Deferred Share Units financial

"Each Deferred Share Unit will be converted into a share of common stock upon settlement."

Deferred share units are promises that give an executive or director the right to receive company shares or their cash value at a future date, often when they retire or leave the company. Think of them as a paycheck held in a savings account that converts into stock later; they matter to investors because they tie pay to long-term performance, create potential future dilution of shares, and represent a delayed cash or share obligation the company must eventually fulfill.

"Includes deferred compensation and dividends reinvested under the 1987 Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors."

deferred compensation financial

"Includes deferred compensation and dividends reinvested under the 1987 Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors."

Deferred compensation is pay that employees or executives have earned now but will receive at a later date, such as delayed bonuses, retirement benefits, or stock grants. It matters to investors because it creates future obligations and shapes incentives—like a promise to pay later that can affect a company’s reported profits, cash needs and potential stock dilution—so it helps signal how a business manages costs and retains key people.

dividends reinvested financial

"Includes deferred compensation and dividends reinvested under the 1987 Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors."

settlement financial

"The Deferred Share Units become settleable when the reporting person ceases to be a director or at a future date previously specified."

Settlement is the process of completing a financial transaction, like buying or selling a stock, by transferring money and ownership between parties. It ensures that both the buyer gets the asset and the seller gets paid, making the deal official. Without settlement, the transaction wouldn't be finalized or legally recognized.
