restricted stock units ("RSUs") financial
"The number of shares of KLA common stock includes 109,029.050 shares issuable upon vesting of restricted stock units ("RSUs")."
Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a company promise to give an employee shares of stock (or cash equivalent) in the future, but only after certain conditions—usually staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance goals—are met. Investors watch RSUs because when they vest they increase the number of shares outstanding and can lead insiders to sell shares, affecting share price, company dilution and the true cost of employee pay.
employee stock purchase plan financial
"Purchased under the registrant's employee stock purchase plan."
An employee stock purchase plan is a company program that lets workers buy shares through small payroll deductions, often at a discount to the market price and after a set offering period. Think of it like a workplace savings plan that turns into ownership: it encourages employees to share in the company’s success and can create predictable buying or selling of stock that investors watch because it affects supply, demand and employee incentives.
performance-based and service-based vesting conditions ("PRSUs") financial
"the reporting person was granted RSUs with both performance-based and service-based vesting conditions ("PRSUs") divided into three tranches."
offering period financial
"the first day of the offering period under the employee stock purchase plan."
Compensation and Talent Committee financial
"KLA's Board of Directors and Compensation and Talent Committee determined that the performance conditions applicable to the second tranche of these PRSUs were satisfied."
