Supplemental Deferred Compensation Plan financial
"acquired under the Caterpillar Inc. Supplemental Deferred Compensation Plan"
phantom stock units financial
"Each phantom stock unit under the company's non-qualified deferred compensation plans"
Phantom stock units are company promises that pay a cash or stock-equivalent award tied to the firm’s share price or value growth, but they do not issue actual shares. Think of them as a bonus check that moves with the stock like a mirror rather than handing over an ownership slice. Investors care because these awards can affect a company’s future cash obligations, executive incentives and reported expenses without causing share dilution.
unfunded unitized company stock fund financial
"interests in an unfunded unitized company stock fund comprised of stock and cash"
Long-Term Incentive Plan financial
"pursuant to the Caterpillar Inc. 2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan"
A long-term incentive plan is a company program that pays executives or employees with stock, options, or cash tied to multi-year performance goals, where the rewards become theirs only after meeting conditions over time. Think of it as a delayed bonus or retirement-style reward that aligns employees’ interests with shareholders by encouraging them to boost long-term value; investors watch these plans because they affect pay costs, share dilution and management incentives.
