Dividend Equivalent Units financial

"Consists of dividend equivalent units ("DEUs") accrued on restricted stock units"

restricted stock units financial

"accrued on restricted stock units ("RSUs") and/or deferred stock units"

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.

deferred stock units financial

"RSUs and/or deferred stock units ("DSUs") previously granted to the Reporting Person"

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.

Restricted Stock and Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors financial

"previously granted to the Reporting Person under the Sylvamo Corporation Restricted Stock and Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors"

vesting financial

"The DEUs will vest and be settled on the same terms and conditions as the original RSUs or DSUs"

Vesting is the process by which you earn full ownership of something, like company stock or a retirement benefit, over time. It’s like earning the right to keep a gift piece by piece the longer you stay with a company, making sure employees stay committed before they receive all the benefits.
