Deferred Stock Units financial

"acquired 1,466 Deferred Stock Units"

Deferred stock units are promises from a company to give an employee shares of stock at a future date, often after certain conditions are met or after leaving the company. They function like a form of delayed compensation, allowing employees to earn shares over time. For investors, they represent potential future ownership in the company, but do not provide immediate voting rights or dividends until the shares are actually received.

dividend reinvestment plan financial

"shares acquired under the Company's dividend reinvestment plan"

A dividend reinvestment plan lets shareholders automatically use cash dividends to buy more shares of the same company instead of receiving the money. It matters to investors because it turns regular payouts into a steady way to grow ownership and take advantage of compound returns—like having your savings automatically buy additional slices of a pie over time—while often reducing transaction costs and smoothing purchase timing.

Common Shares financial

"payable in Common Shares at a rate of 1-for-1"

Common shares are the basic units of ownership in a company that give holders a claim on profits and a right to vote on key matters, like electing the board. Think of them as membership cards in a club: they let you share in successes and losses, but in a bankruptcy or liquidation they are paid after creditors and preferred shareholders, so their value can swing more and matters for assessing risk and potential return.
