director deferral plan financial
"Reflects a distribution under a director deferral plan pursuant to previously made elections."
A director deferral plan lets board members delay receiving part or all of their pay—typically fees or equity—until a later date, with the deferred amount converted to cash or units that are paid out on a set future date or event. For investors, it signals how a company manages present cash flow and aligns directors’ interests with long-term performance, while creating future payment obligations or possible share dilution when those deferred amounts are settled—like choosing to take a future pension or stock grant instead of a paycheck today.
dividend equivalent units financial
"all related dividend equivalent units were distributed in the form of cash."
Dividend equivalent units are bookkeeping credits that mirror cash dividends paid on actual shares, granted to holders of stock-based awards such as restricted stock units or deferred compensation. They matter to investors because they increase a company’s reported employee compensation cost and can lead to issuance of more shares or cash payouts over time, similar to extra pay linked to ownership that affects shareholder dilution and corporate cash flow.
