RSUs financial
"Reflects 500,000 RSUs that were awarded on June 30, 2026 and will vest in full"
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.
vesting financial
"will vest in full on June 30, 2027"
