restricted stock units ("RSUs") financial

"Represents an award of restricted stock units ("RSUs"), which vest in equal annual installments"

Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a company promise to give an employee shares of stock (or cash equivalent) in the future, but only after certain conditions—usually staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance goals—are met. Investors watch RSUs because when they vest they increase the number of shares outstanding and can lead insiders to sell shares, affecting share price, company dilution and the true cost of employee pay.

Ordinary Share financial

"Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one Ordinary Share"

An ordinary share is a unit of ownership in a company that gives the holder a stake in its profits and usually the right to vote on key decisions. Think of it like a slice of a pizza where each slice entitles you to a portion of what’s left after bills are paid; value can rise or fall with the business and may pay dividends, so it matters to investors for income, growth and control.

vest financial

"which vest in equal annual installments through February 15, 2030"

A vest is the process by which an employee earns the right to receive certain benefits or ownership interests, such as stock or retirement funds, over time. It’s similar to earning a reward gradually, ensuring that the benefit becomes fully yours only after a set period or meeting specific conditions. This makes it important for investors because it determines when they can actually claim or use those benefits.
