Executive Board remuneration

The remuneration system for the Executive Board is determined by the Supervisory Board. The Personnel, Nomination and Remuneration Committee develops recommendations for the Executive Board remuneration system, which the Supervisory Board also discusses and decides on in detail.

The Personnel, Nomination and Remuneration Committee regularly reviews the Executive Board's remuneration system and presents relevant proposals to the Supervisory Board. The remuneration system is resubmitted to the Annual General Meeting for approval after significant changes and in any case every four years.

The remuneration system for the Executive Board of DMG MORI AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT is geared to promoting the business strategy and the sustainable and long-term development of the company. This is achieved in compliance with the statutory requirements and in consideration of competitive aspects. The remuneration system was prepared by the Supervisory Board by resolution of 28 November 2019 on the legal basis of the Implementation of the Shareholders' Rights Directive (ARUG II) and approved by the 118th Annual General Meeting on 15 May 2020.

Essential elements of the remuneration system

The system's fundamental structure abides by the following guiding principles:

  • a) Extraordinary performances and successes should be rewarded adequately, while target shortfalls should entail a substantial reduction of the remuneration ("pay-forperformance-orientation").
  • b) The collective performance of the Executive Board members should be promoted without constraining the entrepreneurial discretion of the individual members in their respective portfolio remits. Since important strategic goals can only be achieved in an interdisciplinary approach with the collaboration of all Executive Board members, short and long-term remuneration components result from different performance indicators to which the Executive Board members contribute.
  • c) The remuneration system for the Executive Board members is consistently adaptable to the remuneration systems for the other management and staff levels within the group.
  • d) The remuneration of the Executive Board members should conform with market standards and reflect the size, complexity and strategic direction as well as economic situation of the company.

This forms the basis on which Executive Board members are offered a competitive and market value remuneration package that keeps within the regulatory requirements and promotes the sustainable work of the Executive Board. This is intended to secure the best possible candidates for the Executive Board of DMG MORI AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT, both now and in the future.

The remuneration system adopted by the Supervisory Board conforms with the current requirements under the German Stock Corporation Act and in all essential aspects with the recommendations made in the German Corporate Governance Code (DCGK), with the exception that the long-term remuneration component is not share-based. In consideration of the existing domination and profit transfer agreement between DMG MORI AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT and DMG MORI Europe Holding GmbH (until 9 September 2022: DMG MORI GmbH), a 100 % subsidiary of DMG MORI COMPANY LIMITED, on the one hand and the limited free float of the stock on the other hand, it was decided that a remuneration component that is paid in shares or a share-based remuneration component will not be implemented.

Adequacy of the Executive Board remuneration

Following preparation by the Personnel, Nomination and Remuneration Committee, the Supervisory Board determines the amount of the total target remuneration for the upcoming financial year for each Executive Board member based on the remuneration system. The total target remuneration for each Executive Board member is the sum of base remuneration, the STI for 100 % target achievement, the LTI for 100 % target achievement and the pension contribution.

In addition to being reasonably proportionate to the duties and performances of the Executive Board members, this in particular gives consideration to the economic position, the market environment, the success and the future prospects of the company. The Supervisory Board pays particular attention to assuring that the total target remuneration conforms with market standards. Market conformity is assessed on the basis of the following points:

External benchmarking (horizontal conformity): The market conformity of the total remuneration is assessed on the basis of remuneration data from the 90 largest companies in Germany with DAX and MDAX listings. This horizontal market benchmarking considers the market position, size and complexity of DMG MORI AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT with special emphasis on the position of the company within the comparison group (e.g., on the basis of performance indicators such as sales revenues, number of employees and earnings per share).

Internal benchmarking (vertical conformity): In addition to the above, the development of the Executive Board's remuneration in proportion to the remuneration of the employees of DMG MORI AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT is considered in an internal (vertical) benchmarking. This comparison determines the proportion of the Executive Board's remuneration to the remuneration paid to the upper management and other employees and subjected to a market comparison.

The determination of the total target remuneration gives special credit to the individual Executive Board member's function. This includes that the chairperson of the Executive Board is awarded a higher total remuneration than the other Executive Board members.

Malus and clawback provisions

The Supervisory Board may withhold or demand repayment of the short-term and the long-term variable remuneration in the case of serious breaches of duty or compliance infringements. The same applies in cases of serious unethical conduct.

In cases of grossly negligent or intentional breaches of a duty of care by a diligent business manager pursuant to Section 93 (1) of the German Stock Corporation Code (AktG) the company is further authorized to demand the Executive Board member repay all or part of the variable remuneration components (STI and/or LTI) paid for the relevant assessment period in which the breach of duty took place, or to withhold such payment before its remittance.

A claim for repayment also applies if the Executive Board member's office tenure or employment has already ended at the time repayment is demanded. Claims for damages against the Executive Board member remain unaffected.

Early resignation of Executive Board members

If an Executive Board member resigns upon request by the Supervisory Board due to reasons not attributable to the Executive Board member's person or conduct, all outstanding LTI tranches will be paid to the member at the end of the initially agreed performance period. The same applies if an Executive Board member resigns from the Executive Board for other reasons outside of his responsibility (e.g. regular expiry or mutually agreed termination of the employment contract, or other contractually recognized reasons for resignation). This also includes the transition into early retirement and the Executive Board member's rejection of an offer of reappointment.

If the company terminates an Executive Board member's employment for important reasons, or if the Executive Board member terminates his service agreement without proper cause ("bad leaver"), all outstanding LTI allocations of which the three-year reference period has not yet ended will be forfeited.

Components of the remuneration system

The remuneration of the Executive Board members of DMG MORI AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT consists of fixed and variable remuneration components. The fixed, non-performance-based remuneration consists of a base remuneration ("fixed amount"), fringe benefits and pension entitlements (in particular to the contribution-based retirement provisions). The short-term variable remuneration (STI) and the long-term variable remuneration (LTI) are performance-based variable amounts that depend on the achievement of concrete, measurable targets.

a) Fixed remuneration components

The fixed remuneration forms the basis for recruiting and retaining the highly qualified Executive Board members needed for the group's further development and implementation of the corporate strategy.

The fixed remuneration consists of the base remuneration, fringe benefits and pension entitlements (contribution-based retirement provisions).

Base remuneration: Each Executive Board member receives a fixed base remuneration. This is paid in twelve monthly installments.

Fringe benefits: Fringe benefits and their maximum amounts are determined for each Executive Board member. These fringe benefits include, in particular, non-cash benefits from the company and other fringe benefits, particularly the provision of a company car but also insurance coverage.

Retirement provisions: Each Executive Board member is granted a payment that must be used to add to his personal retirement provisions. The payment is for a certain amount to be invested in an external pension scheme (contributionbased retirement provision).

b) Short-term incentive (STI)

The STI is intended to motivate Executive Board members to achieve challenging and demanding financial, operational and strategic targets in the financial year. The targets reflect the corporate strategy and aim at increasing the earnings and market position of DMG MORI AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT. The one-year variable compensation is linked to the achievement of important key figures in the respective financial year, and in particular by tying it to the order intake and EBIT. An individual target amount is defined for each member of the Executive Board. The target amount is the starting point for determining the performance-related payment after the end of the assessment period. An entitlement to payment only arises at the end of the one-year assessment period and depends on whether or how the targets have been achieved.

The STI system is based on two target dimensions with different weightings that can be adjusted by so-called sustainability factors ("modifiers"). This considers both the market position (measured by the performance indicator "order intake"), as well as the earnings position (measured by the performance indicator "EBIT"). These company-specific targets are modified by a sustainability factor ("modifier"), which moves within a bandwidth from 80 % to 120 %. The sustainability factors are intended to reward the Executive Board's actions and successes that have made a contribution to sustainably securing the company's success.

The levels of target achievement for the STI 2022 result from the following key figures and factors for 2022 and are determined for all Executive Board members according to the same criteria:

Order intake is weighted 1/3. In this way, the STI considers one of the key financial figures of DMG MORI AKTIENGESELL-SCHAFT. The order intake component of the STI must reach a lower limit before it becomes bonus relevant. The lower limit is set at a target achievement of 50 %. Reaching the target amount corresponds to a target achievement of 100 %. The component does not increase further once a certain upper limit has been reached. This upper limit corresponds to a target achievement of 200 %.

The following figure shows further details with respect to target achievement:

The EBIT is weighted 2/3. In this way, the STI considers an additional key financial figure of DMG MORI AKTIENGESELL-SCHAFT. The EBIT component of the STI must reach a lower limit before becoming bonus relevant. This lower limit corresponds to a target achievement of 50 %. Reaching the target amount corresponds to a target achievement of 100 %. The component does not increase further once a certain upper limit has been reached. This upper limit corresponds to a target achievement of 200 %.

The following figure shows further details with respect to target achievement:

The remuneration resulting from the achievement of goals is adjusted by three sustainability factors ("modifiers") defined as part of the award (80 %-120 %). These goals, on which the sustainability factor is based, include investments in property, plant and equipment, investments for the GLOBE project (introduction of SAP) and the development of internal market shares and positions (ratio of incoming orders DMG MORI AG group and DMG MORI COMPANY LIMITED). All sustainability factors can reach a level of 80%–120%. The factors investments in tangible assets and investments for the GLOBE project are each weighted with 25 %, the factor development of internal market shares and positions is weighted with 50 %. This is intended to particularly strengthen the Management Board's efforts to achieve sustainable management geared towards future growth.

c) Long-term incentive (LTI)

The long-term-focused, sustainable initiative for the success of DMG MORI AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT is the focus of the Executive Board's work. It is the only way to promote sustainable growth and achieve a permanent increase in value. The three-year performance period contributes to assuring that the Executive Board's decisions in the current financial year are also focused on the company's long-term development.

The LTI program is paid in cash on the basis of performance indicator-based remuneration determined over an assessment period of three years ("performance period"). It is granted in the form of yearly tranches.

The LTI is based on two financial targets as well as measurable sustainability targets that are expressed in the form of a "modifier". The financial performance criteria represent important core management ratios of DMG MORI AKTIEN-GESELLSCHAFT (the earnings after tax – EAT – and the service performance). In addition to that, the modifier with a bandwidth of 80 % to 120 % also incorporates the sustainability targets.

An individual target amount is set for each member of the Executive Board. The target amount represents the starting point for determining the performance-based payment after the end of the assessment period. A claim for payment only arises at the end of the three-year assessment period and depends on whether and to what degree the targets were achieved.

The levels of target achievement result from the following key figures and factors and are determined for all Executive Board members according to the same criteria:

The EAT is weighted 2/3. In this way, the LTI considers one of the key financial figures of DMG MORI AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT. The EAT component of the LTI must reach a lower limit in order to become bonus relevant. This corresponds to a target achievement of 50 %. Reaching the target amount results in a target achievement of 100%. The component does not increase further once an upper limit has been reached. This corresponds to a target achievement of 200 %.

The following figure shows further details with respect to target achievement:

The service performance over a period of three years is weighted 1/3. In this way, the LTI considers an important key management figure of DMG MORI AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT. The service performance is the average number of service calls per machine under warranty over the last 12 months. The service performance component of the LTI must fall below a threshold value before becoming bonus relevant. This threshold value corresponds to a target achievement of 80 %. Reaching the target figure corresponds to a target achievement of 100%. The consideration ends at a set minimum value. This corresponds to a target achievement of 200 %.

The following figure shows further details with respect to target achievement:

The remuneration resulting from the degree of target achievement is adjusted (80 %-120 %) by two sustainability factors ("modifiers"), which are specified within the framework of the tender. The current sustainability targets include

adherence to the R&D and marketing budgets, as well as the development of the PPR indicator (number of "Product Problem Reports" in the last twelve months with status completed and final adjusted divided by the number of "Product Problem Reports" issued in the last twelve months). A "product problem report" describes a customer complaint. Both sustainability factors can reach a level of 80%–120% and are weighted 50 % each. To secure the long-term and sustainable development, the targets are selected in consideration of the strategy.

Target and maximum amounts of remuneration

The payment from STI and LTI is limited in each case to a total of 200 % of the target amount.

The maximum total remuneration of an Executive Board member is determined by the Supervisory Board on the basis of the target total remuneration and is the maximum amount of total remuneration for the respective financial year, taking into account the fixed remuneration, short-term variable remuneration (STI), long-term variable remuneration (LTI 2022–2024) and retirement provisions.

The maximum total remuneration for financial year 2022 was set at €5,550K for the Chairman of the Executive Board and €2,950K for the Executive Board members. (→ Table A.09)

Retirement provisions

The retirement provisions are a further basis for recruiting and retaining the highly qualified Executive Board members required for the group's continued development and implementation of the corporate strategy. The retirement provisions should be competitive on the market for highly qualified Executive Board members and provide an appropriate level of retirement benefits. The retirement provisions for the Executive Board members are paid in the form of a contribution-based pension scheme:

  • › Christian Thönes €450K p.a.
  • › Björn Biermann €200K p.a.
  • › Michael Horn €200K p.a.

Expenses for the contribution-based retirement provisions for the Executive Board members totaled €850K in financial year 2022 (previous year: €850K).

Remuneration for former members of the Executive Board In the reporting year, as part of direct pension obligations € 1,087 K (previous year: € 1,132 K) was paid to former members of the Executive Board and their surviving dependents, of which € 680 K went to Dr. Rüdiger Kapitza who left the Executive Board in 2016.

Remuneration of the Executive Board for financial year 2022

The target achievement for short-term variable remuneration (STI) is 166% for the key figure EBIT and 200% for the key figure order intake. The target achievement for the sustainability factor relating to the budget for investments in property, plant and equipment was 109 %, for the GLOBE project 120 % and for the relative market shares AG/CO 120%, resulting in a weighted modifier of 117% overall. The total target achievement for shortterm variable remuneration (STI) for the year 2022 is 208 %. The STI payment is limited to a total of 200 % of the target amount (cap).

Target achievement for the long-term remuneration component (LTI tranche 2020-2022) is 200 % for the EAT indicator (3-year average 2020-2022) and 200 % for the service performance indicator. The target achievement for the sustainability factor for adhering to the R&D and marketing budgets was 120% and for the development of the PPR indicator also 120 %, resulting in a weighted modifier of 120 % in total. The target achievement for the LTI tranche 2020–2022 is 220 %. The payout from the LTI tranche 2020–2022 is limited to a total of 200 % of the target amount (cap).

The total remuneration without advance payments of the Executive Board for financial year 2022 amounted to €9,753K (previous year: €7,118K). Of this amount, €2,461K (previous year: €2,228K) is attributable to the fixed, non-performancebased remuneration (base remuneration and fringe benefits), and €3,200K (previous year: €3,200K) to the short-term variable remuneration (STI) as well as €850K to contributionbased retirement provisions (previous year: €850K).

The LTI tranche 2020-2022, which was allocated on 31 December 2022 and will be paid in 2023, results in a total amount of €4,750K (LTI 2019-2021: €840K). An advance payment of €1,508K was made in 2021 for the LTI tranche 2020-2022. The payment from the LTI tranche 2020-2022 amounts to €3,242K.

The purpose of DMG MORI's research and development is to sustainably increase the value of our products for our customers. With the machine at the center, we are consistently developing further from a machine manufacturer to a holistic, sustainable solution provider in the manufacturing environment. Our strategic fit of automation, digitization and sustainability is paying off. In the reporting year, we presented 23 innovations together with DMG MORI COMPANY LIMITED – thereof 3 world premieres, 6 automation solutions as well as 12 digital innovations including 8 technology cycles and 2 DMG MORI Components.

We expanded our now 157 different machine models with 3 world premieres in the reporting year:

  • › NTX 500 the latest and most compact model in the successful Turn & Mill series, with a footprint of less than 7m2 and the new compactMASTER spindle, is the ideal solution for demanding industries such as medical technology.
  • › DMU / DMC 85 H monoBLOCK the new, versatilely automatable universal horizontal machining center expands the innovative series and is aimed in particular at users in the main sectors of aerospace, die & mold and semiconductor. The machine combines the flexibility and ergonomics of a 5-axis universal machining center with the productivity and process reliability of a horizontal machining center.
  • › LASERTEC 100/160 PowerDrill the machine for 5-axis laser precision drilling offers 40 % higher dynamics and a 42 % larger working area with a smaller footprint compared to its predecessor. For example, components from the sectors aerospace and energy can be equipped highly efficiently and automatically with cooling air ducts.
  • › Automation is the key to more efficiency, more productivity, even faster amortization – and thus to greater competitiveness

and sustainability for our customers. In addition to our broad machine portfolio, DMG MORI is also a full-liner in automation. Our innovative and comprehensive automation portfolio with 57 products in 13 product lines includes machine-specific, universal and scalable solutions up to the DMG MORI CELL CONTROLLER LPS 4 for workpiece, pallet and tool management. New additions in the reporting

  • › Robo2Go Max: now also for workpieces up to 115 kg. Quick and easy control via CELOS – without programming knowledge. This makes the Robo2Go the ideal and flexible solution also for heavy components for small and medium batch sizes.
  • › MATRIS Light: The highly flexible and compact cobot for workpieces up to 5kg can be connected in less than 5 minutes, operated intuitively and does not require a safety fence.
  • › PH 50: The cost-effective entry into pallet handling on
  • › PH Cell Twin: The compact and modular round storage system for pallets is based on the proven PH Cell 300, is easy to retrofit and simultaneously automates two machines – a particularly efficient and economical solution for up to 30 pallets.
  • › PH Cell 2000: The solution for handling up to 2,000 kg on 21 pallets each – variably adaptable thanks to standardized modules.
  • › CTS (Central Tool Storage): The central tool magazine is based on our proven concept of tool wheel magazines to store and manage up to 1,440 tools independently of the machine. Combined with our driverless transport system for tools – TH-AGV – or a portal tool shuttle, different machines can thus be supplied with tools from a central location.
