Deferred Share Units (DSUs) financial

"Grant of Deferred Share Units (DSUs). Each DSU is the economic equivalent"

Deferred share units (DSUs) are a form of long-term compensation that give an executive or director a payable claim whose value moves with the company’s stock price but is not paid out until a later date, often when they leave the company. Think of a DSU as an IOU tied to the share price that becomes cash or shares in the future; investors watch DSUs because they affect potential share dilution, the timing of cash outflows, and whether management’s interests align with long-term shareholder value.
