phantom stock financial

"The theoretical WOR common shares ("phantom stock") credited to the reporting person's account..."

A phantom stock is a form of compensation that gives employees or executives the benefits of stock ownership, such as the increase in stock value, without actually giving them real shares. It acts like a promise to pay the employee the equivalent value of company stock later, often as a bonus or incentive. This allows companies to motivate and reward staff without diluting ownership or transferring actual shares.

Deferred Compensation Plan financial

"credited to the reporting person's account in the Worthington Industries, Inc. Amended and Restated 2005 Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors..."

A deferred compensation plan is an arrangement where an employer agrees to pay part of an employee’s pay or bonus at a later date instead of immediately, often to reduce current tax bills or to tie rewards to long-term performance. For investors it matters because these promises create future cash obligations and influence executive incentives and retention; they can affect a company’s reported liabilities, cash flow planning and the risk profile if the business faces financial trouble.

dividend reinvestment feature financial

"includes the additional unfunded theoretical common shares (i.e., phantom stock) credited pursuant to the dividend reinvestment feature of the 2005 NQ Plan..."

unfunded theoretical common shares financial
