Incentive-plan design — the Compensation Discussion & Analysis
Xperi's executive compensation program is designed to reward executive officers in alignment with the overall strategic and financial performance of the Company with the ultimate goal of building long-term stockholder value. The program utilizes a 'pay-for-performance' philosophy, linking a significant portion of target total direct compensation to the achievement of strong financial performance and a balanced mix of performance metrics established in advance by the Compensation Committee.

Each company listed discloses XPER 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 XPER 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
