Stock Credits financial

"The stock credits become payable in common stock (i) in the event of a change of control"

change of control financial

"become payable in common stock (i) in the event of a change of control of the company"

A change of control occurs when the ownership or management of a company shifts significantly, such as through a sale, merger, or acquisition, resulting in new leadership or ownership structure. This change can impact the company's direction and decision-making, which is important for investors because it may affect the company's stability, strategy, and future prospects.

dividend reinvestment financial

"stock credits acquired pursuant to a dividend reinvestment feature of the Kennametal Inc. Directors Stock Incentive Plan"

Dividend reinvestment is when the money earned from a company's profit sharing, called dividends, is automatically used to buy more shares of that company instead of being received as cash. This process helps investors grow their holdings over time without extra effort, much like using earned interest to buy more of a savings account. It encourages long-term investment growth by continuously increasing the amount of shares owned.
