restricted stock unit financial
"These shares were acquired pursuant to a restricted stock unit grant under the Company's 2018 Stock Option and Incentive Plan"
A restricted stock unit is a promise from a company to give an employee shares of stock after certain conditions are met, like staying with the company for a set amount of time. It’s like earning a bonus that turns into company stock once you’ve proven your commitment, making it a way to motivate and reward employees.
2018 Stock Option and Incentive Plan financial
"acquired pursuant to a restricted stock unit grant under the Company's 2018 Stock Option and Incentive Plan"
stock options financial
"These stock options were acquired pursuant to a grant under the Plan."
Stock options are agreements that give a person the right to buy or sell a company's stock at a specific price within a certain time frame. They are often used as a reward or incentive, similar to a coupon that can be used later if the stock price rises, allowing the holder to make a profit.
exercise price financial
"transaction_price_per_share": "6.1500" and conversion_or_exercise_price": "6.1500""
The exercise price is the fixed amount at which you can buy or sell an asset, like a stock, when using an options contract. It matters because it helps determine whether exercising the option will be profitable or not, depending on the current market price. Think of it as the set price you agree on today to buy or sell later.
