Insights

Director deferred compensation increased by 325.4643 phantom units on 10/07/2025.

The reported acquisition reflects a routine deferral of director fees into the Director's Deferred Compensation Plan (DDCP), converting cash fees into phantom stock units that track common stock one‑for‑one. This aligns director compensation with shareholder outcomes without immediate share issuance.

Key dependencies include the DDCP settlement terms and the phantom units' conversion mechanics; the filing notes settlement will follow plan terms and that part of the balance arose from a dividend reinvestment feature. Monitor plan settlement timing and any future cash or share settlements for near‑term dilution signals.

The transaction was processed as an exempt plan transaction under Rule 16b‑3 and Rule 16a‑11.

The filing explicitly classifies the acquisition and dividend accruals as transactions exempt from short‑swing profit rules and other Section 16 restrictions, indicating standard plan mechanics rather than market purchases or sales. The reported per‑unit price of $115.22 is the attributable value used for reporting, not a market trade price.

Watch for future Form 4 filings that show settlement or conversion of these units into shares or cash, which would create a reportable disposition or acquisition event with potential investor interest in timing and magnitude.
