Restricted Stock Unit financial
""security_title": "Restricted Stock Unit""
A restricted stock unit is a promise from a company to give an employee shares of stock after certain conditions are met, like staying with the company for a set amount of time. It’s like earning a bonus that turns into company stock once you’ve proven your commitment, making it a way to motivate and reward employees.

Form 3 regulatory
"INSIDER FILING DATA (Form 3):"
Form 3 is the initial public filing that officers, directors and large shareholders must submit to report their ownership of a company’s securities when they become insiders. It acts like an opening inventory sheet that gives investors a starting point to see who holds significant stakes and to spot later trades or potential conflicts of interest, helping assess insider confidence and transparency.
