Key Terms

4 terms

Performance Stock Option financial

"The performance stock option to purchase up to 52,250 shares of ESAB common stock vests in three tranches"

performance criteria financial

"based on ESAB's satisfaction of certain performance criteria during the four-year period"

grant date financial

"commencing on the second anniversary of the grant date and ending on the sixth anniversary of the grant date"

The grant date is the day a company formally gives an employee or contractor the right to receive stock-based compensation, such as stock options or restricted shares. It matters to investors because it fixes key terms—like the price, the start of the ownership clock, and when the award will affect the company’s financial statements and share count—so it can influence dilution, reported expenses, and potential future selling pressure.
