Restricted Stock Units financial
"the Reporting Person received a grant of 60,910 Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs" or "Units")"
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.
tax withholding financial
"shares of Mattel, Inc. Common Stock were automatically withheld at vesting to cover required tax withholding"
Tax withholding is the practice of taking a portion of a payment—such as wages, dividends, or sale proceeds—before it reaches the recipient and sending that portion to the tax authority as an advance on the recipient’s eventual tax bill. For investors it matters because withholding reduces immediate cash received and affects after‑tax returns, estimated tax payments, and whether you may owe more or receive a refund when taxes are finally calculated, like having a small automatic savings set aside for your tax bill.
Mattel Stock Fund financial
"a balance of $281,128.60 in the Mattel Stock Fund of Mattel, Inc.'s 401(k) plan"
Personal Investment Plan ("PIP") financial
"Mattel, Inc.'s 401(k) plan, the Personal Investment Plan ("PIP")"
tax-withholding disposition financial
"transaction_action": "tax-withholding disposition""
A tax-withholding disposition is an event or transaction—such as selling or transferring securities, exercising options, or receiving compensation—that triggers a requirement to hold back part of the payment and remit it to tax authorities. It matters to investors because it reduces the cash they receive immediately and can change the timing and amount of taxable income, like a cashier taking a portion of your sale proceeds to pay taxes before you get the rest.
