What does it mean that each ZION deferred compensation unit is economically equivalent to one share?

Economic equivalence means each phantom stock unit tracks the value of one ZION common share. Quinn does not receive actual shares now; instead, he will receive cash in the future based on the share price corresponding to his accumulated units.

phantom stock units financial

"The phantom stock units are settled in cash upon the earlier of death or retirement."

Phantom stock units are company promises that pay a cash or stock-equivalent award tied to the firm’s share price or value growth, but they do not issue actual shares. Think of them as a bonus check that moves with the stock like a mirror rather than handing over an ownership slice. Investors care because these awards can affect a company’s future cash obligations, executive incentives and reported expenses without causing share dilution.
