Pay Versus Performance

Pursuant to Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Exchange Act, we are providing the Company’s “pay versus performance” disclosure below. This disclosure has been prepared in accordance with Item 402(v) and does not necessarily reflect value actually realized by the executives or how our Compensation Committee evaluates compensation decisions in light of Company or individual performance. The use of the term “compensation actually paid” (“CAP”) is required by the SEC’s rules. Per SEC rules, CAP was created by adjusting the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”) total values for the applicable year as described in the footnotes to the following table. Please refer to our Compensation Discussion and Analysis section for a discussion of our executive compensation program objectives and the ways in which we align executive compensation with performance.

The following table sets forth information concerning the compensation of our Named Executive Officers (“NEOs”) for each of the fiscal years ended December 29, 2020; December 28, 2021; January 3, 2023 and January 2, 2024, and our financial performance for each such fiscal year:
