business combination financial

"received 98,948 RSUs in connection with the closing of the business combination"

A business combination happens when two or more companies join together to operate as one, like two friends merging their teams into a single group. This is important because it can change how companies grow, compete, and make money, often making them bigger and more powerful in the market.
