Restricted Stock Units financial
"The Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs" or "Units") were granted on May 28, 2026 pursuant to the Mattel, Inc. Amended and Restated 2010 Equity and Long-Term Compensation Plan"
Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.
Phantom Stock financial
"Distributions from the Reporting Person's phantom stock account will be in the form of shares of Mattel, Inc. Common Stock equal in value to the value of the phantom stock account."
A phantom stock is a form of compensation that gives employees or executives the benefits of stock ownership, such as the increase in stock value, without actually giving them real shares. It acts like a promise to pay the employee the equivalent value of company stock later, often as a bonus or incentive. This allows companies to motivate and reward staff without diluting ownership or transferring actual shares.
dividend equivalent rights financial
"The RSUs are accompanied by dividend equivalent rights."
Dividend equivalent rights are promises that mirror the cash payments shareholders get from a company’s profits, but they are paid to holders of certain awards (like stock options or restricted stock units) rather than to actual shares. Think of them as a paycheck top‑up that matches dividends while the award is not yet a real stock, and they matter to investors because they add to employee compensation costs and potential share dilution, affecting company profitability and per‑share value.
Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors financial
"settled on the third anniversary of the date of grant or such later date in accordance with the terms of the Mattel, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors."
separation from service financial
"The phantom stock units will be settled in shares of Mattel, Inc. Common Stock following the Reporting Person's separation from service with Mattel, Inc."
