Phantom Stock financial

"The phantom shares are immediately vested, but subject to a minimum 1-year deferral."

A phantom stock is a form of compensation that gives employees or executives the benefits of stock ownership, such as the increase in stock value, without actually giving them real shares. It acts like a promise to pay the employee the equivalent value of company stock later, often as a bonus or incentive. This allows companies to motivate and reward staff without diluting ownership or transferring actual shares.

Deferred Stock Compensation Plan financial

"Includes phantom stock acquired through the reinvestment feature under the DTE Energy Company Deferred Stock Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors."

"Includes phantom stock acquired through the reinvestment feature under the DTE Energy Company Deferred Stock Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors."

Is the DTE Energy (DTE) phantom stock grant to Charles G. McClure a stock purchase?

No, the 1,230 phantom stock units granted to Charles G. McClure are a compensation award, not a market purchase. The Form 4 lists a grant/award acquisition with a price of $0.00 per unit, reflecting non-cash, compensation-related equity exposure rather than insider buying.

In this filing, 1-for-1 means each phantom stock unit corresponds to one share of DTE Energy common stock. The units track the value of the underlying shares for compensation purposes, but they are not themselves traded on the market like regular stock.

The phantom shares are immediately vested but subject to at least a one-year deferral period. This means McClure’s right to the value is earned now, yet actual payout is postponed for a minimum of one year under the deferred compensation plan’s rules.

What plan governs the phantom stock reported in the DTE (DTE) Form 4 for Charles G. McClure?

The phantom stock is held under the DTE Energy Company Deferred Stock Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors. The filing notes that the total includes phantom stock acquired through the plan’s reinvestment feature, which credits additional units as amounts are reinvested.
