Deferred Stock Units (DSUs) financial
"The Plan provides for payment of a portion or all of the annual compensation in Deferred Stock Units (DSUs)."
Deferred stock units (DSUs) are a form of long-term pay that promises an employee or director future company shares or cash equal to the share value at a later date, usually after leaving the company or at a set vesting time. Think of them as a delayed paycheck tied to the stock: they align recipients’ interests with long-term share performance and matter to investors because they create potential future dilution and signal how management is rewarded and incentivized.

"The reporting person acquired these stock units under the Carrier Global Corporation Board of Directors Deferred Stock Unit Plan (the Plan)..."
dividend equivalents financial
"the DSUs in the director's account under the Plan, including accrued dividend equivalents, are converted..."
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.

FAQ

What insider transaction did CARR director Michael McNamara report?

Director Michael McNamara reported receiving 3,637.9163 deferred stock units as part of his annual non-employee director compensation. These Director DSUs track Carrier Global common stock and represent a routine, compensation-related equity award rather than an open-market stock purchase or sale.

How many Carrier (CARR) deferred stock units does McNamara hold after this filing?

After this grant, Michael McNamara holds 43,220.3676 deferred stock units directly. These DSUs accumulate over time under Carrier’s board compensation plan and will eventually convert into an equal number of Carrier common shares when he leaves the board.

What is the value per deferred stock unit granted to the CARR director?

Each deferred stock unit in this grant is valued at $58.55 per unit. The award ties director compensation to Carrier Global’s share value, aligning a portion of his pay with long-term stock performance through stock-based instruments instead of immediate cash.

How does the Carrier (CARR) Board Deferred Stock Unit Plan work?

Under Carrier’s Board Deferred Stock Unit Plan, non-employee directors can receive annual compensation in deferred stock units. Upon resignation, removal, or retirement from the board, accumulated DSUs plus dividend equivalents convert one-for-one into Carrier common shares, delivered in a lump sum or installments.

Does this Form 4 show an open-market buy or sell of CARR shares?

This Form 4 does not show an open-market buy or sell. It reports a grant of deferred stock units as compensation, classified as a derivative award. The director acquires DSUs through the compensation plan rather than purchasing or selling Carrier shares in the market.

When will McNamara receive actual Carrier (CARR) shares from these DSUs?

McNamara will receive Carrier common shares when he resigns, is removed, or retires from the board. At that time, his DSUs, including any credited dividend equivalents, convert into the same number of shares, which are then distributed either in a lump sum or in installments.
