phantom stock financial

"additional theoretical common shares (i.e., phantom stock)"

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.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan financial

"Methode Electronics, Inc. Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan"

A nonqualified deferred compensation plan is an arrangement where an employer lets select employees postpone receiving part of their pay or bonuses until a future date, often at retirement, so taxes are paid later. It matters to investors because these payouts are typically unsecured promises by the company—like an internal IOU—so they create future cash obligations and expose the company to extra liability risk if the business falters, and they also reveal how executives are being paid and motivated.

Restricted Stock Units financial

"Restricted Stock Units granted under the Company's 2026 Omnibus Incentive 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.
