restricted share unit financial
"Each restricted share unit ("RSU") represents a contingent right to receive one share"
A restricted share unit (RSU) is a promise by a company to give an employee a set number of company shares at a future date, typically after meeting time or performance conditions. For investors, RSUs matter because when they convert into actual shares they increase the number of shares outstanding (like unlocking more tickets in a game), which can dilute existing holders, and they align employee incentives with company performance, influencing behavior and long-term value.
performance share unit financial
"Each performance share unit ("PSU") represents a contingent right to receive one share"
A performance share unit (PSU) is a form of executive or employee pay that promises shares (or the cash value of shares) only if the company meets specific performance targets over a set period. Think of it like a bonus cheque that only arrives if the company hits agreed goals — it aligns managers’ rewards with business results and signals to investors how leadership is being incentivized to grow value over time.
