restricted share units financial
"Reflects the vesting and release of 1/3 of a time-based conditional award of 5,928 restricted share units ("RSU") granted under the CRH plc Equity Incentive Plan"
Restricted share units (RSUs) are a promise from a company to give an employee or service provider actual shares or cash equal to the shares after certain conditions are met, typically staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance targets. Think of them like a time-locked gift card that becomes usable only after you’ve earned it. For investors, RSUs matter because they align employee incentives with company performance and can increase the number of shares outstanding over time, diluting existing ownership and affecting earnings per share.
Equity Incentive Plan financial
"restricted share units ("RSU") granted under the CRH plc Equity Incentive Plan (the "EIP") on May 13, 2025"
An equity incentive plan is a program that gives employees, executives or directors the right to receive company stock or options to buy stock as part of their pay. Think of it as offering slices of future company profit to motivate people to boost long‑term performance; for investors it matters because it can align employee goals with shareholder value but also increases the number of shares outstanding, which can dilute existing ownership.
withholding tax liabilities financial
"Mandatory sale of sufficient Ordinary Shares to cover applicable withholding tax liabilities arising in connection with the aforementioned award."
volume-weighted average price financial
"The reported price represents the volume-weighted average price of shares sold."
Volume-weighted average price (VWAP) is the average price of a stock over a specific time period where each trade is weighted by the number of shares traded, so larger trades influence the average more than small ones. Investors and traders use VWAP as a reference point to judge whether trades are happening at relatively good or poor prices—like checking the average price paid for an item at a market where bulk purchases count more than single-item buys.
dividend equivalents financial
"including the award of 27 additional Ordinary Shares as dividend equivalents"
Payments tied to employee or contractor equity awards that mirror the cash dividends paid on the company’s stock; they give the holder the same economic benefit as owning the shares without transferring actual shares—often paid in cash or additional award units when the award becomes payable. Investors care because these payments affect a company’s compensation costs, cash flow and potential share dilution, and they signal how management is being rewarded and aligned with shareholders.
