Pay and ownership Proxy statement filed 11 August 2026
Chief executive’s pay
| Year | Total pay | Actually paid | $100 invested |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 13.68m | 5.38m | 44.88 |
| 2025 | 13.12m | (2.27m) | 69.74 |
| 2024 | 24.02m | 7.31m | 89.57 |
| 2023 | 18.72m | 31.19m | 98.36 |
| 2022 | 11.95m | (896.94k) | 90.24 |
Total pay is as the Summary Compensation Table states it; actually paid revalues the year’s share awards
at its end, as the SEC’s pay-versus-performance rule asks. $100 invested is what $100 in the company’s
shares at the start of the earliest year shown was worth at each year’s end.
