| What We Do | |||||
| ü |
Maintain an Independent Compensation Committee.
Following the departure of Ms. Reses from the Compensation Committee in December 2024, the Compensation Committee consisted solely of independent directors who establish our executive compensation policies and practices. Ms. Reses remained on the Compensation Committee for a limited period of time in fiscal 2025 pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(d)(2)(B) to provide the committee with continuity of membership, particularly as the committee completed its annual review of the Company’s executive compensation. For more information on the Board’s evaluation of Ms. Reses’ independence, please see “
Board of Directors and Corporate Governance—Director Independence
.”
|
||||
| ü |
Retain an Independent Compensation Consultant.
The Compensation Committee retains its own compensation consultant to provide information, analysis, and other advice on executive compensation matters independent of management. This consultant performed no other consulting or other services for us in fiscal 2025.
|
||||
| ü |
Conduct an Annual Executive Compensation Review.
The Compensation Committee reviews and approves our executive compensation strategy at least annually. This assessment includes a review and determination of our compensation peer group used for comparative purposes.
|
||||
| ü |
Conduct an Annual Compensation-Related Risk Assessment.
The Compensation Committee reviews our compensation-related risk profile to ensure that our compensation program does not encourage excessive or inappropriate risk-taking and that the level of risk that it does encourage is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.
|
||||
| ü |
Significant Portion of Target Total Direct Compensation “At-Risk”.
A significant portion of our named executive officers’ target annual total direct compensation is “at risk” based on our financial and operational results and our stock price performance to align the interests of our named executive officers with those of our stockholders.
|
||||
| ü |
Stock Ownership Guidelines
.
We maintain stock ownership guidelines for our executive officers and members of our Board to further align the interests of those individuals with those of our stockholders.
|
||||
| ü |
Establish Multi-Year Vesting Requirements.
The equity awards granted to our named executive officers vest or, in the case of our CEO, are earned, over multi-year periods, consistent with current market practice and our retention objectives.
|
||||
| ü |
Maintain “Double-Trigger” Change in Control Arrangements.
All payments and other benefits that our named executive officers may be eligible to receive under our Officer Severance Plan in the event of a change in control of the Company are “double-trigger” arrangements (requiring both a change in control of the Company plus a qualifying termination of employment before payments and benefits are paid). All such payments and benefits are subject to the execution and delivery of an effective general release of claims in favor of the Company.
|
||||
| ü |
Provide Only Nominal Cash Compensation to Our CEO.
Our CEO receives only a nominal cash base salary and does not participate in our annual cash incentive plan. In fiscal 2021, we granted a special equity award to our CEO, which is divided into ten tranches that our CEO may earn by satisfying a performance condition within a five-year period from the date of grant. Therefore, substantially all of our CEO’s compensation is “at-risk” and performance based.
|
||||
| ü |
Conduct Succession Planning.
We review the risks associated with our key executive officer positions in order to develop and implement appropriate succession plans for our most critical positions.
|
||||
| What We Don’t Do | |||||
| û |
No Executive Retirement Plans.
During fiscal 2025, we did not offer defined benefit pension plans or any non-qualified deferred compensation plans or arrangements to our named executive officers. Our named executive officers are eligible to participate in our 401(k) retirement plan on the same basis as our other employees, which includes eligibility to receive annual employer profit share contributions in their 401(k) plan accounts.
|
||||
| û |
Limited Perquisites.
Perquisites or other personal benefits are not a significant part of our compensation program for our named executive officers. While the Company provides our CEO with personal security services, the Compensation Committee believes that amounts paid by the Company for these security services have been reasonable, necessary and for the Company’s benefit.
|
||||
| û |
No Excise Tax Payments on Future Post-Employment Compensation Arrangements.
We do not provide our named executive officers with excise tax reimbursement payments (including “gross-ups”) for any such taxes on payments or benefits that are contingent upon a change in control of the Company.
|
||||
| û |
No Special Health or Welfare Benefits.
We do not provide our named executive officers with any health or welfare benefit programs, other than participation in our broad-based employee programs on the same basis as our other full-time, salaried employees.
|
||||
| û |
No Hedging of Company Stock.
Under our Insider Trading Policy, our employees, including our named executive officers, and the members of our Board are prohibited from making short sales and engaging in transactions in publicly traded options, warrants, puts and calls or similar instruments with respect to our securities. This includes any hedging or similar transaction designed to decrease the risks associated with holding our common stock.
|
||||
| Factors Considered by the Compensation Committee in Determining Compensation | ||
|
•
our executive compensation program objectives
|
||
|
•
our performance against the financial and operational objectives established by our Board
|
||
|
•
each individual named executive officer’s knowledge, skills, experience, qualifications and tenure
|
||
|
•
the scope of each named executive officer’s role and responsibilities compared to other similarly situated executives at the companies in our compensation peer group and in selected compensation surveys
|
||
|
•
the prior performance of each individual named executive officer, based on a subjective assessment of his or her contributions to our overall performance, ability to lead his or her business unit or function and work as part of a team, all of which reflect our core values
|
||
|
•
the potential of each individual named executive officer to contribute to our long-term financial and operational objectives
|
||
|
•
our financial performance relative to our compensation and performance peers
|
||
|
•
the compensation practices of our compensation peer group and in selected compensation surveys and the positioning of each named executive officer’s compensation in a ranking of peer company compensation levels based on an analysis of competitive market data
|
||
|
•
the recommendations of our CEO with respect to the compensation of our named executive officers (except with respect to his own compensation)
