Pay and ownership Proxy statement filed 16 May 2025
Chief executive’s pay
| Year | Total pay | Actually paid | $100 invested |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 5.19m | 7.07m | 106.00 |
| 2024 | 4.25m | (911.96k) | 73.00 |
| 2023 | 3.71m | 3.56m | 121.00 |
| 2022 | 8.77m | 9.02m | 160.00 |
| 2021 | 2.80m | 4.04m | 99.00 |
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.
