restricted stock unit ("RSU") financial

"Represents a restricted stock unit ("RSU") award. 1/4th of the RSUs shall vest"

Employee Stock Option financial

"security_title": "Employee Stock Option (right to buy)"

An employee stock option is a promise that lets a worker buy company shares later at a predetermined price, often after they stay for a certain period or meet performance goals — think of it like a coupon that locks in today's price for a future purchase. It matters to investors because options align employees’ incentives with company performance, can increase the number of shares outstanding (dilution) when exercised, and represent a compensation cost that affects reported profits and shareholder value.

vesting date financial

"thereafter, subject to the Reporting Person's continued service through each vesting date."
