Key Terms

3 terms

dividend equivalents financial

"Represents dividend equivalents earned on the prior RSU grant awards."

Payments tied to employee or contractor equity awards that mirror the cash dividends paid on the company’s stock; they give the holder the same economic benefit as owning the shares without transferring actual shares—often paid in cash or additional award units when the award becomes payable. Investors care because these payments affect a company’s compensation costs, cash flow and potential share dilution, and they signal how management is being rewarded and aligned with shareholders.

RSU financial

"Represents dividend equivalents earned on the prior RSU grant awards."

Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a form of company shares given to employees as part of their compensation, usually with certain restrictions or conditions, such as remaining with the company for a set period. When these restrictions lift, employees receive actual shares that they can sell or hold. For investors, RSUs can impact a company's stock supply and reflect the company's commitment to attracting and retaining talent.
