Insights

Equity Compensation Analyst

Large, performance-based equity grant to Cadre’s president with long-dated hurdles.

The filing shows Brad Williams, President of Cadre Holdings, receiving substantial stock options and restricted stock units as compensation. The options cover 136,000 and 109,500 shares at an exercise price of $28.75, while RSUs cover 82,000 and 57,500 shares.

These awards vest only if the stock’s volume-weighted average price reaches at least $60.00 or $80.00 for 20 consecutive trading days on or before June 16, 2033, and at least three years have elapsed since grant. This structure links potential value to long-term share performance rather than immediate tenure.

Because the transactions are grants (Form 4 code A) and not open-market purchases or sales, they mainly update the president’s incentive mix. There is no direct cash flow in this filing, and the investment significance depends on how these performance conditions align with future company results.

Restricted Stock Units financial

"Represents an award of restricted stock units granted under Cadre Holdings, Inc.'s 2021 Stock Incentive Plan"

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.

2021 Stock Incentive Plan financial

"restricted stock units granted under Cadre Holdings, Inc.'s (the "Issuer") 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan")"

volume-weighted average trading price financial

"will vest only if, on or before June 16, 2033, the Common Stock achieves a volume-weighted average trading price"

Volume-weighted average trading price (VWAP) is the average price of a stock over a trading period, where each trade’s price is weighted by how many shares changed hands, so big trades move the average more than small ones. Investors use VWAP as a benchmark to tell whether they bought or sold at a good price compared with the market’s trading activity—like checking if your grocery bill was close to the store’s typical daily average when many customers shopped.

VWAP financial

"achieves a VWAP of at least $60.00 per share over a 20 consecutive trading day measurement period"

VWAP, or Volume-Weighted Average Price, is a way to find the average price of a stock throughout the trading day, giving more importance to times when more shares are traded. It helps traders see the typical price and decide whether a stock is expensive or cheap compared to its average, similar to finding the average speed during a trip by giving more weight to times when you traveled faster or slower.

exercise price financial

"conversion_or_exercise_price": "28.7500""

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.
