Restricted Stock Unit financial
"Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of FOR common stock upon vesting."
A restricted stock unit is a promise from a company to give an employee shares of stock after certain conditions are met, like staying with the company for a set amount of time. It’s like earning a bonus that turns into company stock once you’ve proven your commitment, making it a way to motivate and reward employees.
withholding tax obligations financial
"These shares are surrendered to issuer to cover withholding tax obligations of the shares vested on March 31, 2026."
Exercise or conversion of derivative security financial
"transaction_code_description: Exercise or conversion of derivative security"
tax-withholding disposition financial
"transaction_action: tax-withholding disposition"
A tax-withholding disposition is an event or transaction—such as selling or transferring securities, exercising options, or receiving compensation—that triggers a requirement to hold back part of the payment and remit it to tax authorities. It matters to investors because it reduces the cash they receive immediately and can change the timing and amount of taxable income, like a cashier taking a portion of your sale proceeds to pay taxes before you get the rest.
