vote, or if I return a proxy card or otherwise vote without giving specific voting instructions, what happens?

If you are a stockholder of record and do not vote by telephone, through the Internet, by completing the printed proxy card that may be delivered to you or in person at the Annual Meeting, your shares will not be voted.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker or Bank

If you are a beneficial owner and do not instruct your broker, bank or other agent how to vote your shares, the question of whether your broker or nominee will still be able to vote your shares depends on whether the particular proposal is considered to be a routine matter under applicable rules. Brokers and nominees can use their discretion to vote “uninstructed” shares with respect to matters that are considered to be “routine” under applicable rules but not with respect to “non-routine” matters. Under applicable rules and interpretations, “non-routine” matters are matters that may substantially affect the rights or privileges of stockholders, such as mergers, stockholder proposals, elections of directors (even if not contested), executive compensation (including


3

any advisory stockholder votes on executive compensation and on the frequency of stockholder votes on executive compensation), and certain corporate governance proposals, even if management-supported. Accordingly, your broker or nominee may not vote your shares on Proposal 1 without your instructions, but may vote your shares on Proposal 2 even in the absence of your instruction.

What if I return a proxy card or otherwise vote but do not make specific choices?


TABLE OF CONTENTS

If you return a signed and dated proxy card or otherwise vote without marking voting selections, your shares will be voted, as applicable, “FOR” the election of each of the twoall seven nominees for director, and “FOR” the ratification of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016.2024, “FOR” the advisory approval of executive officer compensation and for “ONE YEAR” as the preferred frequency of advisory votes to approve executive officer compensation. If any other matter is properly presented at the Annual Meeting, your proxyholder (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will vote your shares using his or her best judgment.

If I am a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and I do not provide my broker or bank with voting instructions, what happens?
If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and you do not instruct your broker, bank or other agent how to vote your shares, your broker, bank or other agent may still be able to vote your shares in its discretion. Under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), brokers, banks and other securities intermediaries that are subject to NYSE rules may use their discretion to vote your “uninstructed” shares with respect to matters considered to be “routine” under NYSE rules, but not with respect to “non-routine” matters. Proposals 1, 3 and 4 are considered to be “non-routine” under NYSE rules meaning that your broker may not vote your shares on those proposals in the absence of your voting instructions. However, Proposal 2 is considered to be a “routine” matter under NYSE rules meaning that if you do not return voting instructions to your broker, bank or other agent by its deadline, your shares may be voted by your broker, bank or other agent in its discretion on Proposal 2.
If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, in order to ensure your shares are voted in the way you would prefer, you must provide voting instructions to your broker, bank or other agent by the deadline provided in the materials you receive from your broker, bank or other agent.
Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

We will pay for the entire cost of soliciting proxies. In addition to these proxy materials, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by other means of remote communication. Directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies. We engaged Alliance Advisors to assist us with our shareholder engagement process, and we may pay them an estimated fee of $29,000 plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses if they assist us in soliciting proxies. We may also reimburse brokerage firms, banks and other agents for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners.

What does it mean if I receive more than one Notice?

If you receive more than one Notice, your shares may be registered in more than one name or in different accounts. Please follow the voting instructions on the Notices to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Can I change my vote after submitting my proxy?

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

However, if we hold our 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after June 5, 2025 (the one-year anniversary date of the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders), then timely notice of a stockholder proposal that is not intended to be included in our proxy statement must be received not earlier than the close of business on the 165th day prior to the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and not later than the close of business on the later of the 135th day prior to the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is first made. You are also advised to review our Bylaws, which contain additional requirements about advance notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations.

of those proposals.

What are “broker non-votes”?

As discussed above, when a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” does not give instructions to the broker or nominee holding the shares as to how to vote on matters deemed to be “non-routine,” the broker or nominee cannot vote the shares. These unvoted shares are counted as “broker non-votes.”

Proposals 1, 3 and 4 are considered to be “non-routine” under NYSE rules and we, therefore, expect broker non-votes to exist in connection with those proposals.

As a reminder, if you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, in order to ensure your shares are voted in the way you would prefer, you must provide voting instructions to your broker, bank or other agent by the deadline provided in the materials you receive from your broker, bank or other agent.
How many votes are needed to approve each proposal?

(1)
This proposal is considered to be a “routine” matter under NYSE rules. Accordingly, if you hold your shares in street name and do not provide voting instructions to your broker, bank or other agent that holds your shares, your broker, bank or other agent has discretionary authority under NYSE rules to vote your shares on this proposal.
​
What is the quorum requirement?

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present if stockholders holding at least a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote are present at the Annual Meeting in person or represented by proxy. On the record date, there were 45,650,09250,188,716 shares outstanding and entitled to vote.

Thus, the holders of 25,094,359 shares must be present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting to have a quorum.

Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you vote in person at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement. If there is no quorum, the holders of a majority of shares present at the meeting in person or represented by proxy may adjourn the meeting to another date.

How can I find out the results of the voting at the Annual Meeting?

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. In addition, final voting results will be published in a current report on Form 8-K that we expect to file within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Form 8-K within four business days after the Annual Meeting, we intend to file a Form8-K to publish preliminary results and, within four business days after the final results are known to us, file an additional Form 8-K to publish the final results.

PROPOSAL 1

 — 

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Our

The Board ispresently has seven members. All current directors, Messrs. Clarke, McAdam, Nevin, Whall, Evans and Trundle and Ms. Wu, have been nominated for re-election at the Annual Meeting by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. If elected at the Annual Meeting, each of these nominees would serve until the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until his or her successor has been duly elected and qualified, or, if sooner, until his or her death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal.
In 2021, we amended our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (“Certificate of Incorporation”) and Bylaws to phase out our classified Board structure which consisted of directors divided into three classes. Each class consists, as nearly as possible, of one-third of the total number of directors,classes — Class I, Class II and Class III — with each class hasserving staggered, three-year terms. Pursuant to the amendments, the terms of all incumbent directors will expire at the 2024 Annual Meetings of Stockholders, at which time our Board structure will no longer be classified. As a three-yearresult, beginning with the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, all director nominees, if elected, will hold office for a one-year term. Vacancies on the Board may be filled only by persons elected by a majority of the remaining directors. A director elected by the Board to fill a vacancy, in a class, including vacancies created by an increase in the number of directors, shall serve foruntil the remaindernext Annual Meeting of the full term of that classStockholders and until the director’s successor is duly elected and qualified.

The Board presently has six members. There are two directors in the class whose term of

Directors will hold office expires in 2016. If elected at the Annual Meeting, each of these nominees would serve until the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until his or her successor has beenwill be duly elected and qualified, or if sooner, until theearlier, such director’s death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal. Messrs. Clarke and Whall were previously elected at the 2022 Annual Meeting as directors with terms expiring at the 2023 Annual Meeting, Messrs. Evans and McAdam and Ms. Wu were previously elected as Class II directors with terms expiring at the 2023 Annual Meeting, and Messrs. Trundle and Nevin were previously elected as Class III directors with terms expiring at the 2024 Annual Meeting. Accordingly, each of the seven directors has been nominated for a one-year term expiring at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
It is our policy to invite directors and nominees for director to attend the Annual Meeting.

All of our then-current directors attended the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders in person.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Independence of the Board of Directors

As required under NASDAQNasdaq Stock Market (“NASDAQ”Nasdaq”) listing rules, a majority of the members of a listed company’s board of directors must qualify as “independent,” as affirmatively determined by the company’s

8

board. The Board consults with the Company’s counsel to ensure that the Board’s determinations are consistent with relevant securities and other laws and regulations regarding the definition of “independent,” including those set forth in pertinent listing standards of NASDAQ,Nasdaq, as in effect from time to time.

Consistent with these considerations, after review of all relevant identified transactions or relationships between each director, or any of his or her family members, and the Company, our senior management and our independent registered public accounting firm, the Board has affirmatively determined that the following fivesix directors are independent directors within the meaning of the applicable NASDAQNasdaq listing standards: Messrs. Clarke, McAdam, Panero, ShattuckNevin, Whall, Admiral Evans and Terkowitz.Ms. Wu. In making this determination, the Board found that none of these directors or nominees for director had a material or other disqualifying relationship with us. Mr. Trundle is not an independent director by virtue of his employment with us.

Board Leadership Structure

The Board has an independent chair, Mr. McAdam, who has authority, among other things, to call and preside over Board meetings, including meetings of the independent directors, to set meeting agendas and to determine materials to be distributed to the Board. Accordingly, the Chairman has substantial ability to shape the work of the Board. We believe that separation of the positions of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer reinforces the independence of the Board in its oversight of our business and affairs. In addition, we believe that having an independent Chairman creates an environment that is more conducive to objective evaluation and oversight of management’s performance, increasing management accountability and improving the ability of the Board to monitor whether management’s actions are in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders. As a result, we believe that having an independent Chairman can enhance the effectiveness of the Board as a whole.

Role of the Board in Risk Oversight

One of the Board’s key functions is informed oversight of our risk management process. The Board does not have a standing risk management committee, but rather administers this oversight function directly through the Board as a whole, as well as through various Board standing committees that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. In particular, our Board is responsible for overseeing the risk management activities of management as well as monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, including a determination of the nature and level of risk appropriate for our Company. Risk assessment reports are periodically provided by management to the Board, and management regularly provides updates to the Board related to legal and compliance risks and cyber security initiatives, including our ability to respond to any cyber-attacks.
Our Audit Committee has the responsibility to consider and discuss our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures, including guidelines and policies to govern the process by which risk assessment and risk management is undertaken. The Audit Committee also monitors compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee monitors the effectiveness of our Corporate Governance Guidelines, including whether they are successful in preventing illegal or improper liability-creating conduct. Our Compensation Committee assesses and monitors whether any of our compensation policies and programs has the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking.
It is the responsibility of the chairperson of each committee of the Board to report findings regarding material risk exposures to the Board as quickly as possible. The Board has delegated to the Chairman the responsibility of coordinating between the Board and management with regard to the determination and implementation of responses to any problematic risk management issues.

Audit Committee

However, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee retains the right to modify these qualifications from time to time.

In conducting this assessment, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee typically considers diversity of backgrounds, which is construed broadly to include differences of viewpoint, age, skillsskill, gender, race and other individual characteristics; and such other factors as it deems appropriate given the current needs of the Board and the Company, to maintain a balance of knowledge, experience and capability.

In the case of new director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also determines whether the nominee is independent for NASDAQNasdaq purposes, which determination is based upon applicable NASDAQNasdaq listing standards, applicable SEC rules and regulations and the advice of counsel, if necessary. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee then typically uses its network of contactsa professional search firm to compile a list of potential candidates, but may also engage, if it deems appropriate, a professional search firm.candidates. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee conducts any appropriate and necessary inquiries into the backgrounds and qualifications of possible candidates after considering the function and needs of the Board.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” PROPOSAL 2.

22
TABLE OF CONTENTS​

PROPOSAL 3 — 
ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The Board recognizes the interests our investors have in the compensation of our named executive officers. In recognition of that interest and as required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are providing our stockholders with the opportunity to vote to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement in accordance with SEC rules.
This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on our named executive officers’ compensation as a whole. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this Proxy Statement. The compensation of our named executive officers subject to the vote is disclosed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables, and the related narrative disclosure contained in this Proxy Statement. As discussed in those disclosures, we believe that our compensation policies and decisions are based on principles that reflect a “pay-for-performance” philosophy and are strongly aligned with our stockholders’ interests and consistent with current market practices. Compensation of our named executive officers is designed to enable us to attract and retain talented and experienced executives to lead us successfully in a competitive environment.
Accordingly, the Board is asking our stockholders to indicate their support for the compensation of our named executive officers as described in this Proxy Statement by casting a non-binding advisory vote “FOR” the following resolution:
“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion, is hereby APPROVED.”
Because the vote is advisory, the result will not be binding on the Board or Compensation Committee. Nevertheless, the views expressed by our stockholders, whether through this say-on-pay vote or otherwise, are important to management and the Board and, accordingly, the Board and the Compensation Committee intend to consider the results of this vote in making determinations in the future regarding executive compensation arrangements.
Vote Required
Advisory (non-binding) approval of Proposal 3 requires the approval of the holders of a majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” PROPOSAL 3.

23
TABLE OF CONTENTS​

PROPOSAL 4 — 
ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF SOLICITATION OF ADVISORY SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The Dodd-Frank Act and Section 14A of the Exchange Act also enable our stockholders, at least once every six years, to indicate their preference regarding how frequently we should solicit a non-binding advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules, such as Proposal 3 above. By voting on this Proposal 4, stockholders may indicate whether they would prefer to hold a non-binding vote to approve named executive officer compensation once every one, two or three years. Our prior say-on-frequency vote was held in 2018. At that year’s annual meeting, our stockholders agreed with the Board’s recommendation that advisory votes to approve the compensation of our named executive officers should be submitted every year.
After considering the benefits and consequences of each alternative, the Board again recommends that the advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers be submitted to stockholders each year.
The Board believes that an annual advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers continues to be the most appropriate policy for us at this time. While our executive compensation program is designed to promote the creation of stockholder value over the long term, the Board recognizes that executive compensation disclosures are made annually, and holding an annual advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers provides us with more direct and immediate feedback on our executive compensation program, policies and disclosures. However, stockholders should note that because a proposed annual advisory vote would occur well after the beginning of the compensation year, and because the different elements of our executive compensation programs are designed to operate in an integrated manner and to complement one another, in many cases it may not be appropriate or feasible to change our compensation plans and arrangements for our executive officers in consideration of any single year’s advisory vote by the time of the following year’s annual meeting of stockholders. We believe, however, that an annual advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers is consistent with our practice of seeking input and engaging in dialogue with our stockholders on corporate governance matters.
Vote Required
While the Board believes that its recommendation is appropriate at this time, the stockholders are not voting to approve or disapprove that recommendation, but are instead asked to indicate their preferences, on an advisory basis, as to whether the non-binding advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers should be held every year, every other year or every three years; stockholders may also abstain from voting on this proposal. The option among those choices (other than abstention) that receives the greatest number of votes cast at the Annual Meeting by the holders of shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on this matter will be deemed to be the frequency preferred by the stockholders.
The Board and the Compensation Committee value the opinions of the stockholders in this matter and, to the extent there is any significant vote in favor of one frequency over the other options, even if less than a majority, the Board will consider the stockholders’ concerns and evaluate any appropriate next steps. However, because this vote is advisory and, therefore, not binding on the Board or us, the Board may decide that it is in the best interests of the stockholders that we hold an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers more or less frequently than the option preferred by the stockholders. The vote will not be construed to create or imply any change or addition to the fiduciary duties of the Company or the Board. The next advisory vote on the frequency of future stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers is expected to occur at the 2030 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE IN FAVOR OF “ONE YEAR” FOR PROPOSAL 2.

Summary of Fiscal 2023 Performance and Connection to Executive Compensation
For our fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, we achieved strong growth and significantly improved business results that provide context for stockholders reviewing our executive compensation disclosures, with highlights that included:
•
SaaS and license revenue increased 9.4% to $569.2 million, compared to $520.4 million in 2022.
​
•
Total revenue increased 4.6% to $881.7 million, compared to $842.6 million in 2022.
​
•
Net income attributable to common stockholders increased 43.9% to $81.0 million, compared to $56.3 million in 2022.
​
•
Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below), a non-GAAP measurement of operating performance, increased to $154.0 million in 2023 from $146.8 million in 2022.
​
SaaS and license revenue and adjusted EBITDA are each person,elements of our cash incentive compensation plan for fiscal year 2023. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is prepared as a complement to our financial results prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). We define adjusted EBITDA as our net income before interest expense, interest income, certain activity within other (expense)/​income, net, provision for/(benefit from) income taxes, amortization and depreciation expense, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expense and legal costs and settlement fees incurred and received in connection with non-ordinary course litigation and other disputes, particularly costs involved in ongoing intellectual property litigation. Please see the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on February 22, 2024, for a more detailed discussion of our fiscal 2023 financial results and, beginning on page 75 in the

Fiscal 2023 Executive Compensation Highlights
The important features of our executive compensation program for fiscal 2023 include the following:
•
A substantial portion of executive pay is tied to performance.   We structure a significant portion of our named executive officers’ compensation to be variable, at risk and tied directly to our measurable performance. For 2023, 91% of our Chief Executive Officer’s target total compensation and an average of 82% of our other named executive officers’ target total compensation was linked to short- and long-term performance, consisting of target 2023 performance-based bonus opportunity and the grant date fair value of equity awards granted during 2023.
​
[MISSING IMAGE: pc_ceotrgt-4c.jpg]
​
*
“Target Pay” consists of 2023 annual base salary rate, 2023 target performance-based bonus opportunity and the grant date fair value of equity awards granted during 2023, as reported in the Summary Compensation Table.
​
•
Our Chief Executive Officer’s 2023 target total compensation (at his request) is well below the 25th percentile of market data (using 2022 market data).
​
•
Our executive bonuses are dependent on meeting corporate objectives.   Our annual performance-based bonus opportunities for all of our named executive officers are dependent upon our achievement of annual corporate objectives established each year and the individual officer’s contributions towards such corporate objectives. Regardless of performance, bonus payouts are capped at 150% of target bonus.
​
•
We emphasize long-term equity incentives.   Equity awards are an integral part of our executive compensation program and comprise the primary “at-risk” portion of our named executive officer compensation package. We granted options and restricted stock unit awards to each of our named executive officers in 2023 to align our executive officers’ interests with those of our stockholders by providing a continuing financial incentive to maximize long-term value for our stockholders and by encouraging our executive officers to remain in our long-term employ.
​
•
We structure long-term equity award vesting over a five-year period.   Our restricted stock unit and stock option awards are subject to a longer vesting period than typical practice of our peer companies and the general market within which we compete, consistent with our retention objectives and intention to tie equity compensation to stockholder value over the longer-term.
​
•
We provide very limited severance and change in control benefits.   None of our named executive officers are entitled to severance or change in control benefits, other than relatively modest severance benefits provided to Mr. Valenzuela, our Chief Financial Officer, pursuant to his 2016 offer letter agreement, and limited pro rata vesting for our Chief Executive Officer’s stock option award to provide credit for services rendered, and accelerated vesting of certain of our Chief Financial Officer’s
​

TABLE OF CONTENTS

outstanding equity awards in connection with certain change in control events in which he is not asked to provide transition services for at least twelve months thereafter.
•
We do not provide our executive officers with any excise tax “gross-ups” on severance or change in control payments.
​
•
We maintain a clawback policy.   In order to recoup certain types of incentive compensation from an officer in the event that his or her misconduct relates to a restatement of our financial results, we have implemented a clawback policy.
​
•
We generally do not provide special fringe benefits or excessive perquisites to our executives that are not available to all employees.
​
•
We do not provide our executive officers with any special health or welfare benefits that are not available to all employees.   Our executive officers participate in broad-based company-sponsored health and welfare benefits programs on the same basis as our other full-time, salaried employees.
​
•
Our Compensation Committee retains an independent third-party compensation consultant.   Our independent compensation consultant advises the Compensation Committee on market practices, including identifying a peer group of affiliated persons, who is known by us to beneficially own more than 5%companies, so that our Compensation Committee can regularly assess our executive compensation program against these peer companies, the general marketplace and other industry data points.
​
Stockholder Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation and Stockholder Outreach
At our 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, we held our sixth annual “say on pay” advisory vote, and our stockholders approved, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our common stock;named executive officers as disclosed in our 2023 proxy statement. The proposal was supported by approximately 93% of the total votes cast. Our Compensation Committee reviewed the final vote results for the proposal and given the level of support, concluded that our compensation program provided a competitive performance package that incentivizes our named executive officers and encourages their retention over the long-term. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee determined not to make any significant changes to our executive compensation policies or decisions as a result of the vote; however, our Compensation Committee determined to monitor and continually evaluate our compensation program going forward in light of our stockholders’ views and our transforming business needs.

We value our stockholders’ continued interest in Alarm.com. We are committed to maintaining an active dialogue to understand the priorities and concerns of our stockholders on the topics of executive compensation and corporate governance. We believe that ongoing engagement builds mutual trust and understanding with our stockholders.
During late 2023 and the early part of 2024, as part of our stockholder engagement, we reached out to our largest stockholders to gain a better understanding of their views regarding our corporate governance and executive compensation program, policies and practices. Specifically, we reached out to 27 of our largest stockholders representing approximately 76% of our issued and outstanding shares as of December 31, 2023. We engaged in substantive discussions with a number of our top holders. In the course of these discussions, we received valuable feedback on our corporate governance and executive compensation program, policies and practices. Our Compensation Committee will monitor and continue to evaluate our executive compensation program going forward in light of our stockholders’ views and our transforming business needs and expects to consider the outcome of our “say on pay” votes and our stockholders’ views when making future executive compensation decisions.
Objectives, Philosophy and Elements of Executive Compensation
Our compensation program aims to achieve the following main objectives:
•
attract, retain and reward highly qualified executives;
​
•
provide incentives that motivate and reward for achievement of our key performance goals that increase stockholder value over the long term;
​

31
TABLE OF CONTENTS

•
align our executives’ interests with those of our stockholders; and
​
•
link pay to company performance.
​
Our executive compensation program generally consists of, and is intended to strike a balance among, the following three principal components: base salary, annual performance-based bonuses and long-term incentive compensation. We also provide our executive officers with benefits available to all our employees, including retirement benefits under our 401(k) plan and participation in employee benefit plans. The following chart summarizes the three main elements of compensation, their objectives and key features.
Element of Compensation​​Objectives​​Key Features​
Base Salary (fixed cash)​​Provides financial stability and security through a fixed amount of cash for performing job responsibilities.​​Fixed compensation that is periodically reviewed and adjusted if and when appropriate; determined based on a number of factors, including each executive officer’s individual performance, experience, skills, level of responsibility and the breadth, scope and complexity of the position as well as the competitive marketplace for executive talent specific to our industry and the overall performance of our Company, and by reference, in part, to market data provided by our independent compensation consultant.​
Performance Bonus (at-risk cash)​​Motivates and rewards for attaining key annual corporate performance goals and individual contributions that relate to our key business objectives.​​Target bonus amounts are periodically reviewed and determined based upon positions that have similar impact on the organization and competitive bonus opportunities in our market. Bonus opportunities are dependent upon specific corporate performance objectives consistent with our long-term strategic plan and, for executives other than our CEO, individual performance objectives that relate to the officer’s role and expected contribution toward reaching our corporate goals, generally determined by the Compensation Committee and communicated at the beginning of the year. Actual bonus amounts earned are determined after the end of the year, taking into account achievement of corporate and individual performance objectives.​
Long-Term Incentive (at-risk equity)​​
Motivates and rewards for long-term Company performance; aligns executives’ interests with stockholder interests and changes in stockholder value.
Attracts highly qualified executives and encourages their continued employment over the long term.
​​
Equity incentives are generally reviewed annually and may be granted during the first half of the year or as appropriate during the year for new hires, promotions, or other special circumstances, such as to encourage retention, or as a reward for significant achievement.
Individual awards are determined based on a number of factors, including current corporate and individual performance and market data provided by our independent compensation consultant.
Equity grants have historically been provided primarily in the form of stock options. In recent years, restricted stock unit grants have been awarded in addition to stock option grants.
​

32
TABLE OF CONTENTS

We focus on providing a competitive compensation package to each of our executive officers that provides significant short- and long-term incentives for the achievement of measurable corporate objectives. We believe that this approach provides an appropriate blend of short-term and long-term incentives to maximize stockholder value.
We do not have formal policies for allocating compensation among salary, performance bonus awards and equity grants, short-term and long-term compensation or among cash and non-cash compensation. Instead, the Compensation Committee uses its judgment to establish a total compensation program for each named executive officer that is a mix of current, short-term and long-term incentive compensation, and cash and non-cash compensation, that it believes appropriate to achieve the goals of our executive compensation program and our corporate objectives. However, we historically have structured a significant portion of the named executive officers’ total target compensation so that it is comprised of performance-based bonus opportunities and long-term equity awards granted based on performance, in order to align the executive officers’ incentives with the interests of our stockholders and our corporate goals.
How We Determine Executive Compensation
Role of our Compensation Committee, Management and the Board
The Compensation Committee is appointed by the Board to assist with the Board’s oversight responsibilities with respect to the Company’s compensation policies, plans and programs, administration of Company equity plans and its responsibilities related to the compensation of the Company’s executive officers, directors and senior management, as appropriate. For details on the Compensation Committee’s oversight of the executive compensation program, see the section of this Proxy Statement titled “Information Regarding Committees of the Board of Directors—Compensation Committee.” Our Compensation Committee consists solely of independent members of the Board.
The Compensation Committee meets periodically throughout the year to manage and evaluate our executive compensation program, and generally determines, which may be subject to final Board approval, the principal components of compensation (base salary, performance bonus and equity awards) for our executive officers on an annual basis; however, decisions may occur at other times for new hires, promotions or other special circumstances as our Compensation Committee determines appropriate. The Compensation Committee does not delegate authority to approve executive officer compensation. The Compensation Committee does not maintain a formal policy regarding the timing of equity awards to our executive officers, but typically approves equity awards at a regularly scheduled meeting with grant dates occurring on a pre-specified date following such approval.
Our Compensation Committee works with and receives information and analyses from management, including within our legal, finance and human resources departments, and our Chief Executive Officer, and considers such information and analyses in determining the structure and amount of compensation to be paid to our executive officers, including our named executive officers.
Our Chief Executive Officer evaluates and provides to the Compensation Committee executive officer performance assessments and management’s recommendations and proposals regarding executive officer compensation programs and decisions affecting base salaries, performance bonuses, equity compensation and other compensation-related matters outside of the presence of any other named executive officers. However, our Compensation Committee retains the final authority to make all compensation decisions. While the Chief Executive Officer discusses his recommendations with the Compensation Committee, he does not participate in the deliberations concerning, or the determination of, his own compensation.
From time to time, various other members of management and other employees as well as outside advisors or consultants may be invited by the Compensation Committee to make presentations, provide financial or other background information or advice or otherwise participate in Compensation Committee or Board meetings. Members of management, including our Chief Executive Officer, may attend portions of our Compensation Committee’s meetings; however, neither our Chief Executive Officer nor any other member of management is present during decisions regarding his compensation.
Our legal, finance, and human resources departments work with our Chief Executive Officer to design and develop recommended compensation programs for our named executive officers and other senior

33
TABLE OF CONTENTS

executives, to recommend changes to existing compensation programs, to recommend financial and other performance targets to be achieved under those programs, to prepare analyses of financial data, to prepare peer data comparisons and other briefing materials, and ultimately to implement the decisions of the Compensation Committee.
Role of Compensation Consultant
The Compensation Committee has the sole authority to retain compensation consultants to assist in its evaluation of executive compensation, including the authority to approve the consultant’s reasonable fees and other retention terms. The Compensation Committee retained Compensia as its compensation consultant to assist in making executive compensation decisions for 2023. Compensia’s work included providing market research and analysis to assist the Compensation Committee in developing 2023 compensation levels, including for our named executive officers, and outlining trends and regulatory developments.
The Compensation Committee has analyzed (most recently in 2023), whether the work of Compensia as a compensation consultant raised any conflict of interest, taking into account relevant factors in accordance with SEC guidelines. Based on its analysis, our Compensation Committee determined that the work of Compensia and the individual compensation advisors employed by Compensia does not create any conflict of interest pursuant to the SEC rules and Nasdaq listing standards.
Use of Competitive Market Compensation Data
The Compensation Committee believes that it is important when making its compensation decisions to be informed as to the current practices of comparable public companies with which we compete for top talent. To this end, for purposes of setting 2023 executive compensation, the Compensation Committee relied on the list of peer group companies last updated by Compensia and approved by the Compensation Committee in November 2022. In November 2022, Compensia, with input from the Compensation Committee, had selected U.S. companies in the software and services industry, with a focus on companies with cloud-based platforms selling to both consumers and businesses, with revenue of generally 0.4x – 2.5x our revenue and market capitalization of generally 0.25x – 4.0x our market capitalization and gave additional consideration to selecting companies based on high revenue growth, profitability, revenue and market capitalization measured per employee and companies that had completed an initial public offering in the past five years. At the time of approving the peer group for purposes of setting 2023 executive compensation, our revenue approximated the 52nd percentile and our market cap approximated the 42nd percentile.
The peer group approved and used by the Compensation Committee in making executive pay decisions for 2023 was as follows:
​ACI Worldwide Inc.*​​Manhattan Associates, Inc.*​
​Altair Engineering Inc.​​New Relic, Inc.​
​Appian, Inc.​​Paycom Software, Inc.​
​Arlo Technologies, Inc.​​Paylocity Holding Corporation​
​Box, Inc.*​​Q2 Holdings, Inc.*​
​DoubleVerify Holdings, Inc.*​​Qualys, Inc.​
​Dynatrace, Inc.​​Rapid7, Inc.*​
​Evestnet, Inc.*​​Shutterstock, Inc.​
​HubSpot, Inc.​​Sonos, Inc.​
​Interdigital, Inc.*​​SPS Commerce, Inc.​
​
*
New for 2023
​
The Compensation Committee used 2022 data compiled from the public filings of these peer companies, which we refer to as market data, to inform the Compensation Committee’s determinations regarding executive compensation for 2023. The Compensation Committee did not target pay to fall at any particular percentile of the market data, but rather reviewed this market data as a helpful reference point in making 2023 compensation decisions. Market data is only one of the factors that the Compensation

Committee considers in making compensation decisions. The Compensation Committee considers other factors as described below under “Factors Used in Determining Executive Compensation.”

Our Compensation Committee sets the compensation of our executive officers at levels it determines to be competitive and appropriate for each executive officer, using the professional experience and judgment of Compensation Committee members. Pay decisions are not made by use of a formulaic approach or benchmark; the Compensation Committee believes executive pay decisions require consideration of a multitude of relevant factors which may vary from year to year. In making executive compensation decisions, the Compensation Committee generally takes into consideration the following factors:
•
Company performance and existing business needs;
​
•
Each named executive officer’s individual performance, scope of job function and the criticality of the skill set of the named executive officer to the Company’s future performance;
​
•
The need to attract new talent to our executive team and retain existing talent in a highly competitive industry where we compete for top talent;
​
•
A range of market data reference points, as described above under “Use of Competitive Market Compensation Data”;
​
•
Our Chief Executive Officer’s recommendations, based on his direct knowledge of the performance by each named executive officer and his extensive industry experience; and
​
•
Recommendations from consultants on compensation policy determinations for our executive officers.
​
2023 Executive Compensation Program
Base Salary
In April 2023, the Compensation Committee reviewed the base salaries of our named executive officers and approved increases to base salaries in amounts ranging from approximately 2.6% to 14.1% for each of the named executive officers other than Mr. Trundle. The base salary increases were effective September 1, 2023, and were not retroactively effective to January 1, 2023 (i.e., the named executive officers received the increased rate of base salary only from September 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023). The Compensation Committee determined increases were appropriate given that our named executive officer’s base salaries fell well below the median of the market data, in particular, for Messrs. Bedell and Kerzner who were each promoted to President in early 2023. However, the Compensation Committee kept base salary increases minimal for the other named executive officers with individual amounts varying due to performance, time in role, market data comparisons and internal parity considerations. Mr. Trundle’s base salary, at the request of Mr. Trundle, has remained unchanged since he joined us in 2003. The 2023 base salaries of our named executive officers are reflected below.

salaries actually took effect on September 1, 2023 (and were not retroactively effective to January 1, 2023), the percentage increases in 2023 base salaries actually paid during 2023 over 2022 base salaries were lower than the percentage increases reflected in this column (since the increased 2023 base salaries were only paid from September 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023).
Annual Performance Bonus
In April 2023, the Compensation Committee approved the following 2023 annual cash bonus targets listed below for each named executive officer. The 2023 target bonus for each named executive officer was effective September 1, 2023. Company policy specifies that fiscal year bonuses be calculated on a prorated basis to account for target bonus increases that occur during the fiscal year, by factoring in the previous target bonus for the portion of the fiscal year prior to the effective date of the increase, and the increased target bonus for the portion of the fiscal year after the effective date of the increase. The target bonus amounts are primarily based on applicable market data comparisons and input from our Chief Executive Officer.

The percentage increases reflected in this column assume that the 2023 target bonuses listed in the table above became effective as of January 1, 2023. Note, however, that because the listed 2023 target bonuses actually took effect on September 1, 2023 (and were not retroactively effective to January 1, 2023), the actual percentages by which 2023 target bonuses increased over 2022 target bonuses were lower than the percentages reflected in this column (since the increased 2023 target bonuses were applicable to only the portion of 2023 from September 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023). For example, Steve Valenzuela’s 2022 target bonus was $229,000, and therefore the actual percentage by which his 2023 target bonus increased would be determined by factoring in his 2022 target bonus (i.e., $229,000) for the portion of 2023 during which his 2022 target bonus applied (i.e., from January 1, 2023 until August 31, 2023), and his increased 2023 target bonus (i.e., $236,000) for the portion of 2023 during which the increased 2023 target bonus applied (i.e., from September 1, 2023 until December 31, 2023), or (($229,000*(8/12)) + ($236,000*(4/12)), i.e., $231,333, such that his 2023 target bonus actually represented an increase of 1.0% from his 2022 target bonus.
​
In January 2023, the Compensation Committee approved the adoption of the executive bonus plan for our executive officers, including the named executive officers, for 2023 (the “Executive Bonus Plan”). The Executive Bonus Plan was designed to award cash incentive payments for performance in 2023 to participants based on our achievement of certain performance goals set by the Compensation Committee and included a three-tiered program based on achievement of two tiers relating to pre-established performance goals and a third tier under which the Compensation Committee, with input from our Chief Executive Officer (except with respect to his own performance), could adjust each named executive officer’s actual payout based on the individual performance of each officer. The Compensation Committee could also apply negative discretion in Tier 3, such that lower or no payout may be determined even if the relevant Tier 1 and Tier 2 goals were achieved. In no event could an executive officer receive more than 150% of his target bonus. The first two tiers, the payout formula and actual achievement are listed in the table below.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

2023 Performance Goals​​Bonus Funding Formula​​Achievement​
Tier 1: 2023 SaaS and license revenue​​For each 1% achievement below target goal, target bonus payout is reduced by 2%, rounded to nearest 0.1%​​
We exceeded the SaaS and license revenue target by 2.2%, resulting in a target payout increase of 4.4%
For each 1% achievement above target, target bonus payout is increased by 2%, rounded to nearest 0.1%
​
Tier 2: 2023 Adjusted EBITDA​​For each 1% achievement below target goal, target payout resulting from Tier 1 calculation is reduced by 1%, rounded to nearest 0.1%​​
We exceeded the Adjusted EBITDA target by 28.2%, resulting in a target payout increase of 14.1%
For each 1% achievement above target, target payout resulting from Tier 1 calculation is increased by 0.5%, rounded to nearest 0.1%
​
Total (including Tier 3)​​​​​Target payout decrease of 9.0% (i.e., approximately 108.4% target payout potential)​
The Compensation Committee chose SaaS and license revenue and Adjusted EBITDA as the performance goals for the Executive Bonus Plan because they directly tie to our corporate goals and the Compensation Committee believed successful performance on these metrics would encourage focus on the strength of our SaaS business, strategic growth, and sustainable long-term stockholder value.
Our corporate performance goal targets are internal measures that we do not disclose for several reasons, including our belief that disclosure would result in competitive harm. If the targets were disclosed, we believe the information would provide our competitors with insights into our operations and sales compensations programs that would be harmful to us. The Compensation Committee set the targets for these performance measures at levels that would require extraordinary efforts, excellent leadership, effective leveraging of our competencies and a focus on driving results. For each financial measure, the Compensation Committee selected a target that exceeded our prior year performance.
After calculating Tier 1 and Tier 2 bonus availability based on our overall performance against the designated performance goals, the Compensation Committee assessed each named executive officer’s individual performance under Tier 3, with the input of our Chief Executive Officer (other than for himself) and approved the following final bonus payouts.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The annual cash incentive awards earned by our named executive officers for fiscal year 2023 performance are also set forth in the Summary Compensation Table below;below.

eachEquity Awards
The Compensation Committee determined that the 2023 equity grants for our named executive officers should consist of stock options and restricted stock unit awards. The Compensation Committee believes that stock options, which have historically been an important part of our directors; and

allequity compensation program, continue to be a key tool in serving to align the interests of our executive officers and directorsour stockholders; stock options are inherently performance based, and automatically link executive pay to stockholder return, as a group.

This table is based upon information supplied by our named executive officers, directors and principal stockholders. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to the table and subject to common property laws where applicable, we believe that each stockholder named in the table has sole voting and investment power with regard to the shares indicated as being beneficially owned. Applicable percentages are based on 45,581,662 shares of common stock outstanding on December 31, 2015, adjusted as requiredvalue realized, if any, by the rules promulgated byexecutive from an award of stock options is dependent upon, and directly proportionate to, appreciation in stock price.

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers, directors and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownershipprice of our common stock increases above the price at time of grant and otherremains above as the stock options continue to vest. Stock options also do not have downside protection, and the awards will not provide value to the holder when the stock price is below the exercise price. We have added restricted stock unit awards to our equity securities. Officers, directorsaward mix in the last several years to align with peer company practices, and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulationbecause we believe that it improves the balance and risk profile of our compensation program to furnish us with copiesinclude a form of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

To our knowledge, basedaward that does not rely solely on a review ofstock price appreciation in order to provide value.

In connection with making its decision regarding our executive equity compensation program for 2023, the copies of such reports furnishedCompensation Committee reviewed market trends and data, prepared by Compensia, regarding equity award grant practices. For 2023, the Compensation Committee determined that equity awards vesting over time continued to us and written representations that no other reports were required, duringbe the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable tomost appropriate incentive structure for our officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with; except that one report, covering one transaction, was filed late by Mr. Panero.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Summary Compensation Table

The following table sets forth information regarding compensation earned during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 by our named executive officers to reward performance over time and achieve our retention objectives. Our time-based vesting schedules, which includeat five years are longer than most of those of our principal executive officerpeer companies, deliver retention incentives over the long-term and, unlike awards that vest based on pre-determined financial or market goals, do not create incentives for inappropriate short-term risk-taking at the next two most highly compensated executive officersexpense of realizing long-term value or the potential incentive for unethical conduct. In addition, we deliver a meaningful portion of compensation in 2015.

Valenzuela and Ramos, (ii) 59% to options and 41% to restricted stock units for Messrs.

Pursuant to the terms of his offer letter, Mr. Kerzner is also eligible for an additional annual bonus payment of $50,000 upon the Company’s achievement of certain target revenue goals. The corporate annual revenue targets are set by the Compensation Committee, with input from the Chief Executive Officer,Change in January of each year for such fiscal year. If we met the corporate annual revenue targets and the bonus is determined to be earned by Mr. Kerzner, then it will be paid during the first quarter of the following fiscal year, after the prior year’s financial results are finalized, but no later than March 15th.

Control Benefits

Our named executive officers, other than Mr. Valenzuela, are not entitled to any severance benefits upon a termination of employment.

Pursuant to Mr. Valenzuela’s offer letter, if his employment is terminated by us without cause, then he will be entitled to receive continuing payments of his then-current salary for a period of four months, as well as payment of the health insurance premiums for continued coverage under COBRA for a period of six months. In addition, in the event of a change in control (as defined in our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan), the unvested shares subject to the equity awards granted to Mr. Valenzuela prior to 2020 and pursuant to the terms of his offer letter would generally fully vest upon the first anniversary of the change in control, or if earlier, upon certain qualifying terminations of employment or adverse changes to employment terms. Such acceleration provisions do not apply to equity awards granted to Mr. Valenzuela in and after 2020.

Our patent program rewards employees who are named as inventors on our pending patent applications and newly issued patents. Our named executive officers are also eligible to participate in this program on the same basis as all of our full-time employees, and during fiscal 2023, Mr. Kerzner received awards under this program.
We design our employee benefits programs to be affordable and competitive in relation to the market, as well as compliant with applicable laws and practices. We adjust our employee benefits programs as needed based upon regular monitoring of applicable laws and practices and the competitive market.
Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits
Currently, we do not view perquisites or other personal benefits as a significant component of our executive compensation program. Accordingly, we do not generally provide perquisites or other personal benefits to our executive officers, including the named executive officers, except in situations where we believe it is appropriate to assist an individual in the performance of his or her duties, to make our executive officers more efficient and effective, and for recruitment and retention purposes. In the future, we may provide perquisites or other personal benefits in limited circumstances. All future practices with respect to perquisites or other personal benefits will be approved and subject to periodic review by the Compensation

Committee.

Tax and Accounting Implications
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
Under Financial Accounting Standard Board ASC Topic 718 (“ASC 718”), we are required to estimate and record an expense for each award of equity compensation over the vesting period of the award. We record share-based compensation expense on an ongoing basis according to ASC 718.
Deductibility of Executive Compensation
Under Section 162(m) of the Code (“Section 162(m)”), compensation paid to each of the Company’s “covered employees” that exceeds $1 million per taxable year is generally non-deductible unless the compensation qualifies for (i) certain grandfathered exceptions (including the “performance-based compensation” exception) for certain compensation paid pursuant to a written binding contract in effect on November 2, 2017 and not materially modified on or after such date or (ii) the reliance period exception for certain compensation paid by corporations that became publicly held on or before December 20, 2019.
Although the Compensation Committee will continue to consider tax implications as one factor in determining executive compensation, the Compensation Committee also looks at other factors in making its decisions and retains the flexibility to provide compensation for our named executive officers in a manner consistent with the goals of our executive compensation program and the best interests of our Company and our stockholders, which may include providing for compensation that is not deductible by us due to the deduction limit under Section 162(m). The Compensation Committee also retains the flexibility to modify compensation that was initially intended to be exempt from the deduction limit under Section 162(m) if it determines that such modifications are consistent with our business needs.
Other Compensation Policies and Practices
Equity Awards Grant Delegation Policy
The Compensation Committee has delegated authority to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to grant equity awards to our employees (other than our executive officers), subject to the terms and conditions of an equity awards grant delegation policy. Such awards may be granted on scheduled grant dates to newly hired employees or to existing employees in connection with a promotion or in recognition of their contributions to the Company. In each instance, the policy provides for a limitation on the maximum size of any such awards. In the case of options to purchase shares of our common stock, the exercise price of such options must at least be equal to the fair market value of our common stock, which is defined as the closing price for our common stock as quoted on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on the

40
TABLE OF CONTENTS

date of grant, or, if the date of grant is a non-trading day (i.e., a weekend or holiday), then the determination date for fair market value will be the closing price for our common stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of grant.
Clawback Policy
As a public company, if we are required to restate our financial results due to our material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirements under the federal securities laws as a result of misconduct, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer may be legally required to reimburse us for any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation they receive in accordance with the provisions of Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In addition, the Compensation Committee adopted a revised compensation recovery, or “clawback,” policy, effective December 1, 2023 (the “Revised Clawback Policy”), which states that, if the Company is required to restate its financial results due to material noncompliance with financial reporting requirements under securities laws, the Company will recoup any erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation from the Company’s current and former executive officers. The Revised Clawback Policy is intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the SEC’s final regulations on the subject, and Nasdaq’s listing standards on the subject. The Revised Clawback Policy supersedes the Company’s previous clawback policy which was in effect from May 2018 until the adoption of the Revised Clawback Policy. The Revised Clawback Policy is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 97.1 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed February 22, 2024.
Policy Prohibiting Hedging and Pledging of Our Equity Securities
Our insider trading policy prohibits our employees, including our executive officers and directors, from engaging in short sales, hedging of stock ownership positions, and transactions involving derivative securities relating to our common stock. In addition, our directors and executive officers and any person required to comply with the blackout periods or pre-clearance requirements under our insider trading policy are prohibited from pledging Company securities as collateral for loans and may not hold Company securities in margin accounts.
Analysis of Risks Presented by Our Compensation Policies and Programs
The Compensation Committee has reviewed our compensation policies and practices to assess whether they encourage employees to take inappropriate risks. After reviewing and assessing our compensation philosophy, terms and practices, including the mix of fixed and variable, short and long-term incentives and overall pay, incentive plan structures, and the checks and balances built into, and oversight of, each plan and practice, the Compensation Committee determined that any risks arising from our compensation policies and practices for our employees are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our Company as a whole. The Compensation Committee believes that the mix and design of the elements of executive compensation do not encourage management to assume excessive risks; rather, it believes the mix of short-term compensation (in the form of salary and annual bonus, if any, which is based on a variety of performance factors) and long-term compensation (in the form of stock options or restricted stock unit grants) prevents undue focus on short-term results and helps align the interests of our executive officers with the interests of our stockholders. In addition, our insider trading policy and prohibition against hedging and pledging of our stock protects against short-term decision making and our clawback policy and cap on annual bonuses mitigates risk-taking behavior. The Compensation Committee intends to conduct an annual review of our compensation-related risk profile to ensure that our compensation programs do not encourage excessive or inappropriate risk-taking and that the level of risk that they do encourage is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

All of the option awards were granted with a per share exercise price equal to the fair market value of one share of our common stock on the date of grant. Prior to the completion of our initial public offering, the fair market value of one share of common stock was determined in good faith by our Board with the assistance of a third-party valuation expert. After our initial public offering, the fair market value of one share of common stock is determined to be the closing price of our common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on the date of grant, or, if the date of grant is a non-trading day (i.e., a weekend or holiday), then the determination date for fair market value will be the closing price for our common stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of grant.

Equity Benefit Plans
For more information on our current equity compensation program and decisions regarding the grants of equity awards in fiscal 2023 for our named executive officers, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis — 2023 Executive Compensation Program — Annual Performance Bonus” and “Compensation Discussion and Analysis — 2023 Executive Compensation Program — Equity Awards.”
Since the completion of our initial public offering in July 2015, we grant equity awards to employees, including our named executive officers, under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”). Outstanding equity awards held by our employees, including our named executive officers that we granted prior to our initial public offering were granted under our Amended and Restated 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan”). Our Board has delegated authority to our Compensation Committee to administer the terms of our 2015 Plan and 2009 Plan, which are together referred to as the Equity Plans. The Equity Plans’ provisions regarding treatment of awards upon a termination or change in control transaction are summarized below. Please refer to the plan documents filed as exhibits to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on February 22, 2024 for a complete description of the terms of such plans.

51
TABLE OF CONTENTS

Under the terms of the Equity Plans and the form of award agreements thereunder, stock awards generally cease vesting and terminate upon the holder’s termination of service with us and options generally remain exercisable for a short period of time following the holder’s termination of service with us (generally three months, with longer periods upon terminations for death or disability), but in no event beyond the expiration of its original term.
In the event of certain specified significant corporate transactions, the plan administrator has the discretion to take a variety of actions with respect to stock awards granted under the 2015 Plan, including arranging for their assumption, continuation or substitution; accelerated vesting; and/or termination in exchange for payment or for no payment. Under our 2009 Plan, in the event of a merger, consolidation, or sale of assets or stock of our company that results in a change of control, the plan administrator may take either of the following two actions with respect to outstanding stock awards: (1) accelerate the date of exercise of all outstanding options or (2) cancel any outstanding awards and pay to the holder an amount in cash or securities equal to the excess of the price paid to the holders of shares of common stock over the exercise price of the award.
We are not obligated to treat all stock awards under the 2015 Plan or 2009 Plan, even those that are of the same type, in the same manner. Additionally, we may provide for additional vesting and exercisability or settlement in the event of certain types of change in control transactions in an individual award agreement or in any other written agreement between us and a participant. Our named executive officers’ equity acceleration benefits are described in the section above entitled “Severance and Change in Control Benefits.”
Pay Ratio
In accordance with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, promulgated by the Dodd Frank Act, we determined the ratio of: (a) the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, to (b) the median of the annual total compensation of all of our employees, except for our Chief Executive Officer, both calculated in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K.
To identify our median employee, we used the following methodology:
•
To determine our total population of employees, we included all of our employees as of December 31, 2023, other than our Chief Executive Officer.
​
•
To identify our median employee from our employee population, we calculated the aggregate amount of each employee’s (i) base salary paid in 2023, (ii) actual bonuses paid for 2023, and (iii) the value of equity awards granted in 2023 using the same methodology we use for estimating the value of the equity awards granted to our named executive officers and reported in our Summary Compensation Table, excluding, in each case, our Chief Executive Officer. In making this determination, we annualized the base salary and bonus elements listed in (i) and (ii) above paid for employees (other than seasonal or temporary employees) who were employed by us for less than the entire calendar year.
​
•
As of December 31, 2023, our employee population consisted of 1,838 individuals, 1,819 of whom were located in the United States and 19 individuals that were located outside of the United States, all of whom were located in Canada. As permitted by SEC rules, our employee population data described in the prior sentence does not include approximately 150 employees of EBS Spółka z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością, which we acquired in January 2023. Because of the limited scale of our operations outside the United States, we excluded all 19 of our employees located in Canada for purposes of determining our “median employee” in our pay ratio calculation.
​
After applying the methodology described above, we determined our median employee. Once the median employee was identified, we then calculated the annual total compensation of this employee for 2023 in accordance with the requirements of the Summary Compensation Table, resulting in an annual total compensation of $117,202.
The annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer in 2023, as reported in the Summary Compensation Table included in this Proxy Statement, was $2,437,575. Based on this information, the ratio of the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer to the median of the annual total compensation of all employees was 21 to 1.

52
TABLE OF CONTENTS

This pay ratio represents our reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K and applicable guidance, which provide significant flexibility in how companies identify the median employee. Each company may use a different methodology and make different assumptions. As a result, and as explained by the SEC when it adopted these rules, in considering the pay ratio disclosure, stockholders should keep in mind that the rule was not designed to facilitate comparisons of pay ratios among different companies, even companies within the same industry, but rather to allow stockholders to better understand and assess each particular company’s compensation practices and pay ratio disclosures.

Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy

Overview
Our directors play a critical role in guiding our strategic direction and overseeing management. The Compensation Committee reviews pay levels for non-employee directors on an annual basis with assistance from its compensation consultant, Compensia, which prepares a comprehensive assessment of our non-employee director compensation program. Such assessment includes benchmarking of our current director compensation against the same peer group used for executive compensation purposes and an update on recent trends in director compensation. Following such review, the Board, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee, approves any updates to the non-employee director compensation policy for the ensuing calendar year.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy
Our Board has adopted a director compensation policy for non-employee directors. The policy provides fordirectors, which was most recently amended by the compensationBoard in September 2023 upon recommendation by the Compensation Committee. Non-employee directors receive a combination of non-employee directors with cash and equity compensation.
Cash Compensation
Under theour policy, each non-employee director, other than Mr. Panero, receives an annual board service retainer of $25,000 and Mr. PaneroMcAdam, will receive an annual board service retainer of $40,000.$40,000, and Mr. McAdam, as Chairman of our Board, will receive an annual board service retainer of $50,000. The members of each of our Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will receive an annual service retainer of $5,000, and the members of our Audit Committee will receive an annual service retainer of $15,000. In addition, the chairman of each of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will receive a $20,000an annual committee chair service retainer. retainer of $20,000, $15,000 and $10,000, respectively. On September 15, 2023, the Compensation Committee approved increases to the annual board service retainer for each Compensation Committee member from $5,000 to $7,500 and the annual board service retainer for the chairperson of the Board from $10,000 to $25,000. All changes were effective January 1, 2024.
The annual cash compensation amounts set forth

22

above are payable in equal quarterly installments, payable in arrears during the first 30 days of the first month following the end of each calendar quarter in which the board service occurs. If the director joins our Board at a time other than the first day of a calendar quarter, he or she will be entitled to the cash compensation set forth above beginning with the calendar quarter following the date he or she joins our Board.

Equity Compensation
In addition to cash compensation, each non-employee director is eligible to receive nonqualified stock options and/or restricted stock unit awards under our 2015 Plan. In 2023 and in recent years, all equity compensation provided to our non-employee directors has been in the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan. Allform of restricted stock optionsunit awards.
Vesting schedules for equity awards are subject to the non-employee director’s continuous service on each applicable vesting date. Notwithstanding any vesting schedule, for each non-employee director who remains in continuous service with the Company until immediately prior to the closing of a change in control, the shares subject to his or her then-outstanding equity awards that were granted underpursuant to this policy are nonstatutorywill become fully vested immediately prior to the closing of such change in control.
Initial Award
Each non-employee director who is newly elected or appointed to our Board is eligible to receive an initial grant of restricted stock options,unit awards. The amount and vesting schedule of such initial award is in the Board’s discretion.
Annual Award
Each continuing non-employee director will automatically be granted an annual restricted stock unit award on the business day following our annual meeting of stockholders with an exercise price per share equal to 100% of thea grant date fair market value of $145,000; provided that no annual award will be granted to a non-employee director in the same calendar year that such person received his or her initial award. The grant date fair value shall be converted into the number of shares underlying the award based on the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant, andgrant. This annual restricted stock unit award will vest in full on the day immediately preceding the date of the next year’s annual meeting of stockholders, provided that the applicable non-employee director remains a termdirector as of tensuch vesting date.
Non-Employee Director Stock Ownership Guidelines
In 2018, the Compensation Committee adopted stock ownership guidelines for our non-employee directors, under which each non-employee director is expected to accumulate a number of shares of our

TABLE OF CONTENTS

common stock with value equal the lesser of (i) three times his or her annual cash retainer for Board service or (ii) 2,500 shares of our common stock. Our non-employee directors are expected to satisfy the stock ownership guidelines within five years from the adoption of the guidelines (or the individual’s date of grant,joining the Board, if later). As of March 31, 2024, all of our non-employee directors were in compliance with the stock ownership guidelines, except for Admiral Evans, who was appointed as a director effective February 1, 2021, and Mr. Whall, who was appointed as a director effective August 30, 2021, and thus each has until 2026, to comply with the guidelines pursuant to the phase-in period. Shares underlying unvested restricted stock units and unexercised stock options are not counted for purposes of meeting our stock ownership guidelines; accordingly, until Admiral Evans’ and Mr. Whall’s initial grants of restricted stock unit awards vest, such awards are not considered subject to earlier termination in connection with a termination of service. Any options orthe stock units awards grantedownership guidelines. The Compensation Committee adopted the stock ownership guidelines based on input and analysis from Compensia regarding market practices and best practices related to anon-employee director pursuant to this policy that are subject to vesting will become fully vested upon a change in control as long as such director is providing continuous service as of the date of such change in control.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS
Related Person Transactions Policy and Procedures
We have a related person transaction policy that sets forth our procedures for the identification, review, consideration and approval or ratification of related person transactions.

For purposes of our policy only, a related person transaction is a transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships, in which we and any related person are, were or will be participants in which the amount involvesinvolved exceeds $120,000. Transactions involving compensation for services provided to us as an employee or director are not covered by this policy. A related person is any executive officer, director or beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities, including any of their immediate family members and any entity owned or controlled by such persons.

Under the policy, if a transaction has been identified as a related person transaction, including any transaction that was not a related person transaction when originally consummated or any transaction that was not initially identified as a related person transaction prior to consummation, our management must present information regarding the related person transaction to our Audit Committee, or, if Audit Committee approval would be inappropriate, to another independent body of our Board, for review, consideration and approval or ratification. The presentation must include a description of, among other things, the material facts, the interests, direct and indirect, of the related persons, the benefits to us of the transaction and whether the transaction is on terms that are comparable to the terms available to or from, as the case may be, an unrelated third party or to or from employees generally. Under the policy, we will collect information that we deem reasonably necessary from each director, executive officer and, to the extent feasible, significant stockholder to enable us to identify any existing or potential related-personrelated person transactions and to effectuate the terms of the policy.

In considering related-personrelated person transactions, the Audit Committee, or other independent boardbody of our Board, takes into account the relevant available facts and circumstances including, but not limited to (a) the risks, costs and benefits to us, (b) the impact on a director’s independence in the event the related person is a director, immediate family member of a director or an entity with which a director is affiliated, (c) the availability of other sources for comparable services or products and (d) the terms available to or from, as the case may be, unrelated third parties or to or from employees generally.

The policy requires that, in determining whether to approve, ratify or reject a related person transaction, our Audit Committee, or other independent body of our Board, must consider, in light of known circumstances, whether the transaction is in, or is not inconsistent with, our best interests and those of our stockholders, as our Audit Committee, or other independent body of our Board, determines in the good faith exercise of its discretion.

Certain Related-PersonRelated Person Transactions

Except as described below, there have been no transactions since January 1, 2015 to2023 in which we have been a participant in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000, and in which any of our directors, executive officers or holders of more than 5% of our common stock, or any members of their immediate family, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, other than compensation arrangements which are described under “Executive Compensation” and “Director Compensation.”

Indemnification Agreements

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains provisions limiting the liability of directors, and our amended and restated bylaws provide that we will indemnify each of our directors to the fullest extent

24

permitted under Delaware law. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws also provide our Board with discretion to indemnify our officers and employees when determined appropriate by the Board.

In addition, we have entered into an indemnification agreement with each of our directors and executive officers.

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other annual meeting materials with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other annual meeting materials addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

This year, a number of brokers with account holders who are our stockholders will be “householding” our proxy materials. AAccordingly, a single Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate Notice, of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, please notify your broker or Alarm.com Holdings, Inc. Direct your written request to Alarm.com Holdings, Inc., Attn: Corporate Secretary, 8281 Greensboro Drive, Suite 100, Tysons, Virginia 22102.22102, or call (877) 389-4033. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials at their addresses and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their brokers.
