ADS financial
"One ADS represents four Class A Ordinary Shares."
Ads are paid promotional messages a company places across media — online, on TV, in print, or on social platforms — to attract customers, explain products, or shape public perception. For investors, ads matter because they drive sales growth, affect how much a company must spend to win customers, and influence brand strength and long-term value. Ads can also create regulatory or reputational risk if claims are misleading, which can affect profits and stock price.
Incentive Stock Option financial
"Incentive Stock Option (Right to Buy) with exercise price of 4.5000."
An incentive stock option is a type of employee benefit that gives a worker the right to buy company shares at a fixed price, with special tax advantages if the employee holds the shares for a required period. Think of it as a coupon to buy future shares at today’s price that can result in lower tax on the gain. Investors care because ISOs can dilute share count, align staff incentives with the stock price, and affect company compensation costs and the timing of potential share sales.
RSU (Restricted Stock Unit) financial
"RSU (Restricted Stock Unit) with underlying security title ADSs."
vesting financial
"Fifty percent of the Shares subject to the Option shall vest on September 4, 2028."
Vesting is the process by which you earn full ownership of something, like company stock or a retirement benefit, over time. It’s like earning the right to keep a gift piece by piece the longer you stay with a company, making sure employees stay committed before they receive all the benefits.
average closing price financial
"the average closing price of the Company's ADSs during any twenty consecutive trading days is not less than US$6.00."
