Compensation Program Overview

Compensation Philosophy and Program Objectives

Our compensation program is designed to attract and retain high-performing executives by motivating and rewarding our executives for achieving both short- and long-term performance goals that are aimed at growing stockholder value. The principal objectives of our compensation philosophy and program are to:

align the interests of our executives and stockholders through the use of performance-based short-term cash incentive compensation and time- and performance-based long-term equity incentive compensation;

​

attract, motivate, retain and reward the key leadership and managerial talent needed for our Company to achieve its goals and objectives;

​

promote long-term value creation and growth strategies;

​

ensure line-of-sight between key performance measures that are indicative of Company growth and gains in stockholder value and actual results; and

​

encourage stock ownership through executive stock ownership guidelines and by providing long-term incentives that align the interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders.

​​​​EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION​

Compensation Elements

The primary components of our executive compensation program are base salary, short-term incentive compensation (cash bonus) and long-term incentive compensation (equity, with a significant portion performance-based and all subject to multi-year vesting requirements). The primary objectives of these components are described in more detail below.

​Pay-for-Performance Compensation Structure​
​Our compensation structure embodies our commitment to align executive pay and performance by linking a meaningful portion of total compensation to the achievement of pre-determined quantitative performance goals through our STIP, as well as rigorous absolute and relative stockholder return goals through our LTIP. In 2024, 90.7% of our Chief Executive Officer’s total target compensation, and 79.1% (on average) of our other named executive officers’ total target compensation was performance-based and/or at risk/not guaranteed and 9.3% and 20.9% respectively, was fixed. To build alignment with our stockholders, long-term incentive awards granted under the LTIP are predominantly “at-risk” performance-based equity awards, the vesting and ultimate value of which depends entirely on the Company’s future absolute and relative total stockholder return. The following graphics illustrate the mix between fixed pay (base salary) and performance-based and/or at-risk pay incentives (short-term incentive in the form of cash and long-term incentive in the form of time-based restricted stock and PSUs) for our Chief Executive Officer and the average of our other named executive officers, in each case based on 2024 target levels of compensation. Actual 2024 compensation varies based on performance outcomes.​
