restricted stock units financial

"Represents the number of shares of the Issuer's common stock ("Common Stock") underlying restricted stock units ("RSUs") granted on June 19, 2026."

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.

RSUs financial

"Each RSU represents the contingent right to receive one share of Common Stock upon settlement."

RSUs, or restricted stock units, are a form of company shares given to employees as part of their compensation. They are typically awarded with certain restrictions, such as a waiting period before they can be fully owned or sold, similar to earning a gift that becomes fully yours over time. For investors, RSUs can impact a company's stock offerings and reflect how much the company relies on stock-based incentives to attract and retain talent.

Continuous Service financial
