American Depositary Share ("ADS") financial
"Each American Depositary Share ("ADS") represents eight (8) Class A ordinary shares."
An American Depositary Share (ADS) is a U.S.-listed certificate issued by a U.S. bank that represents one or more ordinary shares of a foreign company, letting U.S. investors buy and sell that foreign stock in dollars on U.S. markets. It matters because ADSs make access to overseas companies easier and more convenient—like a local ticket that stands in for a foreign product—while affecting liquidity, dividend payments, currency conversion and the regulatory disclosures investors rely on.

"Reflects the acquisition of ADSs upon settlement of fully vested Restricted Stock Unit ("RSU") awards."
Class A ordinary shares financial
"Each American Depositary Share ("ADS") represents eight (8) Class A ordinary shares."
Class A ordinary shares are a type of ownership stake in a company that typically grants voting rights to shareholders, allowing them to have a say in important company decisions. They often come with priority in receiving dividends or profits, making them attractive to investors seeking influence and potential income. These shares help distinguish different levels of ownership and rights within a company's stock structure.
