withholding taxes financial
"shares were sold upon the vesting of restricted share units solely to cover estimated withholding taxes"
Withholding taxes are amounts a payer or government takes out of payments — such as wages, interest, or dividends — before the recipient gets the money, functioning like a cashier keeping part of a bill to pay taxes on your behalf. For investors this matters because it reduces the cash they actually receive, affects net returns and yield calculations, and may require additional paperwork or treaty claims to recover or offset the withheld amount against final tax bills.
weighted average price financial
"The price reported 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.
