dividend equivalent rights financial
"Represents dividend equivalent rights ("DERs") in connection with the Issuer's quarterly dividend"
Dividend equivalent rights are promises that mirror the cash payments shareholders get from a company’s profits, but they are paid to holders of certain awards (like stock options or restricted stock units) rather than to actual shares. Think of them as a paycheck top‑up that matches dividends while the award is not yet a real stock, and they matter to investors because they add to employee compensation costs and potential share dilution, affecting company profitability and per‑share value.
restricted stock units financial
"accrued to the Reporting Person on restricted stock units ("RSUs") held by the Reporting Person"
Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.
deferred share units financial
"Represents deferred share units ("DSUs") credited to the Reporting Person's deferred compensation account"
Deferred share units are promises that give an executive or director the right to receive company shares or their cash value at a future date, often when they retire or leave the company. Think of them as a paycheck held in a savings account that converts into stock later; they matter to investors because they tie pay to long-term performance, create potential future dilution of shares, and represent a delayed cash or share obligation the company must eventually fulfill.

FAQ

What did WESCO (WCC) director Easwaran Sundaram report in this Form 4?

He reported receiving stock-based compensation awards, not market trades. On March 31, 2026, he acquired 26.3286 dividend equivalent rights and 114.2090 deferred share units, all tied to WESCO common stock, increasing his directly held stock equivalents to 14,548.6453 shares.

Were these WESCO (WCC) Form 4 transactions open-market stock purchases or sales?

They were not open-market purchases or sales. Both entries are coded as awards (code A), reflecting dividend equivalent rights and deferred share units granted as director compensation rather than discretionary buying or selling of WESCO common stock in the market.

What are dividend equivalent rights (DERs) in WESCO (WCC) director compensation?

Dividend equivalent rights mirror cash dividends on underlying restricted stock units. For Sundaram, 26.3286 DERs accrued on his existing RSUs when WESCO paid a quarterly dividend, with each DER economically equivalent to one share and vesting on the same schedule as the related RSU award.

What are deferred share units (DSUs) reported by WESCO (WCC) director Sundaram?

Deferred share units are bookkeeping entries in a deferred compensation plan. Sundaram received 114.2090 DSUs credited to his non-employee director deferred compensation account, each economically equal to one WESCO share and payable in company stock on a distribution schedule he previously elected under the plan.

How many WESCO (WCC) common stock equivalents does the director hold after these awards?

After the March 31, 2026 awards, Sundaram’s directly held common stock equivalents total 14,548.6453 shares. This reflects the updated balance after crediting 26.3286 dividend equivalent rights and 114.2090 deferred share units described in the reported Form 4 transactions.

Why is the price per share zero for one WESCO (WCC) Form 4 transaction?

The 26.3286 DERs show a zero price because they accrue automatically with dividends on existing restricted stock units. They are compensation-related credits, not purchases for cash, so no transaction price is involved when these dividend equivalent rights are added to the director’s holdings.
