Additional alignment and policy context:
- Director Stock Ownership Policy: must hold shares equal to 5x annual Board cash retainer; compliance required within five years of Board start (Daruvala joined 2022).
- Deferral Program: Daruvala elected to defer RSU delivery for 2024 and 2025, increasing long‑term alignment.
- Insider Trading Policy: prohibits hedging and pledging, short sales, and margining for Section 16 persons; pre‑clearance required for trades.
Governance Assessment
- Strengths: Independent director with deep risk expertise; chairs Risk Committee overseeing enterprise risk and cybersecurity; documented Board refresh and robust committee activity; strong insider trading restrictions and director ownership policy (5x cash retainer).
- Alignment: RSU equity and deferral elections suggest longer‑term alignment; dividend equivalents on RSUs treat directors consistently with stockholders.
- Attendance/Engagement: Board and committees active in 2024; minimum 75% attendance achieved by all directors; Risk Committee met 5x under Daruvala’s chair.
- Potential watch‑items (not currently red flags): Modest direct share ownership as of March 31, 2025 (3,445 rights to acquire; compliance window runs five years); monitor any future transactions involving RBC or McKinsey‑related entities—none disclosed involving Daruvala.
- Structural improvements: Ongoing proposal to declassify Board and adopt officer exculpation consistent with Delaware law; reflects responsiveness to shareholder engagement.
