Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") financial
"Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") granted on June 3, 2026, pursuant to the Issuer's 2022 Equity Incentive Plan."
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.

Rule 10b5-1 trading plan regulatory
"sales to cover mandatory tax withholding obligations ... were effected pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 trading plan instructions"
A Rule 10b5-1 trading plan is a pre-arranged schedule that allows company insiders to buy or sell stock at specific times, even if they have inside information. It helps prevent accusations of unfair trading by making these transactions look planned and transparent, rather than sneaky or illegal.
