Stock Incentive Plan financial

"issued under the Optical Cable Corporation 2017 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended"

A stock incentive plan is a company program that gives employees or directors pieces of ownership or the right to buy shares over time, similar to receiving a bonus paid in company stock instead of cash. Investors pay attention because these plans align staff incentives with long‑term company performance but can also dilute existing shareholders and affect reported profits when grants are expensed, so they influence both ownership percentages and financial results.

annual retainer financial

"for the stock portion of the annual retainer for the 2026-2027 board year"

forfeiture financial

"the 3,733 common shares are subject to forfeiture until they fully vest"

vest financial

"until they fully vest on June 17, 2027"

A vest is the process by which an employee earns the right to receive certain benefits or ownership interests, such as stock or retirement funds, over time. It’s similar to earning a reward gradually, ensuring that the benefit becomes fully yours only after a set period or meeting specific conditions. This makes it important for investors because it determines when they can actually claim or use those benefits.
