restricted stock financial
"Represents number of shares to be delivered upon settlement of restricted stock."
Shares granted to an individual that carry limits on transfer or sale until certain conditions are met, such as staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance targets. Think of them as a locked gift that gradually opens; for investors they matter because they affect how many shares may enter the market later, signal management incentives and potential dilution, and reveal confidence in future company performance.
restricted stock units financial
"such restricted stock units will be settled on the 90th day following the date the director ceases"
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.
2020 Restricted Stock Unit Deferral Plan for Non-Employee Directors financial
"under the Stanley Black & Decker, Inc. 2020 Restricted Stock Unit Deferral Plan for Non-Employee Directors."
deferral financial
"The reporting person has elected to defer settlement of such restricted stock units"
lump sum financial
"will be settled on the 90th day ... either in one lump sum or in three, five or ten annual installments."
A lump sum is a single, one-time payment of the full amount owed instead of spreading the same money over multiple smaller payments. For investors, receiving or paying a lump sum affects cash flow, reinvestment opportunities and tax timing—like getting a full paycheck at once rather than regular paychecks—so it changes liquidity, risk exposure and the timing of returns.
