Phantom shares financial
"Phantom shares are granted pursuant to the Petrobras Performance Award Program."
Phantom shares are a form of employee or executive compensation that mimics the economic value of owning company stock without actually issuing real shares; holders receive cash or equivalent payments tied to the company’s share price or dividends. Think of it like a receipt that pays out if the stock rises — it aligns managers’ interests with shareholders but does not dilute ownership, while creating a future cash obligation that investors should watch as it can affect company cash flow and valuation.
Petrobras Performance Award Program financial
"Phantom shares are granted pursuant to the Petrobras Performance Award Program."
weighted average financial
"Weighted average of the last 60 trading sessions of Petrobras common shares in 2025, resulting in 33.02 BRL."
A weighted average is a way of calculating an overall number when some items matter more than others by giving each item a different level of importance, or weight. Investors use weighted averages to combine figures like prices, returns or earnings so the result reflects the size or significance of each part — like grading a class where a final exam counts more than a quiz, producing a score that better represents true performance.
interest on equity financial
"Additional phantom shares are credited proportionally upon the payment of dividends or interest on equity by the company."
A payment a company makes to its shareholders that compensates them for the capital they provided, similar to how a lender receives interest on a loan. In some accounting or tax systems this payment is treated like interest rather than a regular dividend, which can change a company’s reported profit, cash flow and the taxable income of investors; that treatment affects shareholder returns and valuation.

He reported his holdings of phantom shares under Petrobras’ Performance Award Program. The filing shows 15,797.4800 phantom shares referenced to PETR3 common shares, reflecting compensation-related awards and credits rather than an open-market stock purchase or sale.

How many phantom shares linked to PETR3 does the Petrobras (PBR) CFO hold?

The CFO holds 15,797.4800 phantom shares referenced to PETR3 common shares. These instruments track Petrobras’ common share price and are part of a cash-settled long-term incentive structure rather than actual share ownership with voting or dividend rights.

How do Petrobras (PBR) phantom shares under the Performance Award Program vest?

Phantom shares vest over time, with the deferred portion of the award vesting in four equal annual installments. Once vested, they are settled in cash based on PETR3 common share prices, aligning executive compensation with the company’s market performance over multiple years.

Are the Petrobras (PBR) CFO’s phantom shares settled in stock or cash?

They are settled in cash upon vesting, not in Petrobras shares. The phantom shares are only a cash-based incentive referenced to PETR3 prices, so the filing does not reflect direct ownership changes in Petrobras stock or traditional share transactions in the market.

How are additional Petrobras (PBR) phantom shares credited to the CFO’s award?

Additional phantom shares are credited proportionally when Petrobras pays dividends or interest on equity. This mechanism adjusts the phantom share balance so the award mirrors the economic effect of holding PETR3 shares, while still being paid out in cash at vesting.

What price reference is used for Petrobras (PBR) phantom share awards in 2025?

The program uses a weighted average PETR3 price of 33.02 BRL over the last 60 trading sessions of 2025. A convenience conversion applies the Central Bank of Brazil exchange rate of 4.988 BRL per 1.00 USD, giving an equivalent U.S. dollar reference value.
