Key Terms

3 terms
restricted stock units ("RSUs") financial
"Represents a grant of restricted stock units ("RSUs") that fully vest on May 15, 2027."
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.
dividend equivalent rights financial
"Each RSU represents a right to receive one share ... and do not accrue dividend equivalent rights."
Dividend equivalent rights are promises that mirror the cash payments shareholders get from a company’s profits, but they are paid to holders of certain awards (like stock options or restricted stock units) rather than to actual shares. Think of them as a paycheck top‑up that matches dividends while the award is not yet a real stock, and they matter to investors because they add to employee compensation costs and potential share dilution, affecting company profitability and per‑share value.
vest ratably financial
"Represents a grant of RSUs that vest ratably in three installments on May 15, 2027, March 31, 2028, and February 15, 2029."
