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.
Ownership is the proxy’s own table: the directors and officers as a group, and every holder of 5% or more.

Graco makes equipment that moves, measures, mixes, controls, dispenses and sprays fluids and powders. Its products help customers apply materials such as paint, sealants and adhesives, or move substances such as chemicals and food through a process. Some equipment handles materials that are thick, abrasive or corrosive, while other systems combine multiple materials in precise proportions.
The company sells to customers in manufacturing, processing, construction and maintenance. A professional painter might use a Graco sprayer to coat a building, while a factory might use its equipment to apply adhesives during vehicle assembly. Graco also makes equipment for applications such as powder coating, vehicle servicing, semiconductor production and environmental monitoring.
