Units financial
""Units" mean ownership interests in Cactus Companies, LLC ("Cactus Companies")."
Units are bundled securities sold as one package in a financing—commonly a share paired with an instrument that gives the holder the right to buy more shares later. For investors this matters because a unit’s extra component can change future supply of shares and potential returns, similar to buying a combo with a coupon that can be redeemed later and alter what you actually receive and what others might own.
Class B Common Stock financial
"Cactus Enterprises distributed Class B Common Stock to such members."
A class B common stock is one of multiple types of a company’s ordinary shares that carries specific rights—often different voting power or dividend priority—compared with other classes. For investors it matters because those differences affect how much influence you have over company decisions, the income you might receive, and how freely the shares trade; think of it like owning a car with different keys: some keys let you start the engine and open the trunk, others only unlock the door.
