"Each share of phantom stock is the economic equivalent of one share of Movado Group, Inc. common stock."
Deferred Compensation Plan financial
"Phantom stock units acquired under issuer's Deferred Compensation Plan distributable in equal annual installments for 10 years"
A deferred compensation plan is an arrangement where an employer agrees to pay part of an employee’s pay or bonus at a later date instead of immediately, often to reduce current tax bills or to tie rewards to long-term performance. For investors it matters because these promises create future cash obligations and influence executive incentives and retention; they can affect a company’s reported liabilities, cash flow planning and the risk profile if the business faces financial trouble.
