Restricted Stock Units financial
"the reporting person's 103,448 restricted stock units, which were granted on June 3, 2025, vested"
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.

A yearly gathering where a company’s owners (shareholders) and its leaders meet to review performance, approve key decisions like electing directors, and vote on issues such as executive pay or major policy changes. Think of it as an annual town hall for people who own part of the business: investors use it to ask questions, influence direction through votes, and gauge management’s plans and transparency, all of which can affect the stock’s outlook.
