Fiscal 2024 Business Highlights
We overcame industrywide headwinds throughout 2024, leading to top quartile and differentiated financial results for the year. Our performance in the face of an evolving macro environment is both a testament to the hard work of our incredible team and the result of the transformation that has taken place at our Company in recent years, not only from a portfolio composition standpoint, but also from an operational agility and collaboration perspective. Highlights of our fiscal year 2024 performance include:
| • |
GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations of $2.30 for fiscal year 2024, as compared to GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations of $1.44 for fiscal year 2023. Adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations for fiscal year 2024 was $4.90, as compared to $4.65 in fiscal year 2023. |
| • |
GAAP revenue for fiscal year 2024 of $2,755 million, as compared to $2,751 million in fiscal year 2023. |
| • |
GAAP operating income from continuing operations for fiscal year 2024 of $347 million, as compared to $301 million in fiscal year 2023. |
| • |
GAAP operating profit margin from continuing operations was 12.6% as a percentage of revenue for fiscal year 2024, as compared to 10.9% for fiscal year 2023. |
A reconciliation of our GAAP results to the non-GAAP financial measure set forth above, adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations, can be found in Appendix A to this proxy statement.

PROXY STATEMENT
|
General Information
Why am I receiving these materials?
Revvity, Inc., also referred to as we, us, the Company or Revvity, has prepared this proxy statement to provide our shareholders with information pertaining to the matters to be voted on at our annual meeting of shareholders to be held on Tuesday, April 22, 2025 at 8:00 a.m., on a virtual basis via live webcast at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/RVTY2025 , and at any adjournment of that meeting. The date of this proxy statement is March 12, 2025, the approximate date on which we first sent or provided the proxy statement and form of proxy to our shareholders.
Our board of directors has fixed the close of business on February 25, 2025 as the record date for determining the shareholders entitled to receive notice of, and to vote their shares at, the meeting. On the record date, there were 120,147,286 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Each share of common stock carries the right to cast one vote on each of the proposals presented for shareholder action, with no cumulative voting.
Your vote is important no matter how many shares you own. Please take the time to vote. Take a moment to read the instructions below. Choose the way to vote that is easiest and most convenient for you and cast your vote as soon as possible.
How can I vote my shares at, and participate in, the virtual annual meeting?
In an effort to provide our shareholders with enhanced accessibility to the meeting, we will be conducting this year’s annual meeting on a virtual basis only. We believe that holding the meeting on a virtual basis will allow for greater participation by shareholders. Shareholders may participate in the annual meeting by visiting the following website: www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/RVTY2025. You will need the 16-digit control number included on your notice, on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials. Shares held in your name as the shareholder of record may be voted electronically during the annual meeting. Shares for which you are the beneficial owner but not the shareholder of record may also be voted electronically during the annual meeting. However, even if you plan to attend the virtual annual meeting, the Company recommends that you vote your shares in advance, so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend, or are otherwise not able to attend, the meeting. Shareholders attending the virtual annual meeting as a guest are not able to vote or ask questions during the meeting.
How can I vote my shares without attending the virtual annual meeting?
To vote your shares without attending the virtual meeting, please follow the instructions for Internet or telephone voting on the proxy card, voting instruction form or notice. If you received your proxy materials by mail, you may also vote by signing and submitting your proxy card and returning it by mail, if you are the shareholder of record, or by signing the voter instruction form provided by your bank or broker and returning it by mail, if you are the beneficial owner but not the shareholder of record. This way, your shares will be represented whether or not you are able to attend the virtual meeting.
What if I want to change my vote?
You may change your vote at any time before it is exercised, which can be done by voting your shares online while virtually attending the annual meeting, or by delivering a new proxy or by notifying the Company Secretary in writing prior to the meeting. If you are not a shareholder of record, but hold shares as a beneficial owner in street name, you must contact the institution serving as the registered holder. If voting by Internet or telephone, you may change your vote and revoke
| Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement | 1 |
Table of Contents
your proxy up to 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the day before the meeting by following the instructions on your proxy card or voting instruction form.
What proposals will be voted on at the annual meeting?
The proposals being presented for shareholder action are set forth on your proxy card and are discussed in detail on the following pages. Shares that you have the power to vote that are represented by proxy will be voted at the meeting in accordance with your instructions indicated on the enclosed proxy card or submitted by Internet or telephone.
The first proposal is to elect ten directors for terms of one year each. You may vote for or against each nominee, or may abstain from voting on any nominee, by marking the appropriate box on the proxy card, or submitting instructions by Internet or telephone. If you return a proxy card, or submit instructions by Internet or telephone, your shares will be voted as you indicate. If you sign and return your proxy card or submit instructions by Internet or telephone and make no indication concerning one or more of the nominees, your shares will be voted “FOR” electing those nominees for whom you made no indication.
The second proposal is to ratify the selection of Deloitte Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the current fiscal year ending December 28, 2025. You may vote for or against this proposal or abstain from voting on this proposal by marking the appropriate box on the proxy card or submitting instructions by Internet or telephone. If you return a proxy card or submit instructions by Internet or telephone, your shares will be voted as you indicate. If you sign and return your proxy card or submit instructions by Internet or telephone and make no indication concerning this proposal, your shares will be voted “FOR” the second proposal.
The third proposal is to approve, by non-binding advisory vote, our executive compensation. You may vote for or against this proposal or abstain from voting on this proposal by marking the appropriate box on the proxy card or submitting instructions by Internet or telephone. If you return a proxy card or submit instructions by Internet or telephone, your shares will be voted as you indicate. If you sign and return your proxy card or submit instructions by Internet or telephone and make no indication concerning this proposal, your shares will be voted “FOR” the third proposal.
The fourth proposal is to amend the Company’s governance documents to implement a majority voting standard for specified corporate actions, which if approved, would provide that each voting requirement in our Restated Articles of Organization, as amended, and Amended and Restated By-laws, and each other voting requirement under Massachusetts law, that calls for a supermajority vote be replaced by a requirement that such matters be approved by a majority of our shares outstanding and entitled to vote. You may vote for or against this proposal or abstain from voting on this proposal by marking the appropriate box on the proxy card or submitting instructions by Internet or telephone. If you return a proxy card or submit instructions by Internet or telephone, your shares will be voted as you indicate. If you sign and return your proxy card or submit instructions by Internet or telephone and make no indication concerning this proposal, your shares will be voted “FOR” the fourth proposal.
The fifth proposal has been submitted by a shareholder and if properly presented at the annual meeting and approved, would require that the Company’s governance documents be amended to provide that shareholders holding a combined 10% of our shares outstanding be given the power to call a special shareholder meeting. You may vote for or against this proposal or abstain from voting on this proposal by marking the appropriate box on the proxy card or submitting instructions by Internet or telephone. If you return a proxy card or submit instructions by Internet or telephone, your shares will be voted as you indicate. If you sign and return your proxy card or submit instructions by Internet or telephone and make no indication concerning this proposal, your shares will be voted “AGAINST” the fifth proposal.
| 2 | Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement |
Table of Contents
Our management does not anticipate a vote on any other proposal at the meeting. Under Massachusetts law, where we are incorporated, only matters included in the notice of the meeting may be brought before our shareholders at a meeting. If, however, another proposal is properly brought before the meeting, your shares will be voted in accordance with the discretion of the named proxies.
What voting recommendations have been made by the board?
The board of directors recommends that you vote FOR Proposal No. 1 to elect ten nominees for director for terms of one year each; FOR Proposal No. 2 to ratify the selection of Deloitte Touche LLP as Revvity’s independent registered public accounting firm for the current fiscal year; FOR Proposal No. 3 to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, our executive compensation; FOR Proposal No. 4 to amend the Company’s governance documents to implement a majority voting standard, rather than a supermajority voting standard, for specified corporate actions; and AGAINST the shareholder submitted Proposal No. 5 to amend the Company’s governance documents to allow shareholders holding a combined 10% of our shares outstanding to call a special shareholder meeting. If you sign and return the proxy card, but do not give any instructions on a particular matter described in this proxy statement, the shares you own will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our board of directors.
What if I am a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name”?
If the shares you own are held in “street name” by a bank, broker or other nominee record holder, which, for convenience, we collectively refer to in this proxy statement as brokerage firms, your brokerage firm, as the record holder of your shares, is required to vote your shares according to your instructions. If you attend the virtual meeting, in order to vote your shares held in street name, you will need to follow the directions your brokerage firm provides you as well as enter the control number found on your voting instruction form that you received from your brokerage firm and follow the instructions available on the meeting website during the meeting. Many brokerage firms also offer the option of providing for voting over the Internet or by telephone, instructions for which, if available, would be provided by your brokerage firm on the voting instruction form that it delivers to you. Under the current rules of the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, if you do not give instructions to your brokerage firm, it will still be able to vote your shares with respect to certain “discretionary” items, but will not be allowed to vote your shares with respect to certain “non-discretionary” items. The ratification of Deloitte Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm (Proposal No. 2) is considered to be a discretionary item under the NYSE rules, and your brokerage firm will be able to vote on that item even if it does not receive instructions from you, as long as it holds your shares in its name. The election of directors (Proposal No. 1), the approval of our executive compensation program (Proposal No. 3), the replacement of supermajority voting standards for specified corporate actions with majority voting standards (Proposal No. 4) and the shareholder proposal to allow shareholders holding a combined 10% of our shares outstanding to call a special shareholder meeting (Proposal No. 5) are all “non-discretionary” items. If you return an instruction card to your brokerage firm but do not instruct your brokerage firm on how to vote with respect to these items, your brokerage firm will not vote with respect to the proposal(s) for which you did not give instructions, and your shares will be counted as “broker non-votes” with respect to those proposals. “Broker non-votes” are shares that are held in “street name” by a brokerage firm that indicates on its proxy that it does not have or did not exercise discretionary authority to vote on a particular matter.
Who is paying for this solicitation?
This proxy is solicited on behalf of our board of directors. We will bear the expenses connected with this proxy solicitation. We expect to pay brokers, nominees, fiduciaries, and other custodians their reasonable expenses for forwarding proxy materials and annual reports to principals
| Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement | 3 |
Table of Contents
and obtaining their voting instructions. We have engaged Georgeson Inc. of New York, New York to assist us in soliciting proxies from brokers, nominees, fiduciaries, and custodians, and will pay Georgeson approximately $45,000 plus out-of-pocket expenses for its efforts. In addition to the use of the mails, our directors, officers, and employees may, without additional remuneration, solicit proxies in person or by use of other communications media.
How can I view or request proxy materials?
We previously mailed to shareholders, or are providing with this proxy statement, our annual report to shareholders for 2024. The annual report is not part of, or incorporated by reference in, this proxy statement.
Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for
the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to Be Held on April 22, 2025:
This proxy statement and the 2024 annual report to shareholders are available at
www.proxyvote.com for viewing, downloading and printing.
A copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, except for exhibits, will be furnished without charge to any shareholder upon written or oral request to Revvity, Inc., 77 4 th Avenue, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451, Attention: Investor Relations, Telephone: (800) 762-4000.
How will materials be delivered to beneficial owners at the same address?
Some brokerage firms may be participating in the practice of “householding” proxy statements, annual reports and notices of Internet availability of proxy materials. This means that only one copy of these documents may have been sent to multiple shareholders in your household. We will promptly deliver a separate copy of any of these documents to you if you request one by writing or calling as follows: Revvity, Inc., 77 4 th Avenue, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451, Attention: Investor Relations, Telephone: (800) 762-4000. If you want to receive separate copies of our annual report and proxy statement in the future, or if you are receiving multiple copies and would like to receive only one copy for your household, you should contact your brokerage firm, or you may contact us at the above address and phone number.
What are the voting standards?
A majority in interest of all Revvity common stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote on each proposal being submitted for shareholder action at the meeting constitutes a quorum with respect to that proposal. Shares of common stock represented by executed proxies received by us will be counted for purposes of establishing a quorum, regardless of how or whether those shares are voted on the proposal. Therefore, abstentions and broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists at the meeting for that proposal.
For a nominee to be elected as a director pursuant to Proposal No. 1, more votes must be cast for such nominee’s election than against such nominee’s election. For the ratification of our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to Proposal No. 2, the majority of the votes cast on Proposal No. 2 must be cast for the ratification. For the approval, by non-binding vote, of our executive compensation program pursuant to Proposal No. 3, the majority of the votes cast on Proposal No. 3 must be cast in favor of the executive compensation program. For the approval of Proposal 4 to amend the Company’s governance documents to implement a majority voting standard, rather than a supermajority voting standard, for specified corporate actions, at least two-thirds of the shares outstanding must be cast in favor of the proposal. For the approval of the shareholder proposal to allow shareholders holding a combined 10% of our shares outstanding to call a special shareholder meeting in Proposal No. 5, the majority of the votes cast on Proposal No. 5 must be cast in favor of the shareholder proposal. Shares abstaining and broker non-votes, if any, will not be counted as votes for

or against, and as a result will have no effect on voting on Proposals No. 1, 2, 3 or 5, other than for purposes of establishing a quorum. Proposal No. 4 requires the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of our outstanding shares, and, accordingly, shares abstaining and broker non-votes will have the same effect as votes against the proposal.
Although the advisory vote on Proposal No. 3 is non-binding, as provided by law, our board values shareholders’ opinions and will take the results of the vote into account when considering any changes to our executive compensation program.

Our charter and By-laws provide that the shareholders or the board of directors will determine the number of directors to serve on our board as not fewer than three or more than thirteen.

Director Qualification Matrix
The members of the board have a range of experience and a wide variety of backgrounds, skills, qualifications and viewpoints that strengthen their ability to carry out their oversight role on behalf of our shareholders. The following matrix is provided to illustrate the knowledge, skills and experience of the nominees for director to serve on our board. The matrix does not encompass all of the knowledge, skills and experience of our directors, and the fact that a particular knowledge, skill or experience is not listed does not mean that a director does not possess it. In addition, the absence of a particular knowledge, skill or experience with respect to any of our directors does not mean the director in question is unable to contribute to the decision-making process in that area. However, a mark indicates a specific area of focus or expertise that the director brings to our board. More information on each director’s qualifications and background is included in the director biographies on the following pages. We regularly review the attributes required of board members in order to better facilitate the Company’s long-term goals, operational performance, and corporate culture.

In addition to the information presented regarding each nominee’s specific experience, qualifications, attributes and skills that led the nominating and corporate governance committee to recommend that our board nominate these individuals, our board believes that all of the nominees have a reputation for honesty, integrity and adherence to high ethical standards.

INFORMATION RELATING TO OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND ITS COMMITTEES
|
Determination of Independence
Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Under current NYSE rules, a director of Revvity qualifies as “independent” only if our board of directors affirmatively determines that the director has no material relationship with Revvity, either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with Revvity. Our board of directors evaluates the independence of our directors on an annual basis. In evaluating potentially material relationships, our board considers commercial, industrial, banking, counseling, legal, accounting, charitable and familial relationships, among others. Our board of directors has determined that none of Messrs. Chapin, Klobuchar, Michas, or Vounatsos, Ms. Witz, or Drs. Barrett, McMurry-Heath, Vandebroek or Witney, has a material relationship with Revvity, and also that each of these directors is “independent” as determined under Section 303A.02(b) of the NYSE Listed Company Manual.
Director Candidates
Our shareholders may recommend director candidates for inclusion by the board of directors in the slate of nominees the board recommends to our shareholders for election. The qualifications of recommended candidates will be reviewed by the nominating and corporate governance committee. If the board determines to nominate a shareholder-recommended candidate and recommends his or her election as a director by the shareholders, the name will be included on our proxy card for the shareholders’ meeting at which his or her election is recommended.
Shareholders may recommend individuals for the nominating and corporate governance committee to consider as potential director candidates by submitting their names, together with appropriate biographical information and background materials, and a statement as to whether the shareholder or group of shareholders making the recommendation has beneficially owned more than 5% of our common stock for at least a year as of the date such recommendation is made. Materials should be mailed to the “Revvity Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee” c/o Office of the General Counsel, Revvity, Inc., 77 4 th Avenue, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451. The nominating and corporate governance committee will consider a proposed director candidate only if appropriate biographical information and background material are provided on a timely basis. The process followed by the nominating and corporate governance committee to identify and evaluate candidates may include requests to board members and others for recommendations, meetings from time to time to evaluate biographical information and background material relating to potential candidates, and interviews of selected candidates by members of the nominating and corporate governance committee and the board of directors. Assuming that appropriate biographical and background material are provided for candidates recommended by shareholders, the nominating and corporate governance committee will evaluate those candidates by following substantially the same process as outlined above, and applying substantially the same criteria, as for candidates submitted by board members.
Shareholders also have the right under our Amended and Restated By-laws to nominate director candidates directly, without any action or recommendation on the part of the nominating and corporate governance committee or our board, by following the process for shareholder proposals for election of directors set forth in our Amended and Restated By-laws and discussed in “Shareholder Proposals for 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders,” below. Candidates nominated by shareholders in accordance with these procedures will not be included in our proxy card for the shareholder meeting at which his or her nomination is recommended.

Selection and Review Process
In considering whether to recommend any candidate for inclusion in the board of directors’ slate of recommended director nominees, including candidates recommended by shareholders, the nominating and corporate governance committee will apply the criteria set forth in Revvity’s corporate governance guidelines and such other factors as the committee deems appropriate. These criteria include the candidate’s experience, skills, and independence. In evaluating a candidate’s experience and skills, the nominating and corporate governance committee may also consider qualities such as an understanding of technologies, marketing, finance, regulation and public policy, and international issues. In evaluating a candidate’s independence, the nominating and corporate governance committee will consider the applicable independence standards of the NYSE and the Securities and Exchange Commission. The nominating and corporate governance committee will evaluate each director candidate in the context of the perceived needs of the board, the best interests of Revvity and its shareholders, as well as our corporate governance guidelines. Accordingly, the nominating and corporate governance committee seeks nominees with a broad range of experience, professions, skills and backgrounds. The nominating and corporate governance committee does not assign specific weights to particular criteria, and no particular criterion is necessarily applicable to all prospective nominees. We believe that the backgrounds and qualifications of the directors, considered as a group, should provide a significant composite mix of experience, knowledge and abilities that will allow our board to fulfill its responsibilities. Nominees are not discriminated against on the basis of race, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, disability or any other basis proscribed by law.
The nominating and corporate governance committee, as part of its annual assessment of board performance, reviews the range of experience, attributes and skills considered necessary for the optimal functioning of the board. The committee reviews the experience, attributes and skills currently represented on the board, as well as those areas where a change could improve the overall quality of our board and the ability of the board to perform its responsibilities. The committee then establishes those areas that could be the focus of a director search, if necessary. The nominating and corporate governance committee’s annual evaluation process represents an in-depth and personalized approach to assessing both the effectiveness of the board as a whole and each member of the board on an individual basis. Included as a component of the board’s annual self-evaluation is a review of the board’s diverse mix of experience, attributes and skills.
Each member of the board of directors is required to limit the number of other public company boards on which they serve so that they are able to devote adequate time to their duties to the Company, including preparing for and attending meetings of the board and any committees on which they serve. No director may serve on more than three other public company boards (and in the case of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, no more than one other public company board), in addition to the Company’s board, unless such service is specifically approved in advance by a majority of the board. Directors are required to advise the Chair of the nominating and corporate governance committee in advance of accepting any invitation to serve on another public company board and to provide sufficient opportunity and information to confirm that the director who proposes to accept a new directorship remains independent. Service on boards of other organizations is required to comply with the Company’s conflict of interest policies.
Leadership Structure
Our board of directors selects a Chair of the board by evaluating the criteria and using a process that the board considers to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, pursuant to our corporate governance guidelines. Our board of directors does not have a fixed policy on whether the Chief Executive Officer and Chair should be separate positions or whether the Chair should be an employee or non-employee. Currently, Mr. Michas serves as our Non-Executive Chair and Dr. Singh serves as our Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Michas has been a member of our board since 2001 and has served as Non-Executive Chair since December 30, 2019, having most recently served as our Lead Director. In addition to his years of experience on our board, Mr. Michas brings to the role a wealth of
| 14 | Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement |
Table of Contents
corporate governance knowledge developed in his board roles with other public companies. Dr. Singh joined the Company in 2014 and has held a number of senior leadership positions. Dr. Singh was elected to our board in 2019 and has served as our Chief Executive Officer since December 30, 2019. We believe that the Company will benefit from separating the roles of Chair and Chief Executive Officer by allowing each individual to focus on their respective areas of responsibility. As Non-Executive Chair, Mr. Michas’ primary responsibilities include presiding at meetings of our board of directors, reviewing and assisting in setting the agenda and schedule for meetings of our board of directors, advising the committee chairs in performing their responsibilities, initiating and chairing meetings of the independent directors, and counseling the Chief Executive Officer and directors as needed. Our board holds executive sessions of the independent directors preceding or following each regularly scheduled board meeting. We believe that the current leadership structure, through the combination of Dr. Singh’s knowledge of the Company as Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Michas’ demonstrated understanding of the role played by the chair of a public company board of directors, allows the Chief Executive Officer to set the overall direction of the Company and provide day-to-day leadership, while having the benefit of the Non-Executive Chair’s counsel and corporate governance experience. In addition, separation of the roles of Non-Executive Chair and Chief Executive Officer encourages a greater role for the independent directors in the oversight of the Company and in their representation of shareholders’ interests.
Communications from Shareholders and Other Interested Parties
Our board of directors will give appropriate attention to written communications on issues that are submitted by shareholders and other interested parties, and will respond if and as appropriate.
Shareholders and other interested parties who wish to communicate with our entire board, or with our non-management directors, may do so by writing to Alexis P. Michas, Non-Executive Chair, Revvity, Inc., 77 4 th Avenue, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451. Communications will be forwarded to other directors if the communications relate to substantive matters that the Non-Executive Chair, in consultation with our General Counsel, considers appropriate for attention by the other directors. In general, communications relating to corporate governance and long-term corporate strategy are more likely to be forwarded than communications relating to ordinary business affairs, personal grievances or matters as to which we tend to receive repetitive or duplicative communications.
Board of Directors’ Role in Risk Oversight
Our board of directors has an active role in overseeing risks that could affect the Company, including operational, financial, legal and regulatory, and strategic and reputational risks. This oversight is conducted primarily through the audit committee, which has been assigned responsibility for enterprise risk management and reports regularly to our board on such matters. Senior management carries out the functional performance of enterprise risk management activities, with access to external service providers as needed. This process includes periodic reporting by management to the audit committee in order to systematically identify, analyze, prioritize and document potential business risks, their potential impact on the Company’s performance, and the Company’s ability to detect, manage, control and prevent these risks. When the audit committee receives a report from senior management, the Chair of the audit committee reports on the discussion to the full board during the next board meeting. This enables the board and its committees to coordinate the overall risk oversight role, particularly with respect to risk areas that may potentially impact more than one committee of the board of directors.
In addition to the role our audit committee plays in overseeing enterprise risk management activities, our compensation and benefits committee monitors the design and implementation of our compensation programs to ensure that these programs include the elements needed to motivate employees to take a long-term view of the business and to avoid encouraging unnecessary risk taking. Based on a functional review of our compensation policies and practices as performed by senior management in consultation with our compensation and benefits committee, we do not believe that
| Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement | 15 |
Table of Contents
any risks arising from our employee compensation programs are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
The audit committee also oversees management’s evaluation of risks posed by cybersecurity and related information technology issues to the Company’s operational performance. This role includes engaging with senior management in a periodic review and assessment of the Company’s cybersecurity, information security, data privacy and technology risks, and the Company’s policies and procedures to assess, monitor, manage and mitigate these risks.
The nominating and corporate governance committee oversees the Company’s corporate responsibility and sustainability efforts, which includes the impact of environmental and social issues on the Company. This includes engaging with senior management, and, considering input from our shareholders and other stakeholders on what are commonly referred to as ESG issues, on a periodic basis, reviewing and assessing our policies and procedures in this area. The nominating and corporate governance committee reports any notable trends or issues back to the full board on a regular basis for further review. We believe that this level of oversight is appropriate and in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders given the high degree of importance that we place on advancing our environmental, social and governance strategy.
Board of Directors Meetings and Committees
Our board of directors has responsibility for establishing broad corporate policies and for reviewing overall performance, rather than day-to-day operations. The board’s primary responsibility is to oversee the management of the Company and, in so doing, serve the best interests of our Company and its shareholders. The board selects, evaluates and provides for the succession of our executive officers. It reviews and approves corporate objectives and strategies, and evaluates significant policies and proposed major commitments of corporate resources. It participates in decisions that have a potential major economic impact on Revvity. Management keeps the directors informed of Company activity through regular written reports and presentations at board and committee meetings. The board participates in an annual self-evaluation process.
Our board of directors met six times in fiscal 2024. During fiscal 2024, each director attended 75% or more of the total combined number of meetings of the board and the committees of which such director was a member. Members of our board of directors are strongly encouraged to attend our annual meeting of shareholders utilizing available technology. In 2024, all of our directors attended our annual meeting of shareholders, which was conducted in a virtual meeting format.
Dr. Singh is the only director who is also an employee of Revvity. He does not participate in the portions of any meetings at which his compensation is determined.
Our board’s standing committees are audit, nominating and corporate governance, and compensation and benefits. Each committee has a charter that has been approved by the board. Each committee must review the appropriateness of its charter and perform a self-evaluation at least annually. You can access our committee charters, corporate governance guidelines and our standards of business conduct under “Company–Governance” on our website, www.revvity.com , or you may request a copy by writing to Revvity, Inc., 77 4 th Avenue, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451, Attention: Investor Relations.
Audit Committee
Our audit committee assists the board of directors in overseeing the integrity of our financial statements, our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, our independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence, risk assessment, the performance of our internal audit function and our independent registered public accounting firm. Our audit committee also considers and approves the specific terms of debt and equity securities to be issued by Revvity, indebtedness and off-balance sheet transactions to be entered into by Revvity, and also considers and
| 16 | Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement |
Table of Contents
approves transactions affecting our capital structure. The current members of our audit committee are Mr. Chapin (Chair), Mr. Klobuchar, Mr. Vounatsos, Ms. Witz and Dr. Vandebroek. Our board of directors has determined that each of Messrs. Chapin, Klobuchar and Vounatsos, Ms. Witz and Dr. Vandebroek qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Each of Messrs. Chapin, Klobuchar and Vounatsos, Ms. Witz and Dr. Vandebroek is an “independent director” under the rules of the NYSE governing the qualifications of the members of audit committees, including the additional independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 for audit committees under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which we refer to in this proxy statement as the Exchange Act. In addition, our board has determined that each member of the audit committee is financially literate, and that Mr. Chapin has accounting and/or related financial management expertise as required under the rules of the NYSE. None of Mr. Chapin, Mr. Klobuchar, Mr. Vounatsos, Ms. Witz or Dr. Vandebroek serves on the audit committees of more than two other public companies. The audit committee held eight meetings during fiscal 2024.
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
Our nominating and corporate governance committee identifies qualified director candidates, recommends to the board of directors the persons to be nominated by the board as directors at the annual meeting of shareholders, reviews and recommends changes to our corporate governance principles and to our corporate responsibility and sustainability efforts, including the impact of environmental and social issues on the Company, and oversees the evaluation of the board. Our nominating and corporate governance committee also adopted and oversees our related party transactions policy. The current members of the nominating and corporate governance committee are Mr. Vounatsos (Chair), Mr. Chapin and Drs. Barrett and Witney. The board has determined that each of Mr. Vounatsos, Mr. Chapin and Drs. Barrett and Witney is independent as defined under the rules of the NYSE. The nominating and corporate governance committee has the authority under its charter to retain, review fees for, and terminate advisors and consultants as it deems necessary to assist in the fulfillment of its responsibilities. For information relating to nominations of directors by our shareholders, see “Director Candidates” above. For information concerning our related party transactions policy, see “Certain Relationships and Policies on Related Party Transactions” below. Our nominating and corporate governance committee met three times during fiscal 2024.
Compensation and Benefits Committee
Our compensation and benefits committee discharges the responsibilities of our board relating to the compensation and benefits of our Chief Executive Officer and our other executive officers, and reviews and makes recommendations to the nominating and corporate governance committee regarding director compensation. The compensation and benefits committee also oversees the performance evaluation of our Chief Executive Officer by our board. In addition, the compensation and benefits committee grants equity (stock options, restricted shares and other stock incentives) to our officers and administers our incentive compensation and executive benefit plans. The compensation and benefits committee also reviews and approves recommendations from our management-run administrative committee concerning terminations of broad-based, non-executive benefit plans, as well as material design changes to those plans that would result in significant cost or increased risk to the Company.
The current members of the compensation and benefits committee are Dr. Barrett (Chair), Drs. McMurry-Heath and Witney and Ms. Witz. Our board has determined that each of Drs. Barrett, McMurry-Heath and Witney and Ms. Witz is independent as defined under the rules of the NYSE regarding independence of compensation committee members. Our compensation and benefits committee held five meetings during fiscal year 2024.
The compensation and benefits committee has the authority under its charter to directly retain, review fees for, and terminate advisors and consultants as it deems necessary to assist in the fulfillment of its responsibilities. The committee has retained Pearl Meyer Partners, LLC as its

independent compensation consultant to assist the committee with its responsibilities related to our executive and board compensation programs. The Compensation Discussion and Analysis in this proxy statement provides additional information regarding the compensation and benefits committee’s processes and procedures for evaluating and determining executive officer compensation.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
For the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024, the members of the compensation and benefits committee were Dr. Barrett (Chair), Drs. McMurry-Heath and Witney and Ms. Witz.
None of our executive officers has served as a director or member of the compensation committee of any other entity while any executive officer of that entity served as a director or member of our compensation and benefits committee.

Audit Fees
These are fees related to professional services rendered in connection with the audit of our annual financial statements, the reviews of the interim financial statements included in each of our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and other professional services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm in connection with statutory or regulatory filings or engagements.
Audit-Related Fees
These are fees for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to performance of the audit and review of our financial statements, and which are not reported under “Audit Fees.” These services consisted primarily of audits of employee benefit plans, and for fiscal 2024, attestation services for such matters as required for consents related to registration statements and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Tax Fees
These are fees billed for professional services for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning services. Tax compliance services which relate to preparation of original and amended US and non-US corporate income tax returns (fees for which amounted to $380,000 in fiscal 2024 and $243,000 in fiscal 2023) and expatriate tax return preparation and assistance (fees for which amounted to $0 in fiscal 2024 and $4,000 in fiscal 2023) accounted for $380,000 of the total tax fees paid for in fiscal 2024 and $247,000 of the total tax fees paid for in fiscal 2023. Tax advice and planning services, including consultations on foreign transactions, assistance with tax audits and appeals, tax advice related to reorganizations, mergers and acquisitions, employee benefit plans and requests for rulings or technical advice from taxing authorities, amounted to $0 in fiscal 2024 and $3,810,000 in fiscal 2023.
All Other Fees
Fees paid or incurred for other services amounted to $15,000 in fiscal 2024 and $15,000 in fiscal 2023.
Audit Committee’s Pre-Approval Policy and Procedures
The audit committee of our board of directors has adopted policies and procedures for the pre-approval of audit and non-audit services for the purpose of maintaining the independence of our independent registered public accounting firm. We may not engage our independent registered public accounting firm to render any audit or non-audit service unless either the service is approved in advance by the audit committee, or the engagement to render the service is entered into pursuant to the audit committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures. On an annual basis, the audit committee may pre-approve services that are expected to be provided to Revvity by the independent registered
| Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement | 19 |
Table of Contents
public accounting firm during the following 12 months. At the time such pre-approval is granted, the audit committee must (1) identify the particular pre-approved services in a sufficient level of detail so that our management will not be called upon to make a judgment as to whether a proposed service fits within the pre-approved services and (2) establish a monetary limit with respect to the total pre-approved services, which limit may not be exceeded without obtaining further pre-approval under the policy.
Our management periodically provides the audit committee with updates of proposed services for pre-approval. Any additional services which fall outside the scope of the annual service review process require advance approval by the audit committee. The audit committee may delegate to one or more designated members of the committee the authority to grant pre-approvals of permitted services, or classes of permitted services, to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. The decisions of a designated member to pre-approve a permitted service are reported to the audit committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting. While controls have been established to identify all services rendered by the independent registered public accounting firm, the audit committee recognizes that there may be some “de minimis” services provided that, while considered permitted services, may not be identified as non-audit services or reported immediately because of their “de minimis” nature. Such services may be approved prior to the completion of the audit by either the audit committee, or a designated member of the audit committee.
Certain Relationships and Policies on Related Party Transactions
The nominating and corporate governance committee of our board of directors has adopted written policies and procedures for the review of any transaction, arrangement or relationship in which Revvity was or is to be a participant, and in which one of our executive officers, directors, director nominees or 5% stockholders (or their immediate family members), or any entity in which persons listed above, either individually or in the aggregate, has a greater than 10% ownership interest, each of whom we refer to as a “related party,” has or will have a direct or indirect material interest, as determined by the committee. We refer to these transactions as “related party transactions.”
The policy calls for any proposed related party transaction to be reviewed and, if deemed appropriate, approved by our nominating and corporate governance committee. Whenever practicable, the review and approval will occur prior to entry into the transaction. If advance approval is not practicable, the committee will review, and, in its discretion, may approve the related party transaction. The policy also permits the Chair of the committee to review and, if deemed appropriate, approve proposed related party transactions that arise between committee meetings, in which case the Chair will report such transactions to the committee at its next meeting. Any related party transactions that are ongoing in nature will be reviewed annually. The committee will review and consider such information regarding the related party transaction as it deems appropriate under the circumstances.
The committee has determined that certain types of transactions, such as those excluded by the instructions to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s related person transaction disclosure rule, do not create a material direct or indirect interest on behalf of related parties and, therefore, are not related party transactions for purposes of this policy.
The committee may approve a related party transaction only if the committee determines that, under all of the circumstances, the transaction is in the best interest of Revvity and its shareholders.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
|
Our director compensation program is designed to provide a competitive level of compensation and to enable Revvity to attract and retain highly qualified board members. Annual compensation for our non-employee directors consists of a cash retainer and equity compensation. Our board service year begins on the date of our annual meeting of shareholders.
Our non-employee directors were paid the compensation described below for their service during the 2024 board service year.
Annual Cash Retainer
Each of our current non-employee directors was paid an annual cash retainer of $90,000 in four quarterly installments. Quarterly cash retainer installments are paid in May, August, November and February, which is the first month of each of the successive three-month periods following the annual meeting of shareholders.
Our Non-Executive Chair and the Chairs of our audit, compensation and benefits, and nominating and corporate governance committees were each paid an additional retainer in recognition of the further responsibilities carried by these roles. For 2024, our Non-Executive Chair was paid an additional annual cash retainer of $90,000, and the Chairs of our audit, compensation and benefits, and nominating and corporate governance committees were paid additional annual cash retainers of $25,000, $20,000 and $15,000, respectively.
The cash retainer is prorated to the nearest whole month for non-employee directors who serve for only a portion of the year. The retainer is also prorated for any director who attends fewer than 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of our board and the meetings of committees on which the director is a member. All of our directors fulfilled the meeting requirement in fiscal year 2024.
Equity Compensation
Our non-employee directors receive a portion of their annual compensation in the form of equity grants in two parts. A portion of the annual equity compensation is delivered in the form of an award of our common stock. The second portion is delivered in the form of a grant of restricted stock units, or RSUs, which vest 100% on the scheduled date for our next annual meeting of shareholders, subject to the director’s continued service through such date, or, if earlier, upon the director’s death, disability or qualifying retirement, or the termination of the director’s service within 12 months following a change in control. Each component of our non-employee equity compensation program is described in more detail below.
Stock Awards: In 2024, the Non-Executive Chair was awarded 1,413 shares and each of the other non-employee directors was awarded 1,218 shares of our common stock with a fair market value of $144,974 and $124,967, respectively. The number of shares granted was determined by dividing the target grant value by the closing price of our stock on the date of grant. The target amounts from which the grant amounts were calculated were $145,000 and $125,000, respectively. The granted shares are not subject to restrictions or vesting. We granted these awards on May 1, 2024, the annual grant date, which was the first day of the open trading window following our first quarter earnings release.
Restricted Stock Units: In 2024, the Non-Executive Chair was awarded a grant of 1,173 RSUs and each of the other non-employee directors was awarded a grant of 977 RSUs with a fair market value of $120,021 and $99,967, respectively. The target amounts from which the grant amounts were calculated were $120,000 and $100,000, respectively. Each RSU entitles the holder to receive one share of our common stock upon vesting. The number of RSUs granted was determined by dividing the target fair market value by the Black-Scholes value of an RSU on the date of grant. We granted these

Table of Contents
awards on May 1, 2024, the annual grant date. The annual RSU grant will fully vest on the scheduled date for our next annual meeting of shareholders, subject to the director’s continued service through such date or, if earlier, upon the director’s death, disability or qualifying retirement, or the termination of the director’s service within 12 months following a change in control.

NOTES
| (1) |
Directors who are employees of Revvity receive no additional compensation for their services as directors. Dr. Prahlad R. Singh, who serves on our board, was compensated in his capacity as our Chief Executive Officer and did not receive any additional compensation for his service as a director in 2024. His compensation is reported in the Summary Compensation Table. |
| (2) |
Variations in cash retainer amounts paid to individual directors in 2024 reflect additional retainer amounts paid to our Non-Executive Chair and directors holding committee Chair roles. Annual cash retainer values are paid quarterly in May, August, November and February. |
| (3) |
The grant date fair value of the annual RSU grant to our Non-Executive Chair and to each non-employee director in 2024 was $120,021 and $99,967, respectively. The annual RSU grants will fully vest on the scheduled date for our next annual meeting of shareholders, subject to the director’s continued service through such date or, if earlier, upon the director’s death, disability or qualifying retirement, or the termination of the director’s service within 12 months following a change in control. The grant date fair value of the annual share grant to our Non-Executive Chair and to each non-employee director in 2024 was $144,974 and $124,967, respectively, and these shares were not subject to restriction or vesting. The amounts reported in this column represent the aggregate grant date fair value of awards of RSUs and shares granted to each listed director in fiscal year 2024. As new board members, Mr. Klobuchar and Dr. Vandebroek each received additional equity grants on February 15, 2024 of 217 RSUs and 264 shares, which were calculated based on the target amounts for our regular annual director equity grants made in May 2023, pro-rated to reflect the portion of the board service year that Mr. Klobuchar and Dr. Vandebroek would serve from their appointments to the board effective February 1, 2024 and the end of the board service year on April 23, 2024. The grant date fair value of the additional RSU grant was $22,522 and the grant date fair value of the additional annual share grant was $27,474. For a more detailed description of the assumptions used for purposes of determining grant date fair values, see Note 16, Stock Plans, in the notes to consolidated financial statements in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024. |

Each of our non-employee directors held unvested restricted stock units as of December 29, 2024 as follows: Mr. Michas: 1,173; Drs. Barrett, McMurry-Heath, Vandebroek and Witney: 977; Messrs. Chapin, Klobuchar and Vounatsos: 977; and Ms. Witz: 977. None of our non-employee directors held stock options as of December 29, 2024. Our non-employee directors receive annual share grants which are not subject to restriction and therefore held no shares of restricted stock as of December 29, 2024.

Non-employee directors are provided with $250,000 of death benefit coverage under Revvity’s business travel accident insurance policy which provides coverage while traveling on Revvity business.
Revvity Foundation for Charitable Giving
Non-employee directors are eligible for up to a $5,000 per year match of their donations to eligible charities.
Director Stock Ownership Guidelines
Within five years of election to our board, we expect each non-employee director to own Revvity stock with a fair market value equal to at least five times the annual cash retainer. For fiscal 2024, this value was $450,000 for all non-employee directors. As of February 14, 2025, all of our directors were in compliance with our stock ownership guidelines. See “Beneficial Ownership of Common Stock” below for the beneficial stock ownership of our directors.
Changes to Director Compensation
Our compensation and benefits committee reviews and makes recommendations to the nominating and corporate governance committee regarding director compensation and director compensation policies on a bi-annual basis. As part of these periodic reviews, the compensation and benefits committee obtains data and analyses from an independent compensation consultant with respect to director compensation programs at a number of companies identified by the compensation and benefits committee and the compensation consultant as industry peers. Our director compensation, including annual retainers and equity awards, is therefore subject to adjustment.
On October 26, 2023, our board approved changes to director compensation that went into effect on April 23, 2024, the date of our 2024 annual meeting of shareholders. The fair market value of the annual equity retainer grants for each director was increased by $25,000 to $225,000 from the previous retainer of $200,000. No changes were made to annual cash retainer amounts or to the fair market value of the annual equity retainer grant for the Non-Executive Chair. No changes to director compensation were made for the 2025 board year.
Compensation for the Non-Executive Chair and compensation for directors for board years 2024 and 2025 was determined based on a comprehensive analysis of non-employee director compensation at a group of companies identified by the compensation and benefits committee’s compensation

consultant and the compensation and benefits committee as our peers (which was the same group of peer companies used by the committee in its evaluation of executive compensation for fiscal 2024). These recommendations were intended to align our board compensation with market practice, which enables us to continue to attract and retain highly qualified board members.

Executive Summary
To provide context for the full description of our executive compensation programs that follows, we highlight below key information and achievements that impacted our executive compensation program for 2024 and future periods.
2024 Performance Highlights
During fiscal year 2024, our team overcame industrywide headwinds leading to top quartile and differentiated financial results for the year. Our performance in the face of an evolving macro environment is both a testament to the hard work of our incredible team and the result of the transformation that has taken place at our Company in recent years, not only from a portfolio composition standpoint, but also from an operational agility and collaboration perspective. Highlights of our fiscal year 2024 performance include:
| • |
GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations of $2.30 for fiscal year 2024, as compared to GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations of $1.44 for fiscal year 2023. Adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations for fiscal year 2024 was $4.90, as compared to $4.65 in fiscal year 2023. |
| • |
GAAP revenue for fiscal year 2024 of $2,755 million, as compared to $2,751 million in fiscal year 2023. |
| • |
GAAP operating income from continuing operations for fiscal year 2024 of $347 million, as compared to $301 million in fiscal year 2023. |
| • |
GAAP operating profit margin from continuing operations was 12.6% as a percentage of revenue for fiscal year 2024, as compared to 10.9% for fiscal year 2023. |
A reconciliation of our GAAP results to the non-GAAP financial measure set forth above, adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations, can be found in Appendix A to this proxy statement.

Compensation Outcomes. Short- and long-term incentive plan payments made to our named executive officers were aligned with our financial results in 2024 as follows:
2024 Global Incentive Compensation Program (Global ICP). Achievement against 2024 Global ICP corporate financial goals for fiscal 2024 was 142% of target. Fiscal year 2024 performance relative to our Global ICP goals is described further under “Short-Term Incentive Program” below.
2022 Long-Term Incentive Program (LTIP). The three-year performance period under our 2022 LTIP concluded in fiscal year 2024. Adjusted revenue and adjusted earnings per share performance for the three-year period from 2022-2024 resulted in 0% achievement against LTIP financial goals, resulting in no vesting or payment of performance restricted stock units, or PRSUs, granted in 2022. We define adjusted revenue as GAAP revenue, including purchase accounting adjustments for revenue from contracts acquired in acquisitions that will not be fully recognized due to accounting rules. PRSU goals and payments under the 2022 LTIP are described further under “Long-Term Incentive Program” below.
We believe sustained performance against the combination of revenue and profitability financial goals represented in our executive incentive plans, as well as continued execution against our strategic goals, will create value for our shareholders over the long term.
Compensation Best Practices. We employ the following policies and practices that are designed to ensure our executive compensation programs are well-governed, reflect market-based best practices, and do not promote inappropriate risk-taking. The committee regularly reviews our executive compensation programs to ensure they are designed to reflect market-based best practices, effectively support the achievement of our financial and strategic goals, and do not promote inappropriate risk-taking. Our compensation practices include the following:
| ✔ What We Do | x What We Don’t Do | |||
| Clawback policy on incentive plans and certain stock option gains | No hedging or pledging of company stock | |||
| Meaningful stock ownership guidelines for our executives and directors | No excise tax gross-ups (new employment agreements entered into after July 2010) | |||
| Regular review of executive compensation and benefit program | No option repricing without stockholder approval | |||
| Independent Compensation and Benefits committee. Regular meetings in executive session without management | No unnecessary risk-taking in our compensation programs | |||
| Retain independent third-party compensation consultant | No single trigger equity vesting upon change in control (new employment agreements entered into after February 2010) | |||
| Annual shareholder advisory vote on executive compensation program | ||||
| Significant portion of executive compensation tied to company performance | ||||
| Annual compensation risk assessment process | ||||
| Evaluation of executive compensation occurs annually against a competitive company peer group | ||||

Shareholder Engagement. Our board adopted the recommendation of our shareholders to hold annual shareholder advisory votes on our executive compensation program, consistent with the outcome of the shareholder votes on the frequency of such votes at the 2011, 2017 and 2023 annual meetings of shareholders. At our 2024 annual meeting of shareholders, we held our annual shareholder advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers, or “say-on-pay” vote, as required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act. At the meeting, 95.7% of the shareholder votes cast were in favor of our say-on-pay proposal.
In advance of the say-on-pay vote, our management extended invitations to discuss our 2024 proxy statement, including the compensation discussion and analysis and our executive compensation program, to each of our twenty-five largest investors at that time (ranked by percentage owned of shares outstanding) to solicit their feedback and answer their questions. We have proactively extended this invitation to our largest investors on an annual basis for more than fifteen years, and plan to continue to do so in the future. Additionally, we also extend invitations to this same group of investors later in the year to provide feedback in connection with the release of our 2024 Impact Report.
Neither management nor the committee received feedback at the time from our investors suggesting specific changes to our executive compensation program during fiscal 2024. The committee also observed that 95.7% of the shareholder votes cast on the say-on-pay proposal at our 2024 annual meeting of shareholders were in support of our executive compensation program, consistent with a history of investor support for our executive compensation program.
Subsequent to the annual meeting, we continued to engage in a variety of investor outreach events including the Bank of America Securities 2024 Health Care Conference in May 2024; the 45th Annual Goldman Sachs Global Healthcare Conference in June 2024; the 2024 Wells Fargo Healthcare Conference in September 2024 and the 2024 Baird Global Healthcare Conference in September 2024; an Investor Day hosted by us in November 2024; the 7th Annual Evercore ISI HealthCONx Conference in December 2024; and the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference in January 2025. We also held several separate calls with investors over the course of the year. During these individual conversations, investors reiterated their continued support for our executive compensation programs and the alignment of our executive compensation performance metrics with the drivers of our long-term growth and success.
The committee will continue to carefully consider feedback from shareholders and we will continue to proactively solicit feedback from investors. The committee also annually engages its independent compensation consultant to present an overview of executive compensation trends that may be important to investors. The committee’s consideration of feedback from shareholders, along with market information and analysis provided by the independent compensation consultant, have influenced a number of changes to our executive compensation program over the past several years. The committee will also continue to design our executive compensation program guided by our executive compensation philosophy and core principles as described below.
Executive Compensation Philosophy and Core Principles: Overview
We apply the following compensation philosophy in structuring the compensation of our executive officers, including the named executive officers. We believe that pay should be performance-based, vary with the attainment of specific objectives, and be closely aligned with the interests of our shareholders. To implement this philosophy, the committee, working with management and the committee’s compensation consultant, has established core principles to guide the design and operation of our compensation program. We aim to:
| • |
provide market-competitive compensation to attract and retain executive talent with the capability to lead within a global company; |
| • |
emphasize variable pay to align executive compensation with the achievement of results that drive Revvity’s business strategy; |
| 30 | Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement |
Table of Contents
| • |
use equity-based incentive plans to tie a significant portion of compensation to Revvity’s long-term results and align the executive’s financial interests with those of our shareholders; |
| • |
deliver compensation in the aggregate that is commensurate with Revvity’s results; |
| • |
design executive compensation programs that are affordable for our Company, including with respect to impact on earnings; |
| • |
design executive incentive plans that do not promote inappropriate or excessive risk-taking; |
| • |
promote executive ownership of Revvity stock to further align executives’ financial interests with shareholders’ interests and to facilitate an ownership culture among executives; |
| • |
be flexible to respond to changing needs of the business; |
| • |
consider shareholder feedback; and |
| • |
be transparent, so that both executives and other stakeholders understand the executive compensation program and the objectives it seeks to achieve. |
Oversight of the Executive Compensation Program
The compensation and benefits committee directs the design and oversees the operation of our executive compensation program. A description of the committee’s structure, roles and responsibilities can be found above under the heading “Board of Directors Meetings and Committees.”
Role of the compensation and benefits committee. The agenda for meetings of the compensation and benefits committee is proposed by the Chair of the committee with assistance from our Chief Executive Officer and other members of management. Agenda topics are also proposed by committee members. At the invitation of the Chair of the committee, compensation and benefits committee meetings held in fiscal year 2024 were regularly attended by our Non-Executive Chair, Chief Executive Officer, our Senior Vice President, Administration, General Counsel and Secretary, our Senior Vice President, Chief People and Culture Officer, our Vice President, Total Rewards, as well as the committee’s compensation consultant. For part of each meeting, the committee meets in executive session without the Chief Executive Officer and other members of management present. The committee’s compensation consultant attends executive sessions as requested by the committee. The committee’s Chair regularly reports the committee’s recommendations and decisions on executive compensation to our board. The compensation and benefits committee has the authority under its charter to directly retain, review fees for, and terminate advisors and consultants as it deems necessary to assist in the fulfillment of its responsibilities.
Role of the independent compensation consultant. The independent compensation consultant provides data and analyses that serve as the basis for setting executive officer and director compensation levels and advises the committee on compensation decisions. The compensation consultant also advises the committee on the structure of executive officer and director compensation programs, including the design of incentive plans, the forms and mix of compensation, regulatory requirements and other topics relevant to executive and board compensation. During fiscal year 2024, the committee retained Pearl Meyer as its compensation consultant. The committee reviews the independence of its compensation consultant annually and found no conflict of interest with Pearl Meyer during its 2024 independence review. The committee’s compensation consultant does not provide services to our management. The committee has adopted protocols governing if and when its compensation consultant’s advice and recommendations to the committee can be shared with management, recognizing that, in advising the committee, it is necessary for the compensation consultant to interact with management to gather information. The committee also determines the appropriate forum for receiving recommendations from its compensation consultant. Where appropriate, the committee invites management to provide context for the recommendations. In other cases, the committee receives the compensation consultant’s recommendations in executive session where management is not present. The committee also engages directly with its compensation consultant between meetings, as deemed necessary by the committee. This approach further protects
| Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement | 31 |
Table of Contents
the committee’s ability to receive objective advice from the compensation consultant and establishes a forum for independent decisions about executive pay.
Role of our Chief Executive Officer. The Chief Executive Officer regularly attends a portion of each committee meeting. He provides the committee with his assessment of the performance of the other named executive officers and his perspective on the factors described above used to develop his recommendations for compensation. The committee discusses each named executive officer and the Chief Executive Officer’s recommendations in detail, including how the recommendations compare against the external market data, and how the compensation levels of the executives compare to each other and to the Chief Executive Officer’s. The committee approves or modifies the Chief Executive Officer’s recommendations. The Chief Executive Officer does not make recommendations to the committee, or participate in committee decision-making, regarding his own compensation.
Our Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers may be authorized by the committee to fulfill certain administrative duties regarding compensation and benefit programs.
At the end of the fiscal year, our Chief Executive Officer’s annual performance is evaluated by our full board against both his financial and non-financial goals, which are approved by the committee early in the fiscal year. In addition, he provides an assessment of his performance relative to the goals. The committee discusses the Chief Executive Officer’s assessment as well as the committee members’ and all other board members’ assessments of his performance in executive session. The Chief Executive Officer is not present during the executive session discussion of his performance. Working with its compensation consultant, the committee determines and approves the Chief Executive Officer’s base salary, short-term incentive plan target and payment under the Global ICP (consistent with the terms of the plan described below), and long-term incentive program targets and awards (consistent with the terms of the plan described below).
Determining Executive Pay
Market Positioning. The committee’s policy is to manage total target compensation (and each element) to the median of the competitive market over time. Through the range of opportunities provided in our short- and long-term incentive programs (each discussed more fully below), actual payments may exceed the median when our performance exceeds Revvity’s targeted objectives and may fall below the median when performance is below target. An individual named executive officer’s total compensation (or an element) in any given year may be set above or below median, depending on experience, tenure, performance and internal equity.
External Market Practices. The committee annually reviews market compensation levels to determine whether total compensation for our executives remains in the targeted pay range, and adjusts when appropriate. This assessment includes evaluation of base salary, and short- and long-term incentive opportunities against a peer group of industry companies with whom we compete for executive talent and in other business matters, supplemented with industry-specific aggregated survey data for companies of comparable size to Revvity, as measured by annual revenues. In general, the committee gives primary consideration to the peer group information because the peer companies resemble us more closely than the survey participants in terms of size and industry. The committee assesses the data by reviewing compensation arrangements for positions with comparable complexity and scope of responsibility to the positions at Revvity. In addition, the committee assesses rewards such as health benefits, retirement programs and perquisites relative to the market. The committee considers external market data as a general indication of competitive market pay levels and does not maintain a policy that executive officer pay must conform to a specific level relative to the market data.
Working with its compensation consultant, the committee reviews the peer group periodically to ensure that the peer companies selected remain appropriate for compensation and performance comparison purposes. Companies are selected based on industry and size, reflected by both revenue and market capitalization. The committee’s goal is to assemble a group of companies that represents our competitors for executive talent.

The peer companies used by the committee for pay comparisons and for evaluating relative performance leading to approval of 2024 executive compensation are shown below and were the same as the peer companies used by the committee in its evaluation of 2023 executive compensation.
The median revenue of the peer group at the time it was approved was $3,593 million and Revvity’s revenue was at the 25th percentile of the peer group at the time of the analysis. The median market capitalization of the peer group at the time it was approved was $15,327 million and Revvity was at the 45th percentile of the peer group at the time of the analysis.

Other Factors Influencing Compensation. When making compensation decisions, the committee takes many other factors into account, including the individual’s performance against individual goals (particularly over the past year), the individual’s expected future contributions to Revvity’s success, the financial and operational results of Revvity, the individual’s historical compensation and any retention concerns, and the Chief Executive Officer’s recommendations (in the case of named executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer). In looking at historical compensation, the committee looks at the progression of salary increases over time and also looks at the unvested and vested value of outstanding equity awards. The committee uses the same factors in evaluating the Chief Executive Officer’s performance and compensation that it uses for the other named executive officers.
Pay Mix. In accordance with our pay-for-performance compensation philosophy and because the named executive officers are in a position to directly influence the overall performance of the Company, they have a significant portion of their target compensation at risk through short- and long-term incentive programs. Not including the cost of benefits, in 2024, our Chief Executive Officer had 89% of his target compensation at risk, and on average, our other named executive officers had 80% of their target compensation at risk (that is, subject to either performance requirements and/or service requirements). Additionally, to align executive officer compensation with long-term corporate success, a significant percentage of the named executive officers’ target compensation opportunity is delivered in the form of long-term incentive compensation through our LTIP. In 2024, 75% of our Chief Executive Officer’s total target compensation opportunity and 66% of the other named executive officers’ total target compensation opportunity on average were delivered through long-term incentive compensation based on the fair market value on the date of grant. Half (50%) of the long-term incentive compensation granted to our named executive officers in fiscal 2024 will vest solely based upon the achievement of financial performance metrics. Also, to align the interests of executive officers with shareholders and to support an ownership culture, 100% of the named executive officers’, including the Chief Executive Officer’s, 2024 target long-term incentive compensation opportunity was provided using equity-based vehicles (stock options and PRSUs).

2024 Target Total Compensation
Pay at Risk
The committee has determined that our Chief Executive Officer should have a higher percentage of his total target compensation delivered in the form of performance-based incentives than the other named executive officers, due to his impact on, and higher accountability for, Company performance. Market and peer company information presented to the committee as part of the annual executive compensation program review supports that this is a competitive practice.
We expect to continue to deliver the majority of our target executive compensation through performance-based incentive programs, although the committee reserves the right to vary the pay mix by individual. The pay mix may also change annually, based on the committee’s evaluation of competitive external market practices and its determination of how to best align our executive incentive compensation programs with achievement of our business goals.
Pay for Results. We have a strong culture of paying for results. This is evidenced by the significant percentage of our executive compensation package tied to short- or long-term performance. In evaluating results against performance metrics and associated achievement, the committee looked primarily at overall corporate financial metrics as an indicator of business performance.
For 2024, the primary metrics for our Global ICP are organic revenue growth, adjusted EPS and free cash flow conversion. The metrics for our 2024 LTIP program are organic revenue growth and adjusted operating margin expansion. The metrics for our 2023 LTIP program are non-COVID organic revenue growth and adjusted operating margin expansion. The metrics for our 2022 LTIP program are adjusted revenue and adjusted EPS. Our 2024, 2023 and 2022 LTIP programs also include a relative TSR modifier as a performance metric. The committee selected these metrics to capture the most important aspects of financial performance in the form of revenue growth, profitability and shareholder return.
We use the term organic revenue growth to refer to the measure of comparing organic revenue for the year in question with organic revenue for the prior year. We use the term organic revenue to refer to GAAP revenue, excluding the effect of foreign currency changes and revenue from recent acquisitions and divestitures and including purchase accounting adjustments for revenue from contracts acquired in acquisitions that will not be fully recognized due to accounting rules.
We define adjusted EPS as earnings per share adjusted for the impact of items related to acquisitions, divestitures, business repositioning, mark-to-market on post-retirement benefits and certain other items.
Free cash flow conversion measures our ability to convert net income into free cash flow by looking at operating cash flow less capital expenditures. We use the term free cash flow to refer to net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of continuing operations, less payments for additions to property, plant and equipment from continuing operations (“capital expenditures”) plus the proceeds from sales of plant, property and equipment from continuing operations (“capital disposals”).

We define adjusted operating margin expansion as the change year over year in the operating margin percent of revenue.
We define Non-COVID organic revenue as revenue adjusted for the impact of items related to foreign exchange, acquisitions, divestitures and certain other items, and excluding revenue from COVID-related products and services, and the related term Non-COVID organic revenue growth to refer to the measure of comparing organic revenue for the year in question excluding revenue from COVID-related products and services with organic revenue for the prior year excluding revenue from COVID-related products and services. We define COVID revenue as revenue from the sales of COVID-related products and services, and we distinguish it from organic revenue to maintain focus on the growth of our core businesses.
We define adjusted revenue as GAAP revenue, including purchase accounting adjustments for revenue from contracts acquired in acquisitions that will not be fully recognized due to accounting rules.
Organic revenue growth was selected for the 2024 Global ICP and 2024 LTIP, because this metric reflects financial performance, which is a strong indicator of our long-term ability to drive shareholder value. Adjusted EPS and free cash flow conversion were selected for the 2024 Global ICP and adjusted operating margin expansion was selected for the 2024 LTIP because these metrics measure profitability, which provides us with the means to invest in both product and service innovation as well as business development opportunities that fuel revenue growth. We believe that the combination of strong top-and bottom-line financial performance creates shareholder value growth that is sustainable over the long term. Relative TSR was included as a modifier in our 2024, 2023 and 2022 LTIP programs in order to reward the creation of shareholder value as measured by stock price performance relative to an industry index. Relative TSR was included beginning with our 2022 LTIP program as a result of investor feedback. In establishing performance objectives , the committee also reviews the performance of our industry peer group, referring to companies which are the best comparators for each of our businesses, and setting performance goals within the context of our strategic business plan. More information about the performance metrics and the goals for our short- and long-term incentive programs is provided below.
Components of the Executive Officer Compensation Program
Our executive compensation program is a robust, highly performance-driven program intended to generate both long-term sustainable shareholder value and near-term focus on financial performance, operational excellence, quality and innovation. We accomplish this through two primary incentive vehicles in addition to base pay. First, to address short-term performance, we have our Global ICP annual cash incentive plan, which we also refer to as our short-term incentive program. The Global ICP operates on an annual performance period comprising the full fiscal year. Global ICP payments are made based on achievement against pre-defined financial targets for fiscal year 2024, as set forth above.
Second, our executive officers participate in our LTIP program. The LTIP is structured with overlapping three-year performance cycles. In 2024, the LTIP program included PRSUs and, through our equity choice program, the choice to receive the remainder of the grant in either stock options and RSUs or fully in stock options. The three-year performance goals in our LTIP are aligned with our strategic planning process and are designed to focus our executives on making and executing decisions that drive growth and create lasting shareholder value.
For 2024, our executive officer compensation program consisted of base salary, our short-term incentive program, our long-term incentive program or LTIP (comprising PRSUs, and either stock options or a combination of stock options and RSUs), and benefits and other perquisites. The

In 2024, the committee reviewed all compensation, benefits and perquisites provided to the named executive officers. The specific rationale, design, reward process, and related information for each element are outlined below.
Base Salary
Base salaries for executive officers are determined based on the committee’s evaluation of the scope and impact of each executive’s position, as well as the skills, knowledge and experience they bring to their roles, relative to the competitive peer group referenced above. Generally, the committee refers to the median of the relevant competitive market for the position as part of the base salary evaluation, but any individual named executive officer may have a base salary above or below the median of the market. The committee evaluates external market data for each position and internal pay equity, as well.
Working with Pearl Meyer, the committee reviewed the total target compensation package for each officer in order to determine and approve the target compensation package for each officer for 2024. The Pearl Meyer analysis presented to the committee in late 2023 that the committee used to evaluate total target compensation for 2024 reported that base salaries for our named executive officers in 2023 were generally competitive with market levels in aggregate. On an individual level, the base salaries paid to each of our named executive officers in 2023 were positioned, on average, at the 40th percentile for their respective job matches at the peer companies as previously identified in the “Determining Executive Pay — External Market Practices” section above. Compensation for each executive officer was also reviewed in light of internal equity, the scope and impact of the position to our Company, and the performance of each individual in their respective roles.
Based on the factors described above, including performance and the analysis of market information presented by Pearl Meyer, the committee approved base salary increases for each of Mr. Krakowiak and Ms. Victor and the effective dates for such increases as set forth in the
| 36 | Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement |
Table of Contents
table below. Dr. Singh, Mr. Goldberg and Mr. Vohra did not receive a base salary increase as their base salaries were determined to be well positioned relative to the competitive peer group. The base pay increases for Mr. Krakowiak and Ms. Victor were approved in January 2024 with a target effective date of April 1, 2024. In February 2024, the committee approved a delay of the effective date of the approved base pay increases in an effect to control costs given uncertain and challenges conditions in the life sciences industry. In August 2024, the committee approved moving forward with the approved merit increases effective September 2, 2024.

Short-Term Incentive Program
The Global ICP is our short-term incentive program and is a core component of our pay-for-performance executive compensation program. The program components include the award opportunity (expressed as a percentage of base salary), the performance measures (such as adjusted EPS) and their weightings, and the strategic performance objectives (such as execution of a specific strategic initiative).
Award opportunities
The committee establishes the target award opportunity for each named executive officer based on competitive market analysis (target Global ICP opportunities are generally positioned within a reasonable range of the median of the competitive market), the desired emphasis on pay at risk (more pay at risk for more senior executives) and internal equity (comparably positioned executives should have comparable award opportunities). Positioning target Global ICP opportunities generally at the market median underscores the committee’s compensation strategy that compensation levels should approximate market median levels when performance meets target expectations, and that pay should exceed median levels only when performance exceeds Revvity’s targeted objectives. The 2024 target Global ICP award opportunity for each named executive officer was as follows:

Performance measures and weightings
The Global ICP performance period for our named executive officers comprises the full fiscal year. Awards are based on attainment of annual corporate financial performance. At the committee meeting held in January 2024, the committee established the Global ICP financial performance goals for fiscal 2024. The performance goals were based on the fiscal 2024 operating plan, budget and strategic plan reviewed by our board.
The performance metrics and weightings for the fiscal 2024 Global ICP were as follows:

|
|

|

|
|

|

|
The committee assigned a weighting of 40% to organic revenue growth in reflection of our focus on growing our core businesses. The inclusion of adjusted EPS was designed to focus our leadership team on both growing revenue and operating a profitable business, which are critical to creating shareholder value. Free cash flow conversion was included as a measure as strong cash generation is a leading indicator of efficient operating performance.
All of our named executive officers were assigned the same set of performance metrics reflecting their shared accountability for corporate results.
Performance against goals may be adjusted for certain events including acquisitions, divestitures, currency exchange, and other non-recurring events during the performance period as approved by the committee. The definition of allowable adjustments is approved by the committee at the time the goals are set.
In an effort to ensure the integrity of these goals and minimize the risk of unanticipated outcomes, each financial metric has a target goal with a performance range built around it, with a commensurate increase or decrease in the associated award opportunity. The range of performance goals and associated award opportunities under the program is expressed in the form of a “minimum”, “target” and “maximum”. If results fall below the minimum goal, the short-term incentive amount associated with that goal is not paid. If results exceed pre-established maximum goals, the cash award payout associated with financial performance is capped at the maximum award opportunity. The committee believes that a maximum cap reduces the likelihood of windfalls and makes the maximum cost of the plan predictable. For 2024, achievement of the “minimum” level of performance for each financial metric would result in achievement of 50% of the target award associated with that financial metric, and achievement of the “maximum” level of performance for each financial metric would result in achievement of 200% of the target award associated with that financial metric. Actual awards may exceed 200% based on the committee’s evaluation of individual performance.
Strategic performance objectives
The Global ICP also incorporates an individual performance modifier that is applied based on the achievement of individual strategic performance objectives as listed in the table below. At the January 2024 committee meeting, the committee established these strategic performance objectives for each named executive officer for fiscal 2024. The objectives vary for each named executive officer, reflecting their specific responsibilities and role within Revvity. They may include financial or strategic measures aligned with the fiscal 2024 operating plan, budget and strategic plan reviewed by our board. The individual performance modifier allows the committee to recognize individual performance contributions that impact overall company results. The committee retains the discretion

to adjust an individual’s calculated bonus, either upward or downward, based on performance during the period, while ensuring that objectives remain specific and measurable.

2024 Short-term incentive payments
Performance against Global ICP goals. The 2024 Global ICP target goals, actual results and associated Global ICP achievement levels are shown below. Results were adjusted by allowable items as approved by the committee, including currency fluctuation from the time the goals were established and divestitures. Organic revenue growth results were between the minimum and target goals. Free cash flow conversion results were between the target and maximum goals. Adjusted EPS results exceeded the goal for maximum level payments as we achieved +5% growth year-over-year in a challenging market environment. These outcomes resulted in overall achievement against the Global ICP goals of 142%.

The range of performance goals for each financial metric is set primarily based on our annual operating plan and our business expectations for the year. External performance expectations are also considered. The goals for “minimum” level payments are set to reasonable performance levels and result in only partial bonus payment. “Target” awards reflect our business plan goals for the period. “Maximum” awards are paid based on aggressive goals which can be attained only when business results are exceptional.
During 2024, we advanced our purpose to expand the boundaries of human potential through science and made meaningful strides to more fully integrate our recent acquisitions and capitalize on initial synergy opportunities, and we rightsized our operations for the company we have become, all while bringing significant new innovations to the market. Collectively and individually, our leadership team delivered differentiated performance despite market headwinds, demonstrating the strength of our product portfolio, continued innovation, and investments in our people. Our overall revenue in fiscal year 2024 increased by $4.5 million, or less than 1%, as compared to fiscal year 2023, reflecting an increase of $42.7 million, or 3%, in Diagnostics segment revenue and a decrease of $38.2 million, or 3%, in Life Sciences segment revenue. The increase in Diagnostics segment revenue was primarily driven by increased demand in our immunodiagnostics and reproductive health businesses, partially offset by a decrease in revenue from our applied genomics business. The decrease in Life Sciences segment revenue was driven by a decrease in instruments and reagents revenue due to pharmaceutical and biotechnology market headwinds, partially offset by an increase in software revenue from the timing of contract renewals and new orders. Overall, we believe that our range of product offerings, leading market positions, global scale, financial strength, and strong culture, provide us with a foundation for continued long-term growth, margin expansion and robust cash flow generation.
At the January 2025 meeting, the committee reviewed each named executive officer’s performance relative to their individual strategic performance objectives for 2024 and approved the individual performance modifiers outlined below to recognize their contributions. The strategic goals were designed to create individual accountability for the achievement of strategic and operational business results during fiscal 2024. The committee believes that its ability to exercise discretion in connection with awarding annual executive short-term cash incentives allows for considered compensation decisions that are consistent with our strategy and balances rewards for both current

year performance and sustained long-term value creation. The committee’s ability to exercise discretion provides flexibility to address changes in economic conditions and our operating environment that occur during the performance period and helps mitigate the risks associated with a strictly formulaic compensation program, which could unintentionally create incentives for our executives to focus only on certain performance metrics. The performance against individual strategic performance objectives was applied in the committee’s determination of each named executive officer’s individual performance affecting their 2024 Global ICP bonus payment after taking into account each named executive officer’s execution against the individual strategic performance objectives, the size of the company payout percentage for the year, and the amount of annual cash incentive compensation that peer companies typically pay to executives serving in comparable roles. The average individual performance modifier of the named executive officers (other than Dr. Singh) was 115%.
Dr. Singh’s individual performance modifier for the Global ICP award was set at 120%, reflecting the company’s strong financial and operational performance and several strategic achievements. These included the successful completion of discussions with New Mountain Capital regarding the divestiture of our Applied, Food, and Enterprise Services business and the transfer of the former brand name; successful organizational optimization and restructuring; progress in advancing digital/AI and business development initiatives; the launch of a fully integrated e-commerce platform; year-over-year reductions in scope one and two emissions and hazardous waste; and key efforts in leadership succession planning and talent development.

The short-term incentive payments to our named executive officers for 2024 are shown in the Summary Compensation Table that follows this report.
Long-Term Incentive Program (LTIP)
The committee uses long-term incentive awards to focus our executive officers on long-term performance and to align the executive officers’ financial interests with those of our shareholders. The committee grants LTIP awards to our executive officers annually, with each LTIP cycle spanning a three-year period. As a result, we have three active LTIP cycles during each fiscal year.
LTIP targets: In October 2023, the committee reviewed peer and survey data presented by Pearl Meyer together with the level of LTIP opportunities for the named executive officers for 2023 to set target award opportunities for our named executive officers in 2024. The LTIP target opportunity for Dr. Singh for 2023 was 700% of base salary and the LTIP opportunities for the non-CEO named executive officers ranged from 250% to 350% of base salary, which ranged between less than the 25th to greater than the 75th percentile of LTIP target opportunities for comparable positions in the peer group. For 2024, the committee approved an LTIP target opportunity of 750% of base salary for Dr. Singh to bring him closer to the 50th percentile for other Chief Executive Officer positions in the peer group, and the committee approved the 2024 LTIP target opportunities for the non-CEO named executive officers with adjustments as needed to bring them closer to the 50th percentile of the peer

group. In all cases, 2024 target opportunity values were set at levels the committee believed would compensate the executives for future achievement of our long-term financial goals and stock price appreciation in a manner commensurate with the executives’ duties and contributions.
Based on its review of the Pearl Meyer analysis, internal equity, and the scope and impact of their roles, the committee approved 2024 LTIP target opportunities as a multiple of base salary for our named executive officers as follows:

All of the named executive officers participating in LTIP in 2024 elected under our equity choice program to receive approximately half of the long-term incentive opportunity in the form of non-qualified stock options. Approximately half of the award for all named executive officers was provided in PRSUs.
In structuring the LTIP program, the committee believes it is important to retain stock options and RSUs with time-based vesting as a significant element of the program to continue to capture the motivational benefits of rewarding executives for appreciation in our stock price over the course of multiple years. The inclusion of the choice between stock options and RSUs with our equity choice program provides an additional opportunity to further this objective with a cost-neutral way to maximize the perceived value of LTIP to our executives through personalized customization. To

streamline the administration of our equity choice program, RSUs replaced Restricted Shares in the 2024 LTIP. The PRSU portion of LTIP further aligns the long-term incentive program with important drivers of long-term shareholder value, as vesting is based on achievement of key financial performance goals during the three-year period. This approach to long-term incentive compensation builds upon the committee’s pay-for-performance philosophy and provides a balanced focus on stock price appreciation and the achievement of financial metrics that are drivers of long-term shareholder value creation.
LTIP Performance Metrics: The committee has approved revenue and profitability performance metrics for the PRSU component of our LTIP that reflect our continued focus on long-term profitable growth. We believe sustained performance against revenue and profitability goals will create value for our shareholders over the long term. The revenue and profitability metrics approved for each LTIP are described in more detail, below. At the end of the three-year performance period, the Company must achieve aggressive financial goals previously approved by the committee in order for PRSUs to vest. The committee assigns minimum, target and maximum goals for each performance factor. If the minimum goal is not met, no PRSU share delivery will be made for that performance factor. Performance goals for the PRSU component of our LTIP are set based on our extended business projections and long-term strategic plans. Evaluation of achievement against goals, and any resulting PRSUs granted, is conducted at the end of the three-year performance period. Goal measurement may be adjusted for certain events including acquisitions, divestitures, currency fluctuations, and other non-recurring events as approved by the committee. The challenging nature of our performance goals is reflected in the fact that the 2022-2024 PRSUs funded at 0% of target.
The committee included a relative TSR performance modifier in the 2022, 2023 and 2024 LTIP program design. At the time of establishing our 2022, 2023 and 2024 LTIP, the committee approved custom peer groups of 34, 33 and 31 companies, respectively, against which our TSR would be evaluated at the end of the three-year LTIP performance period. These peer groups included more companies than the peer groups used for the evaluation of our overall executive compensation program because they are used to measure performance over a three-year period, and companies will be removed from the custom peer groups if they are acquired during the applicable three-year performance period. Our 2022, 2023 and 2024 LTIP relative TSR peer groups included all of our executive compensation peer group companies at the time, plus additional companies found within the Life Sciences Tools Services and Healthcare Equipment Supplies sectors. Our 2024 relative TSR peer group is provided in the table below.

2022 LTIP Performance: In January 2022, the committee approved the 2022 LTIP. The committee approved performance targets for the PRSUs for the entire three-year performance period at grant. The PRSUs were to vest based on performance against three-year average total adjusted revenue (60% weighting) and adjusted earnings per share (40% weighting) goals. The committee determined these metrics and their associated weighting provided an appropriate balance between long-term top-line revenue growth and profitability. We do not disclose goals and targets for the LTIP program in the year of grant given that we do not provide long-term forecasts. As such, we disclose the LTIP goals and targets at the end of the applicable performance period.
Performance against the financial goals set for the PRSUs granted under the 2022 LTIP was evaluated at the end of fiscal year 2024. Three-year average adjusted revenue of $2.78 billion was below the minimum goal of $3.1 billion and resulted in performance achievement of 0%. 2024 adjusted earnings per share of $4.95 was below the minimum goal of $5.65 resulting in performance achievement of 0%. The achievement percentages were weighted in accordance with the original metric weightings approved by the committee and resulted in achievement of 0% against the financial goals. Three-year average adjusted revenue and 2024 adjusted earnings per share as shown in the table below were calculated on a constant currency basis and adjusted for divestitures as approved by the committee. Relative TSR achievement against the peer group was in the 35 th percentile, resulting in no upwards or downwards modification of the calculated financial results.
The committee determined that 0% vesting of PRSUs was aligned with financial performance during the three-year 2022 LTIP performance period and did not approve any vesting of the 2022 LTIP PRSUs. Accordingly, no PRSUs were converted to shares and transferred to the named executive officers in early 2025.

Our 2023-2025 LTIP Structure
The in-progress 2023 LTIP program has the same plan components, weightings among stock options, restricted shares and PRSUs and vesting provisions as those shown above for our 2022 LTIP. For our 2024 LTIP, restricted stock was replaced with restricted stock units that vest one-third annually on the anniversary of the grant date. Also for the 2024 LTIP, before the grant date, each executive officer, including our named executive officers, was given the opportunity to elect to receive either (i) the standard allocation of 2024 LTIP grant value of approximately one-quarter of the long-term incentive opportunity in the form of non-qualified stock options, approximately one-quarter in restricted stock units, and approximately half in PRSUs or (ii), alternatively, to receive an allocation of 2024 LTIP grant value of approximately half of the long-term incentive opportunity in the form of non-qualified stock options, no restricted stock units, and approximately half in PRSUs. These changes for the 2024 LTIP program reflect the committee’s belief that introducing the element of choice maximizes the perceived value of our LTIP program. Our 2025 LTIP program has the same plan components, weightings among stock options, RSUs and PRSUs, vesting provisions and choice between RSUs and stock options as shown above for our 2024 LTIP.
Achievement against PRSU targets is based on performance measures established for each LTIP grant against a set of three-year financial goals. The financial measures and weightings for each in progress LTIP grant in 2025 are as follows:

Benefits
In addition to base salary, and short- and long-term incentive awards, our executive officers also participate in certain employee benefit programs. These benefit programs are designed to be competitive with market practices and to attract and retain the executive talent we need.
Retirement and Deferred Compensation Programs
Qualified Officer Retirement Benefit
In January 2021, the committee approved a qualified officer retirement benefit whereby equity awards subject to three-year cliff vesting, which included restricted stock and PRSUs, would accelerate on a proportional basis upon a qualified retirement from the Company. This benefit took effect with grants made under the 2021 LTIP program and applies to grants made under the 2022 and 2023 LTIP programs. In October 2023, following a review of peer and market practices, the committee approved modifications to this benefit whereby newly issued equity awards subject to three-year cliff vesting, which include the PRSUs granted as part of the 2024 and 2025 LTIP program, would vest on a continued and proportional basis following a qualified retirement from the Company. Equity awards subject to annual three-year vesting, which include non-qualified stock options and restricted stock units granted as part of the 2024 and 2025 LTIP program, would vest on a non-accelerated full basis following a qualified retirement from the Company.
Qualified 401(k) Plan and 401(k) Excess Benefit
All of our U.S. employees, including the named executive officers, are eligible to participate in our tax-qualified Section 401(k) plan which includes Company matching contributions.
During 2024, Mr. Goldberg was eligible to receive a 401(k) Excess benefit. It is designed to provide only the benefit that the executive would have accrued under our tax-qualified plan if the Internal Revenue Code limits had not applied. It does not further enhance those benefits. In December 2010, the committee amended our 401(k) Excess benefit to cease elective deferrals for plan years beginning January 1, 2011. As such, none of our other named executive officers were eligible to receive a 401(k) Excess benefit in 2024 as they joined Revvity after elective deferrals ceased. The matching contributions for our 401(k) plan and contributions made under our 401(k) Excess benefit are included in the “All Other Compensation” column of the Summary Compensation Table and, in the case of the 401(k) Excess benefit, the Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan Table (which also includes each eligible named executive officer’s account balance as of the end of fiscal year 2024).
Deferred Compensation Plan
In December 2010, the committee amended our non-qualified deferred compensation plan to eliminate deferral elections from participants for plan years beginning January 1, 2011 or later. Prior to the amendment, a select group of highly compensated management employees was eligible to participate in the plan, including our named executive officers while employed by us and our directors who were serving on our board prior to the amendment. The 2008 Deferred Compensation Plan allowed participants to defer certain types of compensation and designate notional investments in a selection of mutual funds or Revvity stock. Company contributions of 401(k) Excess benefits will continue to be made to this plan for eligible participants. The plan does not provide for above-market returns. The deferred compensation plan was amended in 2022 to permit participation by certain legacy employees of BioLegend, and in 2024, the plan was further amended to reopen the plan for new elective deferrals by a select group of management, including each of our named executive officers beginning January 1, 2025. For more information about the Deferred Compensation Plan, please refer to “Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan” following the 2024 Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan Table, below.

Officer Programs
We provide a limited number of personal benefit programs to eligible officers which we believe are competitive with overall market practices and which the committee has determined are appropriate to attract and retain key executives. The committee periodically reviews external market data to determine the types and value levels of programs we should provide. The committee also determines eligibility for officer programs.
All of our named executive officers are eligible for the Officer Matching Gift Program and the Executive Physical programs described below. Mr. Goldberg is eligible for the Executive Life and ADD Insurance program, also described below.
| • |
Officer Matching Gift Program: The Revvity Foundation will make matching gifts to qualified institutions of the officer’s choice up to an aggregate annual maximum of $50,000 per year for the Chief Executive Officer and $25,000 per year for other eligible officers. The program is provided in order to encourage our executives to support community and other not-for-profit organizations. |
| • |
Executive Physical: Eligible officers may receive a full annual executive physical paid by Revvity. The physical is provided to encourage proactive management of health and well-being. |
| • |
Executive Life and ADD Insurance: Eligible officers are covered by an executive life and accidental death and dismemberment insurance plan that pays a death benefit equal to four times the executive’s base salary. Officers eligible for executive life and ADD coverage pay the associated tax on insurance premiums. The committee ceased eligibility for executive life and ADD insurance to newly hired and promoted officers in fiscal 2010. |
Employment Agreements and Severance/Change in Control Arrangements
All of our named executive officers have employment agreements. The committee believes these agreements benefit Revvity by clarifying the terms of employment and ensuring that we are protected by non-compete, non-solicitation, and non-disclosure provisions. We also believe these agreements are necessary for us to attract and retain senior talent in a competitive market. Furthermore, the committee believes that change in control benefits, if structured appropriately, serve to minimize the distraction caused by a potential transaction and reduce the risk that key talent will leave the organization before a transaction closes. These departures could reduce the value of the organization to a buyer or to the shareholders if a transaction fails to close.
The arrangements provide severance benefits to our named executive officers in the event of an involuntary termination not for “cause”, or voluntary termination following a change in control where the executive has “good reason”, as these terms are defined in the agreements. The benefits under the agreements are generally larger if the termination is associated with a change in control.
Our employment agreements with our named executive officers also provide for acceleration of vesting in certain situations, such as upon, or following, a change in control of Revvity.
For Mr. Goldberg, who was hired prior to certain changes approved by the committee that are described below, a tax gross-up is provided, if necessary, to make him whole for certain excise taxes imposed under the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, effective upon a change in control, 100% of Mr. Goldberg’s stock options, restricted shares and PRSUs would vest.
Following an evaluation of market practices, the committee determined on February 25, 2010 that future employment agreements issued to newly promoted or newly hired officers will provide 100% equity vesting following a change in control only if the officer’s employment is terminated within a specified period of time following the change in control. On July 30, 2010, the committee also determined that future employment agreements entered into with newly promoted or newly hired officers will not include a tax gross-up for excise taxes imposed under the Internal Revenue Code. Consistent with these decisions, the employment agreements issued to Dr. Singh, Messrs. Krakowiak
| Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement | 47 |
Table of Contents
and Vohra and Ms. Victor do not include a tax gross-up for excise taxes imposed under the Internal Revenue Code, and their equity will vest following a change in control only for a qualifying termination of employment within a specified period of time following the change in control.
The committee periodically reviews the benefits provided under the agreements to ensure they serve Revvity’s interests in retaining key executives, are consistent with market practice, and are reasonable. Details of each named executive officer’s agreement, and the estimated payments that each named executive officer would receive under different termination circumstances, are set forth below in “Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control”.
Additional Compensation Policies
Stock Ownership Guidelines
The committee has determined that in order to further align management and shareholder interests, executive stock ownership should be significant relative to each executive officer’s base salary. Executives are expected to attain these ownership levels within five years after their election or appointment. Ownership level determination includes stock acquired through the open market, through the exercise of stock options or vesting of RSUs after which the shares are held, shares granted under restricted stock grants and shares held by immediate family members, including through family trusts. Shares held in our 401(k) and our deferred compensation plans are also counted. The intrinsic value of vested, in-the-money outstanding stock options is excluded from ownership level determinations.
Our stock ownership guidelines are expressed as the fair market value of the shares held as a multiple of annual base salary. The stock ownership guidelines for our executive officers (including our named executive officers) are as follows:
|
Officer Position |
Stock Ownership Guidelines |
|
|
Chief Executive Officer |
5 times annual base salary | |
|
Executive and Senior Vice President |
2 times annual base salary | |
|
Vice President |
1 times annual base salary | |
As of February 14, 2025, all of our named executive officers were in compliance with the stock ownership guidelines.
Sales of Securities
Pursuant to our Securities Trading Policy, all trading in Revvity securities by our named executive officers must be conducted under pre-established 10b5-1 trading plans. These 10b5-1 plans are subject to Company approval, can be entered into or amended only during open trading windows, impose a waiting period between adoption of a plan and initiation of trades, and have a maximum duration of one year. All trading in our securities by our directors requires pre-clearance from the office of our general counsel. Our Securities Trading Policy prohibits all employees, including our named executive officers, from engaging in “short” sales of our stock (unless the sale is part of a permitted “cashless” exercise of stock options) and from trading in any form of derivative security or instrument linked to our stock. The policy also prohibits pledging of Revvity stock by our officers.
Clawback Policies
Our executive officer Global ICP includes a recoupment provision applicable to all plan awards paid to executive officers for performance periods beginning on or after December 30, 2013. In the event we are required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under United States federal securities laws, the committee will have the right to recover all or a portion of the excess paid to the executive officer over the award payment that would have been paid to the executive officer under the accounting restatement. The
| 48 | Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement |
Table of Contents
recoupment provision applies to awards paid to current and former executive officers within the three-year period preceding the date on which we file an accounting restatement with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The committee, in its sole discretion, will make the determination whether to recover all or a portion of any excess award payment. Effective October 2, 2023, the committee approved a clawback policy and adopted revisions to the Global ICP plan recoupment provision in accordance with rules promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the New York Stock Exchange.
Officers, including our named executive officers, who are granted stock options under the LTIP, sign a Prohibited Activity Agreement. This agreement requires the officer to repay gains on stock options exercised within the last year of employment if the officer solicits, recruits or induces an employee or consultant of Revvity to end their employment with us, or engages directly or indirectly with a competing business (as defined in the agreement) within two years after the officer’s termination date.
Equity Award Granting Practices
The following practices apply to all of our equity awards, including grants made under our LTIP. Our 2009 Incentive Plan was approved by shareholders at our 2009 annual meeting of shareholders and reapproved by shareholders at our 2014 annual meeting of shareholders. Our 2019 Incentive Plan was approved by shareholders at our 2019 annual meeting of shareholders. Our 2009 Incentive Plan was the sole plan under which we granted equity awards from the date of its approval by shareholders until the approval of our 2019 Incentive Plan. The 2019 Incentive Plan has been the sole plan under which we grant equity awards since the date of its approval by shareholders.
These incentive plans provide for grants of stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, other stock unit awards, performance units, and cash performance awards. The plans give the committee the latitude to design cash and stock-based incentive programs that promote high performance and the achievement of corporate goals. Employees, including our named executive officers and non-employee directors, are eligible to receive awards under these plans.
We grant stock options on an annual basis to members of our management, including our executive officers, as well as certain other senior employees. We grant RSUs on an annual basis to our other employees. We may also grant stock options or RSUs to individuals upon hire or promotion or for retention purposes. We currently do not grant stock appreciation rights or similar option-like instruments. During the last fiscal year, neither our board nor the committee took material nonpublic information into account when determining the timing or terms of stock options, nor did we time the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.
While we do not have any policy or obligation that requires us to grant stock options on specified dates, our annual stock option grants are typically approved at the first committee meeting of each year with the approved grants becoming effective, and the option exercise price set, on the first day of the open trading window following the release of full-year earnings, which is the date of grant. Therefore, the annual grants typically take place after the release of material information regarding our annual financial performance. Option grants for new hires, and option grants that we make in connection with promotions or for retention purposes, typically become effective, with the option exercise price being set, on a grant date that is the 15 th day of the month following the month of hire, promotion or determination to make the grant for retention purposes. During fiscal 2024, we did not grant stock options to any named executive officer during any period beginning four business days before and ending one business day after the filing of any Form 10-Q or 10-K or the filing or furnishing of a Form 8-K that disclosed material nonpublic information.
The stock option exercise price is set at the average of the high and low prices on the date of grant. We believe this practice results in a grant price which more fairly represents the stock price over the course of the date of grant than the closing price on the date of grant, which could be arbitrarily high or low.
| Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement | 49 |
Table of Contents
Our board administers all equity grants within the authority established within Revvity’s shareholder-approved incentive plans and, as permitted under the plans, delegates authority to administer the plans to the committee. The committee establishes the terms and conditions of each award, including vesting and performance criteria, and the time period applicable to the award. The committee may delegate approval to grant equity awards to non-officers to our stock award grant committee of which Dr. Singh is the sole member. The stock award grant committee does not have the authority to issue equity grants to officers.
At the end of fiscal year 2024, we had 4.8 million shares reserved for future equity grants. We had 1.6 million outstanding options and unvested shares, which represent 1.3% of our common shares outstanding. Our total dilution including shares reserved for future grants and outstanding options and unvested shares was 5.3%. In 2024, we granted 0.3 million shares (including shares granted under options and RSUs) or 0.28% of our common shares outstanding. The committee annually reviews the potential dilutive effect of equity award programs from both a share and economic perspective as compared to industry peers. For fiscal year 2023, share dilution for our peer companies was 1.5% at the 25th percentile, 1.8% at median, and 2.9% at the 75th percentile (shares outstanding plus shares available for future grant).

NOTES
| (1) |
The awards shown in this table were granted under our 2019 Incentive Plan unless otherwise indicated below. The types of awards are as follows: |
PRSU = Performance restricted stock units with performance-based vesting
OPT = Stock options with time-based vesting
GICP = Global ICP (short-term incentive bonus)
| (2) |
On January 25, 2024, the compensation and benefits committee reviewed stock option and PRSU grants for Dr. Singh, Messrs. Krakowiak, Goldberg, and Vohra and Ms. Victor, and approved them with an effective grant date of the second business day following the release of our 2023 full-year earnings, which was February 5, 2024. Therefore, the date of grant was after the release of material information regarding our 2023 financial performance. |
| (3) |
Eligible named executive officers received a grant of PRSUs in 2024 under our LTIP. These awards have a three-year performance period. The number of PRSUs to be granted to an LTIP participant is determined by dividing the award value associated with the PRSUs by the closing stock price on the date of grant. Please refer to the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” for a description of the PRSU program, eligibility and payment criteria. The amounts shown under “Threshold” represent estimated payment of 50% of the PRSUs granted, with downward relative TSR performance modification of 20%, our estimate of the minimum amount payable if the threshold performance level is met for all performance measures. The amounts shown under “Target” represent estimated payment of 100% of the PRSUs granted. The amounts shown under “Maximum” represent estimated payment of 200% of the PRSUs granted, with upward relative TSR performance modification of 20%, our estimate of the maximum amount payable. For all listed officers, the stock price used for calculation of the grant date fair value of the PRSUs was $103.90, which was the closing stock price on the date the awards were granted. |
| (4) |
Eligible named executive officers received a grant of stock options under our LTIP in 2024. Options were issued with an exercise price equal to the fair market value on the date of grant. The stock option exercise price is set at the average of the high and low price on the date of grant. The number of option shares to be granted to an LTIP participant is determined by dividing the award value associated with stock options by the Black-Scholes value of the option. The options granted under our 2024 LTIP vest in three equal annual installments and may be exercised for seven years from the date of grant. Please refer to the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this proxy statement for a description of 2024 stock option grants and our equity practices. |

The amounts shown under “Threshold” represent payment of 50% of the target ICP for the fiscal year performance period, our estimate of the minimum amount payable, assuming threshold level performance is achieved for all performance measures. The amounts shown under “Target” represent estimated payment of 100% of the target bonus for the performance period. The amounts shown under “Maximum” represent estimated payment of 200% of the target bonus for the performance period, our estimate of the maximum amount payable. The actual Global ICP payments for the 2024 performance period have been made.

The amounts in this column include the amounts reported under “Registrant Contributions in Last Fiscal Year”, which are also reported under “All Other Compensation” in the Summary Compensation Table of this proxy statement. Amounts in this column do not include above-market or preferential earnings. |
Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan
Revvity established the Revvity, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan, amended and restated in 2008, to provide our non-employee directors and a select group of management and highly compensated employees, including named executive officers, the opportunity to defer receipt of certain compensation in order to build savings. This plan is unfunded for tax purposes and for purposes of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, and as such, is subject to the claims of general creditors in the event of Revvity’s insolvency.
In December 2010, the committee amended the plan to cease participant deferral elections for plan years beginning January 1, 2011 or later. The plan remained active for the administration and management of prior deferrals and current account balances, and in 2022 was also amended to provide for the merger of the BioLegend deferred compensation plan into the plan and include participation for legacy BioLegend employees. In 2024, the plan was further amended to reopen the plan for new elective deferrals by a select group of management, including each of our named executive officers beginning January 1, 2025. Company contributions of 401(k) Excess benefits will continue to be made to this plan for eligible participants in those benefits. More information about 401(k) Excess benefits is provided under “Benefits—Qualified 401(k) Plan and 401(k) Excess Benefit” in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this proxy statement.
Prior to the cessation of deferral elections in 2011, non-employee directors could elect to defer up to 100% of their cash retainer and up to 100% of their annual stock grant. Until April 1, 2008 when the provision was eliminated, eligible participants could also defer up to 100% of restricted stock grants.
An account is maintained for each participant reflecting deferrals, any 401(k) Excess company contributions, and increases or decreases in account value based on investment performance. The plan offers a selection of notional fund investments similar to those available under the Revvity, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan. Investment options for deferral elections made prior to 2011 also include Revvity common stock. Beginning January 1, 2025, no participant who has not already elected to participate in the company stock fund will be eligible to elect the company stock fund as an investment option or
| 58 | Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement |
Table of Contents
to otherwise participate in the company stock fund. The participant directs the investment of their cash deferrals. Deferrals of Revvity stock awards and any cash deferrals invested in Revvity stock must remain in the form of Revvity stock while in the plan. Participants may change their mutual fund investment options or transfer cash deferrals among the mutual funds at any time. Any earnings in this plan are market-based, and earnings are not guaranteed. Interest rates and earnings depend on investment choices directed by the participant.
Eligible participants have made deferral elections, distribution elections, and any changes to distribution elections in accordance with limitations set forth in the plan and tax rules applicable to non-qualified deferred compensation. Distributions are made in a lump sum at retirement unless the participant chooses one of the following distribution elections: (a) lump sum in a future year at least one year later than the year of deferral, (b) a specified number of annual installments to begin at least one year later than the year of deferral, or (c) a specified number of annual installments to begin at retirement. The participant may also elect to receive a lump sum distribution in the event of a change in control, as described in the plan. Participants who terminate employment for reasons other than retirement receive a lump sum distribution after termination. While elections to receive distributions following a change in control and termination are allowed by the plan, these distributions do not represent accelerated vesting or change the form or amount of benefit, therefore these distributions are not reflected in the “Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control” tables presented in this proxy statement. In the case of severe and unforeseen financial emergency, and subject to approval by our compensation and benefits committee of the board of directors, the participant may make an emergency withdrawal limited to the amount necessary to meet the emergency need.
In December 2008, the Plan was amended to bring it into documentary compliance with Section 409A. The Plan has operated in compliance with Section 409A since January 1, 2009.

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control
Under the employment agreements and equity award agreements we have with our named executive officers, each is entitled to certain compensation in the event of a change in control of Revvity or the termination of their employment. Different terms apply if the termination occurs after a change in control of Revvity (as defined in the agreements and as described below). The tables that follow reflect the amount of compensation due to our named executive officers in these different situations. The amounts shown assume that such termination or change in control event was effective as of December 29, 2024 and are only estimates of the amounts payable. The actual amounts to be paid out in any of the situations listed below can only be determined at the time of such executive’s separation from Revvity.
Change in Control
Dr. Singh and Messrs. Krakowiak, Goldberg, and Vohra and Ms. Victor are entitled to certain compensation if there is a change in control of Revvity. “Change in control” as defined in the agreements includes in general terms:
| • |
a merger, consolidation or reorganization or sale of substantially all of the assets of Revvity, unless immediately after the transaction (a) all of the shareholders before the transaction hold at least 50% of the shares and combined voting power of the resulting entity and (b) no person or entity owns 20% or more of the outstanding shares entitled to vote of the new entity (except to the extent such ownership existed before the transaction); |
| • |
an acquisition of shares of our common stock that results in a person or entity owning 20% or more of our outstanding common stock or combined voting power (excluding acquisitions by us and other limited exceptions); |
| • |
the election of a majority of directors not nominated or elected by our board; and |
| • |
the approval of our stockholders of a complete liquidation or dissolution of Revvity. |
The employment and award agreements of Dr. Singh and Messrs. Krakowiak, Goldberg and Vohra and Ms. Victor provide for the following in the event of a change in control of Revvity:
| • |
continued employment of the executive in a management position for three years from the date of the change in control without (with limited exceptions) decreasing the executive’s salary and benefits for that period, and the agreement of the executive not to resign, except for good reason (as defined in their agreement), during the year following the change in control; and |
| • |
extension of the exercise period for all vested option awards until the later of (a) the third anniversary of the change in control or (b) the one-year anniversary of the termination of their employment (but not in any event beyond the original term of the option). |
Mr. Goldberg’s employment agreement, which was executed before we changed our practice in 2010, also provides for the full vesting of all outstanding restricted stock, option awards, or similar equity awards in the event of a change in control.
Following an evaluation of market practices, the committee determined on February 25, 2010 that future employment agreements issued to newly promoted or newly hired officers will provide 100% equity vesting in association with a change in control only if the officer’s employment is terminated within a specified period of time following the change in control. Consistent with this decision, the employment agreements entered into between Revvity and Dr. Singh and Messrs. Krakowiak and Vohra and Ms. Victor provide 100% equity vesting only if their employment is terminated within a specified period of time following a change in control.
| 60 | Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement |
Table of Contents
Termination after a Change in Control
If the executive’s employment is terminated within 36 months after a change in control other than for cause (as defined in the agreement), or by the executive for good reason (as defined in the agreement), the executive is entitled to receive:
| • |
A lump sum payment on the date of termination equal to the sum of: |
| • |
the executive’s unpaid base salary through the date of termination; |
| • |
a pro rata portion of their prior year’s bonus; and |
| • |
the executive’s full salary (as the term is described in their agreement, meaning generally the base salary plus previous year’s bonus) multiplied by three for Dr. Singh, and multiplied by two for Messrs. Krakowiak, Goldberg, and Vohra and Ms. Victor. Payments will be made in accordance with tax rules applicable to non-qualified deferred compensation as described in the agreements. |
| • |
Continued participation in all employee benefit plans and arrangements for 24 months for Mr. Goldberg following the termination of employment on the same terms as in effect immediately prior to the termination of employment. Dr. Singh is entitled to receive a lump sum payment equivalent to 24 months of Company-paid premiums for certain health and welfare plans. Messrs. Krakowiak and Vohra and Ms. Victor are entitled to receive 12 months of Company-paid premiums for certain health and welfare plans. |
All payments listed above are determined without adjustments for excise tax that may be due under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, which we refer to as Section 280G. Under his employment agreement, which was executed before we changed our practice in 2010, Mr. Goldberg is eligible to receive one or more “gross-up payments” (as defined in the agreement) from us to ensure that after we make these termination or change in control payments, the executive is in the same economic position as if the payment were not subject to an excise tax. The payments would be equal to the sum of (a) the excise tax on any “parachute payments” (as defined in Section 280G) and (b) the amount of additional tax imposed on or borne by the executive attributable to the receipt of the gross-up payment. We will pay for the expense of determining the amount of these payments.
On July 30, 2010, the committee determined that future employment agreements issued to newly promoted or newly hired officers will not include gross-up payments for excise taxes due under Section 280G. Consistent with that decision, the employment agreements entered into between Revvity and Dr. Singh and Messrs. Krakowiak and Vohra and Ms. Victor do not provide payment of excise tax on any “parachute payments” (as defined in Section 280G). Our agreements with Dr. Singh and Messrs. Krakowiak and Vohra and Ms. Victor include a “best of” approach whereby the officer would receive the greater of (a) after tax payments reflecting any excise taxes or (b) after tax payments reduced to the safe harbor threshold.
Termination without Cause
If we terminate the employment of Dr. Singh without cause (as defined in his employment agreement) other than after a change in control, he is entitled to receive the compensation listed below for two years after the termination date. If we terminate the employment of any of Messrs. Krakowiak, Goldberg and Vohra and Ms. Victor without cause (as defined in these employment agreements) other than after a change in control, the executive is entitled to receive the compensation listed below, for one year after the termination date:
| • |
full salary (as the term is described in the individual’s agreement, meaning generally base salary and an amount equal to the individual’s previous year’s bonus); |
| • |
Mr. Goldberg is entitled to continued participation in all employee benefit plans and arrangements on the same terms as in effect immediately prior to the termination of employment; Dr. Singh is entitled to receive a lump sum payment equivalent to 24 months of |
| Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement | 61 |
Table of Contents
|
company-paid premiums for certain health and welfare plans; and Messrs. Krakowiak and Vohra and Ms. Victor are entitled to receive a lump sum payment equivalent to 12 months of company-paid premiums for certain health and welfare plans; and |
Our agreements with our named executive officers provide that each execute a severance agreement and release before we begin severance payments. Any severance benefits paid pursuant to the signing of a release agreement would commence payment on the 60 th day following termination of employment.
Disability
If any of Dr. Singh and Messrs. Krakowiak, Goldberg and Vohra or Ms. Victor is determined to be “disabled” (as defined in their employment agreement) for 180 continuous days, our board of directors may terminate their employment twelve months after providing written notice. In this situation, the executive is entitled to the following:
| • |
During the first 180 days of continuous disability, payments equal to the difference between the executive’s salary and our short-term disability income plan; |
| • |
During the twelve months after 180 days of continuous disability, payments equal to the difference between the executive’s salary and payments under our long-term disability plan. |
The executive’s employment will terminate and payments (other than those to which the executive may be entitled to receive under the long-term disability plan) will cease twelve months following the written notice of termination. In accordance with the terms of our stock option, restricted stock and PRSU agreements, 100% of the executive’s stock options, restricted stock and PRSUs will vest upon death or termination due to total disability. The executive, or their estate, will have until the earlier of the option expiration date, or one year following the date of termination, to exercise the options.
If any of Dr. Singh and Messrs. Krakowiak, Goldberg and Vohra or Ms. Victor is (1) terminated for cause (as defined in their employment agreement), (2) submits a resignation that we accept or (3) dies, Revvity will pay their full salary through the date of termination, after which obligations for payment cease.
Other Programs
Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan
While elections to receive distributions following a change in control and termination are allowed by our Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, these distributions do not represent accelerated vesting or change the form or amount of benefit, and therefore, these potential distributions are not reflected in the “Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control” tables presented below.

As provided in Dr. Singh’s employment agreement, during the first 180 days of continuous disability, the Company will make periodic payments to Dr. Singh equal to the difference between his base salary and the benefits provided by the Company’s Short Term Disability Income Plan, or STD Plan. The STD Plan provides for 66 2/3% of weekly gross salary, up to a maximum of $2,500 per week. |
| (2) |
As provided in Dr. Singh’s employment agreement, during the twelve-month notice period following the first 180 days of continuous disability, the Company will make periodic payments to Dr. Singh equal to the difference between his base salary and the benefits provided by the Company’s Long Term Disability Income Plan, or LTD Plan. The LTD Plan provides for 60% of monthly gross salary, up to a maximum of $15,000 per month. |
| (3) |
As provided in Dr. Singh’s employment agreement, upon a change in control and termination without Cause or for Good Reason as defined in the agreement, within 36 months after the change in control, all outstanding option awards will fully vest and remain exercisable through the period ending on the earlier of (a) the later of (i) the third anniversary of the change in control date or (ii) the first anniversary of Dr. Singh’s termination date or (b) the expiration date of the original term of the option award. Based on the reasonable assumption that all options would be cashed out upon change in control, the Company believes that this provision which extends the option term would not have value in the event of a change in control. This is based on our assumption that in a change in control scenario, a Revvity, Inc. stock option would cease to exist after the change in control event, because Revvity, Inc. common stock would be unlikely to exist after the event. Instead, the most likely scenario is that the vested options would be exercised, and in |

|
exchange for his shares, the executive would receive whatever form of compensation is provided to all Revvity, Inc. shareholders under the terms of the deal (“cash out”). |
| (4) |
The 2022 and 2023 restricted stock and performance restricted stock unit agreements and 2024 performance restricted stock unit agreement entered into between Revvity, Inc. and Dr. Singh provide that in the event that Dr. Singh retires (after having attained age 55 and completed 10 years of continuous service with Revvity, Inc. and upon the compensation and benefits committee of the Board determining that his retirement constitutes a qualified retirement), on or before the date in which Dr. Singh would have become fully vested in his awards, Dr. Singh’s unvested restricted stock and performance restricted units will vest upon such retirement, with the percentage of shares or units vesting to equal 2.78% times the completed months of employment during the period beginning on the grant date of the applicable award and ending on the date of Dr. Singh’s retirement. Based on Dr. Singh’s age and tenure he would not have been eligible for this benefit upon a retirement on December 29, 2024. |
| (5) |
The employment agreement entered into between Revvity, Inc. and Dr. Singh does not provide payment of excise tax or associated gross-up on any “parachute payments” (as defined in Section 280G). Dr. Singh’s employment agreement includes a “best of” approach whereby he would receive the greater of (a) after tax payments reflecting any excise taxes or (b) after tax payments reduced to the safe harbor threshold.

Notes:
| (1) |
As provided in Mr. Goldberg’s employment agreement, during the first 180 days of continuous disability, the Company will make periodic payments to Mr. Goldberg equal to the difference between his base salary and the benefits provided by the STD Plan. The STD Plan provides for 66 2/3% of weekly gross salary, up to a maximum of $2,500 per week. |
| (2) |
As provided in Mr. Goldberg’s employment agreement, during the twelve-month notice period following the first 180 days of continuous disability, the Company will make periodic payments to Mr. Goldberg equal to the difference between his base salary and the benefits provided by the LTD Plan. The LTD Plan provides for 60% of monthly gross salary, up to a maximum of $15,000 per month. |
| (3) |
As provided in Mr. Goldberg’s employment agreement, upon a change in control, all outstanding option awards will fully vest and remain exercisable through the period ending on the earlier of (a) the later of (i) the third anniversary of the change in control date or (ii) the first anniversary of Mr. Goldberg’s termination date or (b) the expiration date of the original term of the option award. Based on the reasonable assumption that all options would be cashed out upon change in control, the Company believes that this provision which extends the option term would not have value in the event of a change in control. This is based on our assumption that in a change in control scenario, a Revvity, Inc. stock option would cease to exist after the change in control event because Revvity, Inc. common stock would be unlikely to exist after the event. Instead, the most likely scenario is that the vested options would be exercised and in exchange for his shares the |

|
executive would receive whatever form of compensation is provided to all Revvity, Inc. shareholders under the terms of the deal (“cash out”). |
| (4) |
The 2022 and 2023 restricted stock and performance restricted stock unit agreements and 2024 performance restricted stock unit agreement entered into between Revvity, Inc. and Mr. Goldberg provide that in the event that Mr. Goldberg retires (after having attained age 55 and completed 10 years of continuous service with Revvity, Inc. and upon the compensation and benefits committee of the Board determining that his retirement constitutes a qualified retirement), on or before the date in which Mr. Goldberg would have become fully vested in his awards, Mr. Goldberg’s unvested restricted stock and performance restricted units will vest upon such retirement, with the percentage of shares or units vesting to equal 2.78% times the completed months of employment during the period beginning on the grant date of the applicable award and ending on the date of Mr. Goldberg’s retirement. Based on Mr. Goldberg’s age and tenure he would not have been eligible for this benefit upon a retirement on December 29, 2024. |
The following table shows the potential payments upon termination or a change of control of Revvity as of December 29, 2024, the last day of the 2024 fiscal year, for Miriame Victor, our Senior Vice President, Chief Commercial Officer.

As provided in Ms. Victor’s employment agreement, upon a change in control and termination without Cause or for Good Reason as defined in the agreement, within 36 months after the change in control, all outstanding restricted stock or option awards will fully vest and remain exercisable through the period ending on the earlier of (a) the later of (i) the third anniversary of the change in control date or (ii) the first anniversary of Ms. Victor’s termination date or (b) the expiration date of the original term of the option award.

The employment agreement entered into between Revvity, Inc. and Ms. Victor does not provide payment of excise tax or associated gross-up on any “parachute payments” (as defined in Section 280G). Ms. Victor’s employment agreement includes a “best of” approach whereby she would receive the greater of (a) after tax payments reflecting any excise taxes or (b) after tax payments reduced to the safe harbor threshold. The values shown in this table do not reflect any reduction in payments. |

CEO Pay Ratio
Pursuant to applicable SEC rules, presented below is the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the median of the annual total compensation of our employees (excluding our CEO). The ratio presented below is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u).
In identifying our median employee, we calculated the annual base pay of each employee for the twelve-month period that ended on December 31, 2024. Base salary, including overtime pay, was calculated using internal payroll and records.
We selected the median employee from a group of 10,564 full-time, part-time, temporary and seasonal workers who were employed as of September 30, 2024. We selected the business day closest to the beginning of the three-month period before the end of Revvity’s fiscal year to compile the required employee information. This number excludes all employees located in Brazil (117 employees), Estonia (6 employees), Indonesia (1 employee), Italy (95 employees), Malaysia (4 employees), Mexico (77 employees), the Philippines (17 employees), Portugal (12 employees), South Africa (10 employees), South Korea (25 employees), Taiwan (67 employees), Thailand (15 employees), Turkey (59 employees) and Vietnam (1 employee). These 506 employees constituted 4.57% of our total employee population of 11,070 and therefore were excluded pursuant to the de minimis exemption provided under Item 402(u). We did not include independent contractors or leased workers in our employee population for purposes of making our determination.
As disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table appearing on page 51, the 2024 annual total compensation as determined under Item 402 of Regulation S-K for our CEO was $11,926,615. The 2024 annual total compensation as determined under Item 402 of Regulation S-K for our median employee was $53,846. Based on the foregoing, our estimate of the ratio of our CEO’s annual total compensation to our median employee’s annual total compensation for fiscal year 2024 is 221 to 1. Given the different methodologies that various public companies will use to determine an estimate of their pay ratios, the estimated ratio reported above should not be used as a basis for comparison between companies.

PROPOSAL NO. 2 RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
|
On January 23, 2025, our audit committee selected the firm of Deloitte Touche LLP to act as our independent registered public accounting firm and to audit the books of Revvity and its subsidiaries for the 2025 fiscal year, which ends on December 28, 2025. Deloitte Touche LLP is currently performing these duties and has done so continuously since we retained their services on June 20, 2002. Although shareholder approval of the selection of Deloitte Touche LLP is not required by law or NYSE rules, our audit committee believes it is advisable and has decided to give our shareholders the opportunity to ratify this selection. If this proposal is not approved by our shareholders at the meeting, our audit committee will reconsider its selection of Deloitte Touche LLP.
We expect representatives of Deloitte Touche LLP to be in attendance at the virtual annual meeting of shareholders. The representatives will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders.
OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE RATIFICATION OF
THE SELECTION OF DELOITTE TOUCHE LLP TO SERVE AS OUR
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR.

PROPOSAL NO. 3 NON-BINDING ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
|
Our board of directors is providing shareholders with an advisory vote on executive compensation as required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act. This is a non-binding vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, and the tabular disclosure of executive compensation and accompanying narrative, provided in this proxy statement. Our board is asking shareholders to approve a non-binding advisory vote on the following resolution:
“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the compensation discussion and analysis, the compensation tables and any related material disclosed in this proxy statement, is hereby APPROVED.”
While the vote on executive compensation is non-binding and solely advisory in nature, our board of directors and our compensation and benefits committee will review the voting results and seek to determine the causes of any significant negative voting result to better understand the perspective and concerns of our shareholders.
Our executive compensation programs are designed to deliver competitive total compensation linked to the achievement of performance objectives and to attract, motivate and retain leaders who will drive the creation of shareholder value. The compensation and benefits committee continually reviews our executive compensation programs to ensure that the programs achieve the desired goals. Shareholders are invited to consider the following evidence of the effectiveness and integrity of our executive compensation programs as presented in the Executive Compensation section of this proxy statement:
| • |
In accordance with our pay-for-performance compensation philosophy, our named executive officers have a significant portion of their compensation at risk through short- and long-term incentive programs. Not including the cost of benefits, in 2024, our Chief Executive Officer had 89% of his target compensation at risk, and on average, our other named executive officers had 80% of their target compensation at risk (that is, subject to either performance requirements and/or service requirements). |
| • |
Our short- and long-term incentive plan payments in 2024 were in alignment with fiscal year 2024 financial performance. We believe sustained performance against the combination of revenue and profitability financial goals represented in our executive incentive plans, as well as continued execution against our strategic goals, will create value for our shareholders over the long term. |
| • |
We have a demonstrated history of monitoring executive compensation market practices and implementing program changes when deemed appropriate, as evidenced by the elimination during fiscal year 2010 of single-trigger vesting and Section 280G excise tax gross-ups in employment agreements with newly hired and newly promoted executive officers. |
| • |
We proactively solicit input on our executive compensation practices from our largest investors, and in response to shareholder voting on the frequency of advisory say-on-pay voting, we have adopted annual frequency. |
We encourage shareholders to review the information provided in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, and associated tables and narrative description, in this proxy statement. We believe that this information demonstrates that our executive compensation program is designed appropriately and provides effective incentives for long-term value creation.
OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL,
ON AN ADVISORY BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

PROPOSAL NO. 4 AMENDMENTS TO RESTATED ARTICLES OF ORGANIZATION, AS AMENDED, AND AMENDED AND RESTATED BY-LAWS TO IMPLEMENT A MAJORITY VOTING STANDARD FOR SPECIFIED CORPORATE ACTIONS
|
Overview
We are requesting that our shareholders approve amendments to our (i) Restated Articles of Organization, as amended (our “Articles of Organization”), and (ii) Amended and Restated By-laws (our “By-laws”) that would implement a majority voting standard, rather than a supermajority voting standard, for specified corporate actions.
Chapter 156D of the Massachusetts General Laws (the “Massachusetts Business Corporations Act”) currently provides that the default voting requirement for shareholder approval of certain corporate actions is the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of common stock of a corporation. However, the Massachusetts Business Corporations Act permits corporations to modify the default voting requirements through an amendment to their articles of organization. The proposed amendment to our Articles of Organization would implement a majority voting requirement for all corporate actions to which the two-thirds default voting requirement would otherwise apply under the Massachusetts Business Corporations Act.
In addition, our Articles of Organization and By-laws each currently require the vote of at least two-thirds of the stock of the corporation outstanding and entitled to vote on the matter to approve (1) a merger or consolidation plan, (2) director removal and (3) amendment by our shareholders of our By-laws. Our By-laws also currently require the vote of two-thirds of each class of our stock outstanding and entitled to vote on the question, voting separately, to approve a merger or consolidation plan. The proposed amendments would replace each of these supermajority voting requirements with a requirement that such matters be approved by a majority of shares outstanding and entitled to vote.
The full text of the proposed amendments to our Articles of Organization and our By-laws, which would become effective upon shareholder approval of this proposal and filing of Articles of Amendment to our Articles of Organization with The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, are attached to this proxy statement as Appendix B and Appendix C, respectively, with additions of text indicated by underlining and deletions of text indicated by strike-outs. The summary of the proposed amendments contained in this Proposal No. 4 is qualified by the full text of the proposed amendments.
Reasons for the Proposed Amendments
Our board of directors recognizes that many shareholders believe that a majority voting requirement provides shareholders with a greater voice in expressing their views.
At our 2024 annual meeting of shareholders, our shareholders approved a non-binding shareholder proposal requesting that we take each necessary step so that each voting requirement in our charter and bylaws (that is explicit or implicit due to default to state law) that calls for a greater than simple majority vote be replaced by a requirement for a majority of the votes cast for and against applicable proposals, or a simple majority in compliance with applicable laws. After our 2024 annual meeting of shareholders, we continued our engagement with our shareholders and monitored corporate governance trends. In January 2025, our board of directors approved, subject to shareholder approval, the proposed amendments to each of our Articles of Organization and By-laws to eliminate
| Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement | 79 |
Table of Contents
the supermajority vote requirements and replace them with a requirement that such matters be approved by a majority of shares outstanding and entitled to vote.
Our board of directors believes that amending these voting requirements is in the best interest of the shareholders, and approval of this proposal by our shareholders will change these voting requirements from supermajority voting requirements to requirements that such matters be approved by a majority of shares outstanding and entitled to vote.
Effect of the Proposed Amendment
If this proposal is approved, upon filing of Articles of Amendment to our Articles of Organization with The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the affirmative vote of a majority of shares outstanding and entitled to vote on the following matters will be required to approve the following corporate actions:
| • |
amending our Articles of Organization; |
| • |
amending our By-laws by shareholder action; |
| • |
selling all or substantially all of our property other than in the usual and regular course of business; |
| • |
approving a plan of merger or share exchange; |
| • |
approving a plan of domestication to a foreign jurisdiction; |
| • |
approving a plan of entity conversion to a domestic or foreign entity; |
| • |
authorizing voluntary dissolution; and |
| • |
removing a director with or without cause by shareholder action. |
Vote Required
The affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of the shares of our common stock outstanding on the record date of the 2025 annual meeting is required to approve this proposal. As a result, abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as votes against this proposal.
OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” APPROVAL OF THE
AMENDMENTS OF OUR ARTICLES OF ORGANIZATION AND OUR BY-LAWS TO IMPLEMENT A
MAJORITY VOTING STANDARD FOR SPECIFIED CORPORATE ACTIONS.

PROPOSAL NO. 5 SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL REGARDING ABILITY TO CALL SPECIAL SHAREHOLDER MEETING
|
Mr. John Chevedden, 2215 Nelson Avenue, No. 205, Redondo Beach, California 90278, the owner of at least 40 shares of our common stock, has advised us that he plans to introduce the following resolution at the annual meeting of shareholders. In accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, the text of Mr. Chevedden’s resolution and supporting statement is printed verbatim from its submission. All statements contained in the shareholder proposal and the supporting statement are the sole responsibility of the proponent.
SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL REGARDING ABILITY TO CALL SPECIAL SHAREHOLDER MEETING
Proposal 5 – Support Improved Shareholder Ability to Call for a Special Shareholder Meeting
Shareholders ask our Board of Directors to take the steps necessary to amend the appropriate company governing documents to give the owners of a combined 10% of our outstanding common stock the power to call a special shareholder meeting or the owners of the lowest percentage of shareholders, as governed by state law, the power to call a special shareholder meeting.
Our bylaws now only provide that an unreasonably high 40% or more of the total shares outstanding can call a special shareholder meeting. Thus it can take more shares to call a special shareholder meeting than it takes to approve an item at a special shareholder meeting since not all shares vote at a special shareholder meeting.
To guard against the Board of Directors becoming complacent shareholders need a reasonable ability to call a special shareholder meeting to help the Board adopt new strategies.
This proposal topic is now more important than ever because there has been a mad rush of Board exculpation proposals to limit the financial liability of directors when they violate their fiduciary duty.
With the widespread use of online shareholder meetings it is much easier for a company to conduct a special shareholder meeting for important issues and Revvity bylaws need to be updated accordingly.
Please vote yes:
Support Improved Shareholder Ability to Call for a
Special Shareholder Meeting – Proposal 5
YOUR COMPANY’S RESPONSE TO SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL
The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote AGAINST this proposal.
The Board of Directors (the “board”) believes that this proposal is not in the best interests of the Company or our shareholders as the lower ownership threshold may harm minority shareholders and promote waste of Company resources to hold special meetings on issues that do not have the support of a vast majority of shareholders. Additionally, the board believes the proposal is unnecessary given that the current ownership threshold in our By-laws appropriately balances the interests of all shareholders. Accordingly, the board recommends that shareholders vote against this proposal.
| Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement | 81 |
Table of Contents
The Current Ownership Threshold Appropriately Balances the Interests of All Shareholders and Protects Minority Shareholders.
Our board recognizes the importance of having strong corporate governance practices in place to ensure that the Company is responsive to shareholder concerns. Our board further believes that shareholders should have a meaningful right to call special meetings in appropriate circumstances. As such, the Company’s current By-laws allow shareholders who own 40% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock to call a special meeting. The By-laws allow shareholders to raise important matters with the Company and demonstrate our commitment to effective corporate governance. Importantly, a 40% ownership threshold provides a level of assurance that a reasonable number of shareholders consider a matter important enough to warrant a special meeting. Reducing the ownership threshold to 10%, as proposed, could cause the Company to spend significant resources on special meetings even if holders of up to 90% of the Company’s shares do not believe that the issue warrants a special meeting.
If the shareholder proposal were adopted, a small minority of large shareholders, or just one large shareholder, could require the Company to devote outsized attention and resources to their special interests, at the expense of the Company’s smaller shareholders. As shown in the “Beneficial Ownership of Common Stock” table beginning on page 26, five of our shareholders separately own 5% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock and two of those shareholders separately own 10% or more. Lowering the ownership threshold required to call a special shareholder meeting to 10% would provide these shareholders, either acting together or alone, the opportunity to call a shareholder meeting. The board believes such a low ownership threshold creates the risk that a very small number of shareholders may use this procedure to act unilaterally or to advance their own interests at the expense of other shareholders. Maintaining our current ownership threshold protects our smaller shareholders from the potentially narrow, short-term interests of a 10% shareholder, or a few shareholders totaling 10%.
Special Meetings Require Substantial Company Resources and Time.
Preparing for, and holding, a special meeting requires a significant amount of time and resources regardless of whether the meeting is held online or in person. In connection with conducting a special meeting, the Company must pay to prepare, print, and distribute disclosure documents to shareholders, solicit proxies, hold the meeting, tabulate votes, and for an online meeting, engage a service provider to host the meeting. Moreover, holding a special meeting demands significant attention from the board and senior management and disrupts normal business operations. Our existing ownership threshold for calling special meetings helps avoid waste of the Company’s and shareholder resources to address narrow or special interests.
The Board of Directors Has Demonstrated a Strong Commitment to Corporate Governance Best Practices.
The board is committed to good corporate governance practices and believes that this proposal should be evaluated in the context of such commitment, which is evidenced by the following practices:
| • |
Directors are elected annually by a majority of the votes cast in uncontested elections and by a plurality of the votes cast in contested elections. |
| • |
The board is composed of a substantial majority of independent directors (9 of 10 directors are independent), and only independent directors serve on the board’s committees. The board holds executive sessions of the independent directors preceding or following each regularly scheduled board meeting. |
| • |
The board has a Non-Executive Chair. The separation of the roles of Non-Executive Chair and Chief Executive Officer encourages a greater role for the independent directors in the oversight of the Company and in their representation of shareholders’ interests. |
| 82 | Revvity • 2025 Proxy Statement |
Table of Contents
| • |
The board includes a range of tenures to balance fresh perspectives with in-depth experience and knowledge about the Company. |
| • |
We conduct proactive year-round engagement with shareholders, providing them the opportunity to raise important matters outside the annual meeting process. |
| • |
Our By-laws provide for proxy access, which permits shareholders, or a group of up to 20 shareholders, owning 3% or more of our outstanding shares of common stock continuously for at least three years, to nominate and include in our proxy materials nominees for director constituting up to 20% of the board or two directors, whichever is greater, subject to the requirements set forth in our By-laws. |
| • |
Our nominating and corporate governance committee regularly reviews corporate governance developments and recommends appropriate changes to our board. |
| • |
The board has recommended that shareholders approve Proposal 4 to amend the Company’s Articles of Organization and By-laws to remove supermajority voting requirements. |
Consistent with its current practice, the board will continue to consider whether changes to the Articles of Organization and By-laws are appropriate and in the best interests of the shareholders and the Company. In this case, the board believes that implementation of this proposal would adversely impact our carefully considered corporate governance practices.
For all of these reasons, the board believes the proposal is neither necessary nor in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

PROPOSAL.

OTHER MATTERS
|
Our board of directors does not know of any other business to be presented for consideration at the meeting other than that described above. However, if any other business should come before the meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the proxy to vote, or otherwise act, in accordance with their judgment on such matters.
|
DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a) REPORTS
|
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, officers and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of beneficial ownership and reports of changes in beneficial ownership. Directors, officers and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock are required by Securities and Exchange Commission regulations to furnish us with copies of all such reports. To our knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us and written representations that no other reports were required, we believe that for fiscal 2024 all required reports were filed on a timely basis under Section 16(a), except that due to administrative error, the following report was not submitted on behalf of Ms. Anita Gonzales on a timely basis: Form 4 reporting the grant of 715 restricted stock units on March 1, 2024, which was subsequently filed on March 21, 2024.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR 2026 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
|
In order to be considered for addition to the agenda for the 2026 annual meeting of shareholders, and to be included in our proxy statement and form of proxy in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, shareholder proposals should be addressed to the Secretary of Revvity, and must be received at our corporate offices at 77 4 th Avenue, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451 no later than November 12, 2025.
Shareholders who wish to nominate a director for election at the 2026 annual meeting, or who wish to present a proposal at the 2026 annual meeting, other than a proposal that will be included in our proxy materials, should send notice to Revvity by February 6, 2026, or such nomination or proposal, as the case may be, will not be timely. If our annual meeting is held earlier than April 2, 2026 or has not been held by June 21, 2026, then shareholders should send notice to us no later than the 75 th day before the annual meeting, or the seventh day after the day notice of the date of the meeting is mailed or made public, whichever occurs first. Under Massachusetts law, an item may not be brought before our shareholders at a meeting unless it appears in the notice of meeting. If a shareholder makes a timely notification and a matter is properly brought before the 2026 annual meeting, the people we name as proxies may still exercise discretionary voting authority under circumstances consistent with the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Our By-laws also permit a shareholder, or group of up to 20 shareholders, who have owned continuously for at least three years a number of our shares that constitutes at least 3% of the voting power of our outstanding shares, to nominate and include in our proxy materials for the 2026 annual meeting, director nominees constituting up to the greater of two individuals or 20% of our board of directors, provided that the shareholder(s) and the nominee(s) satisfy the requirements specified in our By-laws. In order to be timely under our By-laws, notice of such a “proxy access” nomination for the 2026 annual meeting must be received in writing by the Secretary of Revvity at our corporate

APPENDIX A

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
|
Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We report our financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). However, management believes that, in order to more fully understand our short-term and long-term financial and operational trends, investors may wish to consider the impact of certain non-cash, non-recurring or other items, which result from facts and circumstances that vary in frequency and impact on continuing operations. Accordingly, we present non-GAAP financial measures as a supplement to the financial measures we present in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures provide management with additional means to understand and evaluate the operating results and trends in our ongoing business by adjusting for certain non-cash expenses and other items that management believes might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult, obscure trends in ongoing operations, or reduce management’s ability to make useful forecasts. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional means of evaluating period-over-period operating performance. In addition, management understands that some investors and financial analysts find this information helpful in analyzing our financial and operational performance and comparing this performance to our peers and competitors.
We use the term “adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations”, “adjusted earnings per share,” “adjusted EPS,” or “adjusted EPS from continuing operations” to refer to GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations, including revenue from contracts acquired in acquisitions that will not be fully recognized due to accounting rules, and excluding amortization of intangible assets, debt extinguishment costs, other purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition and divestiture-related expenses, significant litigation matters and settlements, significant environmental charges, changes in the value of financial securities, disposition of businesses and assets, net, changes in foreign exchange and interest associated with acquisitions and divestitures, asset impairments and restructuring and other charges. We also exclude adjustments for mark-to-market accounting on post-retirement benefits, therefore only our projected costs have been used to calculate this non-GAAP measure. We also adjust for any tax impact related to the above items and exclude the impact of significant tax events.
Management includes or excludes the effect of each of the items identified below in the applicable non-GAAP financial measure referenced above for the reasons set forth below with respect to that item:
| • |
Amortization of intangible assets —purchased intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives and generally cannot be changed or influenced by management after the acquisition. Accordingly, this item is not considered by management in making operating decisions. Management does not believe such charges accurately reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the period in which such charges are incurred. |
| • |
Debt extinguishment costs —we incur costs and income related to the extinguishment of debt, including make-whole payments to debt holders, accelerated amortization of debt fees and discounts, and expense or income from hedges to lock in make-whole payments. We exclude the impact of these items from our non-GAAP measures because we believe they do not reflect the performance of our ongoing operations. |
| • |
Revenue from contracts acquired in acquisitions that will not be fully recognized due to accounting rules —accounting rules require us to account for the fair value of revenue from contracts assumed in connection with our acquisitions. As a result, our GAAP results reflect the |

|
fair value of those revenues, which is not the same as the revenue which otherwise would have been recorded by the acquired entity. We include such revenue in our non-GAAP measures because we believe the fair value of such revenue does not accurately reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the period in which such revenue is recorded. |
| • |
Other purchase accounting adjustments —accounting rules require us to adjust various balance sheet accounts, including inventory, fixed assets and deferred rent balances to fair value at the time of the acquisition. As a result, the expenses for these items in our GAAP results are not the same as what would have been recorded by the acquired entity. Accounting rules also require us to estimate the fair value of contingent consideration at the time of the acquisition, and any subsequent changes to the estimate or payment of the contingent consideration and purchase accounting adjustments are charged to expense or income. We exclude the impact of any changes to contingent consideration from our non-GAAP measures because we believe these expenses or benefits do not accurately reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the period in which such expenses or benefits are recorded. |
| • |
Acquisition and divestiture-related expenses —we incur legal, due diligence, stay bonuses, incentive awards, stock-based compensation, interest, foreign exchange gains and losses, integration expenses, rebranding expenses and other costs related to acquisitions and divestitures. We exclude these expenses from our non-GAAP measures because we believe they do not reflect the performance of our ongoing operations. |
| • |
Asset impairments —we incur expenses related to asset impairments. Management does not believe such charges accurately reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the periods in which such charges were incurred. |
| • |
Restructuring and other charges —restructuring and other charges consist of employee severance, other exit costs as well as the cost of terminating certain lease agreements or contracts as well as costs associated with relocating facilities. Management does not believe such costs accurately reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the period in which such costs are reported. |
| • |
Adjustments for mark-to-market accounting on post-retirement benefits —we exclude adjustments for mark-to-market accounting on post-retirement benefits, and therefore only our projected costs have been used to calculate our non-GAAP measures. We exclude these adjustments because they do not represent what we believe our investors consider to be costs of producing our products, investments in technology and production, and costs to support our internal operating structure. |
| • |
Significant litigation matters and settlements —we incur expenses related to significant litigation matters, including the costs to settle or resolve various claims and legal proceedings. Management does not believe such charges accurately reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the periods in which such charges were incurred. |
| • |
Significant environmental charges —we incur expenses related to significant environmental charges. Management does not believe such charges accurately reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the periods in which such charges were incurred. |
| • |
Disposition of businesses and assets, net —we exclude the impact of gains or losses from the disposition of businesses and assets from our adjusted earnings per share. Management does not believe such gains or losses accurately reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the period in which such gains or losses are reported. |
| • |
Impact of foreign currency changes on the current period —we exclude the impact of foreign currency associated with acquisitions and divestitures from these measures by using the prior period’s foreign currency exchange rates for the current period because foreign currency exchange rates are subject to volatility and can obscure underlying trends. |

Impact of significant tax events —we exclude the impact of significant tax events. Management does not believe the impact of significant tax events accurately reflects the performance of our ongoing operations for the periods in which the impact of such events was recorded. |
| • |
Changes in value of financial securities —we exclude the impact of changes in the value of financial securities. Management does not believe such gains or losses accurately reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the period in which such gains or losses are reported. |

The tax effect for discontinued operations is calculated based on the authoritative guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification 740, Income Taxes. The tax effect for amortization of intangible assets, inventory fair value adjustments related to business acquisitions, changes to the fair values assigned to contingent consideration, debt extinguishment costs, other costs related to business acquisitions and divestitures, significant litigation matters and settlements, significant environmental charges, changes in the fair value of financial securities, adjustments for mark-to-market accounting on post-retirement benefits, disposition of businesses and assets, net, asset impairments, restructuring and other charges, and the revenue from contracts acquired with various acquisitions is calculated based on operational results and applicable jurisdictional law, which contemplates tax rates currently in effect to determine our tax provision. The tax effect for the impact from foreign currency exchange rates on the current period is calculated based on the average rate currently in effect to determine our tax provision.
The non-GAAP financial measures described above are not meant to be considered superior to, or a substitute for, our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are material limitations associated with non-GAAP financial measures because they exclude charges that have an effect on our reported results and, therefore, should not be relied upon as the sole financial measures by which to evaluate our financial results. Management compensates and believes that investors should compensate for these limitations by viewing the non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this proxy statement may be different from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similar measures used by other companies.
Each of the non-GAAP financial measures listed above is also used by our management to evaluate our operating performance, communicate our financial results to our Board of Directors, benchmark our results against our historical performance and the performance of our peers, evaluate investment opportunities including acquisitions and discontinued operations, and determine the bonus payments for senior management and employees.

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO AMENDED AND RESTATED BY-LAWS
The proposed amendments to our Amended and Restated By-laws are set forth below. Text stricken through indicates deletions, and text that is underlined indicates additions.
ARTICLE I
8. Action at Meeting. When a quorum is present, the vote of a majority of the stock present or represented and voting on a matter (or if there are two or more classes of stock entitled to vote as separate classes, then in the case of each such class, the vote of a majority of the stock of that class present or represented and voting on a matter), except where a larger vote is required by law, the Articles of Organization or these By-laws, shall decide any matter to be voted on by the stockholders other than an election of directors. A nominee for director shall be elected to the Board of Directors if the votes cast for such nominee’s election exceed the votes cast against such nominee’s election; provided, however, that directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at any meeting of stockholders that is a Contested Election Meeting (as defined below). A meeting of stockholders shall be a “Contested Election Meeting” if, as of the day immediately preceding the date of the corporation’s first notice to stockholders of such meeting sent pursuant to Section 4 of Article I of these By-laws, as such date is stated in such notice, either (i) there is any person nominated for election as a director at such meeting who was not nominated for election as a director by the Board of Directors, and such nomination other than by the Board of Directors has not been withdrawn, or (ii) there are more persons nominated for election as directors at such meeting than there are directors to be elected at such meeting. No ballot shall be required for such election unless requested by a stockholder present or represented at the meeting and entitled to vote in the election. The corporation shall not directly or indirectly vote any share of its stock. Nothing in this Section shall be construed as limiting the right of this corporation to vote shares of stock held directly or indirectly by it in a fiduciary capacity. In the event that a vote of stockholders of this corporation is required to approve an agreement to consolidate this corporation with another corporation to form a new corporation, or to merge this corporation into another corporation, or to merge or consolidate another corporation into this corporation, the vote of two-thirds of each class of stock of this corporation outstanding and entitled to vote on the question, voting separately, shall be necessary for the approval of such agreement.
ARTICLE II
6. Removal. A Director may be removed from office (a) with or without cause by the affirmative a vote of a majority two-thirds of the stock outstanding and entitled to vote in the election of Directors, provided that the Directors of a class elected by a particular class of stockholders may be removed only by the affirmative vote of two-thirds a majority of the shares of such class which are outstanding and entitled to vote or (b) for cause by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Directors then in office. A Director may be removed for cause only after reasonable notice and opportunity to be heard before the body proposing to remove them him .
ARTICLE V
10. Amendments. The stockholders may by the affirmative a vote of a majority two-thirds of the stock of the corporation, outstanding and entitled to vote, make, amend or repeal the By-laws of the corporation in whole or in part at any meeting of the stockholders provided that notice of the substance of the proposed action is stated in the notice of meeting. The Directors may make, amend or repeal the By-laws of the corporation in whole or in part at any meeting of the Directors by vote of a majority of the Directors then in office, except that the provisions thereof fixing the place of the meetings of stockholders, fixing the date of the annual meeting of stockholders, designating the number necessary to constitute a quorum at meetings of the stockholders, governing procedure with respect to the removal of Directors, affording indemnification to Directors or officers and governing amendment of these By-laws, may be made, amended, or repealed only by the stockholders. No change in the date of the annual meeting may be made within sixty days before the date fixed in these By-laws, and in case of any change of such date, notice thereof shall be given to each stockholder in person or by letter mailed to their his last known post office address at least twenty days before the new date fixed for such meeting.
