Phantom Stock Units financial

"The reported phantom stock units were acquired under the Corporation's supplemental 401(k) plan"

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.

supplemental 401(k) plan financial

"acquired under the Corporation's supplemental 401(k) plan and are to be settled"

derivative security financial

"The reported phantom stock units were acquired as a derivative security linked to common stock"

A derivative security is a financial contract whose value comes from the price or performance of something else, such as a stock, bond, commodity, or market index. For investors it acts like an insurance policy or a wager: it can be used to protect against losses, lock in prices, or amplify gains and losses, so it can change a portfolio’s risk and potential return without owning the underlying asset directly.
