Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") financial
"Includes 903 unvested Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") acquired pursuant to an original grant"
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.
weighted average price financial
"The price reported is a weighted average price. These shares were sold in multiple"
Weighted average price is the average price of a security where each trade or component is counted according to its size, so bigger trades pull the average more than smaller ones. Think of it like calculating the average cost of a grocery haul where items you bought more of have greater influence on the final per-item cost. Investors use it to understand the true average price paid or received, judge execution quality, and compare trading performance against market movement.
automatic dividend reinvestment plan financial
"Includes 114.851 shares acquired through an automatic dividend reinvestment plan administered"
Employee Stock Purchase Plan financial
"Includes 162.786 shares acquired under the issuer's Employee Stock Purchase Plan since"
An employee stock purchase plan is a company program that lets workers buy shares through small payroll deductions, often at a discount to the market price and after a set offering period. Think of it like a workplace savings plan that turns into ownership: it encourages employees to share in the company’s success and can create predictable buying or selling of stock that investors watch because it affects supply, demand and employee incentives.
