Depository Shares financial
"Each depository share represents a 1/40th interest in a share"
Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock financial
"Series A Fixed Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value"
Non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock is a type of investment that pays a fixed dividend forever, without a set end date. If the company skips some dividends in a year, you don’t get that money later, and it’s gone forever. It matters because investors get regular income but may miss out if the company faces financial trouble.
liquidation preference financial
"with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share"
A liquidation preference is a rule that determines who gets paid first and how much they receive when a company is sold, goes bankrupt, or distributes its assets. It gives certain investors a priority claim—often returning their original investment plus any agreed multiple—before other owners receive money, which shapes how much common shareholders and founders ultimately get; think of it as a front-of-the-line pass that affects payout order and investor returns.
pecuniary interest financial
"disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest"
Irrevocable Asset Trust financial
"By trust, BMAC Irrevocable Asset Trust, Bruce McAnally Trustee"
