phantom stock financial

"accrual to his account of 383 shares of phantom stock"

A phantom stock is a form of compensation that gives employees or executives the benefits of stock ownership, such as the increase in stock value, without actually giving them real shares. It acts like a promise to pay the employee the equivalent value of company stock later, often as a bonus or incentive. This allows companies to motivate and reward staff without diluting ownership or transferring actual shares.

defer receipt financial

"elected to defer receipt of quarterly director cash retainer fees"

accrual financial

"resulting in the accrual to his account"

Accrual is an accounting method that records income and expenses when they are earned or owed, not necessarily when cash changes hands. For investors it shows the true timing of a company’s performance—like writing down a bill when you receive the service even if you’ll pay later—so balance sheets and profits reflect ongoing obligations and receivables rather than just bank account activity.
