Incentive-plan design — the Compensation Discussion & Analysis

Dayforce's executive compensation philosophy is centered on establishing a clear pay-for-performance linkage, ensuring that executive performance is closely aligned with business goals and the creation of long-term value for stockholders. The program utilizes a mix of base salary and short- and long-term incentives with varying time horizons to balance near-term and long-term strategic goals, with a significant portion of total direct compensation delivered through long-term equity awards to incentivize sustainable value creation.

Peer group, and who names Dayforce as a peer

Companies that benchmark against DAY

14 companies name DAY as a compensation peer

Each company listed discloses DAY 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 DAY in an earlier year and no longer does, and one whose own most recent disclosure is older than the last two seasons.
