Deferred Stock Units financial
"Represents Deferred Stock Units ("DSUs") under the MGM Resorts International (the "Company") Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors."
Deferred stock units are promises from a company to give an employee shares of stock at a future date, often after certain conditions are met or after leaving the company. They function like a form of delayed compensation, allowing employees to earn shares over time. For investors, they represent potential future ownership in the company, but do not provide immediate voting rights or dividends until the shares are actually received.
Restricted Stock Units financial
"Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") granted under the MGM Resorts International ("Company") 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "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.

grantor trust financial
"nature_of_ownership": "By grantor trust""
A grantor trust is a legal arrangement where the person who puts assets into the trust keeps enough control or rights that, for tax and legal purposes, those assets are treated as still belonging to that person. For investors, that matters because income, gains and losses generated by the trust typically flow through to the grantor (or directly to investors) for tax reporting and distributions, affecting after-tax returns and cash flow predictability — think of it like a mailbox that forwards all the mail back to the sender rather than holding it inside.
