restricted stock units ("RSUs") financial
"Represents that grant of restricted stock units ("RSUs")."
Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a company promise to give an employee shares of stock (or cash equivalent) in the future, but only after certain conditions—usually staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance goals—are met. Investors watch RSUs because when they vest they increase the number of shares outstanding and can lead insiders to sell shares, affecting share price, company dilution and the true cost of employee pay.

trading days financial
"in each case for a period of five consecutive trading days."
Trading days are the specific days when a stock exchange is open and buying and selling of securities can occur, excluding weekends and exchange-declared holidays. Investors use trading days to measure performance, calculate settlement deadlines and time-sensitive events—think of them as the business hours calendar for markets, where returns, volumes and deadlines are counted only on days the market is operating.
