restricted share units financial
"The restricted share units ("RSUs") were granted pursuant to Reporting Person's employment"
Restricted share units (RSUs) are a promise from a company to give an employee or service provider actual shares or cash equal to the shares after certain conditions are met, typically staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance targets. Think of them like a time-locked gift card that becomes usable only after you’ve earned it. For investors, RSUs matter because they align employee incentives with company performance and can increase the number of shares outstanding over time, diluting existing ownership and affecting earnings per share.
Annual Stock Performance-Based Incentive Award financial
"pursuant to Reporting Person's employment agreement in connection with the Annual Stock Performance-Based Incentive Award"
Stock Performance-Based Incentive Award Earning Date financial
"The stock price target was achieved on June 26, 2026 ("Stock Performance-Based Incentive Award Earning Date")"
revocable trust financial
"Held by the Jeffrey A. Hirsch Revocable Trust."
A revocable trust is a legal arrangement where the person who creates it keeps control and can change or cancel the trust at any time, while naming who will manage and receive the assets later. Think of it like a flexible folder for your investments and property that can be relabeled or reworked as circumstances change; it matters to investors because it determines how ownership is recorded, how easily assets transfer on incapacity or death, and whether holdings bypass public probate proceedings.
