Context Deferred stock units are a common form of director compensation that give the recipient the right to receive shares (or their cash value) at a later date—here, upon retirement—rather than transferring shares immediately. Because these are awards that vest now but only settle on retirement, they do not represent an open-market purchase or sale and shouldn’t be interpreted on their own as a bullish or bearish signal.
