Pay Versus Performance

 

This section provides a detailed analysis of the Compensation Actually Paid (“CAP”) (as calculated by the SEC rules) to the Company’s executive officers listed below as compared with the performance of the Company and our peer group.

 

As discussed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section above, our Compensation Committee has implemented an executive compensation program designed to link a substantial portion of our NEOs’ compensation to the achievement of the Company’s financial and strategic objectives, and to align our executive pay with changes in the value of our shareholders’ investments. The following table shows the CAP to our Principal Executive Officer (“PEO” or “CEO”) for each of fiscal years 2021 through 2025 and the average CAP to our non-PEO NEOs for each fiscal year as compared with the performance of the Company as measured by the total shareholder return (“TSR”), net income (loss), and Adjusted EBITDA and the performance of our peer group’s TSR. The dollar values shown for CAP in the table below do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned or paid during the applicable year.
