Named Executive Officers, Footnote
We are required by SEC rules to disclose the following information regarding compensation paid to our NEOs over the current and certain past years. The amounts set forth below under the headings "Compensation Actually Paid to Jeremy Wacksman (PEO)," "Compensation Actually Paid to Richard N. Barton (PEO)" and "Average Compensation Actually Paid to Non-PEO NEOs" have been calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. For purposes of this section, "Principal Executive Officer" or "PEO" refers to both Jeremy Wacksman, our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) effective August 7, 2024, and Richard N. Barton, our CEO for the periods presented in this section until August 7, 2024. Non-PEO NEOs refers to our other NEOs as described in the footnotes below.

The following table sets forth additional compensation information of our PEO and our other NEOs along with total shareholder return and net income (loss) for the fiscal years 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025. Neither the Board nor the compensation committee considers any specific financial measures in making compensation decisions for our NEOs, so we have not included a column regarding a "Company-Selected Measure" as defined by SEC rules.
Reflects compensation amounts reported in the Summary Compensation Table for our CEOs in the respective years shown.
The following non-PEO named executive officers are included in the average figures shown:
2025: Jeremy Hofmann, Richard N. Barton, Lloyd D. Frink, Jun Choo

The comparison assumes $100 was invested for the period starting December 31, 2020, through December 31 of the applicable fiscal year in each of the Company’s Class A common stock and Class C capital stock and the Peer Group TSR. The historical stock price performance of our Class A common stock and Class C capital stock shown is not necessarily indicative of future stock price performance.

Time-vested restricted stock unit grant date fair values are calculated using the stock price as of the grant date. Adjustments have been made using the stock price as of year end and as of each date of vest, as applicable.The 2022 amounts in the table include the impact of a true-up of the value of already vested and outstanding stock options due to a reprice of the options effectuated by the Company on August 8, 2022.
