External Roles
No public company directorships or external roles for Geer are disclosed in the 2025 or 2024 proxy statements.
Equity Ownership & Alignment
- Insider trading policy prohibits hedging, short sales, pledging, and margin accounts for employees, officers, and directors; officers/directors may use Rule 10b5-1 trading plans (CEO and President disclosed plans in fiscal 2024) .
- Executive stock ownership guidelines require holding a multiple of salary; until satisfied, executives must retain 75% of net shares from equity awards; PSUs excluded from guideline compliance calculation .
- Directors and executive officers as a group (13 people) beneficially owned 202,714 shares as of March 1, 2025; each individual listed was under 1% of shares outstanding (33,118,365 shares) .
Employment Terms
- Restrictive covenants: executives are subject to confidentiality, non-solicit, and non-compete restrictions during employment and for 18 months post-termination (two years for CEO). Non-compete scope extends to network marketing of life/auto/property insurance, mutual funds, variable annuities, or similar securities in the U.S., Canada, and territories where Primerica operates .
- Clawbacks: Incentive Compensation Recovery Policy adopted in 2023 (NYSE-compliant); 2020 Incentive Plan authorizes clawback/forfeiture of cash/equity if awards were granted/vested/paid based on performance criteria later invalidated due to fraud/misconduct, restatement, or significant non-ordinary write-offs; Board may adopt broader recoupment policies .
- Insider trading and pre-set plans: policy bars hedging/pledging; Rule 10b5-1 plans permitted to facilitate diversification (2024 plans disclosed for CEO and President) .
Investment Implications
- Alignment: Strong company-wide guardrails (hedging/pledging prohibitions; ownership guidelines; clawbacks) reduce misalignment and mitigate insider selling pressure, supportive of long-term orientation in governance roles like Geer’s .
- Retention and execution: The enterprise risk leadership structure (BRCC chaired by Chief Governance and Risk Officer; quarterly risk reporting) embeds Geer at the core of risk and governance execution—key for sustaining operating discipline amid growth and capital return programs .
- Trading signals: While 10b5-1 plans are allowed, the proxy only discloses such plans for the CEO and President in 2024; absence of disclosed plans for Geer, coupled with prohibitions on hedging/pledging, suggests limited forced selling risks from leverage or hedging constructs .
- Data gaps: Geer is not a named executive officer; individual compensation, equity grants, severance and change-of-control terms are not disclosed, constraining direct pay-for-performance assessment specific to her role. Broader executive program design (metrics, vesting) applies to NEOs and may not directly map to Geer .
