American Depositary Shares financial
"Each three American Depositary Shares ("ADSs") represent one Class A common 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.
Restricted Stock Units (RSU) financial
"Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive 1 share of the Issuer's ADSs"
tax-withholding disposition financial
"transaction_action": "tax-withholding disposition""
A tax-withholding disposition is an event or transaction—such as selling or transferring securities, exercising options, or receiving compensation—that triggers a requirement to hold back part of the payment and remit it to tax authorities. It matters to investors because it reduces the cash they receive immediately and can change the timing and amount of taxable income, like a cashier taking a portion of your sale proceeds to pay taxes before you get the rest.
