QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

Q:

Q:

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

A:

Holders of IRADIMED common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), at the close of business on April 22, 2024, the record date for the Annual Meeting (the “Record Date”) established by our board of directors (the “Board” or the “Board of Directors”), are entitled to receive notice of the Annual Meeting (the “Meeting Notice”), and to vote their shares at the Annual Meeting and any related adjournments or postponements. The Meeting Notice, Proxy Statement, the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “2023 Annual Report”), and form of proxy are expected to be mailed to stockholders and available at www.iradimed.com and at www.proxyvote.com on or about May 6, 2024.

As of the close of business on the Record Date, there were 12,664,185 shares of our Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Holders of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share at the Annual Meeting. Holders of the Common Stock are collectively referred to herein as the Company’s “stockholders.” At the Annual Meeting, there are a total of 12,664,185 possible votes with respect to the outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote at the Meeting.

Q:

Who can attend the Annual Meeting?

A:

Admission to the Annual Meeting is limited to:

stockholders as of the close of business on the Record Date, April 22, 2024;
holders of valid proxies for the Annual Meeting; and
our invited guests.

Each stockholder may be asked to present valid picture identification such as a driver’s license or passport and proof of stock ownership as of the Record Date.

Q:

Can I vote my shares by filling out and returning the Meeting Notice?

A:

No. The Meeting Notice identifies the items to be voted on at the Annual Meeting, but you cannot vote by marking the Meeting Notice and returning it.

Q:

Is there electronic access to the proxy materials and Annual Report?

A:

Yes. The materials will be available, as of the date they were first mailed to our stockholders, at www.iradimed.com and at www.proxyvote.com.


Q:

What is the difference between a stockholder of record and a stockholder who holds stock in street name?

A:

If your shares are registered in your name as evidenced and recorded in the stock ledger maintained by the Company and our transfer agent, you are a stockholder of record. If your shares are held in the name of your broker, bank or another nominee, these shares are held in “street name.”

If you are a stockholder of record and you have requested printed proxy materials, we have enclosed a proxy card for you to use. If you hold your shares in street name through one or more banks, brokers, or other nominees, you will receive the Meeting Notice, together with voting instructions, from the third party or parties through which you hold your shares. If you requested printed proxy materials, your broker, bank, or other nominee has enclosed a voting instruction card for you to use in directing the broker, bank, or another nominee regarding how to vote your shares.

Q:

What are the quorum requirements for the Annual Meeting?

A:

The presence in person or by proxy of a majority in voting interest of the shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting constitutes a quorum. Your shares of Common Stock will be counted as present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum if a proxy card has been properly submitted by you or on your behalf, or if you vote in person at the Annual Meeting. Abstaining votes and broker non-votes are counted for the purposes of establishing a quorum.

Q:

What matters will the stockholders vote on at the Annual Meeting?

A:

The stockholders will vote on the following proposals:

Proposal 1. Election of Directors. To elect five members of our Board, each to hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until his successor is duly elected and shall qualify, or until his earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal, including Roger Susi, our President and Chief Executive Officer, who, if so elected, will be appointed by the Board to serve as Chairman of the Board, Monty Allen, Anthony Vuoto, Hilda Scharen-Guivel, and James Hawkins.
Proposal 2. Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. To ratify the appointment of RSM US LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.
Proposal 3. Non-Binding Advisory Vote to Approve the Fiscal 2023 Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers. To approve a non-binding advisory resolution on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as reported in this Proxy Statement, commonly referred to as a “say-on-pay” resolution.

Q:

What vote is required to approve these proposals?

A:

Provided a quorum is present, the following are the voting requirements for each proposal:

Proposal 1. Election of Directors. Each of the five nominees who receive the greater number of votes, up to the number of directors then to be elected, shall be the persons then elected.
Proposal 2. Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, RSM US LLP, will be ratified upon the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Common Stock having voting power present in person or represented by proxy.
Proposal 3. Approval of Advisory Approval of the Fiscal 2023 Named Executive Officer Compensation. The advisory vote to approve the proposal on the fiscal 2023 compensation of the Company’s named executive officers is advisory in nature and has no binding effect on us or our Board. Although the vote is non-binding, our Board will review the voting results in connection with the evaluation of the Company’s compensation program. The affirmative vote of a majority of the Common Stock having voting power present in person or represented by proxy is required to approve Proposal 3.

“FOR” each of the five directors nominated by our Board as directors, each to hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until his successor is duly elected and shall qualify, or until his earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal;
FOR” the ratification of RSM US LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024; and
FOR” the approval of the non-binding advisory resolution on named executive officer fiscal 2023 compensation;

Q:

How do I vote?

A:

You may vote by any of the following methods:

In person. Stockholders of record and beneficial stockholders with shares held in street name may vote in person at the Annual Meeting. If you hold shares in street name, you must obtain a proxy from the stockholder of record authorizing you to vote your shares and bring it to the meeting along with proof of beneficial ownership of your shares. A photo I.D. is required to vote in person.
By mail. If you elected to receive printed proxy materials by mail, you may vote by signing and returning the proxy card provided. Please allow sufficient time for mailing if you decide to vote by mail.
By Internet or telephone. Stockholders who hold their shares beneficially in street name through a nominee (such as a bank or broker) may be able to vote by telephone, the internet, or mail. You should follow the instructions you receive from your nominee to vote for those shares. If you are a stockholder who owns shares

through a nominee and attends the Annual Meeting, you should bring a letter from your nominee identifying you as the beneficial owner of the shares and acknowledging that you will vote your shares.

Q:

How can I change or revoke my vote?

A:

You may change your vote as follows:

Stockholders of record. You may change or revoke your vote by submitting a written notice of revocation to IRADIMED CORPORATION, 1025 Willa Springs Drive, Winter Springs, FL 32708, Attention: John Glenn, Corporate Secretary, or by submitting another proxy card before the conclusion of the Annual Meeting. For all methods of voting, the last vote cast will supersede all previous votes.
Beneficial owners of shares held in “street name.”  You may change or revoke your voting instructions by following the specific directions provided to you by your bank, broker, or another nominee.

Q:

What if I do not specify a choice for a matter when returning a proxy?

A:

Your proxy will be treated as follows:

Stockholders of record. If you are a stockholder of record and you sign and return a proxy card without giving specific voting instructions, then the proxy holders will vote your shares in the manner recommended by the Board on all matters presented in this Proxy Statement and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion for any other matters properly presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting.
Beneficial owners of shares held in “street name.” If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and do not provide the organization that holds your shares with specific voting instructions, the organization that holds your shares may generally vote on routine matters but cannot vote on non-routine matters. If the organization that holds your shares does not receive instructions from you on how to vote your shares on a non-routine matter, the organization that holds your shares will inform the inspector of elections that it does not have the authority to vote on this matter with respect to your shares. This is referred to as a “broker non-vote.”

Q:

Which ballot measures are considered “routine” or “non-routine”?

A:

The election of directors (“Proposal 1”), and the approval of the advisory resolution on named executive officer fiscal 2023 compensation (“Proposal 3”) are considered to be non-routine matters under applicable rules. The confirmation of RSM US LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 (“Proposal 2”) is considered a routine matter. A broker or other nominee cannot vote without instructions on non-routine matters, and therefore there may be broker non-votes on Proposal 1, and Proposal 3.

Q:

Could other matters be decided at the Annual Meeting?

A:

As of the date of the filing of this Proxy Statement, we were not aware of any matters to be raised at the Annual Meeting other than those referred to in this Proxy Statement. If other matters are properly presented at the Annual Meeting for consideration, the proxy holders for the Annual Meeting will have the discretion to vote on those matters for stockholders who have submitted a proxy card.

Q:

How are proxies solicited and what is the cost?

A:

We will incur and bear all expenses connected with the solicitation of proxies. In addition to solicitation by mail, our directors, officers, and employees may solicit proxies from stockholders by email, telephone, letter, facsimile, or in person. Following the original mailing of the Meeting Notice, we will request brokers, custodians, nominees and other record holders to forward their own notice and, upon request, to forward copies of the proxy statement and related soliciting materials to persons for whom they hold shares of our capital stock and to request authority for the exercise of proxies. In such cases, upon the request of the record holders, we will reimburse such holders for their reasonable expenses. We do not intend to engage a proxy solicitation firm to assist us in soliciting proxies.


Q:

What are the implications of being a “smaller reporting company?”

A:

We are a “smaller reporting company,” as that term is defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). As a smaller reporting company, we are permitted to provide in this Proxy Statement scaled disclosures. Under such scaled disclosures, we are not required to provide a Compensation Discussion and Analysis, Compensation Committee Report, and certain tabular and narrative disclosures relating to executive compensation.

Q:

What should I do if I have questions regarding the Annual Meeting?

A:

If you have any questions about the Annual Meeting, would like to obtain directions to be able to attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person, or would like additional copies of any of the documents referred to in this Proxy Statement, you should call us at (407) 677-8022.

We do not require our Chairman of the Board to be an independent director. Currently, Mr. Susi serves as the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. With Mr. Susi’s deep knowledge of our industry, products and responsibility for the Company’s day-to-day leadership and performance, the Board believes this leadership structure is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders. We believe this leadership structure is most appropriate for us because we believe having the Chief

Executive Officer serve as Chairman of the Board fosters an alignment of various Company leadership duties.

Additionally, the Company believes that having the person most familiar with all aspects of day-to-day operations lead the Board enhances accountability and effectiveness.

Iradimed does not have a formal policy with respect to the separation or combination of the offices of Chairman

of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. Rather, the Board has the discretion to combine or separate these roles as it


deems appropriate from time to time, which provides the Board with necessary flexibility to adjust to changed circumstances. We recognize that different leadership structures may be appropriate for companies in different situations and believe that no one structure is suitable for all companies. Accordingly, the Board will continue to periodically review our leadership structure and make such changes in the future as it deems appropriate and in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders.

Board Role in Risk Oversight. One of the key functions of our Board is informed oversight of our risk management process. Our Board does not have a standing risk management committee but rather administers this oversight function directly through our Board as a whole, as well as through two standing Board committees (Audit and Compensation) that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. In particular, our Board is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic and medical regulatory risk exposures, including cybersecurity risks, and our audit committee has the responsibility to consider and discuss our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures. The audit committee also has the responsibility to issue guidelines and policies to govern the process by which financial accounting and reporting risk assessment and management is undertaken, monitor compliance with related legal and regulatory requirements, and oversee the performance of our internal audit function. Our compensation committee assesses and monitors whether any of our compensation policies and programs have the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking.

Director Independence. The Board makes an affirmative determination that those members of its Board that serve as independent directors do not have any relationships with the Company and its businesses that would impair their independence. In connection with these determinations, the Board reviews information regarding transactions, relationships and arrangements involving the Company and its businesses and each director that it deems relevant to independence. We deem that Mr. Susi is not independent as that term is defined by NASDAQ 5605(a)(2) because Mr. Susi serves as our President and Chief Executive Officer. We deem that Monty Allen, Anthony Vuoto, and Hilda Scharen-Guivel are independent as that term is defined by NASDAQ 5605(a)(2). Mr. Hawkins is not an independent director due to a familial relationship with an Executive Officer.

Director Nominations. Our Board does not have a standing nominating committee because the Board believes the functions of a nominating committee are adequately addressed by our process for the nomination of director candidates. Director candidates are considered based upon a variety of criteria, including demonstrated business and professional skills, experience relevant to our business and strategic direction, concern for long-term stockholder interests, personal integrity, and sound business judgment. The Board seeks individuals from backgrounds of relevant industry and strategic experience that, in concert, offer us and our stockholders varied opinions and insights in the areas most important to us and our corporate mission. We do not have a formal policy concerning the diversity of the Board. All director candidates must have time available to devote to the activities of the Board. We also consider the independence of director candidates, including the appearance of any conflict in serving as a director. A director who does not meet all of these criteria may still be considered for nomination to the Board, if our independent directors believe that the candidate will make an exceptional contribution to us and our stockholders. The independent directors of the Board then vote, in a vote in which only they participate, to select nominees to recommend to the Board.

Our Board Diversity Matrix, as of April 28, 2023, can be found in the definitive proxy statement for our 2023 annual meeting of shareholders, filed with the SEC on April 28, 2023.

Generally, when evaluating and recommending candidates for election to the Board, the Board will conduct candidate interviews, evaluate biographical information, and background material and assess the skills and experience of candidates in the context of the then current needs of the Company. In identifying candidates, the Board may also seek input from our executive officers and consider recommendations by employees, business and industry contacts, third-party search firms and any other sources deemed appropriate by such directors. The Board will also consider director candidates recommended by stockholders to stand for election at an annual meeting of stockholders so long as such recommendations are submitted in accordance with the procedures described in our bylaws and set forth below under “Stockholder Recommendations for Board Candidates.”

Executive Sessions. Non-management directors meet regularly in scheduled executive sessions without our management. Non-management directors are those directors who are not also our executive officers and include directors, if any, who are not independent by virtue of the existence of a material relationship with our company. Executive sessions are led by our Audit Committee chairman. An executive session is sometimes held in conjunction with regularly scheduled Audit Committee meetings and other sessions may be called by the Audit Committee chairman in his own discretion or at the request of the Board of Directors.

The Board and Board Committees

The Board. The Board met six times during 2023, five of which were regularly scheduled meetings and one special meeting. During 2023, Messrs. Susi, Allen, Vuoto, Hawkins and Ms. Sharen-Guivel attended 100% of the Board meetings. Directors are not required to attend annual meetings of our stockholders; however, Messrs. Susi, Allen, and Ms. Scharen-Guivel attended the 2023 annual meeting.

Board Committees. Our Board includes an Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee. Our Audit and Compensation Committees are comprised of independent board members. The Audit Committee held ten meetings during 2023, all of which were regularly scheduled meetings. The Compensation Committee held six meetings during 2023, all of which were regularly scheduled meetings.

Audit Committee. Our Audit Committee currently consists of Mr. Allen, who is the chair of the Committee, Mr. Vuoto, and Ms. Scharen-Guivel. Mr. Allen, Mr. Vuoto, and Ms. Scharen-Guivel have been determined by our Board to be independent in accordance with NASDAQ and SEC standards. Mr. Allen is an “audit committee financial expert” as the term is defined under the SEC regulations. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter, which is available in the Governance section of the Investors page on our website, which is located at www.iradimed.com. The functions of the Audit Committee include:

overseeing our evaluation and engagement of independent registered public accountants;
reviewing our audited financial statements and discussing them with the independent registered public accountants and our management;
overseeing our material risks from cybersecurity threats, management’s process to monitor, detect, mitigate, and remediate cybersecurity incidents, and the Company’s disclosure of any cybersecurity incident deemed material as required by the SEC or any other governmental authority, as applicable;
meeting with the independent registered public accountants, our management, and internal auditors to consider the adequacy and effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting; and
reviewing our financial plans, reporting recommendations to our full Board for approval, and authorizing actions.

Both our independent registered accounting firm and internal financial personnel may meet with our Audit Committee and have unrestricted access to the Audit Committee.

Compensation Committee. Our Compensation Committee currently consists of Mr. Vuoto, who is chairman of the committee, Mr. Allen, and Ms. Scharen-Guivel. Mr. Vuoto, Mr. Allen, and Ms. Scharen-Guivel have been determined by our Board to be independent in accordance with NASDAQ and SEC standards. The Compensation


Committee operates under a written charter, which is available in the Governance section of the Investors page on our website, which is located at www.iradimed.com. The information contained on our website is not incorporated by reference in, or considered to be a part of, this Proxy Statement. The functions of the Compensation Committee include:

reviewing and, if deemed appropriate, recommending to our Board policies, practices, and procedures relating to the compensation of our directors, officers, and other managerial employees and the establishment and administration of our employee benefit plans;
determining or recommending to the Board the compensation of our executive officers; and
advising and consulting with our officers regarding managerial personnel and development.

Roles of Compensation Consultants in Determining Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee has the authority to engage its own compensation consultants and other independent advisors to assist in designing and administering our executive compensation programs. The Compensation Committee generally does not, and in 2023 did not, directly engage a third-party executive compensation consultant.

Stockholder Recommendations for Board Candidates

The Board will consider qualified candidates for directors recommended and submitted by stockholders. Submissions that meet the then-current criteria for board membership are forwarded to the Board for further review and consideration. The Board will consider a recommendation only if the informational and other requirements set forth in our bylaws are met. The Board will evaluate any such candidates by following substantially the same process and applying substantially the same criteria, as for candidates submitted by Board members. To submit a recommendation for a nomination, a stockholder must write to the Company’s Corporate Secretary, at our principal office, Attention: John Glenn, Corporate Secretary.

Stockholder Communications with the Board

Stockholders may, at any time, communicate with any of our directors by mailing a written communication to IRADIMED CORPORATION, 1025 Willa Springs Drive, Winter Springs, FL 32708, Attention: John Glenn, Corporate Secretary. The mailing envelope must contain a clear notation indicating that the enclosed letter is a “Stockholder-Board Communication” or “Stockholder-Director Communication.” All such letters must identify the author as a stockholder, provide evidence of the sender’s stock ownership and clearly state whether the intended recipients are all members of the Board or a particular director or directors. The Corporate Secretary will then forward such correspondence, without editing or alteration, to the Board or to the specified director(s) on or prior to the next scheduled meeting of the Board. The Board will determine the method by which such submissions will be reviewed and considered. The Board may also request the submitting stockholder to furnish additional information it may reasonably require or deem necessary to sufficiently review and consider the submission of such stockholder.

Corporate Responsibility

Code of Ethics and Conduct.

Our Board adopted a code of business ethics and conduct (the “Code of Ethics”), applicable to all of our officers, directors, and employees. The Code of Ethics is available in print to any stockholder that requests a copy. Copies may be obtained by contacting Investor Relations at our corporate headquarters. Our Code of Ethics is also available on our website at www.iradimed.com. We intend to post on our website at www.iradimed.com, any amendments to, or waivers from, its Code of Ethics for the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions.

Anti-Hedging Policy.

Our Board adopted an Insider Trading Policy, applicable to all of our executives, directors, and employees. The policy prohibits our executives, directors, and employees from purchasing certain financial instruments, such as collars and forward contracts or engaging in other transactions that hedge or offset or are designed to hedge or offset, any decrease in the market value of our securities. All such transactions involving our equity securities, whether such securities were granted as compensation or are otherwise held, directly or indirectly, are prohibited.


Clawback Policy.

The Company maintains a policy required by the rules of NASDAQ and the SEC providing that, subject to certain exemptions provided by the rules of NASDAQ and the SEC, in the event that the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement, it will attempt to recover incentive based-compensation received by any current or former executive officer that was based upon the attainment of a financial reporting measure that was erroneously awarded during the three-year period preceding the date that the restatement was required.

EXECUTIVE AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Our compensation philosophy is to offer our executive officers compensation and benefits that are competitive and meet our goals of attracting, retaining, and motivating highly skilled management, which is necessary to achieve our financial and strategic objectives and create long-term value for our stockholders. We believe the levels of compensation we provide should be competitive, reasonable, and appropriate for our business needs and circumstances.

The Company is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Item 10 of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act, and has elected to provide executive compensation information pursuant to the scaled disclosure rules applicable to “smaller reporting companies” under the rules of the SEC. Under such scaled disclosures, we are not required to provide a Compensation Discussion and Analysis, Compensation Committee Report, and certain tabular and narrative disclosures relating to executive compensation.

2023 Financial and Performance Highlights

Our financial and performance highlights during 2023 include the following:

Gross revenue of $65.6 million.
General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023, were $15.1 million, including stock-based compensation expenses of $1.2 million.
Research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023, were $2.9 million, including stock-based compensation expenses of $0.2 million.

Free cash flow of $5.5 million, after approximately $8 million of capital expenditures in the period for capacity expansion.

Compensation Philosophy and Practices

To achieve our goals, we have designed, and intend to modify as necessary, our compensation and benefits programs to attract, retain, incentivize and reward highly talented and qualified executives who share our views on innovation and a desire to work towards achieving set goals. We believe our compensation programs should promote the success of our Company and align executive incentives with the long-term interests of our stockholders. This section provides an overview of our executive compensation programs, including a narrative description of the material factors necessary to understand the information disclosed in the summary compensation table below.

Individual Compensation Elements

During 2023, the principal elements of our executive compensation program were as follows:

Base Salaries. We use base salaries to recognize the experience, skills, knowledge and responsibilities required of all our employees, including our named executive officers. Base salaries are reviewed annually, typically in connection with our annual performance review process, and adjusted from time to time after taking into account individual responsibilities, performance and experience. For 2023, Mr. Susi earned an annual base salary of $289,931 through January


29, 2023, which was increased to $310,000 commencing January 30, 2023. For 2023, Mr. Glenn earned an annual base salary of $340,000 through January 29, 2023, which was increased to $352,000 commencing January 30, 2023. For 2023, Mr. Waddell earned an annual base salary of $255,000 through January 29, 2023, which was increased to $270,000 commencing January 30, 2023.

Annual Cash Incentive Bonuses. We pay cash bonuses to reward our executives for their performance over the fiscal year, based on an analysis by our Board or our Compensation Committee of our company performance and each executives’ performance during the year. During 2023, Mr. Susi’s annual bonus target was equal to 100% of his annual base salary, Mr. Glenn’s annual bonus target was equal to 50% of his annual base salary, Mr. Waddell’ annual bonus target was equal to 50% of his annual base salary. In the first quarter of 2023, our Board adopted corporate performance goals for the 2023 bonus program for our executives based on a combination of individual performance, set at 20 percent of total achievable bonus, and corporate performance set at 80 percentage of total achievable bonus.  Revenue and operating metrics, based on our board approved annual operating forecast, are utilized to calculate achievement of corporate performance.  

At the end of fiscal 2023, our Compensation Committee determined that the total attainment rate for performance under the 2023 annual cash incentive bonus was 105%. For 2023, Mr. Susi received a $325,460 bonus, Mr. Glenn received a $184,778 bonus, and Mr. Waddell received a $141,733 bonus. The bonus amounts for Mr. Susi, Mr. Glenn, and Mr. Waddell were determined based on the base salary earned by each executive officer multiplied by their bonus target percentage and the 105% achievement level.

Long-Term Equity Incentives. We believe equity awards are a critical element of our executive compensation programs as they provide an incentive for our executives to focus on driving growth in our stock price and long-term stockholder value creation and help us to attract and retain key talent in a competitive market.

In fiscal 2023, these equity awards consisted of time-based restricted stock units (RSU)s and performance-based stock units (PSUs). We believe that RSUs offer predictable value delivery and promote retention of our executive officers while aligning their interests with the long-term interests of our stockholders in a manner consistent with competitive market practices. We believe that the fiscal 2023 PSUs directly link a significant portion of our executive officers’ target total direct compensation to our stock price performance. Together, RSUs and PSUs are important tools to motivate and retain our highly valuable executive officers, since the value of the awards is delivered to our executive officers over multi-year periods, subject to their continued service. We may modify our equity award program from one fiscal year to the next, including performance targets, for our executive officers, including our NEOs, to continue to maintain a strong alignment of their interests with the interests of our stockholders.

In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Compensation Committee granted RSUs and PSUs to each Messrs. Glenn and Waddell. The RSUs granted to our named executive officers in fiscal 2023 will vest 100 percent on the third anniversary of the grant date. Payout of the PSUs for the performance measurement period ending December 7, 2026, will be based on the Company’s total shareholder return compared to the NASDAQ US Small Cap Medical Equipment index. For purposes of the PSU award, total shareholder return is calculated as the share price at the end of the performance period, including the reinvestment of dividends during the performance period, as compared to the share price at the beginning of the performance period. The share payout range will be between 0 percent and 200 percent, depending on the Company’s performance against the index.

Other Elements of Compensation

Perquisites, Health, Welfare and Retirement Benefits. Our executive officers, during their employment with us, are eligible to participate in our employee benefit plans, including our medical and dental insurance plans, in each case on the same basis as all of our other employees. We generally do not provide perquisites or personal benefits to our named executive officers, except in limited circumstances. We do, however, cover a certain portion of the premiums for medical and dental insurance for all of our employees, including our named executive officers and may pay out unused paid time off.. Our Board may elect to adopt qualified or nonqualified benefit plans in the future if it determines that doing so is in our best interests.


401(k) Plan. We currently maintain a 401(k)-retirement savings plan for our employees, including our named executive officers, who satisfy certain eligibility requirements. The 401(k) plan is intended to qualify as a tax qualified plan under the Internal Revenue Code. Our named executive officers are eligible to participate in the 401(k) plan on the same basis as our other employees. The Internal Revenue Code allows eligible employees to defer a portion of their compensation, within prescribed limits, on a pre-tax basis (or post-tax basis through a Roth 401(k) election) through contributions to the 401(k) plan. Under our 401(k) plan during the year ended December 31, 2023, we provided matching contributions of 100% on the first 3% of an employee’s contribution and 50% on the next 2% contributed by the employee.

Pension Benefits. Our named executive officers did not participate in, or otherwise receive any benefits under, any pension or retirement plan sponsored by us during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation. Our named executive officers did not participate in, or earn any benefits under, any nonqualified deferred compensation plan sponsored by us during the year ended December 31, 2023.

No Tax Gross-Ups. In 2023, we did not make gross-up payments to cover our named executive officers’ personal income taxes that pertained to any of the compensation, perquisites or personal benefits paid or provided by us. Currently, we have no agreements or arrangements in place with any executive officer that require or provide for a tax gross-up or similar payment. We also do not intend to enter into any future employment or other agreement or arrangement with any of our executive offices that includes a tax gross-up.

Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table

Roger Susi

In July 2019, we entered into an employment agreement with Roger Susi in connection with Mr. Susi’s appointment as Chief Technology Officer. The agreement provides for a base annual salary of $289,931, eligibility for annual bonuses with a targeted value of 75% of his then prevailing annual salary based upon discretion of the Board of Directors and overall profitability of the Company, and eligibility for standard employee benefits. Mr. Susi’s base annual salary under the employment agreement is currently $310,000. The agreement continues until terminated by us or by Mr. Susi in accordance with the terms of the agreement. If Mr. Susi is terminated by us without cause or he terminates his employment with us for good reason, each as defined under the agreement, we must pay him an amount equal to 12 months base salary. In the event that we are involved in a change of control transaction, which generally means the transfer of ownership of more than 50% of our shares, and Mr. Susi terminates his employment with us for good reason, we must pay him an amount equal to three times his then current annual salary. The employment agreement also contains non-solicitation, non-compete, and confidentiality provisions and an employee innovation and proprietary information assignment to us by Mr. Susi of any of his inventions or innovations.

The employment agreement provided for an annual salary of $250,000 per year and he is eligible for an annual cash bonus targeted at 50% of his salary and annual equity awards pursuant to the Company’s annual incentive plan, with a targeted value of $125,000, which may be adjusted based on Mr. Waddell’s performance against goals established by the CEO and Board of Directors. After taking into account subsequent merit increases, Mr. Waddell’s base annual salary under the employment agreement is currently $270,000. Upon the Effective Date of the employment agreement, Mr. Waddell received a grant of restricted stock units totaling $125,000 in value using the Company’s closing stock price on the day preceding the Effective Date. Mr. Waddell’s restricted stock is in accordance with the terms of the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan and will vest in four equal annual installments. Upon vesting, Mr. Waddell will receive a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of restricted stock units that have vested. The employment agreement continues until terminated by us or by Mr. Waddell in accordance with the terms of the employment agreement. If Mr. Waddell is terminated by us without cause or he terminates his employment with us for good reason, as defined under the agreement, we must pay him an amount equal to three months of base salary. In the event that we are involved in a change of control transaction, which generally means the transfer of ownership of more than 50% of our shares, and Mr. Waddell terminates his employment with us for good reason, we must pay him an amount equal to twelve months base salary. The agreement also contains non-solicitation, non-compete, and confidentiality provisions.

Description of the Information Presented in the Pay versus Performance Table

As described in greater detail in the narrative disclosure of this Proxy Statement, the Company’s executive compensation program reflects a pay-for-performance philosophy. While the Company utilizes several performance measures to align executive compensation with Company performance (as described in greater detail in the narrative disclosure of this Proxy Statement), not all of those Company measures are presented in the Pay versus Performance table. Moreover, the Company generally seeks to incentivize long-term performance, and therefore does not specifically align the Company’s performance measures with compensation that is actually paid (as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K) for a particular fiscal year. Compensation actually paid is influenced by numerous factors, including but not limited to the timing of new grant issuances and outstanding grant vesting, share price volatility during the fiscal year, our mix of short-term and long-term metrics, and many other factors. In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the Company is providing the following descriptions of the relationships between information presented in the Pay versus Performance table.

Compensation Actually Paid and Cumulative Company TSR

The compensation actually paid to our PEO, as computed in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, was $642,556, $586,040 and $615,271 for 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The average amount of compensation actually paid to the NEOs as a group (excluding Mr. Susi), as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, was $612,633, ($766,971) and $650,874 for 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The TSR of the Company, assuming an initial fixed $100 investment and computed in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(v)


of Regulation S-K, was $221.6, $126,59 and $202.68 for 2020-2023, 2020-2022 and 2020-2021, respectively. Please see Note 1 above for additional information related to the computation of Company TSR.

Compensation Actually Paid and Company Net Income

The compensation actually paid to our PEO, as computed in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, was $642,556, $586,040 and $615,271 for 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The average amount of compensation actually paid to the NEOs as a group (excluding Mr. Susi), as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, was $612,633, ($766,971) and $650,874 for 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company’s net income, as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K and reflected in the Company’s audited financial statements for the applicable fiscal year, was $17,192,776, $12,828,487 and $9,325,471 for 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Employee Benefit Plans

2023 Equity Incentive Plan

In April 2023, our Board adopted, and, at the 2023 Annual Meeting, the stockholders approved the IRADIMED CORPORATION 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”). 1,500,000 shares of common stock were initially reserved for issuance under the 2023 Plan. Any shares covered by an award that are forfeited, expired, canceled, settled in cash, settled by issuance of fewer shares than the amount underlying the award, or otherwise terminated without delivery of shares to the grantee, will be available for future grants under the 2023 Plan. The following types of awards are available for grant under the 2023 Plan: Incentive Stock Options (“ISOs”), non-qualified stock options (“NSOs”), stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards and other stock-based awards and cash awards. Unless earlier terminated by our Board, the authority to make grants under the 2023 Plan will terminate in April 2033.


Eligibility to participate in the 2023 Plan is limited to such employees, officers, directors, consultants, and advisors of the Company, or of any affiliate, as our Board may determine and designate from time to time. The exercise price per share of an ISO or NSO (together, “Options”) will in no event be less than 100% of the fair market value per share of our stock underlying the award on the grant date. The grant price of a SAR will be fixed at the fair market value of a share of stock on the date of grant. Our Board determines when an Option or SAR will become exercisable and includes such information in the award agreement. Options and SARs will expire at such time as our Board determines; provided, however, that no Option may be exercised more than ten years from the date of grant, or in the case of an ISO held by a Ten Percent Shareholder, not more than five years from the date of grant.

As of December 31, 2023, there were no restricted stock units, performance-based restricted stock units or options to purchase shares of common stock issued and outstanding under the 2023 Plan.

2014 Equity Incentive Plan

In April 2014, our Board adopted and the stockholders approved the IRADIMED CORPORATION 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”). 1,000,000 shares of common stock were initially reserved for issuance under the 2014 Plan. In June 2020, the stockholders approved the Amended and Restated 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, which increased the number of shares available for the grant of awards from 1,000,000 to 2,000,000. Any shares covered by an award that are forfeited, expired, canceled, settled in cash, settled by issuance of fewer shares than the amount underlying the award, or otherwise terminated without delivery of shares to the grantee, will be available for future grants under the 2014 Plan. The following types of awards are available for grant under the 2014 Plan: Incentive Stock Options (“ISOs”), non-qualified stock options (“NSOs”), stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards and other stock-based awards and cash awards. The 2014 Plan terminated on April 14, 2024.

Eligibility to participate in the 2014 Plan is limited to such employees, officers, directors, consultants, and advisors of the Company, or of any affiliate, as our Board may determine and designate from time to time. The exercise price per share of an ISO or NSO (together, “Options”) will in no event be less than 100% of the fair market value per share of our stock underlying the award on the grant date. The grant price of a SAR will be fixed at the fair market value of a share of stock on the date of grant. Our Board determines when an Option or SAR will become exercisable and includes such information in the award agreement. Options and SARs will expire at such time as our Board determines; provided, however, that no Option may be exercised more than ten years from the date of grant, or in the case of an ISO held by a Ten Percent Shareholder, not more than five years from the date of grant.

As of December 31, 2023, 141,327 restricted stock units, 36,792 performance-based restricted stock units and 3,010 options to purchase shares of common stock were issued and outstanding under the 2014 Plan.

Limitations of Director Liability and Indemnification of Directors, Officers, and Employees

As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, provisions in our charter and amended and restated bylaws limit or eliminate the personal liability of our directors. Consequently, directors will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages or breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for:

any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;
any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
any unlawful payments related to dividends or unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions; or
any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

These limitations of liability do not alter director liability under the federal securities laws and do not affect the availability of equitable remedies, such as an injunction or rescission.


In addition, our charter and amended and restated bylaws provide that:

we will indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, subject to limited exceptions, including an exception for indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or counterclaim) initiated by such persons; and
we will advance expenses, including attorneys’ fees, to our directors and officers in connection with legal proceedings, subject to limited exceptions.

We maintain general liability insurance that covers certain liabilities of our directors and officers arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons who control our company, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

These provisions may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions. We believe that these provisions and the insurance are necessary to attract and retain talented and experienced directors and officers.

Director Compensation

We compensate non-employee members of the Board. Directors who are also employees do not receive cash or equity compensation for service on the Board in addition to compensation payable for their service as our employees. Our non-employee directors receive annual cash retainers for service on our Board and committees of our Board as set forth in the table below.

Non-employee directors receive an annual RSU award of $100,000 with a two-year vesting period.

The following table sets forth summary information concerning the compensation awarded to, paid to, or earned by the non-employee members of our Board for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Policy for Review of Related Person Transactions

 

The Board of Directors has adopted the Code of Ethics, which contains a written policy with regard to related person transactions, which sets forth our procedures and standards for the review, approval or ratification of any transaction required to be reported in our filings with the SEC or in which one of our executive officers or directors has a direct or indirect material financial interest, with limited exceptions. Our policy is that the Audit Committee shall review the material facts of all related person transactions and either approve or disapprove of the entry into any related person transaction. In determining whether to approve a related person transaction, the Audit Committee will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, whether the related person transaction is on terms comparable to those available from an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction.

 

Related Person Transactions

 

SEC regulations define the related person transactions that require disclosure to include any transaction, arrangement or relationship in which the amount involved exceeds the lesser of (a) $120,000 or (b) one percent of the average of the Company’s total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years in which it was or is to be a participant and in which a related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. A related person is: (i) an executive officer, director or director nominee of the Company, (ii) a beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of the Company’s voting securities, (iii) an immediate family member of an executive officer, director or director nominee or beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of the Company’s voting securities, or (iv) any entity that is owned or controlled by any of the foregoing persons or in which any of the foregoing persons has a substantial ownership interest or control.

Lease of Property from CEO

In January 2014, we entered into a non-cancelable operating lease, commencing July 1, 2014, for our manufacturing and headquarters facility in Winter Springs, Florida owned by Susi, LLC, an entity controlled by our President, Chief Executive Officer, and Chairman of the Board, Roger Susi. Pursuant to the terms of our lease for this property, the monthly base rent is $34,133, adjusted annually for changes in the consumer price index. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company paid Susi, LLC $520,647 related to this lease. Under the terms of the lease, we are responsible for property taxes, insurance, and maintenance expenses. Prior to May 31, 2019, the expiration date of the initial lease term, and pursuant to the terms of the lease contract, we renewed the lease for an additional five years, resulting in a new lease expiration date of May 31, 2024. Unless advance written notice of termination is timely provided, the lease will automatically renew for one additional successive term of five years beginning in 2024, and thereafter, will be renewed for successive terms of one year each.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The following audit committee report shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and shall not otherwise be deemed filed under these acts, except to the extent we specifically incorporate by reference into such filings.

The Audit Committee has furnished the following report:

It is the responsibility of management to prepare the consolidated financial statements and the responsibility of RSM US LLP, Iradimed’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year 2023, to audit the consolidated


financial statements for conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Audit Committee has adopted a written charter describing the functions and responsibilities of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee charter is available on Iradimed’s website at www.iradimed.com..

In connection with its review of Iradimed’s consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2023, the Audit Committee has:

Reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements with Iradimed’s management;
Discussed with Iradimed’s independent registered public accounting firm those matters required to be discussed

by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) and the United

States Securities and Exchange Commission;

Received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required

by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent registered public accounting firm’s

communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and discussed with the independent

registered public accounting firm, the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence; and

Approved the audit and non-audit services of the independent registered public accounting firm for 2023.

The Audit Committee has also discussed with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, the quality and adequacy of Iradimed’s controls and the internal audit function’s organization, responsibilities, budget, and staffing. The internal control function is outsourced to an assurance firm separate from our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee reviewed with the independent registered public accounting firm their audit plans, audit scope, and identification of audit risks. The Audit Committee has procedures in place to receive and address complaints regarding accounting, internal controls, or auditing and other Iradimed issues.

Based on the review and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited consolidated financial statements be included as presented in Iradimed’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
