Key Terms

4 terms

restricted stock financial

"These shares were awarded as restricted stock pursuant to the Veeco Instruments Inc. 2019 Stock Incentive Plan"

Shares granted to an individual that carry limits on transfer or sale until certain conditions are met, such as staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance targets. Think of them as a locked gift that gradually opens; for investors they matter because they affect how many shares may enter the market later, signal management incentives and potential dilution, and reveal confidence in future company performance.

2019 Stock Incentive Plan financial

"pursuant to the Veeco Instruments Inc. 2019 Stock Incentive Plan in consideration of services as a director"

bona fide gift financial

"This transaction involved a gift of securities by the reporting person to St. Joseph's University."

A bona fide gift is a genuine, voluntary transfer of money, property, or benefits from one party to another made without expectation of repayment, services, or hidden conditions. Investors care because such gifts can affect company disclosures, related‑party transaction rules, tax treatment, and perceived conflicts of interest; think of it like someone giving you a present with no strings attached — but on a corporate scale, auditors and regulators need to verify it really is unconditional.

annual meeting of stockholders financial

"shall lapse on the earlier to occur of: (i) the date immediately preceding the date of the Company's 2027 Annual Meeting of stockholders"
