Restricted Stock Units financial

"Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of Microsoft common stock."

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.

dividend equivalent rights financial

"Dividend equivalent rights accrue when and as dividends are paid on the Company's common stock..."

Dividend equivalent rights are promises that mirror the cash payments shareholders get from a company’s profits, but they are paid to holders of certain awards (like stock options or restricted stock units) rather than to actual shares. Think of them as a paycheck top‑up that matches dividends while the award is not yet a real stock, and they matter to investors because they add to employee compensation costs and potential share dilution, affecting company profitability and per‑share value.

separation from service financial

"Delivery of the shares to the reporting person will be made 30 days after the date of the reporting person's separation from service to the Board of Directors."
