Class B Common Stock financial
"Each share of Class B Common Stock is convertible into one share of Class C"
A class B common stock is one of multiple types of a company’s ordinary shares that carries specific rights—often different voting power or dividend priority—compared with other classes. For investors it matters because those differences affect how much influence you have over company decisions, the income you might receive, and how freely the shares trade; think of it like owning a car with different keys: some keys let you start the engine and open the trunk, others only unlock the door.
Class C Common Stock financial
"shares of Class C Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share of Dell Technologies Inc."
A class C common stock is a type of company share that usually represents ownership but often carries limited or no voting power compared with other share classes. For investors, that matters because it can affect influence over company decisions and sometimes the stock’s price or dividend priority — think of it as owning a ticket to the same event but in a section with less say in how the event is run.
weighted average price financial
"The price reported in Column 4 is a weighted average price."
Weighted average price is the average price of a security where each trade or component is counted according to its size, so bigger trades pull the average more than smaller ones. Think of it like calculating the average cost of a grocery haul where items you bought more of have greater influence on the final per-item cost. Investors use it to understand the true average price paid or received, judge execution quality, and compare trading performance against market movement.
beneficially owned financial
"Represents shares of Class C Common Stock beneficially owned indirectly by Mr. Durban"
Beneficially owned describes securities or assets where a person has the economic rights and control—such as the right to receive dividends and to direct voting—even if legal title is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and using a car that’s registered to someone else: you get the benefits and make decisions. Investors care because beneficial ownership reveals who truly controls value and voting power, affecting corporate decisions and takeover dynamics.
