restricted stock units ("RSUs") financial
"Reflects restricted stock units ("RSUs") withheld in satisfaction of the Reporting Person's tax withholding liability."
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.
tax withholding liability financial
"RSUs withheld in satisfaction of the Reporting Person's tax withholding liability."
Long-Term Incentive Plan financial
"granted to the Reporting Person on March 31, 2023 pursuant to the Excelerate Energy, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan"
A long-term incentive plan is a company program that pays executives or employees with stock, options, or cash tied to multi-year performance goals, where the rewards become theirs only after meeting conditions over time. Think of it as a delayed bonus or retirement-style reward that aligns employees’ interests with shareholders by encouraging them to boost long-term value; investors watch these plans because they affect pay costs, share dilution and management incentives.
Class A Common Stock financial
"security_title: "Class A Common Stock""
Class A common stock is a category of a company’s shares that carries a specific set of ownership rights—most commonly defined voting power and claims on dividends—set out in the company’s charter. For investors it matters because the class determines how much influence you have over corporate decisions, the share’s likely dividend and trading behavior, and how it compares in value to other share classes, like choosing a particular seat with different privileges at the company’s decision-making table.
