"The RSUs cliff vest on June 1, 2027, or the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders"
A cliff vest is a schedule for stock options or restricted shares where no ownership rights are earned until a fixed date, after which a set portion becomes fully owned all at once — like a probation period that suddenly unlocks pay. Investors watch cliff vests because they influence when insiders can sell shares, affect staff retention and dilution timing, and help predict short-term changes in a company’s shareholder makeup.
