restricted stock financial
"tax liability upon the vesting of restricted stock pursuant to The J. M. Smucker Company 2020 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan"
Shares granted to an individual that carry limits on transfer or sale until certain conditions are met, such as staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance targets. Think of them as a locked gift that gradually opens; for investors they matter because they affect how many shares may enter the market later, signal management incentives and potential dilution, and reveal confidence in future company performance.
Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan financial
"pursuant to The J. M. Smucker Company 2020 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan"
tax liability financial
"withheld by the Company to satisfy tax liability upon the vesting of restricted stock"
GRAT financial
"nature_of_ownership": "By GRAT (2025)""
401(k) financial
"nature_of_ownership": "By 401(k)""
A 401(k) is a type of retirement savings plan offered by employers that allows workers to set aside a portion of their paycheck before taxes are taken out. The money saved in a 401(k) can grow over time through investments, helping individuals build funds for their future retirement. It matters to investors because it provides a tax-advantaged way to save and invest for long-term financial security.
beneficial ownership financial
"The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of these shares."
Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.
