Key Terms

restricted stock, tax withholding obligation, Rule 16b-3(e), tax-withholding disposition

4 terms

restricted stock financial

"Represents shares of restricted stock withheld to satisfy the executive's tax withholding obligation"

Shares granted to an individual that carry limits on transfer or sale until certain conditions are met, such as staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance targets. Think of them as a locked gift that gradually opens; for investors they matter because they affect how many shares may enter the market later, signal management incentives and potential dilution, and reveal confidence in future company performance.

tax withholding obligation financial

"withheld to satisfy the executive's tax withholding obligation upon vesting of restricted stock"

Rule 16b-3(e) regulatory

"The deemed disposition of the withheld shares is exempt pursuant to Rule 16b-3(e)."

tax-withholding disposition financial

"transaction_action": "tax-withholding disposition""

A tax-withholding disposition is an event or transaction—such as selling or transferring securities, exercising options, or receiving compensation—that triggers a requirement to hold back part of the payment and remit it to tax authorities. It matters to investors because it reduces the cash they receive immediately and can change the timing and amount of taxable income, like a cashier taking a portion of your sale proceeds to pay taxes before you get the rest.
