Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Digital Realty Trust, Inc. (DLR) filed a Form 4 reporting that Director VeraLinn Jamieson acquired 143 Long-Term Incentive Units (profits-interest units) on 06/30/2025. These derivative securities were received under transaction code A (grant/acquisition) at an exercise price of $0. Following the award, the director now directly holds 12,797 LTIP units.

Each LTIP unit is convertible on a 1-for-1 basis into common limited partnership units of Digital Realty Trust, L.P. (“Common Units”) once vesting and parity conditions are met. Common Units are, in turn, redeemable for cash equal to the fair-market value of one share of DLR common stock, or—at the issuer’s discretion—for one share of common stock. No common stock was sold; the filing solely reflects an equity incentive grant, resulting in no immediate cash outlay and negligible dilution to existing shareholders.

The transaction is routine for board compensation and does not materially alter the company’s capital structure or insider ownership profile.

Digital Realty Trust, Inc. (DLR) ha depositato un Modulo 4 segnalando che la Direttrice VeraLinn Jamieson ha acquisito 143 Unità di Incentivo a Lungo Termine (unità di interesse sui profitti) il 30/06/2025. Questi strumenti derivati sono stati ricevuti con il codice transazione A (concessione/acquisizione) a un prezzo di esercizio di $0. Dopo l’assegnazione, la direttrice detiene ora direttamente 12.797 unità LTIP.

Ogni unità LTIP è convertibile in un rapporto 1 a 1 in unità comuni di società in accomandita semplice di Digital Realty Trust, L.P. (“Unità Comuni”) una volta soddisfatte le condizioni di maturazione e parità. Le Unità Comuni sono, a loro volta, riscattabili in contanti pari al valore di mercato equo di una azione ordinaria DLR, oppure – a discrezione dell’emittente – in una azione ordinaria. Non è stata venduta alcuna azione ordinaria; il deposito riflette esclusivamente una concessione di incentivo azionario, senza alcuna esborso immediato di denaro e una diluizione trascurabile per gli azionisti esistenti.

La transazione è una prassi comune per la remunerazione del consiglio e non altera sostanzialmente la struttura del capitale della società né il profilo di proprietà degli insider.

Digital Realty Trust, Inc. (DLR) presentó un Formulario 4 informando que la Directora VeraLinn Jamieson adquirió 143 Unidades de Incentivo a Largo Plazo (unidades de interés en las ganancias) el 30/06/2025. Estos valores derivados se recibieron bajo el código de transacción A (concesión/adquisición) con un precio de ejercicio de $0. Tras la adjudicación, la directora posee ahora directamente 12,797 unidades LTIP.

Cada unidad LTIP es convertible en una proporción 1 a 1 en unidades comunes de sociedad comanditaria limitada de Digital Realty Trust, L.P. (“Unidades Comunes”) una vez que se cumplen las condiciones de adquisición y paridad. Las Unidades Comunes, a su vez, son canjeables por efectivo equivalente al valor justo de mercado de una acción común de DLR, o —a discreción del emisor— por una acción común. No se vendió ninguna acción común; la presentación refleja únicamente una concesión de incentivo de capital, sin ningún desembolso de efectivo inmediato y una dilución insignificante para los accionistas existentes.

La transacción es habitual para la compensación del consejo y no altera materialmente la estructura de capital de la empresa ni el perfil de propiedad de los insiders.

Digital Realty Trust, Inc. (DLR)는 이사 VeraLinn Jamieson2025년 6월 30일143개의 장기 인센티브 유닛(이익참가 유닛)을 취득했다고 Form 4를 제출했습니다. 이 파생 증권은 거래 코드 A(부여/취득)로 행사가격 $0에 수령되었습니다. 수여 후, 이사는 현재 직접 12,797개의 LTIP 유닛을 보유하고 있습니다.

각 LTIP 유닛은 베스팅 및 동등 조건 충족 시 1대1 비율로 Digital Realty Trust, L.P.의 일반 유한 파트너십 유닛(“일반 유닛”)으로 전환 가능합니다. 일반 유닛은 다시 DLR 보통주 1주에 해당하는 공정 시장 가치에 상응하는 현금으로 상환 가능하며, 발행자의 재량에 따라 보통주 1주로 교환할 수도 있습니다. 보통주는 판매되지 않았으며, 이번 제출은 주식 인센티브 부여만을 반영하여 즉각적인 현금 지출 없이 기존 주주에 대한 희석 효과도 미미합니다.

이번 거래는 이사회 보상과 관련된 일상적인 절차로서 회사의 자본 구조나 내부자 소유 구조에 실질적인 변화를 주지 않습니다.

Digital Realty Trust, Inc. (DLR) a déposé un formulaire 4 indiquant que la directrice VeraLinn Jamieson a acquis 143 unités d'incitation à long terme (unités d'intérêt sur les bénéfices) le 30/06/2025. Ces titres dérivés ont été reçus sous le code de transaction A (octroi/acquisition) à un prix d'exercice de 0 $. Suite à cette attribution, la directrice détient désormais directement 12 797 unités LTIP.

Chaque unité LTIP est convertible à raison d'une pour une en parts communes de la société en commandite Digital Realty Trust, L.P. (« Parts Communes ») une fois les conditions d'acquisition et de parité remplies. Les Parts Communes sont, à leur tour, rachetables contre un montant en espèces égal à la juste valeur marchande d'une action ordinaire DLR, ou — à la discrétion de l'émetteur — contre une action ordinaire. Aucune action ordinaire n'a été vendue ; le dépôt reflète uniquement une attribution d'incitation en actions, sans aucune dépense en espèces immédiate et une dilution négligeable pour les actionnaires existants.

Cette opération est courante dans le cadre de la rémunération du conseil d'administration et ne modifie pas de manière significative la structure du capital de la société ni le profil de détention des initiés.

Digital Realty Trust, Inc. (DLR) hat ein Formular 4 eingereicht, in dem berichtet wird, dass Direktorin VeraLinn Jamieson am 30.06.2025 143 langfristige Anreiz-Einheiten (Gewinnbeteiligungseinheiten) erworben hat. Diese derivativen Wertpapiere wurden unter dem Transaktionscode A (Gewährung/Erwerb) zu einem Ausübungspreis von 0 $ erhalten. Nach der Zuteilung hält die Direktorin nun direkt 12.797 LTIP-Einheiten.

Jede LTIP-Einheit ist nach Erfüllung der Vesting- und Paritätsbedingungen im Verhältnis 1:1 in gewöhnliche Kommanditanteile von Digital Realty Trust, L.P. („Stammanteile“) umwandelbar. Die Stammanteile sind wiederum gegen Bargeld in Höhe des fairen Marktwerts einer DLR-Stammaktie einlösbar oder – nach Ermessen des Emittenten – gegen eine Stammaktie eintauschbar. Es wurden keine Stammaktien verkauft; die Meldung spiegelt ausschließlich eine Gewährung von Aktienanreizen wider, die keine sofortigen Barausgaben und eine vernachlässigbare Verwässerung für bestehende Aktionäre zur Folge hat.

Die Transaktion ist routinemäßig für die Vergütung des Vorstands und verändert die Kapitalstruktur oder das Insiderbesitzprofil des Unternehmens nicht wesentlich.

Insights

TL;DR: Routine 143-unit equity grant; immaterial to valuation.

The Form 4 shows Jamieson added 143 LTIP units—roughly 0.001% of DLR’s ~380 million fully diluted share equivalent—bringing her derivative tally to 12,797 units. The grant has no strike price, so there is no cash cost to the director and minimal dilution to shareholders. Such equity awards are standard components of director compensation and align insider incentives with long-term shareholder value. From a valuation or liquidity standpoint, the filing is non-material, offering neither bullish nor bearish signal.

TL;DR: Governance-aligned incentive; neutral market impact.

The award reinforces best-practice governance by compensating outside directors with performance-linked LTIP units rather than cash. Because units vest only after specific hurdles and convert 1-for-1 into partnership units, the structure encourages long-term oversight. However, given the small size and absence of disposals, investors should view this as routine board remuneration, not an indicator of management sentiment or operational change.
