Restricted Stock Unit financial
"Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive one share"
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.
Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit financial
"Each performance-based restricted stock unit ("PSU") represents a contingent right"
A performance-based restricted stock unit is a promise of company shares given to an employee that only becomes actual stock if specific performance targets are met and any required time at the company is completed. For investors, these awards matter because they can dilute existing shares when earned and signal management’s confidence or the company’s expected future performance, much like a bonus cheque that only clears when pre-set goals are reached.
Quarterly Vesting Date financial
"on each March 20, June 20, September 20, and December 20 (each, a "Quarterly Vesting Date")"
average stock price financial
"based on the Company's average stock price trading at each of the following milestones"

FAQ

What equity awards did Yext (YEXT) General Counsel Shin Ho receive in this Form 4?

Shin Ho received 283,826 time-based restricted stock units and two performance-based restricted stock unit awards of 275,478 units each. Every unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of Yext common stock, subject to multi-year vesting and performance conditions.

How do the time-based restricted stock units for Yext (YEXT) General Counsel vest?

The 283,826 restricted stock units vest over nearly four years, starting December 20, 2027. One-sixteenth vests on that date, then additional sixteenths vest quarterly on March 20, June 20, September 20, and December 20, fully vesting by September 20, 2031, if service continues.

What stock price milestones govern one of the Yext (YEXT) performance-based RSU awards?

For one 275,478-unit PSU award, 25% of the shares are tied to each of four stock price milestones: $12, $15, $17, and $20. When Yext’s average stock price reaches a threshold, that portion becomes eligible and vests on the next Quarterly Vesting Date, subject to continued service.

How do the lower-price performance milestones work for the second Yext (YEXT) PSU grant?

For the second 275,478-unit PSU grant, 25% of shares are tied to average stock price milestones of $9, $11, $13, and $15. Once a level is reached, that portion vests in 1/16 increments on Quarterly Vesting Dates after September 20, 2027, assuming continued service.

Are the Yext (YEXT) RSU and PSU awards granted to Shin Ho market purchases of stock?

No, these awards are not open-market purchases. They are compensation grants of restricted stock units and performance-based units at a stated price of $0.00 per unit, representing contingent rights to receive Yext common shares if vesting and performance conditions are satisfied.

What conditions must be met for Shin Ho’s Yext (YEXT) PSU awards to vest?

The PSU awards require both performance and service conditions. Performance is based on Yext’s average stock price reaching specified dollar milestones, while service requires Ho to remain with the company through the applicable Quarterly Vesting Dates for eligible portions to actually vest.
