Record Date financial
"common stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 23, 2026 (the "Record Date")"
The record date is the specific day when a company determines which shareholders are eligible to receive a dividend or participate in an upcoming vote. It’s like a cutoff date; if you own the stock on that day, you get the benefits or voting rights. This date matters because it decides who qualifies for certain company benefits.
subscription period financial
"The subscription period commenced on the Record Date and expired on April 15, 2026."
A subscription period is the set number of days when investors can sign up to buy newly offered securities, such as shares or bonds, at a specified price. Think of it like a limited-time sale window: if you want to join the offering you must commit during that window, and the number of applicants can affect how many units each investor receives and the final price outcome. For investors, it matters because timing, demand and allocation during this period directly influence potential ownership stake and short-term position value.
final subscription price financial
"The final subscription price of $6.50 per share of Common Stock was determined"
fractional shares financial
"The Common Stock subscribed for will be issued after receipt of all stockholder payments. Fractional shares of Common Stock will not be issued."
Fractional shares are portions of a whole share of a stock or fund, allowing investors to own less than one full unit. They make it possible to invest a specific dollar amount rather than buy whole shares, like buying a slice of a pizza instead of the entire pie. For investors this lowers the cost barrier, helps with diversification, and lets you reinvest dividends or purchase expensive stocks in small, precise amounts.
