Phantom Stock Units financial
"Phantom stock units represent interests in an unfunded unitized company stock fund"
Phantom stock units are company promises that pay a cash or stock-equivalent award tied to the firm’s share price or value growth, but they do not issue actual shares. Think of them as a bonus check that moves with the stock like a mirror rather than handing over an ownership slice. Investors care because these awards can affect a company’s future cash obligations, executive incentives and reported expenses without causing share dilution.
Deferred Compensation Plan financial
"Total of all phantom stock units held by the reporting person in the ... Deferred Compensation Plan"
A deferred compensation plan is an arrangement where an employer agrees to pay part of an employee’s pay or bonus at a later date instead of immediately, often to reduce current tax bills or to tie rewards to long-term performance. For investors it matters because these promises create future cash obligations and influence executive incentives and retention; they can affect a company’s reported liabilities, cash flow planning and the risk profile if the business faces financial trouble.
dividend reinvestment program financial
"Shares acquired by the reporting person under the PPG Industries dividend reinvestment program"
A dividend reinvestment program lets investors automatically use cash dividends to buy more shares of the same company instead of taking the money as cash. Think of it like an automatic savings plan that turns small payouts into additional ownership, often including fractional shares, which can speed up compound growth and reduce the need for manual buying decisions — a convenience that can boost long-term returns for shareholders.
