Insights
Director reported non-cash compensation in the form of DEUs on 09/30/2025.
The Form 4 discloses four DEU acquisitions tied to deferred compensation and past board service, totaling multiple incremental share credits on 09/30/2025. These units are non‑cash, accrue at the company’s dividend rate, and are payable in Prologis common stock per the NQDC Plan.
This matters because these entries update beneficial ownership records and reflect routine director compensation mechanics rather than open‑market trading.
Transactions are vesting/payment mechanics for DSUs/phantom shares, not exercised options or market purchases.
The filing explicitly describes DEUs that "vest upon issuance" or per plan vesting schedules and that DEUs and DSUs/phantom shares are paid at a rate of one common share per unit. Reported post‑transaction balances (e.g., 45,193.2325) aggregate the underlying deferred instruments.
For investors, these are administrative equity accruals reflecting deferred board pay; they do not represent cash flows or open‑market acquisitions.
