Deferred Share Units financial

"Each deferred share unit (DSU) represents a contingent right"

Deferred share units are promises that give an executive or director the right to receive company shares or their cash value at a future date, often when they retire or leave the company. Think of them as a paycheck held in a savings account that converts into stock later; they matter to investors because they tie pay to long-term performance, create potential future dilution of shares, and represent a delayed cash or share obligation the company must eventually fulfill.
