PRSUs financial
"Each PRSU represents a contingent right to receive one share"
A PRSU is a type of employee equity award that turns into actual company shares only if preset performance goals are met over a specified time. Think of it like a prize that only pays out when a team hits agreed targets; investors watch PRSUs because they tie management pay to results, can increase the number of shares outstanding when paid, and therefore affect shareholder value and incentives.
average daily weighted stock price financial
"based on the average daily weighted stock price of the Company's Class A common stock"
Omnibus Incentive Plan financial
"under the Ionic Digital Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan"
An omnibus incentive plan is a single, flexible program a company uses to give employees and executives different types of pay tied to performance — for example stock options, restricted shares, cash bonuses and other awards — all governed by one set of rules. It matters to investors because it determines how many new shares may be created, how leaders are motivated and how much the company will spend on compensation over time; think of it as a master toolbox that affects both costs and the total share supply.
