restricted stock units financial

"vesting of restricted stock units granted under the Wheels Up Experience Inc. 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan"

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.

tax liability financial

"were withheld for the payment of tax liability arising as a result of the vesting"

reverse stock split financial

"adjusted to reflect the Issuer's 1-for-20 reverse stock split that occurred on April 24, 2026"

A reverse stock split reduces a company's number of outstanding shares while raising the price per share proportionally, so the total value of each investor's holding is unchanged; a 1-for-10 split turns 100 shares worth $1 each into 10 shares worth $10 each. Companies often do this to regain compliance with an exchange's minimum price rule or to attract investors who avoid very low-priced stocks.

Long-Term Incentive Plan financial

"granted under the Wheels Up Experience Inc. 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended and restated"

A long-term incentive plan is a company program that pays executives or employees with stock, options, or cash tied to multi-year performance goals, where the rewards become theirs only after meeting conditions over time. Think of it as a delayed bonus or retirement-style reward that aligns employees’ interests with shareholders by encouraging them to boost long-term value; investors watch these plans because they affect pay costs, share dilution and management incentives.
