Restricted Share Units financial
"Reflects restricted share units that vested and settled into ordinary shares."
Restricted share units (RSUs) are a promise from a company to give an employee or service provider actual shares or cash equal to the shares after certain conditions are met, typically staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance targets. Think of them like a time-locked gift card that becomes usable only after you’ve earned it. For investors, RSUs matter because they align employee incentives with company performance and can increase the number of shares outstanding over time, diluting existing ownership and affecting earnings per share.
American depositary shares financial
"Ordinary Shares (represented by American depositary shares)"
American depositary shares (ADSs) are a way for investors in the United States to buy shares of foreign companies without dealing with international markets directly. They represent ownership in a foreign company's stock and are traded on U.S. stock exchanges, making it easier for American investors to buy, sell, and own parts of companies from around the world.
Irrevocable Trust financial
"the beneficiary of the Irrevocable Trust, and Nancy Hu, the wife"
An irrevocable trust is a legal arrangement where an owner transfers assets into a separate entity managed by a trustee and gives up the power to modify or reclaim those assets. For investors it matters because putting stock or other holdings into such a trust can change who controls and benefits from the assets, affect taxes and creditor protection, and influence how easy it is to sell or value those holdings—like placing valuables in a locked safe overseen by someone else.
