Employee Stock Purchase Plan financial

"under the terms of the Castellum, Inc. 2025 Employee Stock Purchase Plan"

An employee stock purchase plan is a company program that lets workers buy shares through small payroll deductions, often at a discount to the market price and after a set offering period. Think of it like a workplace savings plan that turns into ownership: it encourages employees to share in the company’s success and can create predictable buying or selling of stock that investors watch because it affects supply, demand and employee incentives.

per share purchase price financial

"The per share purchase price was calculated"

The per share purchase price is the amount of money paid to buy each individual share of a company's stock. It helps investors understand how much they are paying for a single unit of ownership in the company. This figure is important because it influences investment decisions and reflects the value placed on the company at the time of purchase.
