Compensation Program Changes in 2024
Base Salary and Short-Term Cash Incentive Compensation. Based on a review of market data, and taking into account the contributions of the named executive officers and our financial performance in 2023, during its annual executive compensation review our Compensation and Nominating Committee (the “Committee”) left unchanged the base salaries and target cash incentive bonus amounts of the named executive officers, as discussed further below. In addition, the Committee approved, and Mr. Colony agreed to, the continued reduction in his base salary to $1.00 on an annualized basis for 2024.
Executive Cash Incentive Plan. In 2024, in light of the Company's financial performance in 2023 and its projected results for 2024, the Committee suspended the bonus program under the Executive Cash Incentive Plan for 2024 and did not set performance metrics for the year.
Long-Term Equity Incentive Compensation. In 2024, the Committee approved annual equity awards to our executive officers consisting solely of time-based RSUs. This contrasted to 2023, when the Committee determined that the equity awards to our named executive officers, other than Mr. Colony, would consist of a combination of time-based and performance-based RSUs and stock options.
Stock Retention Guidelines. As a result of its annual review of the Company's stock retention guidelines described in more detail below, the Committee decided to update the retention targets for all executive officers and directors effective April 1, 2024 to align the targets with changes in annual compensation and stock market fluctuations.
Say on Pay Stockholder Vote. As we have done each year since 2011, in 2024 we submitted our executive compensation program to an advisory vote of our stockholders and, consistent with the results of our previous say on pay votes, it received the support of 99% of the total votes cast at our annual meeting. We pay careful attention to any feedback we receive from our stockholders about our executive compensation program, including the say on pay vote. The Committee considered this feedback when setting our executive cash compensation program and granting equity awards to executives in 2024 and will continue to consider stockholder feedback in its subsequent executive compensation decision making.
