(1)  The dollar amounts reported in column (b) are the amounts reported for Mr. Kenneth Wilson, our Chief Executive Officer since May 1, 2023, and for Mr. Mark Mondello, our Chief Executive Officer during the remainder of 2023 and for each of the other years shown in the “Total” column in our Summary Compensation Table. Refer to the “Compensation Matters – Summary Compensation Table”.

(2)  The dollar amounts reported in column (c) represent the amount of “compensation actually paid” to Messrs. Wilson and Mondello as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K and do not reflect the total compensation actually realized or received by Messrs. Wilson and Mondello, respectively. In accordance with these rules, these amounts reflect “Total Compensation” as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table for each year, adjusted as shown below. Equity values are calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, and the assumptions used are consistent with those disclosed on the grant date, with values changing primarily due to changes in the Company’s stock price and performance on the metrics applicable to those awards.

Compensation Actually Paid vs. Total Shareholder Return

Compensation Actually Paid and Company TSR

As demonstrated by the following chart, the amount of CAP to the Company’s CEOs for the applicable year and the average amount of CAP to the Company’s other NEOs as a group is aligned with the Company’s cumulative TSR over the three years presented in the table. The alignment of CAP reflects the fact that a significant portion of the compensation paid to our CEOs and to the other NEOs is comprised of equity awards, as described in more detail in “Compensation Matters – Compensation Discussion and Analysis.”

Compensation Actually Paid vs. Net Income

Compensation Actually Paid and Net Income

The following chart demonstrates the amount of CAP to the Company’s CEOs for the applicable year and the average amount of CAP to the Company’s other NEOs as a group in relation to the Company’s net income over the last three fiscal years. The Company does not use net income as a performance measure in the overall executive compensation program.

Compensation Actually Paid vs. Company Selected Measure

Compensation Actually Paid and CANCOI

The following graph demonstrates the amount of CAP to our CEOs and the average amount of CAP to the Company’s other NEOs as a group in relation to the Company’s CANCOI (as described above and in the Annex to this proxy statement), over the three years presented in the Pay Versus Performance table. While the Company uses numerous financial performance measures for the purpose of evaluating performance for the Company’s compensation programs, the Company has determined that CANCOI is the financial performance measure that, in the Company’s assessment, represents the most important performance measure (that is not otherwise required to be disclosed in the table) used by the Company to link CAP to the Company’s NEOs, for the most recently completed fiscal year, to Company performance. As described in more detail in “Compensation Matters – Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the Company utilizes CANCOI when setting goals in the Company’s annual cash incentive program because it views CANCOI as a key corporate metric that takes into account both revenue and expense.

Total Shareholder Return Vs Peer Group

Company TSR and S&P MidCap 400 Index

As demonstrated by the following chart, the Company’s cumulative TSR over the three-year period presented in the table was 240.37% while the cumulative TSR of the peer group presented for this purpose, the S&P MidCap 400 Index, was 43.65% over the three years presented in the table.

Tabular List, Table

Financial Performance Measures

As described in greater detail under “Compensation Matters – Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the Company’s executive compensation program reflects a variable pay-for-performance philosophy. The metrics that the Company uses for both our long-term and short-term incentive awards are selected based on an objective of incentivizing our NEOs to increase the value of our enterprise for our stockholders. In addition to CANCOI, our Company selected measure, the most important financial performance measures used by the Company to link executive compensation actually paid to the Company’s NEOs, for the most recently completed fiscal year, to the Company’s performance are as follows:

1. Margin%
