Investment Implications
- Pay-for-performance alignment: Ms. Davis’s cash bonus reflected under-target company performance (32% Company Factor), while her long-term incentives are heavily performance-based (PSUs) with a relative TSR modifier; the most recent PSP paid 148% (top-quartile TSR), reinforcing multi-year alignment with shareholder returns .
- Vesting and potential selling pressure: A large PSP delivery occurred in August 2025 (21,371 shares, $3.4M market value), and she holds meaningful unvested/unearned equity (e.g., 12,850 and 12,113 PSUs outstanding; 56,554 options from 2024 grant) that cliff-vest or settle over multi-year horizons—potential future supply events around vestings should be monitored .
- Retention risk: She is not retirement-eligible, and equity awards feature three-year cliff schedules and performance conditions, creating retention hooks; CIC terms rely primarily on equity acceleration (and not cash multiples), which moderates change-of-control value leakage while preserving talent incentives .
- Governance safeguards: Strong policies (clawbacks; hedging/pledging prohibitions; stock ownership guidelines) and solid shareholder support on say-on-pay reduce governance/red-flag risk; no pension accruals or tax gross-up disclosures for Ms. Davis in FY 2024-25 .
