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"
weighted average sale price financial
"Price reflects a weighted average sale price for multiple transactions ranging"
redomiciliation regulatory
"received in connection with the redomiciliation of STERIS plc to Ireland in March 2019"
Redomiciliation is when a company legally changes its country of incorporation while keeping the same business and assets, like moving a house to a new neighborhood but keeping the same furniture. Investors care because the company then follows a different set of laws and tax rules, which can change shareholder rights, reporting standards, dividend treatment and the ease of trading the stock, potentially affecting risk and return.
