Nonqualified stock options financial
"These nonqualified stock options are fully vested and are exercisable immediately."
A nonqualified stock option is a company-issued right that lets an employee or contractor buy shares later at a preset price, like a coupon to purchase stock regardless of the market price. It matters to investors because when the option is used the recipient owes ordinary-income tax on the difference between market and preset price, which affects the holder’s financial decisions and can change the company’s share count and reported expenses.
Career Restricted Stock Units financial
"Each Career Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive one STERIS ordinary share"
fully vested financial
"These Career Restricted Stock Units are fully vested immediately."
