Outlook, Risks, and Unusual Items
Vesting and Performance Conditions:
- RSAs: The first vesting date is June 1, 2021.
- PRSAs: Awards are subject to performance conditions to be established by the Compensation Committee. The performance period ends on June 30, 2022.
- Terms: Both award types follow the same vesting schedule and acceleration provisions as previously awarded RSAs and PRSAs.
The filing contains no specific discussion of risks, contingencies, or unusual items beyond the standard terms of the equity grants.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the specific performance metrics attached to the PRSAs, as the filing states they are to be established by the Compensation Committee but does not list them.
- Review the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan to confirm the total pool of shares available for future grants.
- Check subsequent filings for the actual vesting schedule details and any acceleration triggers.
