Deferred Compensation financial

"Price, allocation to Insider's account, and shares payable pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Peoples Bancorp Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors"

Deferred compensation is pay that employees or executives have earned now but will receive at a later date, such as delayed bonuses, retirement benefits, or stock grants. It matters to investors because it creates future obligations and shapes incentives—like a promise to pay later that can affect a company’s reported profits, cash needs and potential stock dilution—so it helps signal how a business manages costs and retains key people.

Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors financial

"terms and conditions of the Peoples Bancorp Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of Peoples Bancorp Inc. and Subsidiaries"

A deferred compensation plan for directors is an arrangement that lets board members postpone receiving part of their pay until a later date—often retirement or a set future time—so the money can grow or be paid under specified conditions. Think of it like directing a portion of your paycheck into a locked savings account that pays out later; investors care because it creates future cash or stock obligations, signals how the company motivates and retains leadership, and can affect shareholder value through timing of payouts or potential dilution.

quarterly retainer financial

"Represents Board meeting fees and quarterly retainer paid in stock as part of non-employee director compensation."
