The charts below reflect the relationship of CAP to our CEO and other NEOs in each of 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 to (1) TSR of both Chipotle (“CMG”) and the S&P 500 Restaurants Index, (2) CMG net income and (3) CMG RCF Dollars.
CAP, as required under SEC rules, reflects adjusted values to unvested and vested equity awards during the years shown in the table based on year-end stock prices, various accounting valuation assumptions and projected performance modifiers, but does not reflect actual amounts paid out for those awards. CAP generally fluctuates due to stock price achievement and varying levels of projected and actual achievement of performance goals for outstanding PSU grants. For a discussion of how our Compensation, People and Culture Committee assessed Chipotle’s performance and our NEOs pay each year, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” in this proxy statement and in our proxy statements for 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2020.
