restricted stock units (RSUs) financial
"Represents shares withheld by the Issuer to satisfy the tax withholding obligation in connection with the vesting of restricted stock units (RSUs)."
Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a type of company promise to give employees shares of stock in the future, usually after certain conditions like working for a set time. They are like a gift promised today that you receive later, which can become valuable if the company's stock price goes up. RSUs matter because they are a way companies reward employees and can be a significant part of compensation.
performance stock units (PSUs) financial
"Includes 133,781 RSUs and 4,132 performance stock units (PSUs), each of which entitle the Reporting Person to receive one share."
Performance stock units (PSUs) are a form of executive or employee pay that promise company shares only if pre-set performance goals are met over a defined period; think of them as a bonus paid in stock that arrives only when the company hits agreed targets. Investors watch PSUs because they affect the number of shares outstanding (dilution) and reveal how management’s pay is tied to financial or operational results, aligning incentives with shareholder outcomes.

"Includes 117 shares of Class A Common Stock that were purchased through the Issuer's Employee Stock Purchase Program."
