restricted stock units financial
"Represents an award of restricted stock units ("RSUs")."
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.
performance restricted stock units financial
"Represents an award of performance restricted stock units ("PRSUs")."
Performance restricted stock units (PRSUs) are promises to deliver company shares to employees or executives only if the business meets specific performance targets and any time-based holding rules. Think of them as a bonus that converts into stock only after set goals are reached, so investors watch PRSUs for two reasons: they can dilute existing shares if paid out, and they signal how closely management’s pay is tied to company performance.
Share Price Target financial
"50,000 upon achievement of an $8.00 Share Price Target"
vesting commencement date financial
"commencing on the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date"
The vesting commencement date is the starting point when an employee begins earning ownership rights to their promised benefits, such as stock options or retirement contributions. Think of it like the day a savings account is opened—only after this date do the benefits start to grow and become fully available over time. It matters to investors because it marks when the clock begins ticking toward full ownership, affecting the timing and value of these benefits.

On August 4, 2026, Nitin Dahiya received 400,000 restricted stock units and 400,000 performance restricted stock units. Each unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of common stock, subject to time-based vesting for the RSUs and share-price and service conditions for the PRSUs.

How do the RSUs granted to NRGV's CFO vest over time?

The 400,000 RSUs are scheduled to vest as to 25% of the underlying shares on September 30, 2027. The remaining underlying shares will then vest in 12 substantially similar quarterly installments, so the award vests gradually over several years assuming continued service.

The 400,000 PRSUs vest in three tranches tied to share price. 50,000 vest at an $8.00 Share Price Target, 150,000 at $10.00, and 200,000 at $12.00, in each case subject to meeting specified continuous-employment periods of 12, 24 and 36 months, respectively.

When do the PRSUs for NRGV's CFO become eligible to vest?

The PRSUs become eligible to vest based on share price targets commencing on the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date. Eligibility depends on achieving the $8.00, $10.00 and $12.00 Share Price Targets and satisfying the related minimum continuous-employment periods for each tranche.

Are NRGV CFO Nitin Dahiya's August 2026 equity awards part of a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan?
