Pay and ownership Proxy statement filed 28 January 2026
Chief executive’s pay
| Year | Total pay | Actually paid | $100 invested |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2.12m | 1.43m | 61.82 |
| 2024 | 2.44m | 1.72m | 78.85 |
| 2023 | 2.12m | 1.87m | 94.11 |
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.
