Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation
(see page 27)
Consistent with SEC regulations, we are holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation, commonly known as “say-on-pay,” to provide our stockholders with an opportunity to express their views on our named executive officers’ compensation.
Our executive compensation program is designed to support our culture, to attract, retain, and motivate executives who can contribute to our future success as a global organization, and to reinforce the achievement of strategic financial metrics aligned with long-term sustainable profitability and growth. The program emphasizes pay-for-performance, with a significant portion of executive compensation at risk and subject to the achievement of performance metrics that are aligned to our strategy and long-term stockholder value. This includes the performance-based equity incentive program that we implemented in fiscal year 2022 in which one-half of our executive officers’ long-term compensation is comprised of performance-based restricted stock units. See “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” in this Proxy Statement for a discussion of our executive compensation program and the compensation earned by our executive officers in fiscal year 2023.




CNX_Logos_Primary Logo (1).jpg
2024 Proxy Statement 5


Our executive compensation program and compensation philosophy is also supported by policies and practices that reflect our commitment to do right by and for people, including the following:
What We DoWhat We Do Not Do
Balance cash and equity compensation with a strong emphasis on pay-for-performance and at-risk compensation
No guaranteed minimum payouts or uncapped incentive award opportunities
Enhance retention and alignment with long-term stockholder value through multi-year performance periods and vesting cycles
No excessive perquisites or personal benefits for executive officers
Provide incentive award opportunities based on metrics that promote long-term stockholder value
No easily achievable target performance goals
Require executive officers and directors to own and retain shares of Common Stock that have significant value to strengthen alignment with stockholder interests
No hedging transactions, short sales, or other derivative transactions in our Common Stock by our directors, officers and staff
Assess the competitiveness of our executive compensation program by comparison to a group of peer companies
No single-trigger change of control benefits or special retirement plans for executive officers
Maintain a robust clawback policy that provides for the recoupment of incentive compensation in compliance with applicable law
No tax gross-up payments for executive officers for a change of control
Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers.

For information about shares of Common Stock registered in your name, call Computershare toll free at (877) 373-6374 or access your account via the Internet at www.computershare.com/investor.
Beneficial Owners. If you hold your shares of Common Stock in a brokerage account or through a bank or other nominee, your broker, bank, or other nominee is considered the “stockholder of record” and you are considered the “beneficial owner” of the shares. In this case, your broker, bank, or other nominee is responsible for providing you with instructions on how to vote. If you are a beneficial owner and want to vote your shares of Common Stock at the virtual Annual Meeting, you will need the unique 16-digit control number that appears on the instructions that accompanied the notice of internet availability or the proxy materials that you received.
If you do not instruct your broker, bank, or other nominee on how to vote your shares of Common Stock, it will have discretionary authority to vote your shares on the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2024 (Proposal 2). However, your broker, bank, or other nominee will not be permitted to vote your shares (resulting in a “broker non-vote”) on the election of directors (Proposal 1) or the advisory vote to approve our executive compensation (Proposal 3).
Voting by Proxy. Your vote by proxy covers all shares of Common Stock registered in your name. If you vote your shares of Common Stock by proxy (whether on the Internet, by toll-free telephone call, or by returning a proxy card by mail) and you do not direct specific voting instructions, the shares represented will be voted consistent with the Board’s recommendations:
FOR the election of all ten director nominees named in this Proxy Statement;

Table of Contents
FOR the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2024;
FOR the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers; and
In the discretion of the proxy holders on any other matters properly brought before the meeting.
Your vote is important. Whether or not you plan to attend the virtual Annual Meeting, please vote by proxy on the Internet, by toll-free telephone call or, if you have requested a paper copy of our proxy materials, by signing, dating, and returning the proxy card.
401(k) Plan Shares. If you own shares of Common Stock in the Concentrix Corporation Retirement and Savings Plan (the “401(k) Plan”), your proxy card also covers those shares. The trustee of the 401(k) Plan will vote your 401(k) Plan shares as directed by you. If you do not provide voting instructions, the trustee of the 401(k) Plan will vote your 401(k) Plan shares in proportion to the voting instructions it has received. To vote your 401(k) Plan shares, you may use one of the methods described above under “Stockholders of Record,” but your vote must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on March 18, 2024.
How to Change or Revoke Your Vote
Attending the virtual Annual Meeting does not automatically revoke or cancel your prior vote by proxy. If you are a stockholder of record, you may change or revoke your vote by proxy if you:
deliver a written notice of revocation to our Corporate Secretary prior to votes being cast at the Annual Meeting;
execute and return a later-dated proxy prior to votes being cast at the Annual Meeting;
cast a new vote by proxy on the Internet or by toll-free telephone call before 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time, on March 20, 2024; or
attend the virtual Annual Meeting and submit a new vote through the virtual meeting platform.
If you are a beneficial owner, follow the instructions provided by your broker, bank, or other nominee to revoke your vote by proxy, if applicable.
Quorum
We will have a quorum to conduct business at the Annual Meeting if holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote as of the close of business on the record date are present or represented by proxy at the meeting. In determining a quorum, shares of Common Stock held by stockholders who abstain from voting or whose shares are represented by broker non-votes on any proposal will be considered present at the Annual Meeting.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Governance Policies
Our Corporate Governance Guidelines, Code of Ethical Business Conduct, and Human Rights Policy are available on the “Governance Documents” page of the Investor Relations section of our website at www.concentrix.com, and copies of each may be obtained upon request from our Corporate Secretary. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines contain information about the structure and functioning of our Board, including with respect to Board and Committee composition, independence, membership criteria, and stock ownership guidelines.



CNX_Logos_Primary Logo (1).jpg
2024 Proxy Statement 9

Table of Contents
We rely on our Code of Ethical Business Conduct to communicate the legal and ethical standards for how we conduct our business, including our adherence to applicable Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) listing standards and SEC regulations. All of our directors, executive officers, and employees are required to comply with the Code of Ethical Business Conduct, and we translate the Code into approximately 30 languages to ensure our staff around the globe can read it in their primary languages.
Our Human Rights Policy reinforces our commitment to human rights and supplements our Code of Ethical Business Conduct by setting out key principles that we strive to adhere to in the protection of liberty, freedom, and other human rights, consistent with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Our Board of Directors has approved and has oversight responsibility for our Human Rights Policy.

We have a robust whistleblower program that is overseen by the Audit Committee. Stockholders, staff, clients, and other interested parties can anonymously submit complaints, including violations of the Code of Ethical Business Conduct, online or through a written communication sent to the Chair of the Audit Committee. Information regarding the reports received through our whistleblower program are reviewed quarterly with the Audit Committee.
We intend to disclose any waivers from, or amendments to, our Code of Ethical Business Conduct that apply to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and persons performing similar functions that are required to be disclosed by Item 5.05 of Form 8-K by timely posting disclosure of such events on our website at www.concentrix.com. The information on our website is not, and will not be deemed to be, a part of this Proxy Statement or incorporated into any other filings we make with the SEC.
Stockholder Engagement

Making the greatest impact means that we must listen to, learn from, and collaborate with many different stakeholders, and have implemented an active and regular engagement program as a part of our strong corporate governance practices.

We engage in outreach efforts to receive valuable feedback that informs our decisions with respect to our strategy, corporate governance practices and policies, ESG initiatives, and our external communications. In the last twelve months, we engaged with stockholders representing more than 70% of our outstanding shares, in over 170 virtual and in-person meetings. Key topics discussed during these meetings included:

our financial performance and capital deployment;
the combination and integration with Webhelp;
technological innovation, including generative AI, and views on market trends;
our executive compensation practices;
Board composition; and
our ESG practices and policies.

We value the input of our stockholders, and significant feedback we receive from our stockholders is shared with our executive team and our Board, as appropriate.

Related Party Transactions
Our written related party transactions policy requires our Audit Committee to review any transaction, arrangement or relationship or series thereof that will involve more than $120,000 in which the Company is a participant, and in which any related party (directors, executive officers, holders of more than five percent of the Common Stock, and immediate family members of any of the foregoing) has a direct or indirect material interest (each a “related party transaction”). In determining whether to ratify or approve a related party transaction, the Audit Committee will consider, among other factors it deems appropriate, whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances, the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction,



CNX_Logos_Primary Logo (1).jpg
2024 Proxy Statement 10

Table of Contents
the approximate dollar value of the transaction, and whether the proposed transaction includes any potential reputational risk to the Company. Executive officer and non-employee director compensation reported in this proxy statement is not considered a related party transaction.
Other than as set forth below, since the beginning of fiscal year 2023, there have been no related party transactions and, as of the date of this Proxy Statement, no related party transactions are proposed.
Investor Rights Agreement. In connection with the Webhelp combination, in March 2023, the Company entered into an Investor Rights Agreement (the “IRA”) with certain stockholders (the “Initial Stockholders”) of Marnix Lux SA, a public limited liability company (société anonyme) incorporated under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (“Webhelp Parent”) and the parent company of the Webhelp business, which IRA became effective on the closing of the combination in September 2023. The Initial Stockholders included certain affiliates of Groupe Bruxelles Lambert (“GBL”) and Olivier Duha. As of the record date, GBL and its affiliates owned approximately 13.2% of our outstanding Common Stock.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the IRA, (i) GBL has the right to nominate two directors (the “GBL Directors”) to our Board for so long as certain entities associated with GBL and Mr. Duha own at least 70% of the shares of Common Stock originally issued to them in the Webhelp combination and (ii) GBL has the right to nominate one director to the Board for so long as certain entities associated with GBL owns at least 50% of the shares of Common Stock originally issued to them in the Webhelp combination. If GBL has the right to nominate two directors, Mr. Duha has the right to be nominated as one of the two GBL Directors for so long as he owns at least 50% of the shares of Common Stock originally issued to him in the Webhelp combination. The initial GBL Directors were Mr. Duha and Nicolas Gheysens.
Each of the Initial Stockholders agreed not to take certain actions without the Company’s prior written consent so long as they hold at least 50% of the shares originally issued to them in the Webhelp combination, including making any proposal, public statement or offer to the Board or the Company’s stockholders regarding business combinations, tender offers, restructuring, liquidation, or acquisition of Company loans, securities, or assets, among other specified actions. Neither the Company nor any material subsidiary may amend its organizational documents in a manner that disproportionately adversely affects the rights of the Initial Stockholders or that is knowingly in violation of the rights of any Initial Stockholder pursuant to the IRA so long as such Initial Stockholder holds at least 50% of the shares of Common Stock originally issued to it in the Webhelp combination.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the IRA, the Initial Stockholders have agreed to certain customary lock-up provisions covering the shares of Common Stock issued to them at closing. The Initial Stockholders have certain registration rights under the IRA, which requires the Company to register, within 180 days of the closing of the Webhelp combination, the resale of certain shares of Common Stock held by the Initial Stockholders. Upon demand by the Initial Stockholders, the Company will also be required to register a sale by the Initial Stockholders of such shares with a value of at least $100 million up to two times in any rolling twelve-month period. The Initial Stockholders will also have “piggy-back” registration rights to include their shares of Common Stock in certain other registration statements filed by the Company.
The Company has agreed to waive the corporate opportunity doctrine to the extent permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law with respect to GBL and the GBL Directors.

Risk Management
The Board, directly and indirectly through its committees, oversees the Company’s risk management process, including risks related to climate change, executive officer succession planning, and cybersecurity. The full Board is informed of each committee’s risk oversight activities through regular reports from the committee chairs. In addition, Board members generally attend committee meetings for which they are not members in a non-voting capacity to remain aware of, and provide input on, the



CNX_Logos_Primary Logo (1).jpg
2024 Proxy Statement 11

Table of Contents
matters addressed by those committees. Strategic, operational, financial, and competitive risks are presented and discussed at the Board’s quarterly meetings, and the Board conducts an annual review of our long-term strategic plans.
At the committee level, the Audit Committee has oversight responsibility for our risk assessment and management activities, including with respect to information technology, cybersecurity, and privacy. The Nominating and Governance Committee assists the Board in overseeing the Company’s governance risks, including Board composition and succession, and compliance with SEC and Nasdaq regulations related to corporate governance. The Compensation Committee oversees the Company’s compensation policies and practices and related human capital and compensation risks.
Compensation Risk Assessment. In consultation with the Compensation Committee and the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consultant, members of management from the Company’s People Solutions and Legal departments annually assess whether the Company’s compensation policies and practices encourage excessive or inappropriate risk-taking by our employees, including employees other than our named executive officers. The risk assessment in fiscal year 2023 included a review of compensation policies and practices, the design of our incentive plans and policies, the risk characteristics of our business, the alignment of our compensation programs to our company strategy, our internal controls and related risk management programs, and the compensation programs’ risk mitigation features.
Management reported its findings to the Compensation Committee, and after review and discussion, the Compensation Committee concluded that our compensation programs do not encourage executive officers or other employees to take unnecessary or excessive risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our business. Factors considered by the Compensation Committee as part of its review include:
•    Our compensation programs have a balance of short- and long-term incentive programs that measure performance against multiple metrics that enhance long-term stockholder value, aligning our team with our short- and long-term strategy.
•    Incentive award opportunities have appropriate thresholds and caps, are plotted along a continuum, and are not highly leveraged with significant escalations in payout for incremental performance.
•    Long-term incentive awards align the interests of equity award recipients with those of stockholders.
•    Equity awards have multi-year vesting provisions, which promote long-term value creation, aid in retention, and reduce the potential for short-term risk taking.
•    Our share ownership guidelines require our executive officers and directors to own a significant amount of Common Stock so that each individual has personal wealth tied to our long-term success and is thereby aligned with stockholder interests.
•    Our compensation programs are evaluated against peer data to maintain competitiveness and market appropriateness in light of our industry, size and performance.
•    The Compensation Committee receives input from an independent compensation consultant on executive compensation programs.
•    Our Insider Trading Policy restricts trading of Company securities by executive officers and other leaders to open trading windows following pre-clearance by our Legal Department and prohibits hedging, short sales and other derivative transactions in the Company’s securities.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Leadership Structure
The Board regularly considers its leadership structure and believes that it is important to retain the flexibility to determine the appropriate leadership structure for the Company and its stockholders. Since the Company became a standalone public company in December 2020, the Board has maintained separate roles for the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Board Chair with Ms. Marinello serving as Chair of the Board. This separation enables the CEO to focus on the Company’s operations and day-to-day management of the Company, while the Chair focuses on leading the Board in its oversight and other responsibilities.
Director Independence
The Board annually reviews the independence of each director. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines require that a majority of the Board members qualify as independent directors under the Nasdaq listing standards. Based on the information provided by each director and the Board’s most recent review, the Board has determined that each of Mr. Chou and Mses. Council, Deason, Hayley, Marinello and Vezina qualifies as independent.
Mr. Caldwell is not considered independent due to his current employment as our President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Duha is not considered independent due to his previous role as Chief Executive Officer of Webhelp, prior to our combination with Webhelp in September 2023. Mr. Gheysens is not independent due to his role as an executive of GBL, which is the largest stockholder of Concentrix. GBL was the largest shareholder of Webhelp and received a significant portion of the purchase consideration, including a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the promissory note issued by us, as part of the Webhelp combination. Although we believe that Mr. Polk has no relationship that impairs his independence, we currently consider him to be not independent due to his role as an executive officer of TD SYNNEX Corporation (“TD SYNNEX”), which was the parent company of Concentrix prior to our separation from TD SYNNEX (the “spin-off”) in December 2020.
In evaluating the independence of Ms. Marinello, the Board considered the engagement of Concentrix to provide customer experience (“CX”) solutions for PODS for whom Ms. Marinello serves as Chief Executive Officer. In fiscal year 2023, PODS made payments to Concentrix of approximately $8.8 million in connection with these services, which represented less than 0.2% of our fiscal year 2023 revenue. The Board has determined that this arms-length commercial relationship does not affect the ability of Ms. Marinello to exercise independent judgment in carrying out her responsibilities as a member of the Board.
In evaluating the independence of Ms. Council, the Board considered the engagement of Concentrix to provide technical design and digital transformation services for Emerald One LLC (“Emerald One”) for whom Ms. Council serves as Chief Executive Officer. In fiscal year 2023, Emerald One made payments to Concentrix of approximately $0.2 million in connection with these services, which represented less than 0.1% of our fiscal year 2023 revenue. The Board has determined that this arms-length commercial relationship does not affect the ability of Ms. Council to exercise independent judgment in carrying out her responsibilities as a member of the Board.
Director Qualifications and Nomination Process
The Nominating and Governance Committee is responsible for identifying, screening, and recommending persons for nomination by the Board for election as directors. In accordance with our Corporate Governance Guidelines and with oversight from the Board, the Nominating and Governance Committee regularly assesses the skills and experience of the current Board members. Areas of focus include:



CNX_Logos_Primary Logo (1).jpg
2024 Proxy Statement 13

Table of Contents
experience in industries of importance to the Company’s business, including technology, communications and media, retail, travel and e-commerce, banking, financial services and insurance, and healthcare;
expertise in areas relevant to the Board’s oversight responsibilities, including senior management of a large organization and experience with global business, mergers and acquisitions, finance, marketing and sales, human resources, information technology and cybersecurity, business development and strategy, and governance;
a multi-stakeholder viewpoint and commitment to global citizenship that recognizes the importance of environmental, social and corporate governance factors in oversight of the Company;
diversity of race, ethnicity, gender, age, cultural background, and professional experiences;
personal qualities of leadership, character, judgment, and whether the candidate possesses and maintains a reputation for integrity, trust, respect, competence and adherence to the highest ethical standards; and
whether the individual is free of conflicts and has the time required for preparation, participation, and attendance at all meetings.
The Nominating and Governance Committee reviews these areas in the context of the current composition of the Board, identifying areas of present need and potential gaps in the future. In determining whether to nominate an individual for election or an incumbent director for re-election, the Nominating and Governance Committee and the Board consider the factors described above as well as an incumbent director’s satisfactory performance and other matters they deem relevant. These factors are considered in the judgment of the Nominating and Governance Committee and the Board, and no rigid formula or weighting is applied.
Suggestions for director nominees can be brought to the Board’s attention by the Nominating and Governance Committee, by individual members of the Board, or by stockholders. The Nominating and Governance Committee also has the authority to engage third-parties to assist in identifying candidates. Candidates recommended by stockholders are evaluated in the same manner as candidates recommended by members of the Board or external advisors.
Our Bylaws contain provisions that address the process by which a stockholder may nominate an individual to stand for election to the Board at an Annual Meeting. In order to nominate a candidate for Board membership, a stockholder must give timely notice in writing to our Corporate Secretary and otherwise comply with the provisions of our Bylaws. To be timely, our Bylaws provide that we must have received the stockholder’s notice not more than 120 days nor less than 90 days in advance of the anniversary of the date of our proxy statement for the prior year’s Annual Meeting. However, if no Annual Meeting was held in the prior year or the current Annual Meeting is scheduled for a date more than 30 days before or after the anniversary of the prior year’s Annual Meeting, we must receive the stockholder’s notice by the later of the 90th day prior to the current Annual Meeting and the 10th day following public disclosure of the date of the current Annual Meeting. Information required by our Bylaws to be in the notice includes the name, age, and business and residential addresses of the nominee and the person making the nomination, the principal occupation of the nominee, the number of shares of Common Stock owned by the nominee, the nominee’s written consent to serve, if elected, and other information about the nominee that must be disclosed in proxy solicitations under Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations thereunder. Stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees must also provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 of the Exchange Act no later than 60 days prior to the anniversary of the prior year’s Annual Meeting.

Board Diversity
Concentrix is committed to diversity and inclusion, and the highly diverse nature of our Board reflects that commitment. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines articulate the Company’s belief that a variety of experiences and points of view contributes to a more effective decision-making process and the Board’s commitment to consider diversity of race, ethnicity, gender, age, cultural background, and professional experiences in evaluating candidates for Board membership.

Contacting the Board
The Board has established a process for stockholders and other interested persons to send communications to directors. Stockholders and other interested persons who wish to communicate with the Board as a whole or to individual non-employee directors, may send communications in writing to: Kathryn Marinello, Chair, Concentrix Corporation, 39899 Balentine Drive, Suite 235, Newark, California 94560 or Allison Leopold Tilley, Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP, 2550 Hanover Street, Palo Alto, California 94304. All communications must include the name and address of the sender in the written communication and indicate whether they are a stockholder of Concentrix or other interested person. Ms. Marinello and Ms. Leopold Tilley will review any communication received from a stockholder or other interested person, and all material communications from stockholders or other interested persons will be forwarded to the appropriate director or directors or Board committee based on the subject matter.
BOARD COMMITTEES
Our Board has four standing committees: Audit; Compensation; Executive; and Nominating and Governance. The Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Governance Committees are comprised solely of directors that are independent under applicable Nasdaq rules. Each standing committee has a written charter that has been approved by the Board and can be found on the “Governance Documents” page of the Investor Relations section of our website at www.concentrix.com. Copies of the committee charters are also available in printed form to any stockholder who submits a request to our Corporate Secretary. The information on our website is not, and will not be deemed to be, a part of this Proxy Statement or incorporated into any other filings we make with the SEC. Further information about each of the Board’s standing committees is set forth below.
AUDIT COMMITTEE
Current Members: Chou (Chair), Council, Deason; Audit Committee Financial Experts: Chou, Deason
Eight Meetings in 2023
The Audit Committee provides assistance to the Board in fulfilling its legal and fiduciary obligations in matters involving our accounting, auditing, financial reporting, internal control, and legal compliance functions. The Audit Committee reviews our financial statements and the periodic filings we make with the SEC. The Audit Committee oversees the audit work of our independent registered public accounting firm by approving the services performed by our independent registered public accounting firm, evaluating the independence of the accounting firm, and reviewing the accounting firm’s reports regarding our accounting practices and internal controls. The Audit Committee also has oversight responsibility for our risk assessment and management activities, including with respect to information technology, cybersecurity, and privacy. Management reports to the Audit Committee on the status of the Company’s key cybersecurity controls and audits on a quarterly basis.
The Audit Committee is comprised solely of independent directors. Each of the current members of the Audit Committee is financially literate, and Mr. Chou and Ms. Deason have been determined by the Board to be audit committee financial experts. No current member of the Audit Committee serves on the Audit Committee of more than three public companies.

Audit Committee Report. As set forth in the Audit Committee charter, the Audit Committee provides oversight regarding the Company’s accounting, financial reporting, internal control, internal audit, and legal compliance practices, including the integrity of the Company’s financial statements. The Company’s management is responsible for the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, its accounting and financial reporting principles, and internal controls and procedures. The Company’s independent public accountants are responsible for auditing the Company’s financial statements. During fiscal year 2023, KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) served as the Company’s independent public accountants.
The Company’s management has represented to the Audit Committee that the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements with management and KPMG. In connection with this review, the Audit Committee discussed and reviewed with KPMG the matters required to be discussed under Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) Auditing Standard 1301 (Communication with Audit Committees), and the Audit Committee, with and without management present, discussed and reviewed the results of KPMG’s examination of the Company’s financial statements, including the quality, not just the acceptability of the Company’s accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of disclosures in the Company’s financial statements.
The Audit Committee has also discussed with KPMG, with and without management present, KPMG’s audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and the overall quality of the Company’s financial reporting.
In discharging its oversight responsibility related to the audit process, the Audit Committee obtained from KPMG written disclosures regarding auditors’ independence as required by PCAOB Ethics and Independence Rule 3526 (Communications with Audit Committees Concerning Independence). In accordance with the foregoing standard, the Audit Committee discussed with KPMG matters related to KPMG’s independence and satisfied itself as to the firm’s independence. The Audit Committee also considered the compatibility of non-audit services with the firm’s independence.
In connection with the appointment, compensation, retention, and oversight of the independent auditor, the Audit Committee annually reviews the qualifications, performance, and independence of the independent auditor, and lead engagement partner, and assures the regular rotation of the lead engagement partner as required. In doing so, the Audit Committee considers a number of factors including, but not limited to: quality of services provided; technical expertise and knowledge of the industry; effective communication; objectivity; and the likely impact of changing the independent auditor.
The Audit Committee has determined that the provision of certain non-audit services is compatible with maintaining the independence of KPMG as the Company’s independent public accountants, subject to ongoing review and approval by the Audit Committee.
Based on the above-mentioned reviews and discussions with management and the independent auditors, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2023 for filing with the SEC. The Board approved this recommendation.

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
Current Members: Marinello (Chair), Caldwell, Chou, Duha, Gheysens, Hayley, Vezina
No Meetings in 2023
The Executive Committee is comprised of our Board Chair, our CEO, the Chairs of the Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Governance Committees, and such other members of the Board as are appointed by the Board. The Executive Committee is responsible for performing the functions of the Board between regularly scheduled meetings if there is a critical need for prompt action and it is not practical to arrange a meeting of the full Board. We do not expect the Executive Committee to meet or take action regularly.
DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Our Compensation Committee is responsible for reviewing our director compensation program and recommending adjustments, as appropriate, to the full Board. As part of its review, the Compensation Committee considers the significant time commitment and expertise required to effectively serve on our Board and its committees. The Board’s goal for our director compensation program is to provide non-employee directors with a fair compensation package that reflects the services they perform for our stockholders, as well as the performance of the Company.
In March 2023, the Compensation Committee recommended, and the Board approved, changes to our non-employee director compensation program to add Committee member retainers, increase the amounts of the Audit and Compensation Committee chair retainers, decrease the annual Board cash retainer and increase the annual director equity grant. As amended, our director compensation program consists of an annual retainer, a Board Chair retainer, Committee Chair and member retainers, and a long-term equity component, which consists of a grant of restricted stock units that vest in full on the earlier of the one-year anniversary of the date of grant and the date of our next annual meeting.

The 2023 changes were based, in part, on a review of the director compensation at our compensation peer group and aligned our director compensation program more closely to the peer group, while continuing to emphasize director equity ownership to strengthen alignment with stockholder interests. See “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Our Compensation Process.”
We provide coverage for directors under a director and officer liability insurance policy. We also reimburse directors for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for attending Board and Committee meetings and educational seminars and conferences in accordance with our director education program.

Stock Ownership Guidelines
The Board has adopted stock ownership guidelines that require each non-employee director to beneficially own shares of Common Stock, whether vested or unvested, that have a value equal to five times the annual Board retainer, which is currently $85,000. The stock ownership guidelines promote and increase the ownership of Common Stock by our Board and further align the Board’s interests with those of our stockholders. Each non-employee director has five years from their initial election or appointment to the Board to satisfy the ownership guidelines and, based on this transition period, each of our non-employee directors is in compliance with the guidelines. Unexercised stock options (whether vested or unvested) and unearned performance awards are not counted toward compliance with the stock ownership guidelines.

PROPOSALS REQUIRING YOUR VOTE
Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors
Our Board currently has ten directors. Each director is elected for a one-year term until the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until a successor is elected, or until the director’s earlier resignation, removal from office, or death. Upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee, the Board has nominated for election as directors at the Annual Meeting the ten individuals named below, each of whom is currently serving on the Board.
In our Proxy Statement related to our 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, we disclosed that we expected Mr. Polk’s service on the Board, which initially was for transition purposes related to our spin-off from TD SYNNEX in December 2020, would conclude at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. After further consideration and discussion, including with respect to Mr. Polk’s strengths as a director, our Board determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders that Mr. Polk remain on our Board.
You may vote or withhold authority to vote for each of the director nominees. Cumulative voting is not permitted, which means that each stockholder may vote no more than the number of shares they own for a single director candidate. Shares of Common Stock as to which the authority to vote is withheld are not counted toward the election of the director nominees specified on the proxy. Broker non-votes will have no effect. Directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast, meaning that the director nominees who receive the greatest number of shares voted “for” their election are elected. However, under the Company’s Bylaws, if any director receives a greater number of “withhold” votes than votes “for” in an uncontested election, the director must promptly tender their resignation to the Board. The Board will consider the resignation and determine whether to accept or reject the resignation.
We expect that each of the ten nominees listed below will stand for re-election at the Annual Meeting. However, if any nominee is not a candidate at that time for any reason, proxies (excluding broker non-votes) will be voted for a substitute nominee designated by the Board. Proxies submitted without direction will be voted for each director nominee named below. Broker non-votes will have no effect.
OUR BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR EACH OF THE NOMINEES SET FORTH BELOW.

Proposal No. 2: Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Our Audit Committee has appointed KPMG as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s financial statements for fiscal year 2024. Although ratification by our stockholders is not required by law or our Bylaws, we are submitting the appointment for ratification at the Annual Meeting because the Board values the opinion of our stockholders. You may vote for, against, or abstain from voting on this proposal. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of Common Stock represented, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is required to approve this proposal, which means that the number of shares voted “for” the proposal must exceed the number of shares voted “against” the proposal for the proposal to pass. Abstentions will be counted as votes cast and will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal. Proxies submitted without direction will be voted for the ratification of the appointment of KPMG as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2024.
If our stockholders do not ratify the selection of KPMG, the Audit Committee will reconsider the appointment of KPMG but will be under no obligation to select a new accounting firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee may appoint a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time if the Audit Committee determines that a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders.
Representatives of KPMG are expected to attend the Annual Meeting to respond to appropriate questions and have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so.
OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF KPMG LLP AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR FISCAL YEAR 2024.
Audit Fees. KPMG audited our consolidated financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2023 and has been our independent registered public accounting firm since 2019. Consistent with SEC rules regarding auditor independence, the lead KPMG partner on the Concentrix account will not serve in that role for more than five consecutive years.

Fees billed for professional services rendered by KPMG for the fiscal years ended November 30, 2023 and 2022 were as set forth in the table below.

All Other Fees
Total $5,481,091 $4,723,213 
(1)     Audit Fees were for professional services rendered for the audits of our financial statements and internal control over financial reporting, reviews of our interim consolidated financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, statutory audits of our subsidiaries, and services provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings.
(2)     Audit-Related Fees in fiscal year 2022 were for professional services rendered relating to attestation and compilation services for our subsidiaries in connection with statutory and regulatory filings.
(3)     Tax Fees were primarily for professional services rendered relating to domestic and foreign tax compliance services and consulting services for international tax and planning services.
The Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures related to the pre-approval of all audit, audit-related, tax and other permissible services that will be provided by our independent registered public accounting firm. Under these procedures, the Audit Committee pre-approves both the type of services to be provided by KPMG and the estimated fees related to these services. During the approval process, the Audit Committee considers the impact of the types of services and the related fees on the independence of the registered public accountants. The services and fees must be deemed compatible with the accountants’ independence, including compliance with SEC rules and regulations. Throughout the year, the Audit Committee reviews and approves updates to the estimates of audit and non-audit fees initially approved.
All of the services presented in the table above for fiscal years 2023 and 2022 were approved by the Audit Committee in conformity with its pre-approval policies and procedures.
Proposal No. 3: Approval of the Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (Section 14a of the Exchange Act) requires that we provide our stockholders with the opportunity to vote to approve, on a nonbinding, advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC. Consistent with this requirement, we are holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation, commonly known as “say-on-pay,” to provide our stockholders with an opportunity to express their views on our named executive officers’ compensation. The vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers and our compensation philosophy, policies, and practices described in this Proxy Statement. Accordingly, we will ask our stockholders to vote “FOR” the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:
“RESOLVED, that the Company’s stockholders approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the 2023 Summary Compensation Table and other compensation tables, and the related narrative disclosure.”
You may vote for, against, or abstain from voting on this proposal. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of Common Stock represented, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote at the Annual

Meeting is required to approve this proposal, which means that the number of shares voted “for” the proposal must exceed the number of shares voted “against” the proposal for the proposal to pass. Abstentions will be counted as votes cast and will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect. Proxies submitted without direction will be voted for the approval, on an advisory basis, of our named executive officers’ compensation.
Because this vote is advisory, it will not be binding on the Board or the Company. However, the Board and the Compensation Committee value the opinions expressed by our stockholders and will consider the outcome of the vote when evaluating our compensation practices and making future decisions regarding executive compensation. Consistent with the advisory vote of our stockholders at the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on the frequency of say-on-pay votes, a non-binding advisory vote on our executive compensation will again be included in our proxy statement next year.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE APPROVAL, ON AN ADVISORY BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Our Named Executive Officers
For purposes of the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and the executive compensation tables that follow, the below individuals are referred to as our “named executive officers” or “NEOs.” They are our chief executive officer, our chief financial officer, and our three other executive officers during fiscal year 2023:
Chris Caldwell, President and Chief Executive Officer.
Andre Valentine, Chief Financial Officer
Cormac Twomey, Executive Vice President, Global Operations and Delivery.
Rick Rosso, Executive Vice President, Practices and Catalyst.
Jane Fogarty, Executive Vice President, Legal and Corporate Secretary.
In January 2024, Mr. Rosso, our former Executive Vice President, Global Sales and Account Management, transitioned to a non-executive officer role with Concentrix and was succeeded by Craig Gibson as part of our executive officer succession planning.
Our Total Rewards Philosophy
Our compensation and benefits programs align our strategy and the financial interests of our NEOs, staff and stockholders. Our compensation programs are developed to support our culture, attract, retain, and motivate executives who can contribute to our future success as a global organization, and reinforce the achievement of strategic financial metrics aligned with long-term sustainable profitability and growth. Our executive compensation programs are designed with the following objectives in mind:
Market-Competitive. We benchmark and assess our executive compensation program annually to ensure market-competitive target total direct compensation consisting of base salary, a target annual cash incentive, and long-term equity incentives.
Pay for Performance. We remain committed to pay-for-performance by closely linking compensation with performance. We emphasize pay-for-performance by making a significant percentage of the target total direct compensation of each NEO contingent on attaining annual and long-term Company performance goals.
Business Results and Stockholder Value. We reward success and performance to achieve business results for long-term impact. We align incentive programs with stockholder value creation using annual and three-year performance measures that drive stockholder value.
Comprehensive Benefit Programs. We enhance total direct compensation with benefit programs and offerings that enable total well-being and mental health.
Our Compensation Process
Role of Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has overall responsibility for our executive compensation policies as provided in the Compensation Committee Charter adopted by the Board. The Compensation Committee is empowered to review and approve the annual compensation and compensation procedures for our executive officers and does not delegate any of these functions to others in setting compensation.
Role of Management. Our CEO and our Senior Vice President of People Solutions provide recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding the general design of the Company’s



CNX_Logos_Primary Logo (1).jpg
2024 Proxy Statement 32

Table of Contents
compensation plans as well as the compensation of the other executive officers. The CEO’s compensation is discussed and approved during executive sessions of the Compensation Committee and Board without the CEO present.
Compensation Consultant. In accordance with the Compensation Committee Charter, the Compensation Committee has the authority, at the Company’s expense and without further approval, to engage, retain, replace, and terminate any compensation consultants, outside counsel, or other advisors to the Compensation Committee, including the authority to approve the consultant’s or advisor’s fees and other retention terms. During fiscal year 2023, the Compensation Committee engaged FW Cook to provide advice on, and assist the Compensation Committee in its review of, executive officer and non-employee director compensation matters, including the review of the Company’s compensation peer group and incentive plan design for our NEOs. The Compensation Committee regularly meets with its independent compensation consultant without management present.
The Compensation Committee reviewed the independence of FW Cook in fiscal year 2023, including the specific factors set forth in Rule 10C-1 under the Exchange Act and determined that FW Cook is independent and that FW Cook’s work for the Committee does not raise any conflict of interest.
Compensation Peer Group. During 2022, the Compensation Committee, with assistance from FW Cook, evaluated and approved the below peer group to be used for fiscal year 2023 compensation purposes:
Amdocs LimitedExlService Holdings, Inc.TransUnion
Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.Five9, Inc.TTEC Holdings, Inc.
CGI Inc.(1)
Genpact LimitedVerint Systems Inc.
Cognizant Technology Solutions CorporationOpen Text CorporationVerisk Analytics, Inc.
DXC Technology CompanyPerficient, Inc.
Equifax Inc.
Teleperformance(1)
(1) Traded on a non-U.S. stock exchange and compensation data may not be available for all comparisons reviewed.
To identify a sufficient number of companies so that the data gathered is adequate to reach reasonable conclusions about the competitive market, the Compensation Committee considers peers that operate in the CX solutions and technology industry, as well as adjacent industries that compete for similar executive talent. The above peer companies were selected primarily based upon having similar business operations and being in a reasonable size range for direct compensation comparisons. At the time the peer group was approved, our revenue was at the 72nd percentile of the peers’ revenue for the trailing four quarters, and our market capitalization was at the 39th percentile of the peers’ average market capitalization for the most recently disclosed fiscal year (i.e., corresponding to the most recent year of compensation disclosures). Certain of our core CX solutions competitors were not included in the compensation peer group because the companies do not have sufficient history as a public company from which to gather comparative compensation information.
During 2023, the Compensation Committee reviewed the compensation peer group to be used for fiscal year 2024 compensation purposes and replaced Bread Financial Holdings, Inc., Perficient, Inc., and Verint Systems Inc. with EPAM Systems, Inc. and Fair Isaac Corporation, which the Committee determined to be more suitable comparators in terms of size and similar business operations. At the time the 2024 peer group was approved, our revenue was at the 80th percentile of the peers’ revenue for the trailing four quarters, and our market capitalization was at the 36th percentile of the peers’ average market capitalization for the most recently disclosed fiscal year (i.e., corresponding to the most recent year of compensation disclosures), in each case, after giving effect to the estimated impact of the then-pending Webhelp combination.

2023 Say-on-Pay Advisory Vote. Approximately 87% of the votes cast at our 2023 Annual Meeting voted to approve the compensation of our named executive officers. We believe that this substantial majority of votes cast continues to represent our stockholders’ alignment with our executive compensation and benefits structure, which emphasizes pay-for-performance and prudent governance practices. We also continue to strive to further align our compensation program with the expectations of our stockholders. During 2023, we sought further feedback and perspectives from our stockholders, including with respect to executive compensation, and have taken those perspectives into consideration when making compensation decisions.
We once again recommend that our stockholders vote FOR the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers.
Elements of the Fiscal Year 2023 Compensation Program
Our executive compensation program includes four primary components:
(1)    base salary;
(2)    cash incentive awards under our Senior Management Incentive Plan (“SMIP”);
(3)    performance-based equity incentive awards; and
(4)     time-based equity awards.
Generally, the Compensation Committee seeks to set target total cash compensation (base salary plus target cash incentive award) at a level that requires our NEOs to achieve above-market performance to earn total cash compensation that exceeds the median of our peer group. We continue to expect a progression in the compensation of our NEOs to support the competitiveness of our executive compensation program as a new public company and in comparison to our compensation peer group.
Base Salary. Base salaries are designed to provide a consistent cash flow throughout the year as compensation for day-to-day responsibilities. Base salaries are reviewed and, if deemed appropriate, adjusted on an annual basis. Our NEOs’ base salaries are based on, among other things, the breadth and complexity of the individual’s responsibilities, their contributions to our performance, individual performance, and any new responsibilities assumed. The Compensation Committee reviews data from our compensation peer group to validate the competitiveness of our compensation program, including base salaries. However, the Compensation Committee does not benchmark base salary to a specific percentile of the peer data.
In January 2023, the Compensation Committee approved fiscal year 2023 base salaries for each of our named executive officers, as follows:
Fiscal Year 2023 Base SalaryYear-over-Year % Change

With the exception of Ms. Fogarty, the Compensation Committee determined not to increase the NEOs’ fiscal 2023 base salaries. This decision was aligned to the Compensation Committee’s philosophy of setting cash compensation at a level that requires above-market performance to achieve above-market cash compensation. The decision also reflected the Company’s fiscal year 2022 performance, in which annual revenue and non-GAAP operating income achievement were below annual goals. The Compensation Committee approved an increase to Ms. Fogarty’s base salary to be closer to the median of our compensation peer group in light of the more significant difference between her salary and the peer group median. The Committee also considered Ms. Fogarty’s fiscal year 2022 performance and compensation alignment among our senior executives in determining the appropriateness of this adjustment.
Senior Management Incentive Plan. Cash incentive awards under the SMIP reward our NEOs for achievement of operating and financial goals, in keeping with a performance-driven environment conducive to increasing stockholder value. In fiscal year 2023, the Compensation Committee approved earned SMIP awards for our NEOs equal to 128.7% of their individual target award opportunities based on non-GAAP operating income that was above the target goal but below the stretch goal and revenue that was above the stretch goal established by the Compensation Committee.

Non-GAAP operating income of $1,010 million excludes acquisition-related and integration expenses, including related restructuring costs, amortization of intangible assets, and share-based compensation.
(2) For purposes of determining fiscal year 2023 revenue performance under the SMIP, the Compensation Committee approved a negative constant currency adjustment to actual revenue of $7,115 million to reflect the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates in comparison to forecasted rates at the time the target revenue goal was approved. See page 40 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for a reconciliation of revenue in constant currency to revenue.
NEOs could earn between 0% and 150% of their target SMIP awards based on the Company’s performance with respect to the non-GAAP operating income and revenue goals, with a threshold opportunity at 50% of the target award. The SMIP goals approved by the Compensation Committee at the start of fiscal year 2023 were challenging, with target levels of revenue and non-GAAP operating income performance set above fiscal year 2022 results. At target, the initial goals represented year-over-year revenue growth of approximately 5.1% and expansion of non-GAAP operating income margin to approximately 14.2% in fiscal year 2023 from 14.0% in fiscal year 2022.
The amount of each NEO’s earned SMIP award was determined by reference to the NEO’s individual target opportunity, which was established by the Compensation Committee at the start of the fiscal year and expressed as a percentage of base salary. Generally, the Compensation Committee seeks to set target total cash compensation (base salary plus target cash incentive award) at a level that requires our NEOs to achieve above-market performance to earn total cash compensation that exceeds the median of our peer group.

Performance-Based, Long-Term Equity Incentives. Since 2022, our NEOs have participated in a performance-based, long-term equity incentive plan, under which they receive 50% of their annual equity awards in the form of performance-based RSUs (“PRSUs”) that are earned based on the Company’s revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth over three-year performance periods. Our NEOs are eligible to earn between 0% and 150% of the PRSUs in the aggregate at the end of the three-year performance period based on performance for each year during the performance period, as well as cumulative performance for the same goals over the full three-year period, if higher, with a threshold opportunity at 50% of the target award.
For the three-year performance-period ending November 30, 2025, our NEOs will have the opportunity to earn the number of shares set forth in the table below under the PRSUs that were granted in January 2023. The table also includes the target value of such awards, representing 50% of the NEO’s fiscal year 2023 equity incentive award value.

(1) Determined by multiplying the target number of shares by $138.97, the closing price of the Common Stock on the grant date. The grant date fair value set forth in the 2023 Summary Compensation Table is determined in accordance with ASC Topic 718 and reflects a reduced price per share of $136.19 because the unvested PRSUs do not receive dividends.
Performance will be measured annually based on revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth over the prior year actual performance, with one-third of the awards (at target) eligible to be earned each year. The PRSU goals approved by the Compensation Committee at the start of fiscal year 2023 were challenging, with target performance set at levels expected to represent above-market revenue growth and consistent EBITDA margin progression over the three-year performance period.



CNX_Logos_Primary Logo (1).jpg
2024 Proxy Statement 36

Table of Contents
For purposes of measuring performance under the PRSUs, adjusted EBITDA is operating income, adjusted to exclude depreciation, acquisition-related and integration expenses, including related restructuring costs, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation, and gain on divestitures and related transactions costs.
Time-Based Equity Awards. Our NEOs receive the other 50% of their annual equity awards in the form of time-vested restricted stock. Time-based equity awards foster share ownership by our team, align the interests of our management with those of our stockholders, and enhance retention by vesting over a multi-year vesting schedule. Our time-based equity awards have historically been subject to annual vesting over four years, which means that a significant portion of the equity awards remains at risk until several years following the grant date. Beginning in 2024, the time-based equity awards will vest over three years, which aligns more closely with market practice, while maintaining a significant portion of the awards at risk until several years following the grant date. We do not expect to regularly grant stock options.
The table below reports the number of shares of time-vested restricted stock received by each of our NEOs in January 2023 and the related grant date fair value of such awards, representing 50% of the NEO’s fiscal year 2023 equity incentive award value.

Historical TD SYNNEX Equity Awards. In addition to the Concentrix equity awards that our NEOs have received since the spin-off in December 2020, certain of our NEOs hold equity awards that were granted by TD SYNNEX prior to the spin-off. For most TD SYNNEX equity awards, upon the spin-off, the TD SYNNEX equity award was converted into a TD SYNNEX equity award and a Concentrix equity award that each relate to the same number of shares of TD SYNNEX common stock or Common Stock, as the case may be, as the original award. As a result, these NEOs continue to hold equity awards in TD SYNNEX common stock and equity awards in our Common Stock that were granted prior to the spin-off. As the employing entity, Concentrix incurs the expense and enjoys the tax benefit of TD SYNNEX equity awards that are held by Concentrix staff. All of these equity awards will be fully vested by the end of 2024.
Retirement Benefits. Our U.S.-based NEOs are eligible to participate in our 401(k) Plan, and Mr. Twomey participates in our defined contribution plan for U.K.-based staff. Both plans provide for matching contributions by the Company and are provided as part of a competitive executive compensation program that the Compensation Committee believes is necessary to attract and retain executive talent critical to our success. In addition, Mr. Valentine is entitled to certain benefits under the qualified and non-qualified portions of the Convergys defined benefit pension plan, which was frozen effective April 1, 2008 and we assumed in connection with our acquisition of Convergys in October 2018.
Other Benefits. Our named executive officers are entitled to participate in benefit programs generally available to all employees, including medical, dental and life insurance. In addition, Messrs. Caldwell, Valentine and Rosso participate in a Company-paid supplemental life insurance program and Messrs. Valentine and Rosso participate in a Company-paid supplemental long-term disability program. None of our executive officers receive any material perquisites or other personal benefits.

Other Compensation Policies and Practices
Stock Ownership Guidelines. The Compensation Committee believes that executive officers should have a significant equity interest in the Company to provide a direct incentive for management to build and sustain long-term stockholder value. Accordingly, to promote equity ownership and further align the interests of management with those of our stockholders, we maintain the following Stock Ownership Guidelines:
our CEO is required to hold Common Stock with a value of six times (6x) the CEO’s base salary; and
each of our other NEOs is required to hold Common Stock with a value of three times (3x) the NEO’s base salary.
Unearned performance awards and unexercised stock options (whether vested or unvested) held by our NEOs do not count toward this ownership requirement. The guidelines provide for a five-year transition period from the date of appointment or promotion to an executive officer role to comply.
Each of our NEOs (other than Ms. Fogarty) has exceeded the applicable ownership requirement. Ms. Fogarty, who joined the Company in an executive officer role in September 2021, is making progress toward achieving the applicable ownership requirement during the guidelines’ transition period. Until our NEOs have met the applicable ownership requirement, they are expected to retain at least 50% of the Common Stock earned through the vesting of equity awards (net of shares withheld to pay taxes), and Ms. Fogarty has complied with this requirement.
Timing of Equity Awards. Generally, we do not grant equity awards during regularly scheduled quarterly blackout windows or in anticipation of the release of material, nonpublic information. If the Compensation Committee or the Board approves an equity award at such a time, the grant date is deferred until the fourth trading day after the conclusion of our trading blackout period. This practice avoids potential undue windfalls that may arise if equity grants are made shortly prior to the release of material non-public information. Consistent with this policy, annual equity grants to our NEOs are made on the fourth trading day after the conclusion of our trading blackout period following the release of our annual earnings in January.
Clawback Policy. In January 2023, the Compensation Committee recommended and the Board approved a clawback policy that enables the Company to recoup or “claw back” incentive compensation paid to an executive officer within the prior three years in the event of a restatement of the Company’s financial statements. On December 1, 2023, the Board approved amendments to our clawback policy to align with new Nasdaq listing standards regarding clawback policies.
Anti-Hedging Policy. To promote alignment with the interests of our stockholders, under the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, our NEOs and our other staff are prohibited from engaging in hedging transactions related to Company securities, including put and call options and short sales.
No Tax Gross-Up for Change of Control. We are not party to any arrangements or agreements that require us to gross up executive officer taxes under Sections 280G and 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
Tax and Accounting Considerations. Although we consider the impact of tax and accounting consequences when developing and implementing our executive compensation programs, the Compensation Committee retains flexibility to make compensation decisions in its discretion regardless of the tax or accounting treatment. As a result of changes to Section 162(m) of the Code adopted as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in December 2017, compensation paid to covered employees is generally not deductible to the extent that it exceeds $1 million.

Employment Agreements. In November 2020, prior to the spin-off, we entered into an offer letter with Mr. Caldwell with respect to his continued service as CEO of Concentrix following the spin-off. The offer letter established Mr. Caldwell’s initial base salary and target SMIP award and provided for the grant of certain equity awards in connection with the spin-off. The offer letter also provides for certain payments to Mr. Caldwell in the event of a termination without cause and contains certain restrictive covenants, including non-competition and employee and client non-solicitation provisions, for the benefit of the Company. See “Potential Payments upon Termination or in Connection with a Change of Control.”
Other than Mr. Caldwell, we do not have employment agreements with any of our named executive officers who are U.S. residents. Consistent with general practice in the United Kingdom, our U.K. subsidiary has an employment agreement with Mr. Twomey, who is a U.K. resident, which provides for certain payments to Mr. Twomey in the event of a termination without cause and contains certain restrictive covenants, including non-competition and employee and client non-solicitation provisions, for the benefit of the Company. See “Potential Payments upon Termination or in Connection with a Change of Control.”

(1)    Represents the aggregate fair values of stock awards and option awards granted to our named executive officers, as determined in accordance with ASC Topic 718, on the applicable grant date or, if earlier, the service inception date. The grant date fair value of restricted stock awards was determined by multiplying the number of shares by $138.97, the closing price of the Common Stock on the grant date. The grant date fair value of PRSUs was determined by multiplying the target number of shares by a reduced price per share of $136.19 because the unvested PRSUs do not receive dividends. For other valuation assumptions used to calculate the fair value of our stock awards granted in fiscal year 2023, see Note 4 “Share-Based Compensation” to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2023. The grant date fair values of the NEOs’ 2023 PRSU awards, assuming achievement of the maximum performance level, would be: Mr. Caldwell, $4,997,764; Mr. Valentine, $764,162; Mr. Twomey, $859,767; Mr. Rosso, $668,829; and Ms. Fogarty, $385,690.
(2)    For fiscal year 2023, represents performance-based awards under the SMIP earned in fiscal year 2023 and paid in fiscal year 2024.
(3)    Mr. Valentine’s accumulated benefit under the Convergys frozen defined benefit pension plan declined by $3,555 in fiscal year 2023. The pension plan, which includes a qualified and a non-qualified portion, was assumed by Concentrix in the Convergys acquisition. The assumptions used to calculate the change in pension value are described in Note 1 to the Pension Benefits table below.

The dividends on the unvested TD SYNNEX restricted stock were paid by TD SYNNEX as the issuer of the equity, but the amounts are included in this column because the benefit relates to the NEO’s continuing employment (i.e., the restricted stock would be forfeited if the NEO’s employment with Concentrix terminates).

(1)    Prior to the spin-off, Mr. Caldwell was granted option awards by TD SYNNEX under its 2013 Stock Incentive Plan. In connection with the spin-off, each of these option awards was converted into a TD SYNNEX option and a Concentrix option with respect to the same number of shares as the original option, with an adjustment to the exercise prices to preserve the same ratio of the exercise price to the per share value of the underlying stock as existed prior to the spin-off. This table includes only the converted Concentrix option awards granted under the Concentrix 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, as well as any option awards granted by Concentrix following the spin-off.

Prior to the spin-off, Messrs. Caldwell, Rosso, Valentine, and Twomey were granted restricted stock awards in 2019 by TD SYNNEX under its 2013 Stock Incentive Plan. In connection with the spin-off, each award was converted into a TD SYNNEX award and a Concentrix award with respect to the same number of shares as the original award. This table reflects only the converted Concentrix awards granted under the Concentrix 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, as well as any restricted stock awards granted by Concentrix following the spin-off. However, the number of shares shown in the table for the October 2, 2019 grants reflects the total number of shares originally granted by TD SYNNEX. The 2019 awards vest as to 20% of the shares on each of the first five anniversaries of the grant date. Of the restricted stock granted to Mr. Caldwell in 2021, 83,528 shares vests as to 20% on each of the first five anniversaries of December 1, 2020, the effective date of the spin-off, and 4,594 shares vests as to 20% on each of the first five anniversaries of October 7, 2020. The restricted stock awards granted to Messrs. Valentine, Twomey and Rosso in 2021 vest as to 25% on each of the first four anniversaries of October 7, 2020. The restricted stock award granted to Ms. Fogarty in 2021 and the 2022 and 2023 restricted stock awards each vest as to 25% of the shares on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date.
(3)    The market or payout value of unvested restricted stock and unvested PRSUs was determined by multiplying the number of shares or units shown by $93.99, the closing price of the Common Stock on November 30, 2023, the last trading day of fiscal year 2023.

Caldwell, Valentine, Twomey and Rosso have unvested TD SYNNEX restricted stock awards, and Mr. Caldwell has TD SYNNEX option awards, that were granted by TD SYNNEX prior to our spin-off. In connection with the spin-off, each of these awards was converted into a TD SYNNEX award and a Concentrix award (reflected in the table above) with respect to the same number of shares as the original award, with an adjustment to the exercise prices of stock options to preserve the same ratio of the exercise price to the per share value of the underlying stock as existed prior to the spin-off.

PENSION BENEFITS
The following table sets forth information, as of November 30, 2023, regarding the present value of the benefits that are expected to be paid to Mr. Valentine under the qualified and non-qualified portion of the Convergys defined benefit pension plan, which we assumed in our acquisition of Convergys in October 2018. None of our other NEOs participate in qualified or non-qualified defined benefit plans. The Compensation Committee may elect to adopt qualified or non-qualified defined benefit plans in the future if the Compensation Committee determines that doing so is in our best interests.

Andre ValentineConvergys Corporation Pension Plan26279,613
Convergys Corporation Non-Qualified Excess Pension Plan2682,627
(1)    The present value of accumulated benefit was determined using a discount rate of 5.30% and assuming a 63% lump sum payment distribution at age 65 (the normal retirement age specified in the Convergys Corporation Pension Plan).
The Convergys Corporation Pension Plan is a cash-balance pension plan that was open to certain U.S.-resident employees of Convergys hired prior to April 1, 2007. The plan was frozen effective April 1, 2008, and no additional pension credits accrue for eligible employees. At the end of each year, active participants’ accounts are credited with interest at the rate of 4% per annum. At retirement or other termination of employment, an amount equivalent to the balance then credited to the account is payable to the participant in the form of a life annuity. In lieu of a life annuity, a participant may elect to receive the actuarial equivalent of their benefit in the form of a lump sum, or a joint and survivor annuity.
The non-qualified excess pension plan provides a pension benefit to employees, including Mr. Valentine, whose pension benefit under the Pension Plan is reduced or capped due to Internal Revenue Service limitations. Benefits are paid in ten annual installments or, if less, the number of annual installments (rounded up) equal to the value of the benefits divided by $50,000, commencing six months after a participant’s separation from service.
POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR IN CONNECTION WITH A CHANGE OF CONTROL
The following summarizes the potential payments payable to our NEOs upon termination of employment or a change of control under individual agreements or the Concentrix Change of Control Severance Plan in effect as of the end of fiscal year 2023. Although much of the compensation for our NEOs is performance-based and contingent upon achievement of financial goals, we believe that change of control arrangements provide important protection to our NEOs, are generally consistent with the practice of our peer companies, and are appropriate for the attraction and retention of executive talent.
In November 2020, we entered into an offer letter with Mr. Caldwell with respect to his continued service as our CEO following the spin-off. Under the terms of the offer letter, if Mr. Caldwell’s employment is terminated for a reason other than cause, disability or death and he signs a standard release of claims, he would be entitled to salary continuation for twelve months at a rate equal to the average of total salary and SMIP over the prior three years and paid COBRA for 12 months. In addition, under our Change of Control Severance Plan and Mr. Caldwell’s offer letter, if any of Messrs. Caldwell, Valentine or Rosso or Ms. Fogarty is terminated for a reason other than cause, disability or death within two months before or 12 months after a change of control (including a voluntary termination because of a reduction in salary or position or a relocation) and they sign a standard release of claims, they would be entitled to salary continuation for a minimum of 18 months plus one month per year of employment after the eighteenth year of employment, up to a maximum of 24 months, at a rate equal to the average of total salary and SMIP over the prior three years and paid COBRA for two years. Severance payments for these

individuals would be delayed for six months following termination of employment to the extent required by Section 409A.
In January 2019, consistent with general practice in the United Kingdom, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Twomey, who is a U.K. resident. Under his employment agreement, upon a termination without cause, Mr. Twomey is entitled to (i) six months’ notice of termination or, in lieu of notice, payment of his base salary for such period, and (ii) a pro rata portion of his target SMIP award through the date of termination (including the six-month notice period). As a non-U.S. person, Mr. Twomey is not eligible to participate in the Change of Control Severance Plan.
In addition to the foregoing, certain of our outstanding equity awards include a “double-trigger” change of control provision that would accelerate the unvested portion of the equity award if an NEO’s employment is terminated as a result of Involuntary Termination (as such term is defined in the relevant equity award agreement) within 24 months following a Change of Control.
The following table sets forth potential payments payable to our NEOs, under the circumstances described below, assuming that their employment was terminated or a change of control occurred on November 30, 2023.

CEO PAY RATIO
Consistent with the rules adopted under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, we calculated our CEO-to-median employee pay ratio for fiscal year 2023 in accordance with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K. We believe that the CEO pay ratio disclosure provided below is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.
To estimate the CEO pay ratio for fiscal year 2023, we first identified our median employee by examining the 2023 total fixed cash compensation (including base salary and fixed allowances but excluding variable incentive compensation) for all individuals who were employed by us on September 1, 2023, excluding (i) our CEO and (ii) the approximately 125,000 employees that joined us in connection with the Webhelp combination in September 2023. We used total fixed cash compensation because it is applied consistently across our organization and the target values of the excluded elements do not differ materially for those employees who could constitute our median compensated employee. Other than as set forth above, we included all employees, whether employed on a full-time, part-time, intern, temporary or seasonal basis, and annualized the compensation for any full-time employees that were not employed by us for all of fiscal year 2023. We did not exclude any employees working outside the United States and converted compensation paid in foreign currencies to U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rate at September 1, 2023. We did not make any assumptions, adjustments, or estimates with respect to total fixed cash compensation, except that we assumed that each intern, temporary or seasonal employee had total fixed cash compensation less than that of the median employee.
We employ more than 440,000 people in more than 70 countries around the world, more than 70% of which are located in Asia-Pacific, Latin America or Africa. After identifying our median employee based on total fixed cash compensation, we calculated annual total compensation for this employee using the same methodology we use for our named executive officers as set forth in the 2023 Summary Compensation Table included in this Proxy Statement. Based on this calculation, our median employee’s annual total compensation for 2023 was $4,388. Our CEO’s annual total compensation for 2023 was $10,235,151, as reflected in the 2023 Summary Compensation Table included in this Proxy Statement. As a result, we estimate that our CEO’s annual total compensation for 2023 was approximately 2,333 times that of our median employee’s annual total compensation for 2023. This ratio was affected by the factors discussed under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Elements of the Fiscal Year 2023 Compensation Program,” our mix of staff in different countries around the world, and currency exchange rates.
The CEO pay ratio disclosure rules of Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K provide significant flexibility regarding the methodology used to identify the median employee and calculate the median employee’s annual total compensation. Our methodology may differ materially from the methodology used by other companies to prepare their CEO pay ratio disclosures. Moreover, differences in employee populations, geographic locations, business strategies and compensation practices may contribute to a lack of comparability between our CEO pay ratio and the CEO pay ratio reported by other companies, including those within our industry.
PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE
This disclosure has been prepared in accordance with the SEC’s pay versus performance rules in Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K and does not reflect the value actually realized by our NEOs or how the Compensation Committee evaluates compensation decisions in light of Company or individual performance. The following tables and related disclosures provide information about (i) the total compensation of our principal executive officer (“PEO”) and our non-PEO NEOs (collectively, the “Other NEOs”) as presented in the 2023 Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”), (ii) the “compensation actually paid” to our PEO and our Other NEOs, as calculated pursuant to Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K (“CAP”),

(iii) certain financial performance measures, and (iv) the relationship of CAP to those financial performance measures.
Neither the CAP nor the amount reported in the SCT reflect the amount of compensation actually paid, earned, or received during the applicable year. A significant portion of the CAP reflected in the table below relates to changes in the value of unvested equity awards during the applicable year. Unvested equity awards remain subject to risk of forfeiture and possible future declines or increases in value based on changes in the trading price of our common stock. The value of equity awards ultimately realized by our NEOs cannot be determined until the awards vest or, in the case of stock options, until the awards are exercised.

(3)    The peer group total shareholder return in this column reflects the peer group comprised of our core CX solutions competitors that are publicly traded companies, as set forth in Part II, Item 5 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2023.
(4)    Non-GAAP operating income is operating income, adjusted to exclude acquisition-related and integration expenses, including related restructuring costs, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation, and gain on divestitures and related transaction costs. 65% of our NEOs’ SMIP awards for fiscal year 2023 were based on non-GAAP operating income performance for fiscal year 2023. See page 37 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2023 for a reconciliation of non-GAAP operating income to operating income, as reported.
2023 Performance Measures
In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the following table lists (in alphabetical order) the three financial performance measures that, in the Company’s assessment, represent the most important financial performance measures used to link CAP for our NEO to Company performance for fiscal year 2023, as further described in our Compensation Discussion and Analysis.

Relationship Between CAP and Performance
In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the charts below illustrate how our PEO’s CAP and Other NEOs’ average CAP compares to our Company’s financial performance as measured by our total shareholder return, our peer group total shareholder return, our net income, and our non-GAAP operating income. CAP, as calculated in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, reflects, among other things, adjustments to the fair value of equity awards during the years presented. Factors impacting the fair value of equity awards include the trading price of our common stock on vesting dates and at year end, as well as the projected and actual achievement of performance goals.
