Stock Option financial

"security_title: Stock Option"

A stock option is a contract that gives you the right to buy or sell a company's stock at a specific price within a certain time frame. People use them to potentially make money if the stock's price moves favorably or to protect against losses. It's like holding a coupon that can be used to buy or sell stock at a set price later on.

2026 Stock Incentive Plan financial

"The option was granted pursuant to the Issuer's 2026 Stock Incentive Plan"

Annual Meeting of Stockholders financial

"vests on the earlier of the one year anniversary of the grant date and the Issuer's 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders"

exercise price financial

"conversion_or_exercise_price: 13.2800"

The exercise price is the fixed amount at which you can buy or sell an asset, like a stock, when using an options contract. It matters because it helps determine whether exercising the option will be profitable or not, depending on the current market price. Think of it as the set price you agree on today to buy or sell later.
