performance-based RSUs financial

"shares subject to performance-based RSUs granted in 2023"

Performance-based restricted stock units (RSUs) are promises to deliver company shares to employees only if the business meets specific goals, such as revenue, profit, stock-price targets, or strategic milestones. For investors, they matter because they change future share supply and align management incentives with company results—like a salesperson whose bonus only pays out when sales targets are hit—so they can affect earnings, dilution, and confidence in leadership.

underlying award agreement financial

"pursuant to the terms and conditions of the underlying award agreement"

vest financial

"which will vest on December 31, 2026"

A vest is the process by which an employee earns the right to receive certain benefits or ownership interests, such as stock or retirement funds, over time. It’s similar to earning a reward gradually, ensuring that the benefit becomes fully yours only after a set period or meeting specific conditions. This makes it important for investors because it determines when they can actually claim or use those benefits.
