Incentive-plan design — the Compensation Discussion & Analysis
The company's compensation objectives are to attract and retain key executive officers, recognize and reward overall company and individual performance, and align executive incentives with stockholders' interests. A significant portion of realizable compensation is tied to company performance and stock price through stock-based compensation, which creates a long-term incentive to create stockholder value.

Peer group, and who names CURIS as a peer
Companies that benchmark against CRIS
No companies currently name CRIS as a compensation peer in their most recent disclosure.
This is the complete answer, not a partial one — the list is never padded.
Chief executive pay against the peer group
Most recent fiscal-year chief executive compensation at each disclosed peer, taken from that company’s own proxy statement.
| Rank | Company | FY | Chief executive | Salary | Stock awards | Option awards | Non-equity incentive | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | CURIS INC | 2025 | James Dentzer | $672,200 | $0 | $736,169 | $218,196 | $1,659,756 |
Each peer’s compensation is from its most recently filed proxy; fiscal years differ by company. Each peer’s figures come from its own filings; the subject company is highlighted. Peers whose chief executive compensation is outside our coverage universe are stated as such, never left blank.
