Dividend Equivalent Units financial
"Consists of dividend equivalent units ("DEUs") accrued on restricted stock units"
Dividend equivalent units are bookkeeping credits that mirror cash dividends paid on actual shares, granted to holders of stock-based awards such as restricted stock units or deferred compensation. They matter to investors because they increase a company’s reported employee compensation cost and can lead to issuance of more shares or cash payouts over time, similar to extra pay linked to ownership that affects shareholder dilution and corporate cash flow.
restricted stock units financial
"DEUs accrued on restricted stock units ("RSUs") previously granted"
Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.
subject to vesting financial
"Each DEU represents the right to receive, subject to vesting, one share"
