A dash means the company reported no figure in that column; 0 means it reported zero. Figures are as printed in the filing, without adjustment.

Three-year trend — total compensation per named executive

Prior-year totals as disclosed in the corresponding proxy; deltas are computed values with the derivation shown in the register.

No insider equity transactions reported since the proxy statement.

The Company's executive compensation program is designed to: attract, motivate, reward and retain highly qualified and talented individuals, motivate executives to improve the overall performance and profitability of the Company and reward them when specific measurable results have been achieved, encourage accountability by making executive compensation decisions based on each executive's individual performance and contributions, tie incentive awards to performance metrics that we believe drive the performance of the Company's Common Stock over the long term to further reinforce the linkage between the interests of the Company's shareholders and employees, link executives interests with shareholders interests by generally providing a significant portion of targeted total direct compensation in the form of stock-based incentives, and ensure compensation levels are both externally competitive and internally equitable.

Rows are labeled by annual-meeting year, with the meeting date beside each; the vote held in a given year acts on the prior fiscal year's compensation.

Say-on-pay — history, company's computation

a. Approved under the standard stated in the filing — “Abstentions are not treated as votes cast at the Annual Meeting;”.

b. Approved under the standard stated in the filing — “Abstentions are not treated as votes cast at the Annual Meeting;”.

c. Approved under the standard stated in the filing — “Therefore, withhold votes and abstentions will not be counted in determining the outcome of the vote for any of Proposals I, II and III.”.

Approval percentages are the company's own reported computations under its own stated standard, not recomputed by Velarion. Where a company does not state a standard, none is assumed.

The compensation peer group as the company disclosed it in its own proxy — the reference set behind the percentile above.

Of the companies Emcore names as compensation peers, which name it back in their own disclosed peer groups. A peer set the market reciprocates reads differently from one selected in a single direction.

Reciprocity shown where the peer's own current proxy has been read — each mark is cited in the register to that peer's filing. A dash means the peer's current proxy was read and names no reciprocal group including Emcore.

Most recent fiscal-year chief executive compensation at each disclosed peer, taken from that company's own proxy statement.

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.

Read from each company's Compensation Discussion and Analysis: annual incentive payout as a percentage of target, the disclosed long-term vehicle mix, whether performance-share measures include a total shareholder return component, and the retained compensation consultant. “Not disclosed” appears only where the company's filing does not state the item.

Each figure's location is given both for the eye (section · page · table · row · column) and for a script (table/row/column index and exact character span in the filed document). Any figure can be independently confirmed against the source.
