Peer group, and who names FLEXIBLE SOLUTIONS INTERNATIONAL as a peer
Companies that benchmark against FSI
No companies currently name FSI 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 | FLEXIBLE SOLUTIONS INTERNATIONAL INC | 2025 | Daniel O'Brien | $618,000 | $0 | $0 | $0 | $618,000 |
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.
