Peter Jackson was appointed Chief Executive Officer effective November 6, 2024. The amount for 2024 reflects Mr. Jackson’s total compensation for 2024.

The dollar amounts represent the amount of “compensation actually paid,” or CAP, to the CEO and Other Non-CEO NEOs, respectively, as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to the CEO or other NEOs, respectively, during the applicable year.

value from December 31 of the prior year to the vesting date of any awards granted in any prior year as to which all vesting conditions were satisfied during the applicable year.

e.

For 2022, the SCT Total Compensation of Dave Flitman was reduced by $9,938,757, reflecting the fair value as of December 31 of the prior year of any awards granted in any prior year as to which vesting conditions failed to be met during the applicable year.

For purposes of the foregoing, the fair value of the stock awards at all applicable dates was calculated using the same methodology (including applicable assumptions) as used to account for share-based payments in the Company’s financial statements. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of awards at the applicable dates did not differ in any material respect from the assumptions used to calculate the grant date fair value of the awards as reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year, except that (i) for 2024 CAP, the fair value calculations for PSUs granted in 2022 assumed a payout at 184.8% (based on actual payout amount as of the completion of all performance periods), (ii) for 2023 CAP, the fair value calculations for PSUs granted in 2021 assumed a payout at 165% (based on actual payout amount as of the completion of all performance periods), and the fair value calculations for the PSUs granted in 2022 and 2023 assumed a payout at 200%, which was the probable outcome of the applicable performance conditions as of December 31, 2023, compared to the grant date fair value calculations of such PSUs, which assumed a payout at target, (iii) for 2022 CAP, the fair value calculations for PSUs granted in 2020 assumed a payout at 220% (based on a maximum performance payout of 200% plus a 10% TSR modifier), the fair value calculations for the PSUs granted in 2021 assumed a payout at 150% for all NEOs except Mr. Rush, and the fair value calculations for the PSUs granted in 2021 to Mr. Rush assumed a payout at 120%, which was the probable outcome of the applicable performance conditions as of December 31, 2022, compared to the grant date fair value calculations of such PSUs, which assumed a payout at target, and (iv) for 2021 CAP, the fair value calculations for PSUs granted in 2020 assumed a payout at 200%, which was the probable outcome of the applicable performance conditions as of December 31, 2021, compared to the grant date fair value calculations of such PSUs, which assumed a payout at target. For a discussion of the assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock awards, please refer to the “Stock-Based Compensation” in Notes 2 and 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Dave Flitman was appointed as President effective January 1, 2021, and as Chief Executive Officer effective April 1, 2021. The amount for 2021 reflects Mr. Flitman’s total compensation in 2021.

Chad Crow served as President and Chief Executive Officer during the entirety of 2020, and as Chief Executive Officer from January 1, 2021 to March 31, 2021, and thereafter continued to serve as a consultant to the Company. The amount for 2021 reflects Mr. Crow’s total compensation for 2021.

The non-PEO NEOs in 2024 were Pete Beckmann, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Steve Herron, Chief Operating Officer, Scott Robins, President – West Division, and Johnny Cope, President – Commercial Operations.

The non-PEO NEOs in 2023 were Peter Jackson, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Steve Herron, Chief Operating Officer, Scott Robins, President – West Division, and Tim Johnson, Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary.

Relationships Between Compensation Paid and Company Performance

Total Shareholder Return

The graph below presents, for the cumulative period from January 1, 2020 — December 31, 2024, the relationship between the CAP to our CEOs and the average CAP to our other NEOs and each of the Company’s TSR and the TSR of the Index.

As demonstrated by the graph above, CAP to our CEOs and the average CAP to our other NEOs is aligned with the Company’s TSR and the TSR of the Index. The Company’s TSR increased by 432.5% over the reporting period, outperforming the Index by 306% over the same period. Although no individual served as CEO during the entire reporting period, the correlation between TSR performance and CEO CAP is illustrated by Mr. Crow’s CAP in 2021. In 2021, the Company’s TSR outperformed the TSR of the Index from the prior year by 85.2% and Mr. Crow’s CAP increased 88.0% during that same period, primarily due to the high proportion of variable pay at risk for Mr. Crow that year and the relatively high year-end closing stock price in 2021. Additionally, while the Company’s TSR performance decreased 24.3% from 2021 to 2022 and the TSR performance of the Index decreased by 16.4% during that period, Mr. Flitman saw a negative CAP in 2022 as a result of the PSUs and RSUs he forfeited upon his departure from the Company in late 2021. Finally, CAP for Messrs. Mr. Rush and Jackson decreased by 60% and 84%, respectively, from 2023 to 2024, and outpaced the Company's TSR decrease of approximately 20% during that same time period primarily due to the year-end value of Mr. Rush's equity awards granted in 2023 and the overperformance of Mr. Jackson's performance-based RSUs that were granted in 2020 and vested in 2023.

During the reporting period, average CAP has fluctuated year-over-year. CAP to the other NEOs was highest among the reporting periods when the Company achieved some of its highest historical year-end closing stock prices compared to

BUILDERS FIRSTSOURCE, INC.642025 PROXY STATEMENT

prior years, such as in 2021 and 2023, which correlates to the high proportion of variable pay at risk for the other NEOs. Conversely, CAP to the CEO and the other NEOs decreased in 2022 and 2024 due to the slowing housing market and commodity deflation that resulted in the Company’s lower closing stock price when comparing the stock price from the beginning to the end of those respective years. While CAP to the CEOs was subject to deviations primarily due to having four different CEOs over the reporting period, the average CAP to the other NEOs is generally aligned with the Company’s TSR and the TSR of the Index.

Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA

The graph below presents, for each of the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the relationship between the CAP to our CEOs and the average CAP to our other NEOs and each of the Company’s net income and Adjusted EBITDA.

Because we had multiple CEOs throughout the reporting period, trends between CEO CAP during the reporting period do not align with the Adjusted EBITDA trends throughout the reporting period. Annual Adjusted EBITDA trends also do not align with trends in other NEO CAP because the executive officers comprising the NEO group has changed year-over-year. Although Adjusted EBITDA is a performance metric in the 2024 Plan, variable pay comprises a high proportion of the compensation of our CEO and other NEOs, which correlates more closely to our year-end closing stock price as mentioned above. For example, while Adjusted EBITDA increased by 170.4% during the reporting period, average CAP to the other NEOs decreased approximately 50% in the aggregate during that same period. Other NEO CAP was lower in 2024 primarily because Mr. Cope, who was appointed as President– Commercial Operations in June 2024 and did not have historical equity awards that vested in 2024, was included in the group for the first time.

The Compensation Committee did not use net income as a metric for purposes of determining or paying compensation during the reporting period. Like the Adjusted EBITDA metric, trends in net income did not align with CAP to our CEOs and other NEOs.
