Restricted Stock Units financial

"Security title reported as Restricted Stock Units granted to the officer"

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.

contingent right financial

"Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of SONY common stock."

accelerated vesting financial

"The grant is subject to forfeiture and accelerated vesting in accordance with its terms."

A contract feature that makes stock awards, options, or restricted shares become owned or exercisable earlier than the original schedule. It shortens or cancels the waiting period so recipients can sell, transfer, or exercise their equity sooner — think of a timed lock that is unlocked ahead of schedule. It matters to investors because it changes when shares enter the market, who controls them, and how much dilution or ownership concentration happens.
