Relationship between Compensation Actually Paid and Financial Performance Measures
Relationship between Compensation Actually Paid and Financial Performance Measures
In accordance with recent SEC rules, the following table and accompanying discussion and charts provide information on the relationship between the “compensation actually paid” to our PEO and our other NEOs (calculated in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K) and certain measures of the Company’s financial performance, including Total Shareholder Return, Net Income and a Company-Selected Metric that is most important to the determination of executive compensation (in the Company’s case, Adjusted Pretax Income).
The compensation actually paid (“CAP”) set forth in the table below does not reflect amounts actually realized by our NEOs, and the HR Compensation Committee did not consider CAP when making compensation decisions for any of the years presented. Reflects total shareholder return (“TSR”) calculated in the manner required by Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K and reflects the cumulative value of $100, including the reinvestment of dividends, if such amount were invested on September 30, 2020.Reflects consolidated net income calculated in accordance with GAAP for each of the fiscal years shown.
Reflects Adjusted Pretax Income for each of the years shown. Adjusted Pretax Income is calculated as income from continuing operations before income taxes, stock compensation expense and restructuring charges, less gains or losses on the disposition of a business, adjusted, in the sole discretion of the HR Compensation Committee, to reflect extraordinary items during the fiscal year.
