Phantom shares financial
"Phantom shares are granted pursuant to the Petrobras Performance Award Program."
Phantom shares are a form of employee or executive compensation that mimics the economic value of owning company stock without actually issuing real shares; holders receive cash or equivalent payments tied to the company’s share price or dividends. Think of it like a receipt that pays out if the stock rises — it aligns managers’ interests with shareholders but does not dilute ownership, while creating a future cash obligation that investors should watch as it can affect company cash flow and valuation.
Petrobras Performance Award Program financial
"Phantom shares are granted pursuant to the Petrobras Performance Award Program."
underlying security title financial
"The phantom shares are referenced to the PETR3 common share price and are settled in cash upon vesting."
record date financial
"Additional phantom shares credited as a result of dividend payment by Petrobras (record date of April 22, 2026)."
The record date is the specific day when a company determines which shareholders are eligible to receive a dividend or participate in an upcoming vote. It’s like a cutoff date; if you own the stock on that day, you get the benefits or voting rights. This date matters because it decides who qualifies for certain company benefits.
interest on equity financial
"Additional phantom shares are credited proportionally upon the payment of dividends or interest on equity by the company."
A payment a company makes to its shareholders that compensates them for the capital they provided, similar to how a lender receives interest on a loan. In some accounting or tax systems this payment is treated like interest rather than a regular dividend, which can change a company’s reported profit, cash flow and the taxable income of investors; that treatment affects shareholder returns and valuation.
