Class C Common Stock financial
"The common units of Lincoln International, LP ("Common Units") may be redeemed ... and a corresponding number of shares of Class C Common Stock will be forfeited"
A class C common stock is a type of company share that usually represents ownership but often carries limited or no voting power compared with other share classes. For investors, that matters because it can affect influence over company decisions and sometimes the stock’s price or dividend priority — think of it as owning a ticket to the same event but in a section with less say in how the event is run.
Common Units financial
"The common units of Lincoln International, LP ("Common Units") may be redeemed by the Reporting Person at any time"
Common units are the basic ownership stakes in a company, limited partnership, or trust that function like common stock: they give holders a claim on profits and often voting rights. Think of them as the ordinary seats at a table—the most directly affected by the business’s success or failure, so they typically offer higher upside but carry greater risk than preferred claims or creditors, which matters to investors evaluating potential return and safety.
stock option financial
"The stock option vests in full on January 1, 2027."
A stock option is a contract that gives you the right to buy or sell a company's stock at a specific price within a certain time frame. People use them to potentially make money if the stock's price moves favorably or to protect against losses. It's like holding a coupon that can be used to buy or sell stock at a set price later on.
exercise price financial
"The stock option shows a conversion or exercise price of 9.0900 per unit."
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.

"The stock option vests in full on January 1, 2028."
