Restricted Stock Units financial
"Represents shares of Karat Packaging Inc.'s common stock received upon the vesting of restricted stock units ("RSUs")."

They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.
RSUs financial
"Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of Karat Packaging Inc.'s common stock."
RSUs, or restricted stock units, are a form of company shares given to employees as part of their compensation. They are typically awarded with certain restrictions, such as a waiting period before they can be fully owned or sold, similar to earning a gift that becomes fully yours over time. For investors, RSUs can impact a company's stock offerings and reflect how much the company relies on stock-based incentives to attract and retain talent.
