Deferred Stock Units financial
"Deferred Stock Units acquired pursuant to the AT&T Inc. Non-Employee Director Stock and Deferral Plan."
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.

"Deferred stock units acquired pursuant to the AT&T Inc. Non-Employee Director Stock and Deferral Plan."
Depositary Shares financial
"Each Depositary Share represents a 1/1,000th interest in a share of 4.750% Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series C."
Depositary shares are tradable certificates that represent a fractional piece of a larger security held by a third-party bank, like owning a slice of a single big pie instead of the whole pie. They let companies issue and investors buy smaller, more affordable portions of preferred stock or other instruments; holders usually receive proportional dividends and market pricing similar to ordinary shares, but may have limited voting rights and different liquidity or tax implications, which can affect income and resale value.
