restricted stock units financial
"vesting of certain restricted stock units granted to the reporting person on May 8, 2024"
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.
withholding taxes financial
"shares withheld by NMIH to satisfy withholding taxes due in connection with the vesting"
Withholding taxes are amounts a payer or government takes out of payments — such as wages, interest, or dividends — before the recipient gets the money, functioning like a cashier keeping part of a bill to pay taxes on your behalf. For investors this matters because it reduces the cash they actually receive, affects net returns and yield calculations, and may require additional paperwork or treaty claims to recover or offset the withheld amount against final tax bills.
net settlement price financial
"at a net settlement price equal to closing stock price on May 8, 2026"
