Governance Assessment

  • Strengths: Independent director; chairs CGNS Committee overseeing board effectiveness, succession, and related-person transactions; robust director ownership guidelines (5x retainer) and time-based equity grants; all directors at least 75% attendance in 2024; active service on Risk and Strategy committees with defined oversight scopes .
  • Compensation alignment: Director pay mix is simple and transparent—cash retainer plus annual RSUs (~$150k), with chair fees; no options granted to directors in 2024; DSU program encourages long-term ownership .
  • Oversight quality: CGNS Committee chaired by Myers met 3 times in 2024; Compensation & Human Capital Committee met 5; Audit met 7; Risk met 4; Strategy met 5, indicating active committee oversight cadence .
  • Red flags: No pledging/hedging disclosures for Myers identified; no Myers-related party transactions disclosed. The proxy includes a prohibition on hedging by directors section, and related-person transactions oversight is explicit under CGNS, which mitigates conflict risk .
