2025 Target Pay Mix
As illustrated in the charts below, the Company emphasizes long-term equity awards and annual performance-based cash incentives so that a majority of each executive’s total compensation opportunity is linked directly to the Company’s stock price or otherwise tied to performance. For 2025, 93% of target total direct compensation for our CEO and an average of 85% for the other NEOs was in the form of variable, at-risk pay. Moreover, 80% of long-term incentive awards for our CEO and 75% of long-term incentive awards for our other NEOs was in the form of performance-based compensation (performance shares and stock options).
| 1 | Percentages calculated based upon actual base salary, target annual incentive and the target grant date value of annual long-term incentive awards, excluding special awards. Percentages may not total 100% due to rounding. |
