Dividend Equivalent Rights financial
"The dividend equivalent rights accrued on previously awarded restricted stock units"
Dividend equivalent rights are promises that mirror the cash payments shareholders get from a company’s profits, but they are paid to holders of certain awards (like stock options or restricted stock units) rather than to actual shares. Think of them as a paycheck top‑up that matches dividends while the award is not yet a real stock, and they matter to investors because they add to employee compensation costs and potential share dilution, affecting company profitability and per‑share value.
restricted stock units ("RSUs") financial
"accrued on previously awarded restricted stock units ("RSUs") and vest proportionately"
Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a company promise to give an employee shares of stock (or cash equivalent) in the future, but only after certain conditions—usually staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance goals—are met. Investors watch RSUs because when they vest they increase the number of shares outstanding and can lead insiders to sell shares, affecting share price, company dilution and the true cost of employee pay.
Common Stock financial
"Each dividend equivalent right is the economic equivalent of one share of Allison Transmission Holdings, Inc. common stock"
Common stock represents ownership shares in a company, giving investors a stake in its success and a say in important decisions through voting rights. It is the most common type of stock traded on markets and can provide income through dividends, as well as potential for value growth. For investors, holding common stock means sharing in the company’s profits and risks.

How many Dividend Equivalent Rights did Shivram Krishna acquire in the ALSN filing?

He acquired 3 Dividend Equivalent Rights in this transaction. After the grant, he directly holds 3 such derivative rights, each corresponding to one share of Allison Transmission common stock, and they will vest proportionately with the related restricted stock units over time.

Are the Dividend Equivalent Rights in the ALSN Form 4 the same as common stock?

They are not actual shares but are economically equivalent to common stock. Each right mirrors the value of one share of Allison Transmission common stock and accrues on existing RSUs, vesting on the same schedule as those underlying restricted stock units.

Does this ALSN Form 4 indicate an open-market buy or sell of shares?

No, it shows a compensation-related acquisition rather than a market trade. The Form 4 records a grant of 3 Dividend Equivalent Rights linked to existing RSUs, not a purchase or sale of Allison Transmission common stock on the open market.

How do the Dividend Equivalent Rights in this ALSN filing vest over time?
