Executive Summary

2022 Business Highlights

Our talented team of sales, marketing, services and development professionals have continued to make progress on our strategic plan of offering hybrid distribution solutions that allow our channel partners to meet the technology demands of end-user customers. We are enabling our sales partners to accelerate their transformation to the digital world of opportunity. Our hybrid distribution strategy of devices and digital delivered strong results in fiscal year 2022 as a result of increased sales volumes and operating leverage on expenses. For fiscal year 2022, net sales increased 12% to $3.5 billion, or a 11.8% year over year increase on an organic basis. For fiscal year 2022, operating income increased to $122.2 million from $61.5 million in the prior year. Fiscal year 2022 non-GAAP operating income increased to $140.1 million for a 4.0% non-GAAP operating margin, up from $93.1 million and a 3.0% non-GAAP operating margin for the prior year. On a GAAP basis, net income for fiscal year 2022 totaled $88.7 million, or $3.44 per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income totaled $102.1 million, or $3.97 per diluted share. For more information on our non-GAAP measures and reconciliations to GAAP measures, see “Non-GAAP Financial Information” beginning on page 30 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on August 23, 2022.

Fiscal 2022 Pay Mix

The Compensation Committee strives to provide our NEOs with a compensation package that balances short-term and long-term compensation. We believe that our current executive compensation program, consisting of a mix of base salary, retirement contributions, annual performance-based cash incentive awards and both performance-based and service-based grants of equity, (i) provides a predictable and transparent structure for executive compensation, (ii) provides a significant percentage of a NEO’s compensation through variable performance-based vehicles and (iii) attracts, retains and motivates our NEOs.

Our executive compensation program emphasizes performance-based pay. The elements of compensation and the general mix of compensation among the various elements remained largely unchanged from the previous year, except, for fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee reintroduced performance-based restricted stock to replace stock options in the pay mix (a 50/50 split of time-vested restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance-based RSUs). These performance-based restricted stock awards included the following changes from the performance-based awards granted in previous years: (i) elimination of a single performance metric, as performance metrics will include non-GAAP earnings per share metric and adjusted ROIC as compared to WACC, (ii) introduce a modifier based on relative total shareholder return, (iii) provide for a three-year performance period and (iv) minimize overlapping performance conditions with our short-term incentives. In addition, for fiscal 2022 awards, the Compensation Committee determined to change the vesting period for time-based restricted stock awards from three years to four years. These changes were designed to more accurately reflect the overall health of the Company and more closely associate executive pay with Company performance.

Our financial performance during fiscal 2022 is reflected in the compensation of each of our NEOs for fiscal 2022, particularly with respect to payouts pursuant to our annual cash incentive program. Our cash incentive opportunity is designed so that, if our financial results, as measured by certain consolidated adjusted EBITDA and revenue numbers, reflect an increase in the financial performance of the Company, then our executives should realize a greater cash incentive. Awards are also capped at 200% of each executive’s target bonus regardless of our financial performance.

 

10


For fiscal year 2022, the cash incentives paid to our CEO increased from fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020 based on (i) our financial performance and (ii) the Compensation Committee’s pre-established Management Incentive Plan (“MIP”) operating targets for the cash incentive opportunity. The value of the equity awarded to our CEO decreased in fiscal 2022, primarily due to the absence of the one-time stock option grant awarded to our CEO in fiscal 2021 in light of his extraordinary efforts during our transformation and period of economic uncertainty. We believe this result is appropriately aligned with the Company’s fiscal 2022 financial performance and the Company’s long-term compensation program.

In addition, the total compensation of our CEO generally has increased or decreased during the past five fiscal years as our non-GAAP operating results have increased or decreased. We believe this correlation between the Company’s performance and pay appropriately motivates and rewards our CEO and is beneficial to our shareholders.

In addition, we believe that it is important to link each of our NEO’s compensation and personal financial interests with long-term shareholder value creation. Accordingly, 38% of our CEO’s total compensation, 44% of Mr. Eldh’s total compensation, 43% of Mr. Jones’ total compensation, and 40% of Ms. Hayden’s total compensation for fiscal 2022 was in the form of long-term equity incentives. For fiscal 2022, variable performance-based compensation in the form of cash and long-term equity incentives constituted 73% of our CEO’s total compensation, 82% of Mr. Eldh’s total compensation, 76% of Mr. Jones’ total compensation, and 69% of Ms. Hayden’s total compensation (each as reported in the Summary Compensation Table).

Greater detail regarding the compensation of our NEOs can be found within the 2022 Summary Compensation Table.

Consideration of Results of Shareholder Advisory Votes in Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee monitors the results of the “Say-on-Pay” vote and considers those results along with the objectives listed below in determining compensation policies. A substantial majority (92.6%) of our shareholders voting at the 2022 Annual Meeting approved the compensation described in our 2021 proxy statement. The Compensation Committee interpreted this vote result as a strong indication of support for our fiscal 2022 compensation program. We have conducted a variety of shareholder engagement activities this year, including investor conferences and direct meetings with many of our top shareholders. These engagements have focused on deepening the dialogue with our current shareholder base about our business strategy and performance, culture, governance, executive compensation practices, and ESG efforts. Our Lead Independent Director has participated in several of these dialogues, demonstrating accountability with our shareholders and our commitment to strong governance practices.

2021 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan

On November 12, 2021, upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, our Board unanimously adopted, and our shareholders subsequently approved, the ScanSource, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2021 Plan”). The 2021 Plan replaced the 2013 Plan, and no further awards will be granted under the 2013 Plan as of the effective date of the 2021 Plan. The terms and conditions of awards granted previously under the 2013 Plan will not be affected by the adoption and approval of the 2021 Plan.

In assessing the appropriate terms of the 2021 Plan, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considered, among other items, the existing terms of the 2013 Plan, our compensation philosophy and practices, as well as feedback from our shareholders and other stakeholders. The Board believes that awards tied to our common stock and Company performance promote the long-term success of the Company and views the 2021 Plan as an essential element of the Company’s overall compensation program.

The Board believes that the 2021 Plan:

 

   

assists the Company in attracting, retaining and motivating our employees, officers, directors and consultants;

 

11


   

provides equitable and competitive compensation opportunities;

 

   

recognizes individual contributions; and

 

   

rewards goal achievement and aligns the interests of the participants with those of our shareholders.

Objectives of the Compensation Program

Our executive compensation program is designed to attract, retain and motivate executives through achieving the following three objectives:

 

   

Pay-for-Performance

 

   

Align Interests of Executives with Shareholders

 

   

Retain Talented Leadership

Pay-for-Performance

The guiding principle of our compensation philosophy is that pay should be linked to performance and that the interests of executives and shareholders should be aligned. Our compensation program is designed to provide significant performance-based compensation through our cash incentive plan, and a large portion of the compensation is in the form of equity awards. As a result, a significant portion of our NEOs’ compensation is directly contingent on our operating results and/or aligned with shareholder interests.

Align Interests of Named Executive Officers and Shareholders

The following compensation policies and practices are designed to align the interests of our NEOs and our shareholders:

 

ScanSource Does

  Require significant stock ownership.    We have adopted minimum ownership guidelines for our CEO. He is required to retain 50% of the net shares resulting from vesting or exercises of equity awards until he owns Company common stock in an amount equal to three times his base salary.
  Mandate a claw-back policy tied to a compensation program.    We maintain a “claw-back policy,” which would allow us to recover certain incentive compensation based on financial results in the event those results were restated due at least partially to the recipient’s misconduct.
  Seek our shareholders’ input on executive compensation.    We value our shareholders’ input on our executive compensation, and we seek an annual non-binding vote on our executive compensation policies.
  Prohibit pledging of our securities by our Named Executive Officers or Board of Directors.    We have a policy that prohibits officers and directors from pledging Company securities in margin accounts or as collateral for a loan.
  Prohibit hedging of our securities by our Named Executive Officers or Board of Directors.    We have a policy that prohibits employees (including the NEOs) and directors from trading in options, warrants, puts, calls or similar instruments in connection with our securities, or selling our securities “short.”
  Require a “double trigger” for cash severance benefits upon a change in control.    Our employment arrangements with our NEOs provide cash severance only upon a “double trigger.”
  Not provide golden parachute tax gross ups or excessive perquisites.    We do not provide excise tax gross-ups for severance benefits received by our NEOs under their employment arrangements. We only provide limited perquisites to our NEOs.

Retain Talented Leadership

We operate in a marketplace characterized by significant competition for talented executives. Our executive compensation program is designed to enable us to attract, motivate, reward and retain the management talent necessary to achieve both long-term and short-term corporate objectives and enhance shareholder value. We also aim to establish executive compensation levels that correlate directly to the NEO’s level of responsibility, with the compensation of our NEOs being tied both to our performance as a whole and to individual performance. To do this effectively, our philosophy is that our compensation program must provide our NEOs with a total compensation package that is reasonable in relation to our performance, and sufficiently competitive with the packages offered by similarly sized companies within or outside our industry.

Material Elements of Our Compensation Programs

In determining the compensation of our NEOs, the Compensation Committee uses the following specific compensation elements, which it believes support our compensation objectives.

   Executive Severance Plan      

  

CEO Stock Ownership Guidelines, Anti-Hedging Policy, Anti-Pledging Policy and Claw-Back Policy

   Compensation risk mitigators         

The Compensation Committee determines the amounts of each element and the aggregate compensation for our NEOs without using any specific formula or attempting to satisfy any specific ratio for compensation among our NEOs; however, the differences in the aggregate compensation between our CEO and the other NEOs are intended to reflect the individual responsibilities with respect to their respective positions, experience in the applicable role, experience in our industry and market compensation data for peer companies. In determining compensation for our NEOs, the Compensation Committee considers the amount of compensation they receive in cash versus equity, along with the status of outstanding equity awards.

The Compensation Committee views the components of compensation as related, but distinct, and therefore regularly reevaluates the appropriate mix of elements, including the appropriate targets for incentive awards. The Compensation Committee also relies on the independent expertise compiled from the general knowledge, experience and good judgment of its members, both with regard to competitive compensation levels and the relative success that our Company has achieved. The Compensation Committee also retains, and relies on information provided by, compensation consultants.

Base Salary

Base salary generally provides a fixed base level of compensation for our executives for the services they render during the year. The purpose of base salary is to compensate our NEOs in light of their respective roles and responsibilities over time. Base salary is essential to allow us to compete in the employment marketplace for talent and is an important component of total compensation for the NEOs. It is vital to our goal of recruiting and retaining NEOs with proven abilities. A NEO’s base salary is initially set in accordance with the terms of his or her employment agreement or letter and is reviewed annually or as needed. Increases, if any, to base salary are based generally upon a subjective assessment of overall individual performance, market trends and the Company’s performance. In evaluating the Company’s performance in fiscal 2022, the primary consideration was our financial performance for the relevant annual period, with a focus on consolidated adjusted EBITDA and Intelisys revenue.

Annual Variable Performance-Based Cash Incentive Awards

Annual variable performance-based cash incentive awards are designed to encourage the achievement of various pre-determined Company financial and operating performance goals. In fiscal 2022, the performance metrics included consolidated adjusted EBITDA and Intelisys revenue as the primary measurements of performance for cash incentive awards, because of our belief that each such measurement has a strong correlation with shareholder value. Our management emphasizes these measures in evaluating and monitoring the Company’s financial condition and operating performance. These metrics assist us in comparing our performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis because they remove from our operating results the impact of items that do not reflect our core operating performance. The Compensation Committee has the discretion to adjust these measurements for extraordinary one-time events, or other items beyond management’s control, and to award cash incentives based on other criteria. In fiscal 2022, no such adjustments or additional awards were made under the performance-based cash incentive program.

Annual Performance-Based and Service-Based Equity Awards

The Compensation Committee annually grants equity to our NEOs, since it believes this element of our compensation program provides our NEOs with the opportunity to develop a significant ownership stake in the Company and directly aligns their interests with the long-term interests of our shareholders. In addition, equity awards serve as a retention vehicle for the NEOs because, if the applicable criteria is met, they typically vest over a set number of years and generally are forfeited if not vested upon termination of employment. In fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee updated the form of time-based restricted stock units to provide for vesting over four years, increasing the retention value of the award. In fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee also eliminated stock options and reintroduced performance-based equity awards into the compensation mix.

In approving long-term equity incentives, the Compensation Committee focuses on our overall performance, the value of the proposed award, the amount and value of awards granted in prior years, and the overall compensation package of the NEO with the ultimate goal of aligning the interests of the executives with our shareholders’ interests and motivating and retaining critical leadership through the use of equity. The Compensation Committee also believes that linking the personal financial interests of our NEOs to our long-term performance discourages excessive risk taking and supports sustainable shareholder value creation.

We have historically granted annual equity awards to the NEOs at the November meeting of the Compensation Committee to align the timing more closely to the annual performance evaluations of those officers. In fiscal 2022, the annual performance of our officers was completed in August and the annual equity award grant date was also moved to that time. The equity award policy provides that the grant date will be the third trading date following the meeting at which the awards are approved, provided that the Company is in an open trading window, and otherwise on the first trading day of the next open window. Equity awards may also be made by the Compensation Committee from time to time to incentivize and reward certain performance and to provide additional retention value. See the “Long-Term Equity Incentives” section of this Compensation Discussion and Analysis for more information.

The Compensation Committee’s policy is to set the exercise price of stock option awards by using the closing price of our stock on the date of the grant. The Compensation Committee also determines the number of shares of a value-based restricted stock unit award by using the closing price of our stock on the grant date.

Process for Determining Named Executive Officer Compensation

Role of the Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is responsible for reviewing, approving, and monitoring compensation policies and programs that are consistent with our business strategy and aligned with shareholders’ interests. Specifically, the Compensation Committee is responsible for:

 

   

reviewing and approving the corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of the CEO and other NEOs;

 

   

negotiating the employment agreement of the CEO;

 

   

reviewing and approving any employment letters or contracts and severance plans of all other NEOs;

 

   

reviewing and approving annual incentive awards to NEOs; and

 

   

reviewing and approving equity-based compensation plans and grants of equity awards under such plans and the Board-approved policies or guidelines applicable to them.

The Compensation Committee meets several times each year to review and approve executive compensation programs and performance and, if necessary, recommend approval to the Board.

Role of Management

The Compensation Committee regularly meets with the CEO to receive reports and recommendations regarding the compensation of our NEOs other than the CEO. In particular, the CEO recommends to the Compensation Committee annual base salaries, annual incentive awards and long-term or performance equity grants for the NEOs other than himself. The Compensation Committee then evaluates each NEO, including the CEO, sets performance criteria for annual cash incentive awards, and makes long-term equity grants, if any. At the beginning of each fiscal year and as necessary throughout the year, Management Incentive Plan (“MIP”) targets for certain financial measures are established following consultation with management with consideration for adjustments for one-time expenses or longer-term investments that are planned. As part of its evaluation process, the Compensation Committee considers our performance and consistency, the NEO’s individual performance over the prior year, changes in responsibilities and future potential as well as data available from compensation surveys and compensation consultants. Although the Compensation Committee considers the CEO’s recommendations, the final decisions regarding base salary, annual incentive awards and equity awards of the NEOs are made by the Compensation Committee.

Role of Compensation Consultant

The Compensation Committee has the authority to retain independent compensation consultants to provide counsel and advice. For fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee retained Pearl Meyer. The Compensation Committee reviewed all factors relevant to the independence of Pearl Meyer, including:

 

   

The provision of services to the Company by the consultant other than those requested by the Compensation Committee;

 

   

The amount of fees received by the consultant as a percentage of its total revenue;

 

   

The policies and procedures adopted by the consultant that are designed to prevent conflicts of interest;

 

   

Any business or personal relationship between a consultant and a member of the Compensation Committee;

 

   

Any stock of the Company owned by a consultant; and

 

   

Any business or personal relationship between a consultant and an executive officer of the Company.

As a result of such evaluation, and a certification from Pearl Meyer regarding its consultant’s independence, the Compensation Committee determined that Pearl Meyer is independent.

 

15


The Compensation Committee regularly reviews benchmarking and market surveys in order to ensure that our compensation is competitive with that of our peers. The Compensation Committee also considers analysis and benchmarking by third parties, such as ISS and Equilar, and the different peer groups each firm uses for comparative purposes in order to gain a better understanding of compensation practices and trends in the market.

Our compensation consultants provide the Compensation Committee with general market surveys and other information related to the general market for executive compensation, including best practices and emerging trends. In addition, in fiscal 2022 Pearl Meyer provided information derived from proxy statements from peer companies and from surveys that include publicly traded and privately held technology distributors and other technology industry companies with similar revenues. The peer companies referred to for evaluation of fiscal 2022 compensation included the following:

 

Applied Industrial Technologies, Inc.    Benchmark Electronics, Inc.    Diebold Nixdorf, Inc.
ePlus, Inc.    Insight Enterprises, Inc.    Itron, Inc.
PC Connection, Inc.    Plexus Corp.    TTM Technologies, Inc.
WESCO International, Inc.      

The Compensation Committee reviewed compensation information from this peer group by comparable executive position and level to better understand the market for other participants in the market for all aspects of compensation. In a review of the applicable data, the Compensation Committee sought to ensure that the overall compensation to our NEOs was competitive and within norms for the industry and other companies of similar characteristics based on the executive’s position, level and job performance.

The Compensation Committee took this evaluation into account in determining all elements of NEO compensation for fiscal 2022, including the fiscal 2022 MIP design and equity awards.

Named Executive Officer Compensation in Fiscal 2022

Base Salary

The initial base salary for each NEO was established in the NEO’s employment agreement or employment letter. All NEO employment arrangements require an annual review of base salary by the Compensation Committee, and annual upward adjustments may be made by the Compensation Committee on a discretionary basis. In deciding whether to increase a NEO’s compensation, the Compensation Committee considers company performance, the consistency of the NEO’s individual performance over the prior year, changes in the NEO’s responsibilities and the NEO’s future potential. The Compensation Committee also considers data available from benchmarking studies obtained from a range of industry and general market sources, as well as information that may be provided by its compensation consultants, including comparisons of peer companies comprised of other participants in the industry and other similar companies based on size and other objective factors.

The Compensation Committee met in August of 2021 to determine Mr. Baur’s, Mr. Eldh’s, Mr. Jones’, Ms. Hayden’s, and Mr. Dean’s base salaries for fiscal 2022. The Compensation Committee did not award any base salary increases for these NEO’s for fiscal 2022. Mr. Eldh’s base salary was increased from $500,000 to $625,000 in connection with his appointment as President of the Company in February 2022.

Base salaries for Mr. Baur, Mr. Eldh, Mr. Jones, Ms. Hayden, and Mr. Dean for fiscal 2022 as of July 1, 2021 were as follows:

 

 Named Executive Officer

Annual Performance-Based Cash Incentives

The principal objective of our performance-based cash incentives is to motivate and reward our NEOs for performance in achieving our business objectives based upon annual attainment of certain financial measures. The Compensation Committee first created a cash incentive design for the NEOs in fiscal 2013, which we refer to as the Management Incentive Plan (“MIP”). Annual performance-based cash incentives were set based on an analysis of market data and assessing the experience of the respective individual and his or her respective role. The design provides that each NEO’s cash incentive opportunity will be expressed as a percentage of his or her base salary and earned based on non-GAAP operating results as compared to pre-established threshold and stretch goals. For fiscal 2022, Mr. Baur’s and Mr. Eldh’s cash incentive opportunity was 150% of their base salary, Mr. Jones’ cash incentive opportunity was 100% of his base salary, and Ms. Hayden’s and Mr. Dean’s cash incentive opportunity was 60% of his or her base salary. The cash incentive opportunities for our NEOs remained at the same level as fiscal 2021. Each NEO has a variable factor by role or position applied as a percentage against his or her respective base salary.

For fiscal year 2022, the Compensation Committee set MIP targets for consolidated adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and Intelysis revenue (“Agency Revenue”). The performance metrics were established by the Compensation Committee in August 2021. Each performance metric is adopted with certain adjustments to align management’s performance on focused strategic objectives. The maximum incentive award for any NEO is 200% of his or her target bonus.

For fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee established MIP performance targets as set forth below. The payouts of the awards depend on our results in comparison to these targets, weighted as follows: Adjusted EBITDA, 60% and Agency Revenue, 40%. If performance of any measure does not meet the applicable threshold for that measure, no award will be earned for that measure. If the performance of a measure reaches the applicable threshold, the award earned for that measure will be 50% of the target. The award earned for results between the threshold and the maximum of 200% of the target is calculated using straight-line interpolation.

For fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee elected not to make any discretionary modifications to the awards payable under the MIP. As a result of the Adjusted EBITDA and Agency Revenue results for fiscal 2022, the cash incentive award earned by the NEOs under the MIP in fiscal 2022 was 161.8% of the target, as compared to 154.9% in fiscal 2021 and 12.91% in fiscal 2020.

Ms. Hayden’s employment arrangement provided that she would be paid a hiring bonus of $200,000 to offset the bonus she left behind at her previous employment. $100,000 of this bonus was paid in July 2021 and the other $100,000 was paid in September 2021.

Long-Term Equity Incentives

General Overview

Equity awards are a significant component of our NEO compensation. We grant equity awards, typically in the form of restricted stock awards and/or restricted stock units and performance-based restricted stock units or awards. In fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee determined to resume awarding performance-based restricted stock and eliminate stock options. We maintain a formal Equity Award Grant Policy, whereby equity awards to employees are made by, or with the oversight of, the Compensation Committee or the Board. Under the policy, the Compensation Committee must approve any equity awards to the NEOs. Under the policy, our Principal Accounting Officer and human resources management oversee the documentation of, and accounting for, equity award grants.

The Compensation Committee grants annual service-based equity awards to employees based on merit, which vest over a four-year period in the majority of instances, provided that the grantee remains employed with the Company through each vesting date. In fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee determined to update the forms of time-based restricted stock unit awards to provide for a four-year vesting period as opposed to the prior three-year vesting period. The grant date for annual equity awards provides that the grant date will be the third trading date following the meeting at which the awards are approved, provided that the Company is in an open trading window, and otherwise on the first trading day of the next open window. In addition, vesting of such awards accelerates on a change in control followed by termination in certain instances or upon death, disability or termination due to retirement. In certain circumstances, the vesting term may be reduced due to termination of employment, death or disability of a participant.

In addition to the annual service-based equity awards discussed above, the Compensation Committee also historically granted to certain employees, including our NEOs, performance-based restricted stock awards and/or restricted stock units that contain both performance and service vesting conditions over a multi-year period. For fiscal 2021, the performance-based restricted stock units were replaced with stock options. In fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee determined that it was appropriate to reintroduce performance-based restricted stock.

The Compensation Committee may also make special grants of equity awards during the year in the case of the hiring or promotion of certain eligible persons, or in other situations not involving annual grants. The grant date for non-annual grants approved by the Compensation Committee on or before the 15th day of the second month of the quarter will be the first day of the third month of such quarter. For non-annual grants approved after the 15th day of the second month of the quarter, the grant date will be the first day of the third month of the following quarter. In any event, all equity awards must be made during an open trading window.

The number of shares subject to equity awards granted by the Compensation Committee to NEOs in a given year is based on, among other things, overall Company performance, the number of shares available for awards under the 2021 Plan or successor plan, the value of the proposed award, the amount and realizable value of equity awards awarded in prior years, total compensation and consideration of the competitive market practice for the respective position level and experience, with the ultimate objective of motivating, rewarding and retaining NEOs while maintaining efficient use of equity and preserving shareholder value.

Fiscal 2022 Equity Awards

The annual grant of long-term equity incentives was awarded to our NEOs in August 2021, as provided below. The time-based restricted stock unit awards below generally vest and become exercisable in one-fourth increments on the anniversary of the grant date over four years, subject to the continued employment of the NEO on the applicable vesting date. The performance-based restricted stock unit awards below generally vest and become exercisable in one-third increments on the anniversary of the grant date over three years, subject to the continued employment of the NEO on the applicable vesting date.

The long-term equity incentives awarded to our NEOs in fiscal 2022 are set forth below:

Other Important Compensation Policies Affecting the Named Executive Officers

Claw-Back Policy

If a NEO receives an award under our equity or cash incentive plans based on financial statements that subsequently are restated in a way that would decrease the amount of the award to which such NEO was entitled and the restatement is based in whole or in part on the misconduct of the NEO, then the NEO will be required to refund the Company the difference between what they received and what they should have received. In addition, this policy requires the recoupment of any compensation to the extent mandated by all applicable laws, rules, and regulations. The Compensation Committee monitors laws, rules and regulations on claw-back policies and will amend this policy as required to comply with any new claw-back rules or regulations.

Stock Ownership Requirements

The Compensation Committee has adopted minimum ownership requirements for Company stock for the CEO, as well as for the independent directors of the Board. The ownership target for the CEO has been established as three times his annual base compensation. Our CEO is expected to utilize grants under equity compensation plans to maintain the levels of ownership required by the policy. The policy also incorporates an equity retention requirement by requiring him to retain 50% of the net shares resulting from the vesting or exercise of certain awards to obtain the required ownership under the policy. The independent directors of our Board have an ownership target of five times their $85,000 annual board cash retainer in Company securities.

As of June 30, 2022, our CEO and all other members of our Board were in compliance with our stock ownership guidelines.

 

19


Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy

Our NEOs and directors are prohibited from holding Company securities in margin accounts or pledging Company securities as collateral for a loan. All NEOs and directors are in compliance with this policy. Our NEOs and directors also are prohibited from hedging transactions.

Perquisites

We provide only limited perquisites to our NEOs, including the availability of a voluntary comprehensive physical examination once every fiscal year. The physical examinations help ensure our NEOs’ continued health and ability to render services to the Company. The physicals are provided to encourage senior leaders of the Company to set the example for living positively and active healthy living. We do not provide any other material perquisites to our NEOs.

Health and Insurance Plans

Our NEOs are entitled to participate in our health, vision, dental, paid time off, life, disability and employee stock purchase plans to the same degree that our other employees are entitled to participate. In addition, our NEOs participate in a supplemental long-term disability plan and each receives term life insurance in the amount of $1,000,000 (subject to underwriting) and $500,000 (subject to limited underwriting).

Deferred Compensation Plan

We maintain a deferred compensation plan pursuant to which NEOs may defer a portion of their annual compensation. These deferrals are matched to the extent specified in each NEO’s employment agreement or letter, and such contributions vest over a five-year period. Participants invest their deferrals and Company matching contributions among various funds designated by the plan administrator (and currently may not be invested in our common stock). Participants become fully-vested in any employer contributions as long as they are continuously employed until their death, total disability, reaching the date in which the sum of age and years of service equals or exceeds 65, or the occurrence of a change in control. We maintain the deferred compensation plan to provide a competitive benefit and to facilitate adequate savings for retirement on a tax efficient basis for our NEOs.

Retirement Benefits

The NEOs are eligible to participate in our 401(k) Plan, which is a Company-wide, tax-qualified retirement plan. The intent of this plan is to provide all employees with a tax-advantaged savings opportunity for retirement. We sponsor this plan to help employees at all levels save and accumulate assets for use during their retirement. Eligible pay under this plan is capped at Internal Revenue Code annual limits. We provide a 50% matching contribution on the first 6% that an employee contributes. These Company contributions vest over a five-year period.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Eligible employees may participate in our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), which is a Company-wide employee stock purchase plan. The intent of the ESPP is to assist our employees in acquiring a stock ownership interest in the Company.

Employment Agreements and Employment Letters

We have determined that our Company’s and our shareholders’ interests are best served by entering into (i) an employment agreement with our CEO and (ii) employment letters with an accompanying severance plan with our other NEOs. Such agreements, letters and plans are the result of arms’ length negotiations between the Compensation Committee, the Company, the CEO and other NEOs, and all are approved by the Compensation Committee. We believe that these employment arrangements benefit us and our shareholders by permitting us to attract and retain NEOs with demonstrated leadership abilities and to secure their services over an extended period of time. In addition, the employment arrangements align executive interests with the long-term interests of the Company and serve our recruitment and retention goals by providing executive officers with security based on the knowledge of how they will be compensated over the course of their employment, while at the same time providing the Company with significant protections regarding non-competition, non-solicitation of business and employees, and confidential business information.

On June 15, 2017, we entered into a three-year employment agreement, effective July 1, 2017, with Mr. Baur. Mr. Baur’s employment agreement provides for:

 

   

a base salary of $875,000 per year;

 

   

an annual target variable compensation opportunity of 150% of his base salary (with a maximum opportunity of 200% of target) based upon performance and the attainment of performance goals set by the Compensation Committee;

 

   

consideration for inclusion in our annual equity grant program at a grant level opportunity of $2,250,000;

 

   

the opportunity to participate in our Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan by deferring up to 50% of base salary and/or up to 100% of annual variable compensation, with a match of 50% of deferred amounts to be made by the Company, up to a maximum of $200,000 per year; and

 

   

automatic one-year renewals unless 180 days’ prior notice of non-renewal is given to the other party following the initial term.

In addition, we will make additional payments to Mr. Baur’s deferred compensation account to cover the cost of future premiums for “access only” continuation coverage under our medical and dental plan following termination of employment until Mr. Baur attains age 65 and to cover the cost of coverage for years after age 65 assuming Mr. Baur is enrolled in Medicare Parts A, B and D, obtains a Medicare supplemental policy until age 80, and pays the full cost for such coverage.

Under Mr. Baur’s employment agreement, variable cash incentive opportunities will continue to be based upon the performance and attainment of performance goals to be established annually by the Compensation Committee, subject to maximum amounts that may be earned. Mr. Baur’s annual equity award opportunity is subject to the Compensation Committee’s discretion and the terms of our equity plan and related equity award agreements.

Mr. Baur’s employment agreement also provides for severance payments to Mr. Baur upon certain events, as further described in the “Severance Plan” section below.

On September 27, 2019, we entered into an employment letter with Mr. Eldh in connection with his appointment as our Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer, effective October 1, 2019.

See the “Employment Arrangements and Potential Payments upon Certain Events” section for more information on Mr. Baur’s, Mr. Eldh’s, Mr. Jones’, Ms. Hayden’s and Mr. Dean’s employment arrangements that were in effect during fiscal 2022.

Severance Plan

We have established a severance plan to provide severance and other benefits to certain executives selected by the Compensation Committee to participate in the severance plan. The Company’s severance plan is uniform for the current executives selected by the Compensation Committee to participate at their respective levels, excepting Mr. Eldh, who has several provisions that are individually tailored, as described below. We refer to the Company severance plan and Mr. Eldh’s severance plan collectively as the “Severance Plan.”

The employment arrangements with our NEOs and the Severance Plan provide that, if the employment of any participant in the Severance Plan is terminated by the Company without cause, or if the Executive resigns for good reason, we will be required to pay or provide the executive’s base salary earned through the date of termination. In addition, we will also be required to pay to the executive in such instances any other amounts or benefits the executive is eligible to receive under any Company plan, program, policy, practice, contract or agreement in accordance with their terms. In such instances, we will also be required to provide severance benefits to the executive, subject to the executive’s execution of a release, consisting of compensation equal to the average annual base salary and variable compensation earned by the executive, including any amounts earned but deferred, in the last three fiscal years completed prior to the termination (the “Average Compensation Amount”), multiplied by a severance multiple, less withholdings. In the case of Mr. Baur, the severance multiple is equal to 2.5, in the case of Mr. Eldh, Mr. Jones, Ms. Hayden and Mr. Dean the severance multiple is 1.5, and in the case of any other executive participating in the Severance Plan, the severance multiple will be set forth in a participation agreement between the Company and such executive (a “Participation Agreement”), but such multiple may not exceed 2.5. In the event the termination occurs within 12 months after or prior to and in contemplation of certain change in control events, Mr. Baur will receive three times his Average Compensation Amount, Mr. Eldh, Mr. Jones, Ms. Hayden and Mr. Dean will receive two times their respective Average Compensation Amount and, in the case of any other executive participating in the Severance Plan, such executive will receive his or her Average Compensation Amount multiplied by his or her change in control multiple, as set forth in a Participation Agreement. In addition, in the event that the executive’s employment is terminated by us without cause, or if the executive resigns for good reason, the executive will be entitled to receive a bonus equal to the pro-rata portion of the then current fiscal year annual variable compensation that otherwise would be payable to the executive based on actual performance. For a period of up to twenty-four months (or in the case of Mr. Eldh, for up to eighteen months) following the date of such a termination (or in the case of Mr. Baur, until he attains 65 years of age), the executives shall be entitled to participate in our medical and dental plans, with the executive paying the full premium charged for such coverage subject to the terms of the employment agreement, the employment letter, and/or the Severance Plan, as applicable.

If the executive’s employment is terminated for cause or if the executive voluntarily terminates his or her employment during the term of the agreement, other than for good reason, we will only be obligated to provide any accrued amounts payable on the executive’s annual base salary or any other amounts not previously paid, but earned, by the executive through the date of termination, and benefits under other plans in accordance with their terms. If the executive dies, becomes disabled, or retires during the term of the employment agreement, the employment letter, and/or the Severance Plan, as applicable, we will only be obligated to provide any accrued

 

22


amounts payable on the executive’s annual base salary or any other amounts not previously paid, but earned, by the executive as of the date of termination, a bonus equal to the pro-rata portion of the then current fiscal year annual variable compensation that would otherwise be payable to the executive based on actual performance, and benefits under other plans in accordance with their terms.

If we do not renew the employment agreement, or enter into a new employment agreement with the same or similar terms after the end of the employment period, and Mr. Baur remains an employee of the Company in any capacity, Mr. Baur’s employment will be on an at-will basis, and Mr. Baur generally will be eligible to receive the same severance benefits set forth in the employment agreement.

In addition, each employment agreement, employment letter, and/or Severance Plan, as applicable, requires the executive not to, during the term of his or her employment and for a period of two years (or in the case of Mr. Eldh, for a period of 18 months) following the termination of such executive’s employment: (a) compete with the Company; (b) solicit certain customers or suppliers and certain prospective customers or suppliers of the Company; or (c) solicit employees to leave the Company. Each of the employment agreement, the employment letter, and/or the Severance Plan, as applicable, also requires the executive not to use or disclose our confidential information or trade secrets during the term of his or her employment and for a period of five years thereafter or for so long as the trade secrets remain protected. In addition, the Company and each executive agree not to disparage each other during the term of employment or for a period of five years thereafter. If an executive breaches or threatens to breach such restrictions on conduct, we may immediately cease any severance benefits or refuse such payment and shall be entitled to recover from any such executive any amounts previously paid as a severance benefit.

Upon his departure from the Company in July 2022, under the terms of the Severance Plan, Mr. Dean was entitled to receive compensation from the Company as determined under the provisions therein.

Post-Termination Restrictions and Compensation

The Compensation Committee believes that our NEOs should be provided with reasonable severance benefits in the event a NEO is terminated under certain circumstances. Severance benefits for NEOs reflect the fact that the NEO may not be able to find reasonably comparable employment within a reasonable period of time following a termination. In addition, the Compensation Committee believes that certain post-termination benefits such as change in control payments will allow the NEOs to focus their time on potential transactions that may be beneficial to the Company, rather than have concern for their own employment prospects following a change in control. Severance benefits are provided under our employment agreements, employment letters and/or the Severance Plan, as applicable.

Non-Compete and Non-Solicitation Agreements

Our NEOs are obligated pursuant to their employment agreements, employment letters, and/or the Severance Plan, as applicable, not to compete with the Company for a period of two years (or in the case of Mr. Eldh, for a period of 18 months) following their termination of employment with the Company. These agreements also restrict the NEOs’ disclosure and use of confidential information to which they were exposed during their employment. In addition, the agreements provide for restrictions on the solicitation of suppliers, customers and employees of the Company for a period of twenty-four months (or in the case of Mr. Eldh, for a period of eighteen months) following termination of employment.

Severance and Change in Control Benefits

In the event of a termination of employment by the Company other than for cause, death, disability, retirement, the expiration of the employment agreement (in the case of Mr. Baur), or by a NEO for good reason, the NEO will be entitled to a severance payment, provided that the NEO is in, and remains in, compliance with the non-competition, confidentiality, non-solicitation and related covenants provided in his or her employment agreement or the Severance Plan. The amount of a severance payment varies based upon the NEO’s historic compensation amounts, up to two and a half times the Chief Executive Officer’s and one and one-half times the other NEO’s average annual base salary and variable compensation over the last three fiscal years prior to a termination. These potential payments are discussed in more detail under the caption “Employment Arrangements and Potential Payments Upon Certain Events” below.

 

23


Our NEOs’ employment agreements, employment letters, and/or the Severance Plan, as applicable, provide for severance in the event of certain termination in connection with a change of control. Such severance payments will be made only if a “double trigger” is met. That is, both a change in control and a termination of employment are required. This is discussed in more detail under the caption “Employment Arrangements and Potential Payments Upon Certain Events” below. The Compensation Committee believes this benefit is required to offer competitive benefits to attract and retain highly qualified executives.

Additional Compensation Matters

Risk Assessment of Compensation Policies and Practices

We have assessed our compensation programs for all employees and have concluded that our compensation policies and practices do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. We believe that our compensation program reflects an appropriate mix of compensation elements and balances current and long-term performance objectives, cash and equity compensation, and risks and rewards. During fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee reviewed our compensation policies and practices for all employees, including our NEOs, particularly as they relate to risk management practices and risk-taking incentives. As part of its review, the Compensation Committee discussed with management the ways in which risk is effectively managed or mitigated as it relates to our compensation programs and policies.

Based on this review, the Compensation Committee believes that our compensation programs do not encourage excessive risk but instead encourage behaviors that support sustainable value creation. The following features of our executive incentive compensation program illustrate this point:

 

   

Our compensation program design provides a balanced mix of cash and equity and annual and long-term incentives that are designed to encourage strategies and actions that are in the Company’s and our shareholders’ long-term best interests. Equity awards such as service and performance-based restricted stock awards and restricted stock units reinforce our long-term performance perspective.

 

   

Our performance goals and objectives generally reflect a mix of corporate and other performance measures designed to promote progress towards both our annual and longer-term goals.

 

   

A significant component of each of our NEOs’ total direct compensation consists of long-term, equity-based incentive awards that are designed to encourage these NEOs to focus on sustained stock price appreciation.

 

   

Equity awards typically have vesting schedules of three or four years and, in some cases, have performance-based vesting components as well; thus, NEOs typically will always have unvested awards that could decrease significantly in value if our business is not well-managed for the long term.

 

   

Equity incentive awards are granted periodically, typically annually, during open window periods and under an established equity grant program.

 

   

The Compensation Committee believes that our overall compensation of our NEOs is at reasonable and sustainable levels, as determined by a review of historical analysis and a review of our economic positions and prospects, as well as the compensation offered by comparable companies.

 

   

The Compensation Committee retains discretion to reduce compensation based on corporate and individual performance and other factors.

 

   

Equity awards are subject to annual limitations on the number of shares that may be awarded during any year. The typical Company compensation structure has a threshold and maximum for cash bonuses.

 

   

The target levels under our annual cash bonus program are designed to be set at a level where achieving the target incentive compensation levels is not guaranteed and the achievement of such levels is rewarding to both the NEO and the shareholders.

 

   

NEO base salaries are consistent with the NEOs’ responsibilities so that they are not motivated to take excessive risks to achieve a reasonable level of financial security.

 

   

Our internal reporting system ensures a consistent and ongoing assessment of financial results used to determine payouts.

 

24


   

Our stock ownership policy sets out a minimum level of Company share ownership for our CEO so that he has personal wealth tied to the long-term success of Company and is therefore aligned with shareholders and imposes an equity retention requirement to facilitate attaining such levels of ownership.

 

   

We maintain a “claw-back policy,” which requires the reimbursement to the Company of any incentive compensation to executive and certain other officers, the payment of which was predicated upon the achievement of financial results that were subsequently the subject of a restatement caused by the recipient’s fraud or misconduct, or otherwise is required under applicable laws, rules, and regulations.

 

   

NEOs must obtain permission from the Legal Department before the purchase or sale of any shares, even during an open trading period.

Based on a combination of the above, we believe that (i) our NEOs and other employees are encouraged to manage the Company in a prudent manner because our compensation programs are aligned with our business strategy and risk profile, and (ii) our incentive programs are not designed to encourage our NEOs or other employees to take excessive risks or risks that are inconsistent with the Company’s and shareholders’ best interests. In addition, we have in place various controls and management processes that help mitigate the potential for incentive compensation plans to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Impact of Accounting and Tax Treatment of Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Code generally sets a limit of $1 million on the amount of compensation that we may deduct for federal income tax purposes in any given year with respect to the compensation of each of our NEOs. For years beginning prior to January 1, 2018, the $1 million limitation did not apply to qualified performance-based compensation that satisfied certain requirements, including, among others, approval of the material terms of the plan by our shareholders. Effective for the years beginning on or after January 1, 2018, there is no exception for qualified performance-based compensation from the Section 162(m) limitation, although a transition rule applies in some circumstances for outstanding awards. We consider the impact of the deduction limit under Section 162(m) when developing and implementing our executive compensation programs. We intend to design our executive compensation arrangements to be consistent with the interests of our shareholders. We believe that it is important to preserve flexibility in administering compensation programs to promote various corporate goals. Accordingly, we have not adopted a policy that all compensation must qualify as deductible under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. Some amounts paid under our compensation programs may not be deductible as the result of Section 162(m).

Amounts represent voluntary deferrals of salary, bonus or a combination of both salary and bonus under our Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan. Contributions of deferred salary are reported as fiscal year 2022 income in the “Salary” column of the 2022 Summary Compensation Table.

(2)

Amounts reflect voluntary deferrals under our Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan associated with plan awards for fiscal year 2022 but paid in fiscal year 2023.

(3)

Amounts represents our matching contributions under our Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan. These amounts are reported as fiscal year 2022 income in the “All Other Compensation” column of the 2022 Summary Compensation Table.

(4)

Reflects cash flows for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.

Our Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan permits our NEOs to elect to defer a portion of their base salary and incentive bonus, and to receive matching contributions from the Company on a portion of the deferred amounts. Mr. Baur may defer up to 50% of his base compensation and 100% of his bonus, and we will provide a matching contribution of 50% of the amount deferred up to a calendar year limit of $200,000 in matching contributions. Each of Mr. Eldh, Mr. Jones, Ms. Hayden and Mr. Dean may defer up to 50% of his or her base salary and 100% of his or her bonus, and we will provide a matching contribution of 30% on the first 15% of compensation deferred.

 

30


Deferred amounts are credited to each participant’s account, which are invested in one or more investment alternatives chosen by each participant from a range of mutual fund offerings and other investments available under the plan. Each participant’s account is adjusted to reflect the investment performance of the selected investments. Benefits under the plan are payable in cash and generally will be paid in either a lump sum or in annual installments over a certain term upon retirement, death or other termination of employment, or upon a change in control of the Company, as elected in advance by the participant. A participant may also elect to receive some or all of the deferred amounts and related earnings pursuant to an in-service distribution, subject to a minimum five-year deferral.

Employment Arrangements and Potential Payments Upon Certain Events

We have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Baur that was effective July 1, 2017 and employment letters with Mr. Eldh, Mr. Jones, and Ms. Hayden effective October 1, 2019, December 14, 2020, and June 7, 2021, respectively. Mr. Baur, Mr. Eldh, Mr. Jones, and Ms. Hayden also participate in the Severance Plan. Notwithstanding these employment arrangements, each of Mr. Baur, Mr. Eldh, Mr. Jones, and Ms. Hayden has the right to voluntarily terminate his or her employment at any time. The employment arrangements set forth the general terms and conditions of Mr. Baur’s, Mr. Eldh’s, Mr. Jones’, and Ms. Hayden’s employment and provide for certain severance benefits upon the occurrence of certain events.

We had an employment letter with Mr. Dean effective January 11, 2018 and Mr. Dean participated in the Severance Plan prior to his departure from the Company in July 2022. As a result of his departure, Mr. Dean will receive benefits under the Severance Plan as determined under the provisions therein.

The material elements of compensation of each NEO as contained in their employment arrangements are described in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section herein. The following sets forth in tabular format the incremental compensation that would be payable to such NEO in the event of his termination of employment under various scenarios, which we refer to as termination events. In accordance with SEC rules, the following discussion assumes:

 

   

That the termination event in question occurred on June 30, 2022, the last day of fiscal 2022; and

 

   

With respect to calculations based on our stock price, the reported closing price of our common stock on June 30, 2022, $31.14, was used.

The tables contained in this section do not include payments made to a NEO with respect to contracts, agreements, plans or arrangements to the extent they do not discriminate in scope, terms or operation, in favor of our executive officers and that are available generally to all salaried employees, such as our 401(k) plan. The actual amounts that would be paid upon a termination event can only be determined at the time of such executive officer’s termination. Due to the number of factors that affect the nature and amount of any compensation or benefits provided upon the termination events, any actual amounts paid or distributed may be higher or lower than reported below. Factors that could affect these amounts include the timing during the year of any such event and our stock price at such time.

Mr. Baur

General

Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Baur’s employment agreement, he was entitled to receive an annual base salary of $875,000 in fiscal 2022.

Subject to the provisions of his employment agreement, Mr. Baur is obligated to comply with certain provisions relating to non-competition (for two years post termination), confidentiality and non-solicitation of customers and employees (for two years post termination) if his employment is terminated.

Pay Ratio Disclosure

Pursuant to Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Exchange Act, we are required to disclose the median annual total compensation of all the Company’s employees, the total compensation of our CEO and the ratio of those two amounts. The pay ratio set forth below is a reasonable estimate and has been calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules and based on the methodology described below. The SEC rules for identifying median employees allow companies to use a variety of methodologies. As a result, the pay ratio reported by others may not be comparable to our reported pay ratio. For the year ended June 30, 2022:

 

   

the total compensation for our median employee was $59,309.71;

 

   

the annual total compensation of Mr. Baur was $6,085,184; and

 

   

based on the information above, the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the median of the annual total compensation of all employees is 102.6 to 1.

During the year ended June 30, 2022, there were no changes in our employee population or employee compensation arrangements that we reasonably believe would result in a significant change to our pay ratio disclosure. Therefore, to calculate the pay ratio for the year ended June 30, 2022, we used the same median employee identified as of June 30, 2021. The methodology that we used and the material assumptions, adjustments and estimates that we used to identify the median and determine annual total compensation were as follows:

Employee population. As of June 30, 2021, the date we selected to identify our median employee, our employee population consisted of approximately 2,184 individuals, with 765 employees representing 35% of our total employee population located outside the United States and 1,419 employees representing 65% of our total employee population located in the United States.

 

35


Identification of Median. To identify the median of the annual total compensation of all of our employees, we reviewed the total cash earnings of all employees for the twelve-month period ending on June 30, 2021 (the “reported compensation”). In making this calculation, we annualized the reported compensation of all of our employees who were hired during the period. While we did not make any cost of living adjustments to the reported compensation in identifying the median employee, we did convert the reported compensation of our non-United States employees to United States dollars using the applicable conversion rate as of June 30, 2021. Using this methodology, we determined that our median employee was a full-time, salaried employee located in the United States.

Amounts shown are the aggregate grant date fair value of restricted stock awards computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures. For a discussion of the assumptions made in such valuation, see Note 12 to our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. Each then-serving non-employee director received a restricted stock award on August 27, 2021 for 3,700 shares that vested in February 2022.

(2)

Mr. Mathis was appointed as a director of the Company effective August 19, 2021.

(3)

Mr. Reilly’s service as a director of the Company ended on January 27, 2022.

(4)

No director had any stock awards outstanding as of June 30, 2022.

Cash Retainers for Fiscal 2022

Directors who are not our employees are paid an annual retainer of $85,000. An additional annual retainer of $70,000 is paid, as applicable, to a non-executive Chairman or Lead Independent Director of the Board. An additional annual retainer of $25,000 is paid to the chair of the Audit Committee, and an additional annual retainer of $15,000 is paid to the chair of the Compensation Committee. An additional annual retainer of $5,000 was paid to the chairs of the Nominating Committee and Governance Committee serving at such time. Annual service for this purpose relates to the approximate 12-month periods between annual meetings of our shareholders. All directors are reimbursed for expenses incurred in connection with the performance of their services as directors as well as the cost of any director education. As of January 1, 2019, directors may elect to receive any portion of their cash fees in shares. In August 2021, given the combination of the Nominating Committee and the Governance Committee, the director compensation plan was revised to provide for an annual retainer of $10,000 for the chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Equity Retainers for Fiscal 2022

Our non-employee directors receive an annual equity retainer under the 2021 Plan. In addition, non-employee directors also may be eligible to receive other awards under our 2021 Plan. As of January 1, 2019, each non-employee director can elect to receive the award in restricted stock awards or restricted stock units and can elect to defer his or her equity award under the deferred compensation plan.

 

36


The number of shares subject to a director’s annual equity award was determined by dividing $130,000 by the equity award value per share on the grant date. For fiscal 2023, the equity award value is increased from $130,000 to $150,000. The equity award value means the closing price of the common stock on the grant date. The date of grant of the annual equity awards for our non-employee directors takes place at the same time as the annual equity awards for our employees.

A person who first becomes a non-employee director on a date other than a regularly scheduled annual meeting of shareholders will receive a restricted stock award for a pro-rated number of shares of common stock. Restricted stock may not be transferred or sold until it has vested.

Restricted stock granted to directors under the 2021 Plan will vest in full on the day that is twelve months after the date of grant, or if earlier, the next annual shareholders’ meeting, provided the director is still in service as a director of the Company on the vesting date and has been in service since the Grant Date; or upon the earlier occurrence of (i) the director’s termination of service as a director by reason of death, disability or retirement or (ii) a change in control of the Company. If a director terminates service for any other reason, he or she will forfeit all of his or her right, title and interest in and to the unvested restricted stock as of the date of termination, unless the Board or the Compensation Committee determines otherwise.

Stock Ownership and Retention Policy

Under the equity ownership policy, directors are expected to hold five times their annual Board cash retainer in Company securities. The policy also incorporates a retention requirement by requiring such persons to retain 50% of the net shares resulting from the vesting of certain awards until the required ownership under the policy is met. As of the end of the 2022 fiscal year, all directors were in compliance with this policy.

Item 13.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

Certain Relationships and Related-Party Transactions

The Audit Committee reviews all related party transactions (as defined by Item 404 of Regulation S-K) in accordance with NASDAQ listing standards. In addition, the charter of the Audit Committee requires the Audit Committee to review a summary of any director’s or officer’s related-party transactions and potential conflicts of interest on a yearly basis. The charter also requires the Audit Committee to review our conflict of interest policy (which is part of our Code of Conduct) and compliance with that policy on an annual basis.

We are not aware of any related-party transaction since the beginning of fiscal 2022 required to be reported under our policy or applicable SEC rules for which our policies and procedures did not require review or for which such policies and procedures were not followed.

There are no family relationships among the executive officers and directors, and there are no arrangements or understandings between any independent director or any other person pursuant to which that independent director was selected as a director.

Director Independence

In accordance with the listing standards of The NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) and our Corporate Governance Guidelines (the “Guidelines”), our Board consists of a majority of independent directors. The Board has determined that all members of the Board, other than Mr. Baur, meet the requirements for being “independent” as defined in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations and NASDAQ listing standards.

The Board maintains three committees as follows: (1) an Audit Committee, (2) a Compensation Committee, and (3) a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Each committee of the Board is comprised only of independent directors.

In addition, under our Corporate Governance Guidelines, executive officers are prohibited from serving as a director of another company that concurrently employs a director of the Company.

Audit Committee’s Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

It is the policy of the Audit Committee to pre-approve all audit and permitted non-audit services proposed to be performed by our independent auditor. All audit and permitted non-audit services performed in fiscal 2022 were pre-approved by the Audit Committee. The process for such pre-approval is typically as follows: Audit Committee pre-approval is sought at one of the Audit Committee’s regularly scheduled meetings following the presentation of information at such meeting detailing the particular services proposed to be performed. The authority to pre-approve non-audit services may be delegated by the Audit Committee, pursuant to guidelines approved by the Audit Committee, to one or more members of the Audit Committee. None of the services described above were approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to the exception provided by the Exchange Act rules.

The Audit Committee has reviewed the non-audit services provided by Grant Thornton and has determined that the provision of such services is compatible with maintaining Grant Thornton’s independence for the period of time during which it has served as our independent auditor.
