As required by pay versus performance rules adopted by the SEC on August 25, 2022 and in effect for the first time for this proxy statement, the below Pay Versus Performance table (“PVP Table”) provides information about compensation for the NEOs identified in this proxy statement, as well as those identified in the proxy statements for our 2023 and 2022 annual meetings (each of the years covered being referred to herein as a “Covered Year”). The PVP Table also provides information about the results for certain financial performance measures during those same Covered Years.

Non-GAAP Measure Description [Text Block]
(4) Adjusted diluted earnings per share (“Adjusted EPS”) is our company-selected measure. Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure. Refer to Appendix A for a reconciliation of Adjusted EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for 2023. Adjusted EPS was calculated in the same manner in fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, except our calculation of Adjusted EPS in fiscal 2023 began excluding the impact of non-service related components of net periodic benefit/ cost for our defined benefit pension plans. Appendix A includes a discussion of this adjustment. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EPS for fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021 as reported in this table and utilized for compensation decisions made with respect to fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021 performance, refer to page 36 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022.
