time-based vesting financial

"subject to both time-based and performance-based vesting conditions"

Time-based vesting is a schedule that gives employees or contractors ownership of granted stock or options gradually as they remain with a company, like unlocking rewards in a loyalty program the longer you stick around. For investors, it matters because it affects future share supply, management incentives and staff retention — all of which can influence company performance and dilution of existing shareholders.
