Restricted Stock Unit financial
"security_title": "Restricted Stock Unit""
A restricted stock unit is a promise from a company to give an employee shares of stock after certain conditions are met, like staying with the company for a set amount of time. It’s like earning a bonus that turns into company stock once you’ve proven your commitment, making it a way to motivate and reward employees.
tax obligations financial
"surrendered to issuer to cover tax obligations of the 7,016 shares"
bonus financial
"These shares were issued pursuant to Mr. Auld's bonus earned for the six-months ended March 31, 2026."
vesting financial
"shares of DHI common stock issued upon the vesting of the restricted stock units"
Vesting is the process by which you earn full ownership of something, like company stock or a retirement benefit, over time. It’s like earning the right to keep a gift piece by piece the longer you stay with a company, making sure employees stay committed before they receive all the benefits.
derivative security financial
"transaction_code_description": "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.
