Equity Incentive Plan financial

"Annual cash and/or stock retainer shares issued under the Issuer's 2025 Equity Incentive Plan."

An equity incentive plan is a program that gives employees, executives or directors the right to receive company stock or options to buy stock as part of their pay. Think of it as offering slices of future company profit to motivate people to boost long‑term performance; for investors it matters because it can align employee goals with shareholder value but also increases the number of shares outstanding, which can dilute existing ownership.
