Relationships Between Executive Compensation Actually Paid and the Company’s Financial and Operational Performance Measures
Our Board of Directors and Compensation Committee generally seek to align the interests of stockholders with our named executive officers by incentivizing long-term performance and through the use of short-term cash incentives. Therefore, we do not specifically align our performance measures with “compensation actually paid” (as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K) for a particular year, and the Compensation Committee did not consider this information in making its executive compensation decisions. Instead, our executives are paid based on the achievement of a set of predetermined corporate milestones, which are focused on driving long-term stockholder value. Our executives are compensated at least annually with service-based restricted stock units or stock options to ensure that their interests are aligned with those of our stockholders. In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following descriptions of the relationships between the information presented in the Pay Versus Performance table.
Relationship Between Compensation Actually Paid and Operational Milestones
The Company does not look to net income (loss) as a performance measure for its executive compensation program and instead looks at operational metrics, such as drug development milestones, pipeline progress, R&D spend, regulatory compliance, intellectual property, partnerships, collaborations, and general financial health of the Company. The compensation actually paid for both our PEO and non-PEO NEO decreased between the 2024 fiscal year and Fiscal 2025. This is primarily because the compensation is structured with stock, and the stock did not perform well despite meeting operational milestones.
The compensation actually paid to our named executive officers from Fiscal 2025 versus the 2024 fiscal year generally reflects cash bonuses and stock awards, some of which vest based on milestones and others based on time. In addition, the Company decreased operating loss reflecting a diligent commitment to the financial health of the Company.
Relationship Between Compensation Actually Paid and Company Total Shareholder Return
Part of the overall compensation is the stock price. In fiscal years 2025 and 2024, the metrics set by the Compensation Committee and the Board with respect to stock price were not met. The PEO and non-PEO were therefore compensated based on shareholder return or value of stock during the fiscal year in each of the 2025 and 2024 fiscal years in the form of stock awards based on market-based milestones. These stock milestones are described under the Narrative to Summary Compensation Table section of this Proxy Statement.
