Restricted Stock Units financial
"Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of TTC common stock."
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.
dividend reinvestment feature financial
"Includes 0.004 shares of common stock acquired under the dividend reinvestment feature of the The Toro Company Retirement Plan"
The Toro Company Retirement Plan financial
"acquired under the dividend reinvestment feature of the The Toro Company Retirement Plan since the date of her last report."
dividend equivalents financial
"The restricted stock units and related dividend equivalents vest in three equal annual installments"
Payments tied to employee or contractor equity awards that mirror the cash dividends paid on the company’s stock; they give the holder the same economic benefit as owning the shares without transferring actual shares—often paid in cash or additional award units when the award becomes payable. Investors care because these payments affect a company’s compensation costs, cash flow and potential share dilution, and they signal how management is being rewarded and aligned with shareholders.
tax-withholding disposition financial
"Payment of exercise price or tax liability by delivering securities"
A tax-withholding disposition is an event or transaction—such as selling or transferring securities, exercising options, or receiving compensation—that triggers a requirement to hold back part of the payment and remit it to tax authorities. It matters to investors because it reduces the cash they receive immediately and can change the timing and amount of taxable income, like a cashier taking a portion of your sale proceeds to pay taxes before you get the rest.
