6 terms
weighted average price financial
"The price in Column 4 is a weighted average price."
Weighted average price is the average price of a security where each trade or component is counted according to its size, so bigger trades pull the average more than smaller ones. Think of it like calculating the average cost of a grocery haul where items you bought more of have greater influence on the final per-item cost. Investors use it to understand the true average price paid or received, judge execution quality, and compare trading performance against market movement.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) financial
"monthly purchases under the nVent Electric plc Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP)"
dividend reinvestment plan financial
"End-of-period holdings include shares acquired under a dividend reinvestment plan"
A dividend reinvestment plan lets shareholders automatically use cash dividends to buy more shares of the same company instead of receiving the money. It matters to investors because it turns regular payouts into a steady way to grow ownership and take advantage of compound returns—like having your savings automatically buy additional slices of a pie over time—while often reducing transaction costs and smoothing purchase timing.
Rule 16b-3(c) regulatory
"purchases under the nVent Electric plc Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) in exempt transactions pursuant to Rule 16b-3(c)."
An SEC rule that lets corporate insiders avoid automatic "short‑swing" profit recovery when they buy or sell their company’s stock under a pre‑approved, written plan that meets specific conditions. For investors, it matters because it clarifies when insider trades are treated as routine, reducing legal uncertainty and helping distinguish trades made for ordinary compensation or pre‑planned reasons from those that might signal opportunistic or timely insider advantage.
Section 16(a) regulatory
"exempt transactions not required to be reported pursuant to Section 16(a)."
deferral election financial
"will be delivered to the reporting person in accordance with their irrevocable deferral election."
