4 terms

Restricted Stock Units financial

"On May 10, 2023, the Reporting Person was granted 22,606 RSUs, vesting in three substantially equal annual installments"

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.

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.

derivative security financial

"Exercise or conversion of derivative security"

A derivative security is a financial contract whose value comes from the price or performance of something else, such as a stock, bond, commodity, or market index. For investors it acts like an insurance policy or a wager: it can be used to protect against losses, lock in prices, or amplify gains and losses, so it can change a portfolio’s risk and potential return without owning the underlying asset directly.

common share financial

"Each restricted stock unit ("RSU") represents a contingent right to receive one common share of Cronos Group Inc."

A common share is a type of ownership in a company that gives the holder a claim to a portion of the company’s profits and assets. It often comes with voting rights, allowing shareholders to participate in decisions about the company’s direction. For investors, owning common shares can mean potential for growth and income, but also involves a higher level of risk compared to other types of investments.
