restricted shares financial
"Dr. Papastavrou was awarded 6,324 restricted shares of common stock under the Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan."
Restricted shares are company stock that cannot be sold or transferred immediately because they are subject to legal or contractual limits, such as a required holding period or performance conditions. They matter to investors because these locked-up shares can affect a company’s available stock for trading, future dilution, and insider incentives—imagine a gift that can’t be cashed until certain conditions are met, which changes when and how much supply can suddenly enter the market.
2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan financial
"awarded 6,324 restricted shares of common stock under the Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan."
beneficial ownership financial
"The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of shares held in trust for which he serves as trustee or co-trustee."
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.
