Restricted stock units financial

"Restricted stock units granted by Issuer pursuant to the Ventas, Inc. 2022 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.

2022 Incentive Plan financial

"Restricted stock units granted by Issuer pursuant to the Ventas, Inc. 2022 Incentive Plan."

A 2022 incentive plan is a formal program adopted in 2022 that outlines how a company will reward employees, executives, or directors with cash, stock, or other benefits tied to performance or continued service. Investors care because these plans can change how much ownership exists (dilution), affect reported profits through compensation costs, and influence whether managers are motivated to increase long‑term value—think of it as the rules for a company’s bonus and stock‑award system.

Annual Meeting of Stockholders financial

"vest on the earlier of the one-year anniversary of the grant date or the date of Issuer's 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders."

closing price per share financial

"Represents the closing price per share of Issuer's common stock as of the grant date."
