Phantom Units financial
"The payment of the phantom units in cash is deemed to be a disposition of the phantom units in exchange for the acquisition of the underlying Common Units - Class A."
Phantom units are a form of employee compensation that mimics ownership in a company without issuing real shares: recipients receive cash or stock value tied to the company’s share price or performance when the units vest. They matter to investors because phantom units align employee incentives with shareholder value while avoiding share dilution; however, they create future cash obligations and can affect a company’s financial statements and cash flow.
Common Units - Class A financial
"The payment of the phantom units in cash is deemed to be a disposition of the phantom units in exchange for the acquisition of the underlying Common Units - Class A."
derivative security financial
"Exercise or conversion of derivative security"
A derivative security is a financial contract whose value comes from the price or performance of something else, such as a stock, bond, commodity, or market index. For investors it acts like an insurance policy or a wager: it can be used to protect against losses, lock in prices, or amplify gains and losses, so it can change a portfolio’s risk and potential return without owning the underlying asset directly.
distribution equivalent rights financial
"Award includes tandem distribution equivalent rights pursuant to which the quarterly distributions paid by the partnership on each Common Unit - Class A will be accrued over the vesting period and paid quarterly."
