4 terms

cliff vest financial

"These shares cliff vest on the first anniversary of the grant date."

A cliff vest is a schedule for stock options or restricted shares where no ownership rights are earned until a fixed date, after which a set portion becomes fully owned all at once — like a probation period that suddenly unlocks pay. Investors watch cliff vests because they influence when insiders can sell shares, affect staff retention and dilution timing, and help predict short-term changes in a company’s shareholder makeup.

Stock Option (Right to Buy) financial

"Options granted pursuant to Cintas Corporation's 2016 Amended and Restated Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan."

exercise price financial

"Options covering 1,648 common shares at an exercise price of $212.81"

The exercise price is the fixed amount at which you can buy or sell an asset, like a stock, when using an options contract. It matters because it helps determine whether exercising the option will be profitable or not, depending on the current market price. Think of it as the set price you agree on today to buy or sell later.
