Convertible Preferred Stock financial
"Series II Class B Convertible Preferred Stock"
Convertible preferred stock is a special class of company shares that pays priority, usually fixed, payments to holders and can be exchanged later for a set number of common shares. It matters to investors because it combines steady income and added protection with the chance to share in a company’s upside; think of it as a hybrid between a bond that pays regularly and an option to convert into growth-oriented stock, where the conversion rules influence both potential gains and how much common shareholders’ ownership may be reduced.
shareholders of record financial
"shareholders of record as of the close of business"
Shareholders of record are the people officially listed as owners of a company's stock on a specific date. This matters because only these shareholders are entitled to receive dividends or vote at company meetings. It's like being on the official guest list for a party—you get to enjoy the perks and have a say.
per annum financial
"Dividends have accrued at $1.00 per share per annum"
A Latin phrase meaning "per year," used to express amounts, rates or changes on an annual basis—for example interest rates, growth rates, fees, or yields. It tells you how much something accumulates or is charged over one year, which lets investors compare different time-based figures on the same yearly scale. Think of it like saying "miles per year" for a car: it converts various short-term measures into a single annual number.
