Companies that benchmark against TG
2 companies name TG as a compensation peer

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

Disclosed peer group — fiscal year 2025

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

10a

Peer reciprocity

Of the companies Tredegar 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.

Clearwater Paper Corporation (CLW) AdvanSix Inc. (ASIX)30 CSW Industrials, Inc. (CSW) Janus International Group, Inc. (JBI)31 Insteel Industries, Inc. (IIIN)32 American Vanguard Corporation (AVD) Albany International Corp. (AIN)33 Apogee Enterprises, Inc. (APOG)34

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 Tredegar.

10b

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.
