restricted stock units (RSUs) financial

"Represents an award of restricted stock units (RSUs). Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one American Depositary Share."

Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a type of company promise to give employees shares of stock in the future, usually after certain conditions like working for a set time. They are like a gift promised today that you receive later, which can become valuable if the company's stock price goes up. RSUs matter because they are a way companies reward employees and can be a significant part of compensation.

American Depositary Shares financial

"Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one American Depositary Share."

American depositary shares (ADSs) are a way for investors in the United States to buy shares of foreign companies without dealing with international markets directly. They represent ownership in a foreign company's stock and are traded on U.S. stock exchanges, making it easier for American investors to buy, sell, and own parts of companies from around the world.
