- Alignment: Director pay mix emphasizes equity via annual RSUs (increasing to $170k from Dec 1, 2025) and a 5x cash retainer ownership requirement, reinforcing long‑term alignment with shareholders .
- Engagement: FY2025 attendance standards met (≥75% for all directors); board met 14 times with all then‑current directors attending the annual meeting .
- Conflicts/Related‑party: Company has formal related‑party review; no Item 404 related‑party transactions reported in FY2025; Rahman’s other public directorships (TreeHouse Foods; prior Berry) disclosed .
- RED FLAGS: None evident in proxy for Rahman (no Section 16(a) reporting delinquencies cited for her; no pledging allowed; no related‑party transactions disclosed) .
Additional context: Say‑on‑pay and shareholder engagement processes are described (board recommends “FOR” 2025 say‑on‑pay), and Compensation Committee uses independent consultants (FW Cook; Willis Towers Watson), reinforcing governance rigor, though these relate primarily to executive pay oversight .
