Restricted Stock Units financial

"Restricted Stock Units ("RSU") granted"

Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.

fully vest financial

"fully vest after three years"

settlement financial

"at settlement, one share of common stock"

Settlement is the process of completing a financial transaction, like buying or selling a stock, by transferring money and ownership between parties. It ensures that both the buyer gets the asset and the seller gets paid, making the deal official. Without settlement, the transaction wouldn't be finalized or legally recognized.
