3 terms

time-based RSUs financial

"Reflects a grant of time-based RSUs that vests in equal annual installments"

Restricted Stock Unit financial

"RSUs are Restricted Stock Units that represent the right to receive shares"

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.

grant date financial

"Reflects a grant of time-based RSUs that vest on the third anniversary of the grant date"

The grant date is the day a company formally gives an employee or contractor the right to receive stock-based compensation, such as stock options or restricted shares. It matters to investors because it fixes key terms—like the price, the start of the ownership clock, and when the award will affect the company’s financial statements and share count—so it can influence dilution, reported expenses, and potential future selling pressure.
