restricted stock units financial
"Represents restricted stock units granted to Mr. Ross under the Dave & Buster's Entertainment, Inc. 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan."
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.
2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan financial
"restricted stock units granted to Mr. Ross under the Dave & Buster's Entertainment, Inc. 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan."
An omnibus incentive plan is a company-wide program that authorizes awards of pay tied to performance and retention—such as stock options, restricted shares, cash bonuses and other rewards—here labeled for the year it was adopted (2025). Investors care because it affects how much ownership can be issued, dilutes existing shareholders, and aligns executives’ and employees’ incentives with company goals, similar to giving team members a stake in the outcome.
Section 13(d) group regulatory
"Each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be a member of a Section 13(d) group that collectively beneficially own more than 10% of the Issuer's outstanding shares."
beneficial ownership financial
"Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein except to the extent of his or its pecuniary interest therein."
Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.
pecuniary interest financial
"disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein except to the extent of his or its pecuniary interest therein."
