Compensation Actually Paid vs. Total Shareholder Return
1. Compensation Actually Paid (“CAP”) versus TSR for Company and Peer Group
[MISSING IMAGE: bc_tsr-pn.jpg]
From 2021 to 2025, we delivered strong TSR performance relative to the TSR of the S&P 400 Industrials.
Our 5-year cumulative TSR is 148% above the S&P 400 industrials index at the end of the 5-year period.
The PEO’s and other NEOs’ CAP amounts are aligned with our TSR. This is due primarily to our use of equity incentives, which are tied directly to stock price in addition to the company’s financial performance.
Additional information about our annual and long-term incentive programs begins on page 36.
       
Compensation Actually Paid vs. Net Income
2. CAP versus Net Income
[MISSING IMAGE: bc_netincome-pn.jpg]
As illustrated in the chart, our net income significantly increased from 2021. While the Company does not use net income to determine compensation levels or incentive plan payouts, it is a contributor to Adjusted EPS which is a key metric in our annual incentive program.
Additional information about our annual and long-term incentive programs begins on page 36.
       
Compensation Actually Paid vs. Company Selected Measure
3. CAP versus Company-Selected Measure (“CSM”): Adjusted Revenue
[MISSING IMAGE: bc_revenue-pn.jpg]
Our Adjusted Revenue* was up 94% from 2021. Adjusted Revenue is a key metric in our annual incentive program which comprised 13% of the 2025 target total direct compensation for our PEO, and 19% on average for Non-PEO NEOs. Additional details on our annual incentive program can be found beginning on page 36.
