Companies that benchmark against ANNX
7 companies name ANNX as a compensation peer

Each company listed discloses ANNX in its own benchmarking peer group, as disclosed in each company's most recent proxy statement within the last two proxy seasons. Two companies are therefore absent by design: one that named ANNX in an earlier year and no longer does, and one whose own most recent disclosure is older than the last two seasons.

Incentive-plan design — the Compensation Discussion & Analysis

The company states that executive compensation is structured to support company and business objectives, as well as company culture. The Compensation Committee and Board regularly review the program to ensure fulfillment of compensation philosophy and goals.

CEO STI target (% of salary)NaN%
CEO LTI target (% of salary)—
Independent consultantAlpine Rewards
Clawback policyThe Board adopted a written compensation recovery policy in November 2023 in accordance with the Dodd-Frank Act and Nasdaq Listing Rules. Additionally, the CEO and CFO may be legally required to reimburse the Company for incentive-based compensation if financial results are restated due to material noncompliance with financial reporting requirements resulting from misconduct (Sarbanes-Oxley Section 304).
Anti-hedgingDirectors, officers, employees, and consultants are prohibited from purchasing financial instruments such as zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts, or otherwise engaging in transactions that hedge, or are designed to hedge, any decrease in the market value of the Company's equity securities.
Anti-pledgingNo director, officer, employee, or consultant may pledge company securities as collateral to secure loans, including holding company securities in a 'margin' account.
