distribution in specie financial

"Distribution in specie of Unilever PLC ordinary shares"

A distribution in specie is when a company pays shareholders with something other than cash — for example shares in a business unit, property, bonds or inventory — by transferring ownership of the actual asset to them. It matters to investors because they receive an item that must be valued, held or sold (affecting liquidity and taxes), rather than readily spendable cash, and it can change the company’s balance sheet and future prospects.

American Depositary Receipts financial

"Unilever PLC American Depositary Receipts"

A certificate traded on U.S. markets that represents ownership of shares in a foreign company, letting U.S. investors buy and sell that company as if it were listed domestically. Think of it as a local voucher for a foreign product: it makes price quotes in dollars, trades on familiar exchanges, and brings differences in liquidity, fees and legal protections that can affect returns and risk compared with buying the underlying foreign shares directly.

short swap financial

"Conversion of short swap on ADRs into short swap on ordinary shares"

weighted average financial

"£47.67 (weighted average)"

A weighted average is a way of calculating an overall number when some items matter more than others by giving each item a different level of importance, or weight. Investors use weighted averages to combine figures like prices, returns or earnings so the result reflects the size or significance of each part — like grading a class where a final exam counts more than a quiz, producing a score that better represents true performance.

person closely associated regulatory

"Person closely associated with a person discharging managerial responsibilities"
