restricted stock grant financial

"Reflects restricted stock grant made by Steven Madden, Ltd."

A restricted stock grant is an award of company shares given to an employee or executive that cannot be sold or transferred until certain conditions are met, such as staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance goals. For investors, it signals how the company ties pay to future performance and can affect the number of shares outstanding and management’s incentives—think of it as a wrapped gift you only keep once you meet the requirements.

2019 Incentive Compensation Plan financial

"under the Steven Madden, Ltd. 2019 Incentive Compensation Plan (the "Plan")"

vest financial

"which stock will vest and cease to be restricted on May 20, 2027"

A vest is the process by which an employee earns the right to receive certain benefits or ownership interests, such as stock or retirement funds, over time. It’s similar to earning a reward gradually, ensuring that the benefit becomes fully yours only after a set period or meeting specific conditions. This makes it important for investors because it determines when they can actually claim or use those benefits.

forfeiture financial

"until fully vested will be subject to forfeiture pursuant to the terms of the Plan"
