futures agreement, is no longer valid or can be exercised. It matters to investors because it determines the timeframe during which they can take action or benefit from the contract, similar to how a coupon or a food item has a limited period of usefulness. Once the expiration date passes, the contract loses its value or ability to be used.
