Deferred Stock Units (DSUs) financial
"Represents Dividend Equivalent Units (DEUs) earned on Deferred Stock Units (DSUs) associated with current service on our board"
Deferred stock units (DSUs) are a form of long-term pay that promises an employee or director future company shares or cash equal to the share value at a later date, usually after leaving the company or at a set vesting time. Think of them as a delayed paycheck tied to the stock: they align recipients’ interests with long-term share performance and matter to investors because they create potential future dilution and signal how management is rewarded and incentivized.
Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan financial
"deferred under the Prologis, Inc. Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the NQDC Plan)"
A nonqualified deferred compensation plan is an arrangement where an employer lets select employees postpone receiving part of their pay or bonuses until a future date, often at retirement, so taxes are paid later. It matters to investors because these payouts are typically unsecured promises by the company—like an internal IOU—so they create future cash obligations and expose the company to extra liability risk if the business falters, and they also reveal how executives are being paid and motivated.
