Performance Share Units financial

"Each performance restricted stock unit ("PSU") represented a contingent right to receive one share"

Performance share units are a type of company stock award given to employees that depend on the company meeting specific goals or targets. If these goals are achieved, the employee receives shares or the value of shares; if not, they may receive little or no compensation. This aligns employees’ interests with the company's success and encourages performance that benefits investors.

restricted stock units financial

"concurrent grant of replacement restricted stock units ("RSUs")"

Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.

ratable vesting financial

"to modify the PSU award to provide for ratable vesting over a three-year period"

compensation committee financial

"On August 5, 2026, the issuer's compensation committee amended the terms of the PSUs"

A compensation committee is a group within a company's leadership responsible for setting and reviewing how much top executives and employees are paid, including salaries, bonuses, and benefits. It matters to investors because fair and effective pay decisions can influence a company's performance, leadership motivation, and overall governance, helping ensure that the company’s management is aligned with shareholders’ interests.

The 157,232 replacement RSUs for loanDepot’s CIO vest in three equal annual installments starting March 16, 2027. Vesting is described as ratable over a three-year period and is exclusively conditioned on the executive’s continuous service with the company during that time.
