Phantom Stock financial
"Each share of phantom stock represents the right to the cash value of one share of Regions' common 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.

These were granted under Regions' Director Compensation Program and accrued in the Directors' Deferred Investment Plan, increasing her total phantom stock holdings to 171,054.0791 shares tied to Regions common stock value.

What is phantom stock in the Regions Financial (RF) director plan?

Each phantom stock share represents a right to the cash value of one Regions common share. It is not actual stock but a cash-settled compensation unit that tracks the common stock price, with value ultimately paid in cash according to the plan’s payout rules.

How and when will Ruth Ann Marshall’s Regions (RF) phantom stock be paid out?

The phantom stock is payable only in cash after Marshall’s service as a director ends. Payment occurs within 30 days after the close of the plan year of termination, either in one lump sum or up to 10 annual installments, based on her election.

Why did Ruth Ann Marshall receive phantom stock instead of cash from Regions (RF)?

Marshall elected to receive phantom stock in lieu of cash fees under Regions' Director Compensation Program. The fees that would be paid quarterly in cash are instead credited as phantom stock in the Directors' Deferred Investment Plan, deferring compensation and linking it to common stock value.

Do Regions Financial (RF) phantom stock units receive dividends?

Yes. The filing notes that quarterly cash dividends are deemed reinvested in phantom stock. This means dividend equivalents are credited as additional phantom stock units, increasing the total number of phantom shares accumulated over time in the deferred compensation account.
