Restricted Share Units financial
"Each Restricted Share Unit (RSU) represents a contingent right to receive one Class A Ordinary Share"
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.
Share Option financial
"The option vests and becomes exercisable in twelve substantially equal monthly installments"
vests financial
"The RSUs vest in their entirety on the earlier of a) the anniversary of the date of the grant"
exercise price financial
"conversion_or_exercise_price: "48.3800" for the Share Option grant"
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.
