restricted stock units ("RSUs") financial
"These shares represent restricted stock units ("RSUs"). Each RSU represents a contingent right..."
Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a company promise to give an employee shares of stock (or cash equivalent) in the future, but only after certain conditions—usually staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance goals—are met. Investors watch RSUs because when they vest they increase the number of shares outstanding and can lead insiders to sell shares, affecting share price, company dilution and the true cost of employee pay.
Equity Grant Policy financial
"This annual grant was made pursuant to the Issuer's Equity Grant Policy for non-employee directors."
non-employee directors financial
"This annual grant was made pursuant to the Issuer's Equity Grant Policy for non-employee directors."
Non-employee directors are board members who do not work for the company as salaried employees and usually do not hold day-to-day management roles. They act like outside referees or independent coaches, providing oversight, asking tough questions, and protecting shareholders’ interests; investors care because these directors help ensure management is accountable, reduce conflicts of interest, and influence decisions that affect company strategy and long-term value.
Stock Option (right to buy) financial
