Phantom Stock Units financial

"security_title: "Phantom Stock Units""

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.

Non-Employee Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan financial

"accrued under the First US Bancshares, Inc. Non-Employee Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan"

deferred compensation financial

"Deferred Compensation Plan and are to be settled in common stock at the end of the deferral period"

Deferred compensation is pay that employees or executives have earned now but will receive at a later date, such as delayed bonuses, retirement benefits, or stock grants. It matters to investors because it creates future obligations and shapes incentives—like a promise to pay later that can affect a company’s reported profits, cash needs and potential stock dilution—so it helps signal how a business manages costs and retains key people.
