Deferred Stock Unit financial
"Deferred stock units ("DSUs") granted pursuant to the PNC Directors Deferred Stock Unit Program"
A deferred stock unit (DSU) is a promise from a company to give an employee or director the value of a share at a future date, paid in actual shares or cash when certain conditions are met (such as retirement or a set date). Think of it like a gift card that converts to company stock later; it aligns pay with long‑term performance and can affect future share count, compensation expense and potential cash needs, so investors watch DSUs for their impact on dilution and company finances.

dividend equivalents financial
"Includes DSUs acquired by the reporting person as dividend equivalents under the Program"
Payments tied to employee or contractor equity awards that mirror the cash dividends paid on the company’s stock; they give the holder the same economic benefit as owning the shares without transferring actual shares—often paid in cash or additional award units when the award becomes payable. Investors care because these payments affect a company’s compensation costs, cash flow and potential share dilution, and they signal how management is being rewarded and aligned with shareholders.
