Restricted Stock Units financial

"The sale reported on this Form 4 represents shares sold ... in connection with the settlement of RSUs that vested on May 23, 2026."

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.
