Restricted Stock Units financial
"the reporting person was granted 1,075 restricted stock units, vesting in four equal annual installments"
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.
