Restricted stock units financial
"These are time-based restricted stock units (RSUs) granted to the reporting person on May 14, 2026"
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 Omnibus Incentive Plan financial
"under Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended and restated"
vesting financial
"RSU's vest and are no longer subject to forfeiture on the earlier of the first anniversary"
Vesting is the process by which you earn full ownership of something, like company stock or a retirement benefit, over time. It’s like earning the right to keep a gift piece by piece the longer you stay with a company, making sure employees stay committed before they receive all the benefits.
forfeiture financial
"RSU's vest and are no longer subject to forfeiture on the earlier of the first anniversary"
tax-withholding disposition financial
"Payment of exercise price or tax liability by delivering securities"
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.
