Today is part two of our series on restricted stock. Last week we talked about restricted stock units and this week we are talking restricted stock. You may hear it referred to as restricted stock awards, restricted stock grants, or stock grants. However, for this episode, we will simply stick with restricted stock. Now, you may be wondering what the difference is and why does it matter? Well, that is precisely what you will take away from today’s show. You’ll also learn about some of the benefits that come along with the RSA that you won’t get with the RSU so be sure to check out episode 19 of the Equity Compensation Guidebook!
