Deferred Shares financial

"Each Deferred Share is the economic equivalent of one Common Share."

Deferred shares are a class of stock whose economic benefits or certain shareholder rights are delayed or paid later than ordinary shares—for example, dividends may be paid only after other shareholders receive theirs, or voting or redemption rights may be postponed. For investors, that timing difference matters because deferred shares typically offer lower near-term income and different risk, affecting expected returns, priority in payouts, and the share’s market value; think of them like a delayed paycheck compared with a regular salary.

Directors' Deferred Share Sub-Plan financial

"Under the terms of KeyCorp's Amended and Restated Directors' Deferred Share Sub-Plan of the KeyCorp 2026 Equity Compensation Plan"

KeyCorp 2026 Equity Compensation Plan financial

"Amended and Restated Directors' Deferred Share Sub-Plan of the KeyCorp 2026 Equity Compensation Plan"

dividend-equivalent deferred shares financial

"Includes approximately 401 dividend-equivalent deferred shares accrued under the Deferred Share Plan"

Deferred Share Plan financial

"The Deferred Shares were awarded under the Deferred Share Plan."

A deferred share plan is a company program that promises employees or executives shares or the cash value of shares at a future date, often contingent on meeting performance goals or staying with the firm. Think of it like a bonus you earn now but receive later; investors watch these plans because they affect potential share dilution, reveal how management is being motivated, and signal whether pay incentives align with long‑term shareholder value.
