dividend equivalent rights financial
"Each dividend equivalent right is the economic equivalent of one WTW Ordinary Share."
Dividend equivalent rights are promises that mirror the cash payments shareholders get from a company’s profits, but they are paid to holders of certain awards (like stock options or restricted stock units) rather than to actual shares. Think of them as a paycheck top‑up that matches dividends while the award is not yet a real stock, and they matter to investors because they add to employee compensation costs and potential share dilution, affecting company profitability and per‑share value.
restricted share unit awards financial
"previously reported restricted share unit awards"
vesting schedule financial
"will vest based on the same vesting schedule applicable to the underlying award"
A vesting schedule is a timeline that determines when someone gains full ownership of certain benefits, such as company stock or retirement contributions. Think of it like earning the right to own a gift gradually over time, rather than receiving it all at once. It matters to investors because it affects when they can fully access or sell these benefits, influencing their financial planning and decision-making.
1:1 basis financial
