Rhea-AI Filing Summary

IRIDEX CORP awarded its Chief Financial Officer, Romeo R. Dizon, equity-based compensation consisting of 30,000 restricted stock units (RSUs) and a stock option for 170,000 shares. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of common stock, vesting in three equal annual installments: one-third on July 10, 2027 and one-third on each of the next two anniversaries, subject to his continued service.

The option gives Dizon the right to purchase up to 170,000 shares of IRIDEX common stock at an exercise price of $1.10 per share and expires on July 10, 2033. Following these awards, he holds 163,284 shares of common stock directly, in addition to the newly granted stock option. These are compensation grants rather than open‑market purchases or sales.

restricted stock unit (RSU) financial
"Each share is represented by a restricted stock unit (RSU)."
A restricted stock unit (RSU) is a promise from a company to give an employee company shares (or cash equal to their value) at a future date if certain conditions are met, such as staying with the company or hitting performance targets. For investors, RSUs matter because when they convert into actual shares they increase the number of shares available and can create selling pressure as employees cash out—think of them as a future paycheck paid in company stock.
Stock option (right to buy) financial
""Stock option (right to buy)" is listed as a derivative security."
exercise price financial
"conversion_or_exercise_price is shown as 1.1000 per share."
The exercise price is the fixed amount at which you can buy or sell an asset, like a stock, when using an options contract. It matters because it helps determine whether exercising the option will be profitable or not, depending on the current market price. Think of it as the set price you agree on today to buy or sell later.
service provider financial
"subject to the Reporting Person continuing as a service provider."
