Stock Equivalent Units financial

"Director fees credited to a stock equivalent unit account and paid, in cash, generally at age 65 or upon retirement from the board."

Stock equivalent units are financial claims or instruments that are treated as if they were actual shares for purposes like calculating ownership, dilution, and earnings per share. Think of them as promises or placeholders for future slices of company pie—options, restricted units, or convertible securities—that don’t yet sit on the table but will reduce each existing slice when converted. Investors track them because they change how much of a company each share really represents and can affect valuation and voting power.
