Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") financial
"Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") granted under the NIKE, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan"
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.
NIKE, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan financial
"RSUs granted under the NIKE, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan; 25% of the total"
Employee Stock Purchase Plan financial
"Includes shares acquired pursuant to NIKE, Inc.'s Employee Stock Purchase Plan"
An employee stock purchase plan is a company program that lets workers buy shares through small payroll deductions, often at a discount to the market price and after a set offering period. Think of it like a workplace savings plan that turns into ownership: it encourages employees to share in the company’s success and can create predictable buying or selling of stock that investors watch because it affects supply, demand and employee incentives.
