Pay and ownership Proxy statement filed 24 April 2026

Chief executive’s pay

Year Total pay Actually paid $100 invested
2025 37.33m 88.60m 115.00
2024 5.14m 1.18m 52.00
2023 4.02m 7.70m 67.00

Ownership

Directors and executive officers, together 3.10%

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. Read the proxy statement
