restricted stock units financial
"the tax withholding obligations that arose upon the vesting of certain restricted stock units granted to the reporting person"
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.
weighted-average sale price financial
"prices ranging from $17.63 to $18.10, inclusive. The reported price reflects the weighted-average sale price."
tax withholding obligations financial
"shares were sold by the reporting person to satisfy the tax withholding obligations that arose upon the vesting of certain restricted stock units"
beneficial interest financial
"Mr. Xie disclaims any beneficial interest except with respect to any pecuniary interest therein."
Beneficial interest is the right to receive the economic benefits of an asset—such as dividends, interest, or sale proceeds—without necessarily holding legal title to it. For investors this matters because it determines who actually gains from an investment or trust, much like renting an apartment where the tenant enjoys living there and paying bills while the landlord holds the deed; understanding who has the beneficial interest affects income rights, voting influence, and risk exposure.
pecuniary interest financial
"Mr. Xie disclaims any beneficial interest except with respect to any pecuniary interest therein."
