- Signals for investors: Equity-oriented director pay and consistent attendance support investor confidence; Gorman’s external seat at Xperi brings industry insights, with no disclosed conflicts tied to GAME. No performance metrics tied to director pay implies standard director compensation practices rather than pay-for-performance structures .
