"Each Restricted Stock Unit ("RSU")"

A restricted stock unit is a promise from a company to give an employee shares of stock after certain conditions are met, like staying with the company for a set amount of time. It’s like earning a bonus that turns into company stock once you’ve proven your commitment, making it a way to motivate and reward employees.

common share financial

"settled in Novanta Inc. common shares"

A common share is a type of ownership in a company that gives the holder a claim to a portion of the company’s profits and assets. It often comes with voting rights, allowing shareholders to participate in decisions about the company’s direction. For investors, owning common shares can mean potential for growth and income, but also involves a higher level of risk compared to other types of investments.
