Our Transformation Journey
For the past three years, we have been laser focused on delivering on our transformation journey and investing significantly in our culture. I am proud of our results.
Our clear execution by our talented team in fiscal year 2023 has delivered a better culture, stronger customer relationships, an enhanced sales model, improved financial performance, and we have maintained our investment grade credit profile while returning $1 billion back to stockholders.
This strong operational execution resulted in significant stock outperformance for DXC as compared to the market and our peers. The three year TSR for DXC was 113.7%, as compared to 59.0% for the S&P 500 Index and 25.4% for the GICS 4510 Software and Services industry. On a one year basis, DXC’s TSR was -18.5%, ahead of the GICS 4510 Software and Services industry TSR of -35.2%, but below the S&P 500 Index TSR of -9.3%.1
Our team is excited and proud of what we accomplished this year because we have worked hard to get DXC to this point. With the execution momentum we have created, along with our new operating model, we look forward to delivering in fiscal year 2024.

Board Diversity and Refreshment

The Board believes that maintaining a diverse membership with varying backgrounds, skills, expertise and other personal characteristics promotes inclusiveness, enhances the Board’s deliberations and enables the Board to better represent all of DXC’s constituents, including its diverse customer base and workforce. Accordingly, while we do not have a separate written Board diversity policy, the Board is committed to regular renewal and refreshment and seeking out highly qualified candidates with diverse backgrounds, skills and experiences as part of each Board candidate search undertaken, including actively seeking women and minority director candidates for consideration.

The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee, which oversees succession planning for the Board and makes recommendations regarding key leadership roles on the Board and its committees, regularly reviews the composition of our Board and assesses the skills and characteristics of our directors with a view towards enhancing the composition of our Board to support the Company’s evolving strategy. Likewise, on an annual basis, committee assignments are reviewed to discuss whether rotation of Committeecommittee members and committee chairs is appropriate to introduce fresh perspectives and to broaden and diversify the views and experiences represented on the Board’s committees.

DXC-Logo-Horiz_Purple+Black-RGB.jpg

Our Board believes that these considerations and goals, together with the Board’s Annual Evaluation and the Board Retirement policy based on an age limit of 72, are important factors in the Board’s refreshment efforts. Since August 2020, we have welcomed fiveseven new directors to the Board, two of whom are women and twofour others of whom are from a traditionally underrepresented racial / ethnic minority group, and each of whom brings extensive experience and fresh perspectives to enrich Board dialogue and enhance the Board’s ability to continue to effectively oversee our business. Raul J. Fernandez wasand David A. Barnes were nominated for election as directordirectors at our 2020 annual meeting of stockholders, westockholders. We appointed Dawn Rogers and Akihiko Washington to our Board in March 2021, and most recently, we appointed Carrie Teffner to our Board in April 2022.

LOGO

Most recently, we appointed Anthony Gonzalez and Karl Racine to our Board in January 2023. At our 2022 annual meeting of stockholders, our Board was comprised of three women and seven men, meaning that over 30% of our Board was comprised of women. With the departure of Ms. Alving at the Annual Meeting, and the recent addition of two new directors who are men from traditionally underrepresented racial / ethnic groups, the percentage representation of women on the Board has correspondingly decreased. The nomination of Ms. Mayfield to the Board furthers the Board’s refreshment efforts and reflects the Board’s continuing commitment to achieving and maintaining a diverse membership. The Board will continue to take these matters into consideration as it engages in appropriate and timely succession planning.


Proposals

The majority of our Board is diverse based on directors’ self-identified gender, race, ethnicity and/or nationality.

Such pre-approval decisions of any Audit Committee member to whom such authority is delegated must be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

Proposal 3: Non-Binding Advisory Vote to Approve Our Named Executive Officer Compensation

In accordance with Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, we are providing our stockholders the opportunity to approve, on a nonbinding, advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement. We urge the stockholders to read the CD&A appearing elsewhere in this proxy statement, as well as the 20222023 Summary Compensation Table and related compensation tables and narrative, which provide detailed information on the compensation policies and practices and the compensation paid to our named executive officers in fiscal 2022,2023, as well as compensation design considerations for fiscal year 2023.

2024.

We are therefore asking our stockholders to approve the following advisory resolution at the 20222023 Annual Meeting:

RESOLVED, that the stockholders of DXC Technology Company approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers, as disclosed in the DXC Technology Company 20222023 definitive proxy statement pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and the accompanying footnotes and narratives.

The vote on the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement is advisory, and therefore not binding on DXC, the Compensation Committee or our Board. Our Board and our Compensation Committee value the opinions of our stockholders. To the extent there is any significant vote against the named executive officer compensation as disclosed in this proxy statement, we will consider our stockholders’ concerns and the Compensation Committee will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address those concerns. We have determined that our stockholders should cast an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers on an annual basis.

Proposal 4: Non-Binding Advisory Vote on the Frequency of Holding Future Non-Binding Advisory Votes on Named Executive Officer Compensation
As required by the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and related U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules, we are asking our stockholders to vote, on a non-binding, advisory basis, for their preference regarding the frequency of future non-binding advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers. Specifically, stockholders may vote on whether the non-binding advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers should occur every one, two or three years.
The Board has given consideration to the preferred frequency of the non-binding advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers. After considering the benefits and consequences of available options, the Board recommends that stockholders vote in favor of holding the non-binding advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers every year. An annual non-binding advisory vote would provide the Board with timely feedback from our stockholders on this important matter.
When voting on this proposal, stockholders should understand that they are not voting “for” or “against” the recommendation of the Board to hold the non-binding advisory vote every year. Rather, stockholders will have the option to express a preference (including by abstaining) on whether the Board should seek future non-binding advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers every year, every two years or every three years.
The option that receives the most votes from stockholders will be the frequency of the non-binding advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers. Although this advisory vote is not binding, the Board will review and consider the outcome of this vote when making its determination as to the frequency of future non-binding advisory stockholder votes on the compensation of our named executive officers.
The Board of Directors recommends a vote, on a non-binding advisory basis, for the option of ONE YEAR as the preferred frequency of future non-binding advisory votes on named executive officer compensation.

Corporate Governance

Combination ofCombined CEO and Board Chairman Positions

DXC’s Guidelines enable the Board to determine the appropriate Board leadership structure for the Company and allow the roles of Chairman of the Board and CEO to be filled by the same or different individuals. This approach allows the Board flexibility to determine whether the two roles should be separate or combined based upon the Company’s unique individual circumstances and the Board’s assessment of the Company’s leadership from time to time.

DXC-Logo-Horiz_Purple+Black-RGB.jpg

The Board regularly considers different structures as circumstances may warrant. The succession planning discussions following Mr. Read’s retirement as Chairman of the Board, effective at our 2022 Annual Meeting, included discussions on the Board leadership structure, including the merits of keeping separate or combining the Chairman and CEO roles. The Board considered several factors,warrant, including: the strategic goals of the Company, the status of DXC’s progress with respect to our transformation journey, the various capabilities of our directors, the dynamics of our Board, and best practices in the market. The Board also reflectedreflects upon the Company’s independent oversight function exercised by our Board, which consists entirely of independent directors other than Mr. Salvino, as well as the independent leadership to be provided by Mr. Herzog and each of the three standing Board Committees, which consist solely of, and are chaired by, independent directors.

Based on the above, the independent directors of the Board have determined that upon Mr. Read’s retirement as Chairman effective at the 2022 Annual Meeting, a combined Chairman and CEO structure, together with a Lead Independent Director with clearly defined and robust responsibilities, provides the most effective leadership structure for the Company at this time.
As Lead Independent Director, Mr. Herzog will havehas the following duties and responsibilities:

presiding over executive sessions of independent directors;

chairing meetings of the Board of Directors in the absence of the Chairman of the Board;

acting as a liaison between the independent directors and the Chairman of the Board;

coordinating with the Chairman of the Board regarding meeting agendas and schedules;

coordinating with the Chairman of the Board regarding information presented to the Board;

being available for consultation and communication with stockholders, as appropriate; and

calling meetings of the independent directors (executive sessions) as appropriate.

DXC’s governance processes include executive sessions

In addition to the above responsibilities, our Lead Independent Director also meets regularly with the chairs of the Board committees as well as our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, to discuss key matters, including management decisions. Our Lead Independent Director also provides input on the design of the Board, including committee oversight responsibilities.
The Board believes that one of the key elements of effective, independent oversight is that the independent directors aftermeet in an executive session on a regular basis without the conclusionpresence of management to discuss various matters related to the oversight of the Company, including the Board’s leadership structure and the President and Chief Executive Officer’s performance. Accordingly, our independent directors meet separately in an executive session at each regularly scheduled Board meeting and at such additional times as they may determine. Our independent directors held ten executive sessions during fiscal 2023, all of which were led by Mr. Herzog.
DXC’s governance processes also include annual evaluations by the independent directors of the CEO’s performance, succession planning, annual Board and committee self-assessments, and the various governance processes contained in the Guidelines and the Board committee charters.

Director Independence

Independent Directors. Directors. The Board assesses the independence of our directors and examines the nature and extent of any relations between the Company and our directors, their families and their affiliates. The Guidelines provide that a director is “independent” if he or she satisfies the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) requirements for director independence, (as set forth in Appendix A to this proxy statement) andincluding affirmative determination by the Board of Directors affirmatively determines that the director has no material relationship with DXC (either directly, or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with DXC).

202023 Proxy Statement

The Board has determined that, except for Michael J. Salvino, the Company’s Chairman, President and CEO, all of the Company’s director nominees, namely Mukesh Aghi, Amy E. Alving, David A. Barnes, Raul J. Fernandez, Anthony Gonzalez, David L. Herzog, Pinkie D. Mayfield, Karl Racine, Dawn Rogers, Carrie W. Teffner, Akihiko Washington and Robert F. Woods, are independent for purposes of DXC’s Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Board also determined that, except for Michael J. Salvino, the Company’s Chairman, President and CEO, all of the Company’s directors during fiscal 20222023 were independent.

182022 Proxy Statement


Corporate Governance

The Board considered the following relationships and transactions in making its determination that all directors (other than Mr. Salvino) are independent.

In February 2020, DXC initiated discussions with RemoteRetail, Inc. (“RemoteRetail”), a company that is majority-owned by Mr. Fernandez, a director of DXC, to assist DXC in a multi-year project to develop and deliver work-from-anywhere equipment procurement services to DXC employees. At the time DXC initially approached RemoteRetail, Mr. Fernandez was not on the DXC Board. Mr. Fernandez joined the Board in August of 2020. In February 2021, DXC and RemoteRetail officially launched the project described above. The project is operational, and payments to RemoteRetail in fiscal 2023 under the agreement totaled approximately $1.6 million. DXC also had entered into a Resale and Reseller Agreement with RemoteRetail, enabling DXC to market and sell to its end-customers the RemoteRetail solution.
In fiscal 2023, a DXC customer approached DXC seeking work-from-anywhere equipment procurement services similar to those provided by RemoteRetail. DXC considered building a similar product internally, but due to, among other things, the time and cost required to replicate the platform, decided to leverage its existing Resale and Reseller Agreement with RemoteRetail to meet the customer's immediate need. DXC continues to own the customer relationship and receives payment from the customer for any services delivered. DXC is not directly compensating RemoteRetail in connection with this reseller arrangement, however, there are certain pass-through payments made by the customer to DXC, which then remits payment to RemoteRetail in accordance with the terms of the Resale and Reseller Agreement. Given its role in the transaction, DXC retains a percentage of the total fees paid by the customer. In fiscal 2023, DXC offered similar arrangements to other DXC customers.
In April 2023, DXC acquired a minority equity interest in RemoteRetail for $2.5 million and received rights to a source code escrow and the ability to provide input on the future roadmap and technical direction of the RemoteRetail platform. Mr. Fernandez recused himself from any involvement in the negotiations of any of these transactions and commercial terms were agreed on an arm’s-length basis.
Independent Director Meetings. The non-management directors regularly meet in an executive session after the conclusion of each regularly scheduled Board meeting, and meet at such additional times as they may determine.

Committee Independence Requirements. Requirements. All members serving on the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee must either be independent as defined bypursuant to the Guidelines or otherwiseand be eligible to be a committee member under Section 303A of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. In addition, Audit Committee members must meet heightened independence criteria under the rules and regulations of the NYSE and the SEC relating to audit committees, and each Compensation Committee member must meet heightened independence criteria under the rules and regulations of the NYSE and the SEC relating to compensation committees and be a “non-employee“non-employee director” pursuant tounder Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. The company’sCompany’s Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee are comprised entirely of independent members.

Limits on Director Service on other Public Company Boards

We have a highly effective and engaged Board, and we believe that our directors’ outside directorships enable them to contribute valuable knowledge and experience to our Board. Nonetheless, the Board is sensitive to the external obligations of its directors and the potential for overboarding. Our Guidelines provide that directors should not serve as a director of another company if doing so would create actual or potential conflicts or interfere with their ability to devote sufficient time and effort to their duties as a director of DXC. Directors who have a full-time job should not serve on the boards of more than three other public companies and directors who do not have a full- timefull-time job should not serve on the board of more than four other public companies.

On May 17, 2022, the Company announced that David Herzog will become Lead Independent Director (LID) effective after our 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. In connection with his appointment as LID, Mr. Herzog will reduce his number of other public company boards from three to two before he begins serving as LID for the Company.

Director Attendance

Pursuant to our Guidelines, directors are expected to attend all meetings of the Board and the Board committees upon which they serve, and all annual meetings of the Company’s stockholders at which they are standing for election or re-election as directors.

DXC has an ongoing stockholder outreach program to build relationships with our stockholders and develop a dialogue about DXC’s corporate governance program. We value the input we receive from stockholders, engage on a variety of matters, including corporate governance, executive compensation, ESG issues and human capital management, and strive to be responsive to that feedback.

Remediation of Material Weakness Completed as of March 31, 2022. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Company completed the remediation of a previously disclosed material weakness related to the establishment and timely reassessment of policies and procedures for complex transactions and processes and the related impacts to control activities.

The Audit Committee was fully engaged and supportive of management’s efforts to remediate the material weakness and reviewed and discussed remediation at each standing Committee meeting it held in fiscal 2022, and held separate sessions of the Committee specifically to review progress on the remediation. The Committee also participated in the recruiting of a new finance leadership team with deep expertise in control environment remediation.

ESG Strategy and Targets

As a responsible corporate citizen with a commitment to environmental sustainability, we set ambitious carbon-reduction goals, and are working toward circular-economy processes and climate impact mitigation. Our sustainability approach is targeted to (1) Advancing1) Advance the sustainability of our operations; (2) Advancing2) Advance the sustainability of our IT services; and (3) Using3) Use our technologies and capabilities to help our customers become more sustainable.

We strive to minimizereduce our impact on the environment and improve resource efficiency in the areas of energy consumption, data center management, and travel and transportation. Our conservation efforts are supported in part by our shift to a virtual-first operating model, which enables our workforce to be largely remote and helps us reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and our overall energy consumption. While the virtual-first model mainly helps reduce the size of our office footprint, we are also pursuing efficiency programs for data centers and data center rationalization programs to reduce energy consumption.

DXC also partners with customers to help them achieve their own climate-related goals. In response to shifting customer demand, we offer a number of products and services that can have a significant impact on our customers’ sustainability objectives, delivering climate-related benefits far greater than what we could achieve alone through our internal carbon-reduction efforts. Offerings such as DXC Modern Workplace, cloud migration services, and data-driven sustainability services provide the data insights and IT evolution to directly reduce carbon emissions for our customers.1

E. Executive Compensation

DXC Letter from the Compensation Committee

Dear Fellow Stockholders,

fellow stockholders,

Set out on the following pages is the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, which details our fiscal 20222023 executive compensation program and several actions we took during fiscal 2022 related to executive compensation.

Overview. Our executive compensation program is structured to align pay with performance by closely aligning leadership’s financial interests with the execution of DXC’s Transformation Journey turnaround strategy, long-term strategic goals, and value creation for our stockholders.program.

Overview. In partnership with the leadership team, we are focused on developing compensation practices that are highly alignedalign with our stockholders’ interests and allow us to attract and retain the best talent.

To achieve that objective, we have worked with the leadership team to structure an executive compensation program that links pay with performance by closely aligning leadership’s financial interests with the execution of DXC Technology’s business strategy, and you will see that alignment in our pay outcomes in fiscal 2023. Stockholder outreach is another cornerstone of our executive compensation program, and we made changes to our executive compensation program in fiscal 2023 based on stockholder feedback we received in two separate engagements.

Fiscal 2022 Performance.2023 Pay for Performance. We wereare pleased with the Company’s continued progress in fiscal 2022.2023. Mr. Michael J. Salvino, our Chairman, President and CEO, ledtogether with his leadership team, have demonstrated clear execution on our Transformation Journey and delivered a better culture, stronger customer relationships, an enhanced sales model and improved financial performance. DXC has maintained an investment-grade credit profile, while returning $1 billion back to stockholders. We believe that the Company is well positioned to grow.
Consistent with our pay for performance plan for fiscal 2023, we approved the actual achieved 60% funding in navigating the economic andshort-term incentive plan, which is below target but above threshold performance. The long-term incentive paid out at 150% due to DXC’s strong operational challenges presented byexecution resulting in significant stock outperformance in the invasion of Ukraine, an inflationary macroeconomic environment, and the ongoing impact of COVID-19, while continuing to drivethree-year total shareholder return (TSR). DXC in a transparent, people-first and customer-centric way.

Importantly, our results prove that DXC is now in a better place. The Company significantly improved organic revenue performance, expanded margins, drove strong Adjusted EPS growth, and improved free cash flow by $1.4 billionwas 113.7%, as compared to fiscal 2021. Our stock price performance outpaced our59.0% for the S&P 500 Index and 25.4% for the median of the GICS 4510 companies forSoftware and Services industry. In addition, on a one-year basis, DXC’s TSR was -18.5%, ahead of the one-median of the GICS 4510 Software and two-year periods, a signalServices industry TSR of -35.2%, but below the S&P 500 Index TSR of -9.3%.1

We are pleased that execution of our turnaround strategy is taking hold. (Our three-DXC’s focus in fiscal 2024 will not be fixing challenges, but delivering higher-quality revenue, and five-year performance include time periods priorexpanding Margin, Earnings per Share and Free Cash Flow to the Transformation Journey turnaround strategy and prior to Mr. Salvino joining DXC). We fully expect the Company’s momentum to continue and are encouraged by the clarity that Mr. Salvino and the leadership team have provided around the actions needed to meet long-term targets and create long-term value for our stockholders.

Despite the solid financial performance in fiscal 2022, our President and CEO recommended to the Compensation Committee to reduce the annual incentive pool funding for fiscal 2022 from 82% to 75%, as Mr. Salvino felt that certain business optimization objectives for fiscal 2022 were not fully met. After a thorough review, the Compensation Committee approved the 75% annual incentive pool funding for fiscal 2022.

As further evidence of the Compensation Committee’s robust pay for performance philosophy fiscal 2020-2022 3-year PSUs expired with $0 payout for our CEO and other named executive officers. We believe this outcome demonstrates the rigor of our targets and alignment between pay and performance.

Response to Stockholder Feedback. Feedback. Following the 20212022 Annual Meeting of stockholders,Stockholders, in which holdersstockholders of only 47%91% of our shares outstanding supported our Say-on-Pay proposal, we engaged in two rounds of investor outreachoutreach. We are committed to ensure we fully understoodthese sessions as part of our ongoing efforts to seek feedback from, and engage with, our stockholders.
As further indication of the Company maturing and continuing to evolve based on stockholder feedback, concerns and perspectives, and could make appropriate changes and amendments to address the concerns. We joined members of management in this outreach, to ensure that we heard feedback directly. Combining both outreach efforts, we contacted holders of 70% of the Company’s outstanding shares and engaged directly with holders of 59% of the Company’s outstanding shares.

Fiscal 2022 Commitments and Actions. In these meetings, we openly discussed Mr. Salvino’s compensation, how it relates to peers and the significant improvements he is driving to the Company’s overall performance. We also discussed:

Our decision to not make any one-time grantsintroduced traditional financial metrics into our incentive plan in fiscal 20222023. This includes organic revenue growth, EBIT margin in the short-term incentive plan and we committedcumulative Free Cash Flow and relative total shareholder return in the long-term incentive plan.

We look forward to severely limit one-time, retention or discretionary awards, equity or cash awards for named executive officers (limitedcontinued collaboration with our stockholders in the years to rare circumstances such as “make whole” awards). Further, we do not anticipate the need to make any one-time awards to the existing named executive officers going forward

come.

Executive Compensation

41

Our commitment to no longer apply positive subjective discretion to incentive awards of our named executive officers


Our commitment to provide enhanced disclosure of annual cash incentive target levels, rigorous goal-setting and the rationale for selecting certain metrics

We subsequently decided to:

Not offer any named executive officers an employment agreement with a cash payment upon voluntary termination, including a modified single trigger, or any large cash payment in lieu of lifetime retiree medical benefits upon voluntary terminationgoing forward

Cap the fiscal 2022 short-term incentive program payout at target and as previously mentioned, reduce the short-term incentive pool funding from 82% as calculated to 75%

Looking Ahead: Fiscal 2023 Changes. After requesting stockholders’ input, we made several modifications to our executive compensation program for fiscal 2023, which we believe will further align our incentive program with stockholders’ interests and preferences.

We adopted organic revenue and adjusted EBIT margin as the metrics for our short-term incentive program

We adopted three-year relative Total Shareholder Return (rTSR) and free cash flow CAGR as the metrics for our long-term incentive program

We increased the proportion of performance share units (PSUs) to 60% for executive officers (other than our CEO, for whom PSUs constitute 70% of equity awards) and

The CEO’s base salary and target incentive opportunities were held constant and not increased

Stockholder Appreciation. Our stockholders engaged in an open and constructive manner and provided thoughtful feedback regarding our executive compensation program. Stockholders welcomed the ongoing collaboration and the opportunity to provide input on the evolution of the executive compensation program, aligned with both DXC’s Transformation Journey and the long-term interests of stockholders. We value the discussions with our stockholders and look forward to continued collaboration in the years to come.

The full summary of what we heard from stockholders, and the actions and commitments the Compensation Committee took as a result, can be found in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis.

We appreciate the feedback and support, and we will continue to be responsive to our investors as we seek to maintain a highly performance-based executive compensation program that drives long-term value creation for our stockholders and supports DXC’s Transformation Journey.

Sincerely,

Compensation Committee

DXC’s Fiscal 2021 – Fiscal 20222023 Cumulative TSR Comparison Against Peers: Demonstrating Strong Relative Outperformance

WhilePay for Performance

Under Mr. Salvino’s leadership, DXC’s 3-year cumulative TSR(-48.8%(113.7%) lags substantially outperformed the median of the GICS 4510 Software and Services industry (16.7%(25.4%), our 2-year TSR tells a dramatically different story of outperforming the GICS 4510. When Mr. Salvino was appointed to the role of CEO in the middle of fiscal 2020, he conceived, developed, and began implementing our Transformation Journey turnaround strategy. Under Mr. Salvino’s leadership, our 2-year TSR (172.8%) substantially outpaced the median of the GICS 4510 industry group (58.3%). In addition, DXC’s most recent 1-year TSR(5.8%) also outpaced the same industry group (-20.2%).1 We believe that this relative outperformance demonstrates the effectiveness of the turnaround strategy and the specific contribution of Management. For this reason, our Compensation Committee believes it is most appropriate to focus on the most recent 2-year period when considering the relative alignmentfive steps of our CEO’s compensationTransformation Journey, which is now embedded in how we operate.

Following a review of overall Company performance, the CEO recommended, and the Compensation Committee approved, the application of a negative modifier to reduce the calculated pool of approximately 82% down to 75% for the Company as a result of not achieving all business optimization objectives in all countries for fiscal 2022. We believe this pool funding better aligns with overall performance by taking into consideration achievement relative to other business objectives that are not directly measured in the plan, but the Compensation Committee believes is important in assessing overall performance.

Peer Group: Appropriate Peer Group to Reference

Each year, the Compensation Committee, with the assistance of its independent compensation consultant, reviews the peer group of comparable companies to use as a reference point in connection with executive compensation decisions.

In determining the peer group, the criteria of competitors for talent, revenues and headcount are given more weight in the Compensation Committee’s determination than market capitalization, in part because of the view that DXC’s stock price is somewhat depressed and thus market capitalization is not as significant a factor.

Pay Outcomes Demonstrate Pay for Performance Alignment

A substantial proportion of our CEO’s pay is performance-based and at-risk. If the Company does not meet performance targets and/or our stock price decreases (or, conversely, if goals are achieved and/or our stock price increases), the value of our CEO’s pay is affected, underscoring the pay for performance nature of our executive compensation program.

To illustrate this alignment of pay outcomes with performance, the chart below contrasts the amounts reported in the Summary Compensation Table under SEC reporting rules, which uses the accounting grant date fair value of equity grants, with the amounts of CEO compensation that were realized (actual compensation) during a fiscal year.

At the end of fiscal 2022,2023, the total cumulative realizedfiscal 2021 through fiscal 2023 reported value (shown in the chart below) of Mr. Salvino’s pay was approximately 167% less135% more than the total cumulative fiscal 2020 through fiscal 2022 reported values.actual realized value (shown in chart below). This not only provides a meaningful demonstration of the pay for performance alignment of DXC’s executive compensation program, but the line representing Cumulative TSR also shows the strong alignment of our CEO’s realized pay with our stock price performance and the experience of our stockholders.

Fiscal 20222023 CEO Target Direct Compensation Aligned with Peer Median; Peer Group
Rigorously Determined

As described below under “Section IV. Compensation Determination Process—CompensationProcess--Compensation Peer Group and Peer Selection Process,” the Compensation Committee believes that obtaining relevant market data is very important to making determinations about executive compensation. The Compensation Committee takes into consideration the structure, components, and amounts paid under the executive compensation programs of other comparable, peer companies when making decisions about the structure and component mix of our program. The Compensation Committee also considers the Company’s compensation philosophy and objectives, internal fairness and market trends, and other relevant factors. For fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee determined that the appropriate market reference for the CEO’s target total direct compensation was the median (50th percentile) of our compensation peer group.

When DXC initially appointed Mr. Salvino as CEO in September 2019 (fiscal 2020), the Compensation Committee considered market data and Mr. Salvino’s status as a new, first-time public company CEO, and set his target compensation at a level that was below the 25th percentile of the peer companies. Since 2019, the Company has achieved continuous momentum, financial stability, and progress against our strategic plan under his direction.

Fiscal 2023 CEO Compensation Decisions

The Compensation Committee established the fiscal 2023 compensation arrangements for Mr. Salvino and other executive officers during the May 2022 Compensation Committee Meeting. The Compensation Committee considered his compensation structure relative to peers and considered stockholder experience in fiscal 2022, as the Company continued to navigate the economic and operational challenges to returning to growth. In light of these considerations, the Compensation Committee determined not to increase Mr. Salvino’s base salary, target STI opportunity, or target LTI opportunity for fiscal 2023.

Section II. 2021 2022 SAY-ON-PAY VOTE AND STOCKHOLDER ENGAGEMENT

General.

General. Stockholder feedback has informed the evolution of our executive compensation program. We value the input we receive from stockholders and engage with them on a regular and ongoing basis on a variety of matters, including corporate governance, executive compensation and ESG, including human capital management. We strive to be responsive to that feedback.

2021 Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation. At the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, our advisory Say-on-Pay proposal regarding the compensation of our named executive officers received the support of approximately 47% of the votes cast. The Compensation Committee and the Board reviewed the result of the Say-on-Pay vote and decided to conduct stockholder engagement efforts to better understand the concerns and perspectives of our stockholders.

Robust Engagement. DXC’s Compensation Committee continues to believe that directly engaging with stockholders is a critical process for receiving and understanding feedback on subjects that matter most to them.

2022 Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation. At the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our advisory Say-on-Pay proposal regarding the compensation of our named executive officers received the support of approximately 91% of the votes cast, indicating stockholder satisfaction with our executive compensation program and the disclosed executive compensation program changes in fiscal 2022, the disclosed going forward changes in fiscal 2023, and the Compensation Committee commitments made to stockholders during the fiscal 2022 outreach.
Robust Engagement. DXC’s Compensation Committee believes that directly engaging with stockholders is a critical process for receiving and understanding feedback from stockholders. Over the course of fiscal 2022,2023, we conducted outreach to stockholders in August 2021July 2022 and again in February 2022. The first outreach represented approximately 64% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock and we engaged with stockholders that represented 43% of common shares outstanding. The second outreach represented approximately 65% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock and we engaged with stockholders representing 41% of common shares outstanding. When combining both outreach programs, we contacted stockholders representing a total of 70% of the Company’s outstanding shares and engaged with stockholders representing a total of 59% of the Company’s outstanding shares.

During the first outreach, we requested that stockholders share their concerns regarding our executive compensation program. We also asked for feedback on our go-forward compensation program metrics.

In the second outreach, we shared the Compensation Committee’s response to stockholders’ feedback, based on what we heard during the first outreach. We also sought feedback on the executive compensation actions taken by the Compensation Committee in fiscal 2022, discussed ESG topics, and sought feedback on the proposed changes to the go-forward short-term and long-term plan metrics based on their input during the first outreach, and in alignment with the next phase of our Transformation Journey turnaround strategy.

The feedback received was then shared and discussed with the full Compensation Committee and the Board.

Incorporating Feedback. We received valuable commentary and insights regarding our compensation practices and disclosure as a result of our engagement with stockholders. As shown below, and in accordance with our practice of

462022 Proxy Statement


Executive Compensation

considering stockholder input, we made significant changes in response to the feedback we received, both in relation to our Say-on-Pay vote and in line with other feedback. Because our executive compensation program is continuously refined based on collaboration with our investors, we believe the program equally takes into consideration the input of our stockholders on structures and practices and the Compensation Committee’s views of the programs and policies that will effectively motivate executive officers to achieve goals, resulting in the creation of long-term stockholder value.

During the first stockholder outreach in fiscal 2022, we learned that our negative fiscal 2021 Say-on-Pay vote was the result of two main concerns: first, the Compensation Committee’s approval of certain one-time discretionary retention awards to our named executive officers; and second, the use of subjective discretion to increase our CEO’s bonus payout beyond the level of the Company’s achievement. In addition to the stockholder feedback we received on the Say-on-Pay vote, we also sought stockholder input on appropriate metrics for the go-forward incentive compensation design to support the next phase of our Transformation Journey.

During the second outreach in fiscal 2022, we spoke with2023, stockholders about our proposed responses to their feedback as outlined in the chart below. The responsiveness was well-received, as were the new metrics in our executive compensation program. Based on the discussions, we believe that our changes meaningfully acknowledged and addressed the stockholder concerns.

Stockholders expressed being pleased with the high level of responsiveness of the Compensation Committee to their concerns, and in addition voiced appreciation for the ongoing collaboration and the opportunity to provide input on the evolution of the executive compensation program, aligned with both DXC’s Transformation Journey andincluding the long-term interests of stockholders.changes made in fiscal 2023 in response to their feedback. We value the ongoing discussions with our stockholders and look forward to continued collaboration in the years to come.

STOCKHOLDER FEEDBACK AND CONCERNS THAT CONTRIBUTED TO NEGATIVE SAY-ON-PAY VOTE:




WHAT WE HEARDHOW THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE RESPONDED TO THE
FEEDBACK
One-time discretionary retention equity grants, particularly time-based grants, or large cash awards, should not be a regular practice of the Company. Going forward, their use should be limited, given the business stability and new leadership team firmly in place. If they are used, there needs to be robust disclosure on the rationale.

Compensation Committee Response: Communicated to stockholders that during fiscal 2022, no one-time equity or cash awards were made to named executive officers. Additionally, committed to severely limit any one-time discretionary grants or cash awards and to make any such grants only in rare circumstances, such as “make-whole” awards for new hires as a way to immediately align the new executive to the long-term interest of stockholders. In these cases, robust disclosure will be provided to stockholders.

As an immediate follow-up to the outreach discussions, the Compensation Committee met and further agreed that the existing compensation program sufficiently motivates and rewards performance. As such,going forward the Compensation Committee does not anticipate the need to make any one-time awards to the existing named executive officers.

The level of applied positive discretion in determining the CEO’s fiscal 2021 incentive bonus payout resulted in a disconnect between pay and performance.Compensation Committee Response:Did not exercise positive discretion in connection with the fiscal 2022annual incentive payout for the CEO or the other named executive officers, and further, made a commitment that going forward, subjective positive discretion to increase named executive officers’ bonus payouts would not be applied. Payouts will be based on actual performance outcomes.

OTHER STOCKHOLDER FEEDBACK AND OUR RESPONSES:

In addition to our first fiscal 2022 outreach in August 2021, our second outreach with stockholders in February 2022 included discussions on the topics outlined below.

DISCUSSION TOPICHOW THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE RESPONDED
Fiscal 2022 Pay Practices

Compensation Committee Response: We proactively shared that during fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee acted as follows:

•  No guaranteed bonuses made to newly hired Global Leadership Team members

•  No waiver

The CEO’s employment agreement provides for a cash payment upon any voluntary termination of employment in lieu of lifetime retiree medical benefits.

Compensation Committee Response: We discussed this topic with stockholders and explained the unique and personal circumstances for negotiating this with the CEO in 2019 when he was being hired.

Although stockholders understood the rationale for negotiating the new hire provision in 2019, as an immediate follow-up to the outreach discussions, the Compensation Committee met and committed that going forward, they will not offer any executive officers an employment agreement with a cash payment upon voluntary termination, including a modified single trigger, or large cash payment in lieu of lifetime retiree medical benefits upon voluntary retirement.

During the first outreach, stockholders were asked for their input on what metrics are most important for them to see in our go forward executive compensation program, aligned with the growth phase of the Transformation Journey.

The vast majority of stockholders asked for the inclusion of a relative metric and financial metrics.

Compensation Committee Response: During the second outreach, we shared that beginning in fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee will:

1)  Replace the current revenue measure with an organic revenue growth metric and replace the adjusted EBIT measure with adjusted EBIT Margin (encourages continued focus on margin expansion) in the short-term incentive plan.

2)  Introduce 50% Relative Total Shareholder Return and 50% Free Cash Flow CAGR as the two metrics in the fiscal 2023, three-year, long-term incentive program for grants issued in May 2022. These metrics align with our objective of driving value for our stockholders and explicitly addressed their feedback. To further enhance the use of the new rTSR metric, fiscal 2023 award payouts will be capped for negative TSR. More details about the fiscal 2023 awards will be disclosed in the fiscal 2023 CD&A.

482022 Proxy StatementContents


Executive Compensation

DISCUSSION TOPICHOW THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE RESPONDED
We shared that the fiscal 2023 metrics in the short- and long-term plans reflect management’s direct impact to Company performance, increase alignment with stockholders’ experience, and are key drivers of long-term stockholder value creation. With these metrics, the Company is transitioning from the early turnaround stage to positioning for growth as we continue making progress on our Transformation Journey. The Compensation Committee will continue to consider other metrics, based in part on stockholder feedback, in the future.
Lowering the proportion of performance-based equity in the named executive officers’ long-term incentive grants in fiscal 2021 reduced the alignment of pay and performance.Compensation Committee Response: Beginning with the grants made for fiscal 2023 (May 2022), other than the CEO, who remains at the higher 70% PSU allocation (above peer median), the Compensation Committee increased the performance orientation of the long-term incentive equity of the leadership team by increasing the Performance Share Unit weighting from 50% to 60%. This ensured that the majority proportion of the equity compensation and total performance-based compensation and is also aligned with the median of our compensation peer group.
Shared rationale for CEO Total Target Compensation adjustment. No concerns were voiced by stockholders.

Compensation Committee Response: We discussed the Compensation Committee’s decision to set the CEO total target compensation in fiscal 2022 to align with market median of our executive compensation peer group (that we compete with for talent). The CEO’s Total Target Compensation moved from $13.75M to $16.75M to align with peers. Note that the amounts that will be shown in the Summary Compensation Table and other tables will be meaningfully higher, because such amounts reflect accounting grant date fair values, rather than the target value approved by the Compensation Committee. The Board aligned the CEO total target compensation to the median of a rigorously determined compensation peer group and 90% of the increase was allocated to the long-term equity portion of the compensation package.

In addition, as described earlier in the CD&A, the Compensation Committee held the CEO’s base salary, target annual cash incentive opportunity, and target long-term equity incentive opportunity flat for fiscal 2023.

Executive Compensation

DISCUSSION TOPICHOW THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE RESPONDED
Shared rationale for the amendment to the Change in Control severance provision. No concerns were voiced by stockholders.Compensation Committee Response: We discussed the Compensation Committee’s decision to adjust the Change in Control arrangement, particularly the cash severance multiple, to align with the design and quantum disclosed by the executive compensation peer group that we compete with for talent. The new design of a 3x multiple is within proxy advisory firm policy guidelines and allows the Company to provide market competitive severance compensation to attract and retain top executive talent. The policy retains double-trigger and no gross-up for excise taxes provisions. A competitive policy enables DXC’s executives to maintain focus on doing their jobs, even in a scenario where they might lose their positions, which preserves and protects value for stockholders.
Evolving market demands, investor feedback and industry best practices on ESG

Compensation Committee Response: ESG is a Company-wide focus. The Board and Management are actively engaged in setting ESG-related goals and monitoring progress. DXC released its first annual Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosure (TCFD) reports in 2022. These industry-recognized frameworks are integral to informing DXC’s ESG strategy and future initiatives.

More details on our ESG progress can be found in the ESG section of the DXC website.

Section III. COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY AND OBJECTIVES

As stated previously, at

At DXC, we are strongly committed to tying executive compensation to business performance. Throughout our evolution, our executive compensation program has been grounded in a pay for performance philosophy aimed at achieving strong alignment between the Company’s financial and strategic goals and our stockholders’ interests:

We are committed to a pay for performance culture. Our executive compensation program aims to motivate our people to perform at a consistently high level and rewards contributions that enhance our ability to deliver outstanding results for our customers and create value for our stockholders.

We believe that executive compensation should have a significant portion of pay at-risk, bealigned to stockholder interests and the long-term valuerealized by our stockholders through a balance of cash and equity.

We believe that the majority of an executive’s total target compensation should be variable and tied to achievement of measurable financial and strategic objectives that support the Company’s business strategy. Performance measures are reviewed annually to ensure that we continue to align our pay programs with our business strategy, create sustainable value, and motivate the right behaviors.

We understand that ourOur people are critical to our success. We aim to attract, retain, and retainincentivize the best talent with a range of backgrounds, skills, capabilities, and experiences to unlock value for our customers and enable our business to thrive.

We believe that executive compensation should becompetitive to attract the best talent. Actual pay varies based on individual/team and Company performance.

We believe that executive compensation should reflect an appropriate mix of short-term and long-term pay elements that make executives accountable for both short-term and long-term performance.

We engage with stockholders on a regular basis to obtain their input on our executive compensation program design and operation, so that we can incorporate stockholder feedback into our planning process and revisions to our program.

Section IV. COMPENSATION DETERMINATION PROCESS

Role of the Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing DXC’s executive compensation policies and programs. In fulfilling its responsibilities, the Compensation Committee reviews general trends in executive compensation, compensation plan design, and the total value and mix of compensation for our executive officers, including the CEO. On an annual basis, the Compensation Committee evaluates DXC’s executive compensation program to ensure it remains competitive in attracting, retaining, and motivating qualified executives, and supports our short-term and long-term business objectives.

The Compensation Committee considers various factors in determining compensation, including an executive’s experience, performance, and contributions, as well as the Company’s financial performance and overall business context. This flexibility is particularly important in designing compensation arrangements to attract and retain executives in a highly competitive, rapidly changing market. In addition, the Compensation Committee considers feedback the Company receives from stockholders when making decisions on the Company’s executive compensation practices.

Role of Management

The Compensation Committee coordinates with the President & Chief Executive Officer,CEO, the Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO), and the SVP, HR Global Performance, Rewards & Rewards,Sustainability, in collaboration with management and the finance and legal groups as appropriate, to design and develop the compensation program. This group supports the preparation and analysesanalysis of financial data, peer group comparisons, and other materials to assist the Compensation Committee in making and implementing its decisions.

The CEO, with the assistance of the CHRO and the SVP, HR Global Performance, Rewards & Rewards,Sustainability, also conducts an annual review of the total compensation of each executive officer, including the named executive officers. The review includes an assessment of each executive officer’s experience, performance, the performance of the executive officer’s respective business or function, and market pay levels within our peer group. After this review, the CEO recommends base salaries, target annual cash and long-term incentive opportunities, any payouts related to the annual cash incentive plan, and annual equity grants for the executive officers to the Compensation Committee for approval.

Role of Board
While the CEO provides recommendations to the Compensation Committee about executive officer compensation and Company-wide performance targets, the ultimate decisions regarding executive compensation are made by the Compensation Committee. When the Compensation Committee discusses the compensation recommendations of our CEO, our CEO does not play any role with respect to any matter affecting his own compensation and is not present.present during such discussions. The independent members of the boardBoard approve the CEO’s compensation, and the CEO does not participate in the discussion.

Role of the Independent Compensation Consultant

The Compensation Committee retains Pay Governance, an independent compensation consulting firm, to advise on executive compensation matters and provide additional information regarding whether DXC’s executive compensation program is reasonable and consistent with its objectives. Pay Governance reports directly to the Compensation Committee and regularly participates in Compensation Committee meetings at the request of the Compensation Committee Chairman. During fiscal 2022,2023, Pay Governance advised the Compensation Committee on executive compensation and governance trends; CEO and executive officer compensation; non-employee director compensation; incentive program design; selection of peer group companies; and the share usage and dilution in connection with the equity compensation plan.

Pay Governance has been retained since October 2020, and the Compensation Committee has the sole authority to retain, terminate, and obtain the advice of Pay Governance at the Company’s expense. The Compensation Committee assessed the independence of Pay Governance pursuant to SEC and NYSE rules and concluded that there are no conflicts of interest that prevent them from providing independent advisory services to the Compensation Committee.

2023 Proxy Statement



While the Compensation Committee took into consideration the review and recommendations of Pay Governance when making decisions about our executive compensation program, ultimately, the Compensation Committee made its own independent decisions in determining our executives’ compensation.

Compensation Peer Group and Peer Selection Process

The Compensation Committee believes that obtaining relevant market and benchmark data where we compete for talent is very important to making determinations about executive compensation. Such information provides a solid reference point for making decisions and very helpful context even though, relative to other companies, there are differences and unique aspects of the Company.

The Compensation Committee takes into consideration the structure and components of, and the amounts paid under, the executive compensation programs of other, comparable peer companies, as derived from public filings and other sources, when making decisions about the structure and component mix of our executive compensation program. The Compensation Committee also considers broader industry practices and our competitors for talent.

The Compensation Committee, with the assistance of its independent consultant, developed and maintained a peer group in connection with decisions made in fiscal 20222023 using the following criteria:

IT and professional services industries

Revenue in the range of 1/3x to 3x the revenue of DXC

Direct competitors for talent

Organizational scope/complexity (key financial and operating measures, number of employees, and profitability); and

Market capitalization

In determining the peer group, the criteria of competitors for talent, revenues, and headcount are given more weight in the Compensation Committee’s determination at this time than market capitalization, in part because of the view that DXC’s stock price is somewhat depressed and thus market capitalization is not as significant a factor.    

542022 Proxy Statement


Executive Compensation

DXC operates in an industry where the market for top talent is very competitive. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee recognizes that an accurate representation of DXC’s competition for talent includes a broad number of companies across the IT services landscape. In addition, we compete for talent and hire from industry leading organizations with larger market capitalizations. While DXC’s unique position as a leading end-to-end IT services company means there are relatively few pure-play IT companies of our size that are considered direct comparators, we believe that the peer group provides DXC and the Compensation Committee with a valid set of comparators and benchmarks for the Company’s executive compensation program and governance practices. In fiscal 2022,2023, no existing peerschanges were removed, but 5 additional peers, i.e., Aon, Fiserv, Leidos, Marsh & McLennan, and Willis Towers Watson, were addedmade to the existing peer group due to their assessed similarity in business model, such as consulting and revenue size. group.

Section V. COMPONENTS OF OUR COMPENSATION PROGRAMS

PROGRAM

Fiscal 20222023 Executive Compensation Program Overview

DXC’s executive compensation program reflects our Transformation Journey turnaround strategy and aligns with our pay for performance philosophy. The program for our NEOs for fiscal 20222023 is outlined in the table below. Our program was structured with a mix of variable and fixed compensation that incentivizes achievement of short-term financial objectives and long-term stockholder value creation and gives appropriate consideration to the objectives and measures of success entailed in our strategic priorities.

Fiscal 20222023 Pay Components

The Compensation Committee uses the components of compensation outlined in the chart below in order to achieve its executive compensation program objectives. The Compensation Committee has developed a balanced program, but also focuses on metrics that can be measured in the near-term that drive value for our stockholders. To verify that each executive officer’s total compensation is consistent with the Compensation Committee’s compensation philosophy and objectives and that the component is serving a purpose in supporting the execution of our strategy, the Compensation Committee regularly reviews all components of the program.

Base Salary

Base salary is designed to compensate executives for normal day-to-day responsibilities and represents the fixed component of annual total pay.

Base salaries are individually determined based on a variety of considerations, including individual and Company performance, responsibilities associated with the role, skills, experience, achievements, and the competitive market for the position.

In the Spring of 2021, at the time that

Mr. Salvino was appointed as the Company’s CEO in September 2019, andbring his target total direct compensation was set below the market 25th percentile. Considering Mr. Salvino’s strong performance leading the Transformation Journey turnaround strategy and during the COVID-19 pandemic, in fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee decidedcloser to increase his total compensation to bring it into line with the peer group median level, including increasing his base salary by 8%.

Overview

DXC’s fiscal 20222023 annual cash incentive plan’s pool funding, subject to additional caps on payouts, is calculated based on the following formula:

Executive Compensation

Target, Threshold, and Maximum Performance Levels

The Compensation Committee set the performance targets at levels that it considered rigorous and challenging, that required substantial effort to achieve, and that considered the relevant risks and degree of difficulty during our Transformation Journey turnaround strategy. The Compensation Committee also took into consideration the recent disposition of businesses as part of the strategic priorities.priorities and how such dispositions may affect the relevant financial performance of the Company. In determining specific financial goals for the year, the Compensation Committee reviewed the annual operating plan, various factors related to the achievability of budgeted goals, including the risks associated with various macroeconomic factors, and performance relative to prior years.

A key component of our Transformation Journey is to unlock value by rationalizing and optimizing our portfolio of businesses. The Company believes that these actions have the ability to position the Company for higher growth and expanded margins. Our portfolio shaping actions have included, and will include, disposing of non-core businesses and using proceeds to buy back outstanding shares of stock. While the Board and the Compensation Committee viewed these dispositions as being in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders, the loss of the revenue and earnings from these businesses necessarily affected the Company’s gross revenue and gross Adjusted EBIT and targets were set accordingly.

The fiscal 2022 Adjusted EBIT target, with 60% weighting, was set approximately 37% above the fiscal 2021 actual achievement, which was primarily driven by expectations regarding growth in Global Business Services (higher margin, positive organic growth business), optimization efforts, and strong performance on contracts, as well as the disposition of certain businesses.

The fiscal 2022 Revenue target, with 40% weighting, was set at a level approximately 6% below the fiscal 2021 actual result because of the previously disclosed dispositions of non-core businesses, and was quite rigorous and challenging to achieve.

The Compensation Committee set the threshold level such that significant performance as a percent of the target opportunity would need to be attained (80%(90% for Adjusted EBIT Margin % and 90%95% for Revenue)Organic Revenue Growth %, respectively) and set the maximum level at 110%105% for Organic Revenue Growth % and 120%110% for Adjusted EBIT Margin %, respectively, to underscore the importance of achieving the target and presentingpresent a significant challenge requiring exceptionally strong performance and significant effort to achieve.

If performance is above the maximum level, the maximum payout of 200% of target will be earned for that metric.

Individual Performance Modifier

Once the pool funding is determined, the pool funding percentage is applied to the product of (1)(i) the executive’s base salary and (2)(ii) the target opportunity percentage.

Such amount may then be subject to an individual performance modifier at the discretion of the Compensation Committee.

The individual modifier ranges from 0% to 200%, but for fiscal 20222023, it was not applied to any of the named executive officers for individual performance because they were all assessed as one team, as later explained in the “Performance Factor Based on Actions of the NEOs” section.

Target Opportunities

The Compensation Committee determines the target annual cash incentive opportunity available to each NEO by taking the individual’s base salary and multiplying it by the individual’s target incentive percentage. Among other factors, the target incentive percentages are determined with reference to the peer group company percentages of salary and the proportion of total direct compensation represented by the annual cash incentive.

Achievement of Financial Metrics

Ultimately, the Compensation Committee verifies achievement relative to the targets for Organic Revenue Growth % and Adjusted EBIT Margin % to determine the respective performance levels, and then translates those performance levels to pool funding levels.

As previously mentioned, a key component of our Transformation Journey turnaround strategy is to unlock value by rationalizing and optimizing our portfolio of businesses. The CEO, in agreement with the Board, viewed these dispositions as being in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders in the long-term. As a result of the dispositions, the year-over-year revenue and earnings from these businesses that were disposed of lowered the Company’s gross revenue and gross Adjusted EBIT values.

For fiscal 2022, as recommended by the CEO, and with full approval of the Compensation Committee, a negative modifier of approximately 7 percentage points was applied as a result of not achieving all optimization objectives in all countries. This decision signifies the importance of other business objectives, in addition to revenue and adjusted EBIT goals, in the achievement of our overall objectives. The Company pool funding for fiscal 2022 was adjusted downward from 82% calculated pool funding to 75%.

Performance Factor Based on Actions of the NEOs

During fiscal 2022,2023, our highest priority was to work together as one team to execute the Transformation Journey turnaroundbusiness strategy. As a result, the Compensation Committee and the CEO determined to evaluate the NEOs collectively as one team instead of assessing individual performance.one. For fiscal 2022,2023, the individual performance modifier was not used for the NEOs.

For background, in fiscal 2021, the Management team and the Compensation Committee took steps to integrate a human capital metric, employee engagement, to fund the annual incentive pool, underscoring our commitment to ESG. Based on prior stockholder feedback, starting in fiscal 2022, we did not use employee engagement, a non-financial metric, to fund the annual incentive pool. Instead, we used the employee engagement survey, run by a third-party provider, as an input to assess the performance of the management team.

The employee engagement score reinforces our commitment to human capital, which is a critical component of our ESG and people-first strategy that enables us to execute on the Transformation Journey. ESG is a growing Company-wide focus for DXC, and our Board and management are actively engaged in setting goals and monitoring progress. The Compensation Committee looks to our senior executive officers to be the most responsible for embodying the DXC culture and engaging employees.

In fiscal 2022, we achieved an engagement score of 72 and participation in the engagement survey increased from 61% to 78%, an indication that our people are engaged in building our culture and our leadership team is having a positive impact in taking care of our colleagues who are serving our customers.

In fiscal 2022, in addition to reviewing the employee engagement score, the Compensation Committee evaluated the performance of the CEO (as determined by the Board) and other NEOs (as provided by the CEO) as a team, based on the following Transformation Journey-related goals and achievements:

Inspire and take care of our colleagues, which was highlighted by how well DXC took care of our people throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and in the course of the Ukraine / Russian conflict.

Take care of our customers, as evidenced by our strong NPS score of 31, which is now above the industry benchmark range of 20 to 30 and demonstrates that our customers are very supportive of DXC in the marketplace.

Optimize costs, where our focus is on portfolio shaping and managing our cost base. We made good progress in portfolio shaping by divesting businesses that did not fit our strategy and we drove out costs across the organization, expanding our margins.

Long-Term Incentives


The third main component of our executive compensation program is long-term incentives delivered in the form of equity. Consistent with our pay for performance philosophy, this component is also the largest component of executive total pay. A higher weighting of performance-based incentives motivates executives to achieve superior financial results.

Long-term incentive equity awards are prospective in nature and intended to tie a substantial portion of an executive’s pay to creating long-term stockholder value. The Management teamCompensation Committee, based on recommendations from management and the Compensation Committeeits compensation consultant, structured the long-term incentive opportunity for the NEOs to motivate executive officers to achieve multi-year strategic goals and deliver sustained long-term value to stockholders, and to reward them for doing so.


602023 Proxy Statement


The use of equity as the vehicle for long-term incentives creates a strong link between performance and payouts, and a strong alignment between the interests of executive officers and our stockholders. Multi-year vesting improves retention because it gives executives an incentive to stay with the Company throughout the vesting period and be actively engaged in driving strong financial results.

We believe that

Finally, stock-based grants create an ownership mindset by giving executives an equity stake in the business, which gives them a strong incentive to manage the Company with the long-term perspective of an owner.

Equity Vehicles and Mix for Annual Grants
The Compensation Committee made changes to the PSU performance metrics for the fiscal 2023-2025 cycle to better align executive pay with stockholder value creation as well as business operation in light of our Transformation Journey. The Compensation Committee determined to use relative TSR and cumulative Free Cash Flow, weighted equally and measured over a three-year period.
The Compensation Committee then considered the relevant peer groups to use for relative TSR and selected the S&P 500 IT Services Index and a custom peer group targeting certain companies the Compensation Committee views as the Company’s competitors. For the cash generation metric, the Compensation Committee considered multiple Free Cash Flow measures that could be used for the PSU awards, including cumulative Free Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow compound annual growth rate, and Free Cash Flow per share. The Compensation Committee ultimately determined to use cumulative Free Cash Flow as the second performance metric for the fiscal 2023 PSUs due to its important role in measuring the overall financial performance and operating activities of our business.

*rTSR is defined as the Company’s total shareholder return (TSR) for the fiscal 2023 PSU performance period (4/1/2022-3/31/2025), in relation to the TSRs of the companies that are members of the comparison peer group described below. TSR means the difference between (i) the average price of a share of the relevant company’s stock during the 20 trading days immediately preceding and including the start date of the performance period and (ii) the average price of a share of the same company’s stock during the last 20 trading days of the performance period, plus the value of gross dividends paid as if reinvested in the relevant company’s stock on the ex-dividend date and other appropriate adjustments for such events as stock splits.

The Compensation Committee, in partnershiprelative TSR comparison companies for the fiscal 2023 PSUs, composed of the S&P 500 IT Services Index companies as of the start of the fiscal 2023 PSU performance period (excluding DXC Technology), plus 7 additional companies that we compete with Management, structured the mix of equity vehiclesfor business and capital, are used to measure the relative weight assigned to each type to motivate stock price growth over the long-term, which equates to stockholder value creation.

These comparison companies were reviewed and approved by the Compensation Committee.

The Compensation Committee used stock price growththe rTSR and cumulative FCF metrics because it is directlyboth are aligned with the value received by, and experience of, our stockholders.

In addition, stockholder feedback from our fiscal 2022 outreach reflected support and encouragement from our stockholders for the change to these new metrics.

The time-based RSUs are complementary to performance-based PSUs because they provide strong retention value, help balance periods of stock price volatility, and reinforce an ownership culture and commitment to creating stockholder value.

Fiscal 2022 Regular Annual PSU Grants

The PSUs granted to the NEOs represent the opportunity to earn shares at the end of the three-year performance cycle based 50% on the stock price growthcumulative FCF and 50% on rTSR for the performance period of fiscal 2022-2024. The NEOs will earn PSUs based on the three-month rolling average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock during the three-year fiscal 2022-2024 performance period (April 1, 2021, to March 31, 2024).

2023-2025.

The PSUs, if any, will vest atafter the end of athe three-year performance period, based on the three-month rolling average stock price improvement during the performance period. The target 3-month rolling average stock price is achieved at a rigorous 28% total stock price appreciation. The Compensation Committee determined that a target goal of 28% was rigorous for the fiscal 2022-2024 performance period in light of our progression to later stages of our Transformation Journey, the growth the Company has experienced since Mr. Salvino joined in the last two years, and exogenous factors impacting stock performance in our industry and the broader market. This target is significantly above the long-term S&P 500 index annualized return of 10.5% since its inception through calendar year 2021. The Compensation Committee deemed this to be a robust and rigorous target. Further, the Compensation Committee considered that 28% growth would result in 1.93 billion of stockholder value creation.

Executive Compensation

The vesting for the PSUs rangesrange from 0% to 200% of the target number of shares of the grant. There is no vesting unless there is at least 9% price appreciation (threshold achievement at which 40% of the target number of shares would be earned),grant, and the vesting is50% based on rTSR will be capped at 200% when stock price appreciation reaches 46% or higher (maximum achievement).100% for negative TSR. Since this is a 3-year cliff plan, the actual value received by NEOs will be based on the stock price at the time of vesting whenafter the 3-year performance period ends. Moreover, the vested shares are also subject to significant shareholding requirements, including 7x salary for the CEO. The Compensation Committee believes that the rigorous targets, long-term performance measurement and vesting period, and meaningful shareholding requirements ensure that our PSU program aligns with long-term stockholder interests and market practice.

Target Opportunities

The Compensation Committee established target long-term incentive opportunities for each of the NEOs, considering the following:

The values of, allocations to, and proportion of total compensation represented by the long-term incentive opportunities at the peer group companies;

Individual performance and criticality of, and expected future, contributions of the NEO;

Time in role, skills, and level of experience; and

Retention considerations.

The fiscal 2020 PSU goals were not achieved. Therefore, the entire fiscal 2020 PSU award was forfeited.

In fiscal 2020,2021, the Compensation Committee granted PSUs with performance-based vesting requirements for the three-year performance period of fiscal 2020-2022. There were two2021-2023. The PSUs granted to the NEOs represented the opportunity to earn shares at the end of the three-year performance cycle based on our stock price growth. The NEOs earned PSUs based on the average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock during the three-month period ending on the last day of the three-year fiscal 2020-2022 Company2021-2023 performance period compared to stock price targets.
The Compensation Committee set the performance levels with the timeline for the Transformation Journey in mind. It utilized compound annual growth rates (CAGRs) and corresponding stock price growth hurdles requiring successful execution of steps on the Transformation Journey, as evidenced by significant financial and operating performance measures, Earnings Per Share (EPS),achievement and corresponding translation to stock price performance.
More specifically, the threshold performance level required a rigorous 33% total stock price appreciation (or 10% CAGR in share price over the performance period) during the performance period, without which was weighted 75%,there is no payout, and Free Cash Flow, which was weighted 25%the target performance level requires total stock price appreciation of approximately 56% (16% CAGR in share price over the period).

The stock price growth rates are relative to the average closing price during the three-month period leading up to and including the grant date of June 2, 2020. PSU payouts ranged from 0% to 200% of the target number of shares of the grant, with the 200% vesting maximum representing a 26% CAGR or 100% stock price appreciation.

Career Shares

DXC grants Career Shares in the form of RSUs to a select, limited number of long-tenured key executives. The Career Share program replaced CSC’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, which was frozen in 2009 and is no longer maintained by DXC. The Career Share program is closed to new executives. At the beginning of fiscal 2022,2023, Mr. Deckelman received a grant of Career Shares equal to 25% of his fiscal 20212022 base salary and annual cash incentive award for fiscal 2021.2022. Career Shares have all fully vested as Mr. Deckelman has satisfied the requisite age and service for retirement.

Severance and Change in Control Compensation

To offer competitive total compensation packages to our executive officers, align the interests of our executives with the interests of our stockholders, as well as to ensure the ongoing retention of these individuals, DXC offers certain post-employmentpost- employment benefits to a select group of executives, including its NEOs.

Various plans and arrangements provide for the payment of certain severance and other benefits to participants for terminations not in connection with a change in control. These plans and arrangements generally provide for the payment of severance amounts if the CEO’s or other NEO’sNEOs’ employment is terminated by us without cause, or if the CEO terminates his employment for good reason. For such terminations, generally cash severance amounts are one times base salary plus a pro rata bonus, or one times the sum of base salary and target bonus, or two times the sum of base salary plus target bonus plus a pro rata bonus for the CEO and 12 months of Company-subsidized COBRA continuation ($1 million for the CEO). The vesting of the CEO’s inducement RSUs will be accelerated, and the CEO’s other RSUs would vest on a pro-rata basis; the CEO’s PSUs would remain outstanding and eligible to vest on a pro-rata basis based on the achievement of the performance goals at the end of the applicable performance period, provided at least one year in the performance period has elapsed as of the date of termination.

For fiscal 2022, we made several changes to the severance arrangements for our NEOs for qualifying employment terminations related to a change in control, in order to more closely align the arrangements between the CEO and our other NEOs, and to align these arrangements with market practices. As amended, our

Section VI. ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION POLICIES AND PRACTICES

Stock Ownership Guidelines

DXC’s stock ownership guidelines reflect the Company’s strategy of placing a stronger emphasis on pay for performance and achieving strong alignment between our financial goals and our stockholders’ interests. The Compensation Committee believes that stock ownership by executive officers further aligns their interests with those of long-term stockholders. We have equity ownership guidelines for senior level executives to encourage them to build their ownership positions in DXC’s common stock over time. The ownership guidelines for the CEO and other NEOs, expressed as a multiple of base salary, are as follows:

PositionMultiple of Base Salary
CEO7x
Other Executive Officers3x

Shares owned outright by the executive officer or jointly with, or separately by, his or her immediate family members residing in the same household, shares held in any DXC retirement plan, and unvested time-based RSUs may be counted toward the guideline, but unvested PSUs do not count toward the guideline. Covered executive officers are expected to attain the applicable ownership within five years of being appointed to their positions. The Compensation Committee reviews compliance with the guidelines on an annual basis.

Compensation Recoupment (Clawback)(Claw Back) Policy

DXC’s compensation recoupment or clawbackclaw back policy allows us to recover cash or equity performance-based compensation from participants whose fraud or intentional illegal conduct materially contributed to a financial restatement. The policy allows for the recovery of the difference between compensation awarded or paid and the amount which would have been paid had it been calculated based on the restated financial statements, excluding any tax payments. In addition, under our equity grant agreements, employees may be required to forfeit awards or gains if the recipient breaches the non-competition, non-solicitation of employees, or non-disclosure provisions of such agreements.

In light of rules recently issued by the SEC regarding claw back policies, we expect to review our claw back policy in fiscal 2024 and determine appropriate updates to our policy or to adopt a new policy to comply with the SEC’s new claw back rules.
Policies on Hedging and Pledging

Our policies prohibit employees, officers, and directors from engaging in any speculative or hedging transactions in our securities designed to hedge or offset decreases in the market value of DXC’s securities. No employee, officer, or director may engage in short sales of DXC securities, hold DXC securities in a margin account, or pledge DXC securities as collateral for a loan.

Tax Deductibility of Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally disallows a deduction for annual compensation in excess of $1 million that we pay to our CEO, CFO, our next three most highly compensated officers and any other individual who has served as one of our covered executive officers after 2016, other than pursuant to certain legacy compensation arrangements in effect on November 2, 2017. Compensation decisions for our NEOs are driven by market competitiveness and the other factors described above in this CD&A, and the Compensation Committee approves non-deductible compensation whenever it believes that corporate objectives justify the cost of being unable to deduct such compensation.

Risk Assessment

To assess the risks arising from our compensation policies and practices, management reviewed our various compensation programs for fiscal 2022,2023, and presented this risk assessment to the Compensation Committee. The risk assessment included a review of our compensation plans from various perspectives, as well as other aspects of our programs that mitigate risk, ultimately assessing whether the policies and practices could directly or indirectly encourage or mitigate risk-taking by executives or increase risk to DXC. The assessment concluded that our policies and programs

Executive Compensation

were not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. We also considered the Company’s robust executive stock ownership guidelines, clawbackclaw back policy and anti-hedging and anti-pledging policies as risk mitigatingrisk-mitigating features of our executive compensation program.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

We follow the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, or ASC Topic 718, for our stock-based compensation awards. ASC Topic 718 requires companies to calculate the grant date “fair value” of their stock-based awards using a variety of assumptions. ASC Topic 718 also requires companies to recognize the compensation cost of their stock-based awards in their income statements over the period that an employee is required to render service in exchange for the award. Grants of PSUs and RSUs under our equity incentive award plans are accounted for under ASC Topic 718. The Compensation Committee will regularly consider the accounting implications of significant compensation decisions, especially in connection with decisions that relate to our equity incentive award plans and programs. As accounting standards change, the Compensation Committee may revise certain programs to appropriately align accounting expenses of equity awards with the overall executive compensation philosophy and objectives.

A substantial portion of the stock awards granted consisted of PSUs. For all PSUs, the amounts included in Column (e) reflect the value at the grant date based upon the estimated performance during the performance period at 100% of target. The maximum grant date values of the fiscal 2022 stock awards (including service-vesting RSUs and Career Shares, and assuming that PSUs were to have a payout at the maximum of 200% of target) are as follows:

1.

The amounts shown in columns (d), (e) and (f) reflect the threshold, target and maximum amounts which could be earned under the annual cash incentive plan for fiscal 2022. Actual amounts earned for fiscal 2022 under the annual cash incentive plan are set forth in column (g) of the Summary Compensation Table.

2.

Fiscal 2022 PSU vesting is based on stock price target hurdles throughout a three-year period. The number of PSUs that may vest ranges from 40% (threshold) to 200% (maximum). If performance thresholds are not met, no PSUs vest. If performance thresholds are met, settlement of any vested shares is made after the end of the third fiscal year. The Compensation Committee will make a conclusive determination as to the number of PSUs earned and vested only after the end of fiscal 2024. Vesting based on performance is generally subject to the NEO’s continued employment through the end of the third fiscal year.

3.

Time-based RSUs do not have a threshold or maximum. The time-based RSUs vest one-third per year on the first three anniversaries of the grant date.

4.

All Mr. Deckelman’s Career Shares have vested, with settlement to be made in ten equal installments beginning one year following retirement.

1.The amounts shown in columns (d), (e) and (f) reflect the threshold, target and maximum amounts which could be earned under the annual cash incentive plan for fiscal 2023. Actual amounts earned for fiscal 2023 under the annual cash incentive plan are set forth in column (g) of the Summary Compensation Table.
2.Fiscal 2023 PSUs are earned and vest based 50% on cumulative Free Cash Flow performance and 50% on relative total shareholder return (rTSR) performance, as measured over a three-year performance period. The number of PSUs that may vest ranges from 50% (threshold) to 200% (maximum). If performance thresholds are not met, no PSUs vest. If performance thresholds are met, settlement of any vested shares is made after the end of the third fiscal year. The Compensation Committee will make a conclusive determination as to the number of PSUs earned and vested only after the end of fiscal 2025. Vesting based on performance is generally subject to the NEO’s continued employment through the end of the third fiscal year.
3.Time-based RSUs do not have a threshold or maximum. The time-based RSUs vest one-third per year on the first three anniversaries of the grant date.
4.All of Mr. Deckelman’s Career Shares have vested, with settlement to be made in ten equal installments beginning one year following retirement.

Fiscal 20222023 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

participant is required to select from among four notional investment options, and deferred amounts are credited with earnings (or losses) based on the participant’s investment choices. The notional investment options mirror actual investment options offered under DXC’s Matched Asset Plan. The annual returns of the notional investment options for the twelve-month period ending March 31, 20222023 were as follows: SSgA Money Market Fund, 0.02%2.6%; BlackRock Core Bond 4.16%Fund, -4.7%; Mellon S&P 500 Index Fund, 15.65%-7.7%; and SSgA Target Retirement Income 3.27%Fund, -4.97%. Participants elect when they wish to receive distributions of their Deferred Compensation Plan account balances upon termination of employment, death, disability, change in control, or a date certain. There is a potential six-month delay in payments under the Deferred Compensation Plan to certain specified employees (as determined under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code) for amounts deferred on or after January 1, 2005 (as determined under Section 409A). The Deferred Compensation Plan provides for the crediting of earnings during any such payment delay period.

The following table summarizes, for each NEO, the contributions and earnings under DXC’s Deferred Compensation Plan in fiscal 20222023 and the aggregate account balance as of March 31, 2022.2023. No NEO received deferred compensation under the Deferred Compensation Plan during fiscal 2023. Mr. Sharp wasis the only NEO who participatedwith an account balance, due to his prior deferral of compensation in the Deferred Compensation Plan during fiscal 2022. There were no Company contributions to the Deferred Compensation Plan on behalf of any NEOs for fiscal 2022.

Potential Payments Upon Change in Control and Termination of Employment

DXC offers certain post-employment benefits to a select group of executive officers, including the NEOs. With the exception of Mr. Salvino, these post-employment benefits are limited to the payments and benefits provided under the Severance Plan and the Severance Policy, (or individual offer letters in lieu of the Severance Policy), and the terms of our equity award agreements. Mr. Salvino did not participate in the Severance Plan or the Severance Policy; however, heMr. Salvino was entitled to certain post-employment benefits under his employment agreement.

The post-employment arrangements offered to our NEOs during fiscal 20222023 are described below. This description and the amounts in the tables that follow reflect the terms of arrangements in effect on March 31, 2022.

2023.

Severance Plan for Senior Management and Key Employees (Severance Plan)

Each of the NEOs other than Mr. Salvino participated in the Severance Plan, which provides certain benefits to participants in the event of a Change ofin Control (as defined below) of DXC. If there were a Change ofin Control and any of the participating NEOs either:

had a voluntary termination of employment for Good Reason (as defined below) within two years afterward, or

had an involuntary termination of employment, other than for death, disability or Cause (as defined below), within three years afterward,

then he/she would receive a one-time payment and certain health and welfare benefits during a specified period after termination. The amount of the one-time payment is generally equal to a multiple of annual base salary plus the greater of (1) the average of the three most recent annual cash incentive awards paid or determined, (2) the target annual bonus for the year of termination, or (3) the most recent annual bonus paid or determined prior to termination. For each of the participating NEOs, the multiple is 2x and the post-termination period for health and welfare benefit continuation is 24 months. Participating NEOs are also entitled to a pro-rata annual bonus for the year of termination.

There is a potential six-month delay in payments and benefits provided under the Severance Plan to certain specified employees (as determined under Section 409A). The Severance Plan provides for the crediting of earnings during any such payment or benefits delay period.

The Severance Plan does not provide for any tax gross-ups on any amounts payable in connection with a Change in Control.

For purposes of the Severance Plan, the following definitions apply:

Change ofin Control means the consummation of a change in the ownership of DXC, a change in effective control of DXC or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of DXC, in each case, as defined under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

A participant’s termination of employment with DXC is deemed for Good Reason if it occurs within six months of any of the following without the participant’s express written consent:

1.A substantial change in the nature, or diminution in the status, of the participant’s duties or position from those in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control;
2.A reduction by DXC in the participant’s annual base salary as in effect on the date of a Change in Control or as in effect thereafter if such compensation has been increased and such increase was approved prior to the Change of Control;
3.A reduction by DXC in the overall value of benefits provided to the participant, as in effect on the date of a Change in Control or as in effect thereafter if such benefits have been increased and the increase was approved prior to the Change in Control;

1.

A substantial change in the nature, or diminution in the status, of the participant’s duties or position from those in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control;

2.

A reduction by DXC in the participant’s annual base salary as in effect on the date of a Change of Control or as in effect thereafter if such compensation has been increased and such increase was approved prior to the Change of Control;

3.

A reduction by DXC in the overall value of benefits provided to the participant, as in effect on the date of a Change of Control or as in effect thereafter if such benefits have been increased and the increase was approved prior to the Change of Control;

4.

A failure to continue in effect any stock option or other equity-based or non-equity based incentive compensation plan in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control, or a reduction in the participant’s participation in any such plan, unless the participant is afforded the opportunity to participate in an alternative incentive compensation plan of reasonably equivalent value;

Non-Change in Control Executive Officer Severance Policy (Severance Policy)

The Company also maintains the Severance Policy to provide severance benefits to certain executives whose employment with the Company is terminated in situations not involving a change in control. The Severance Policy covers executive officers reporting directly to the CEO who are subject to Section 16 of the 1934 Act, and certain other non-Section 16 officers, and provides for benefits similar to those offered under the Severance Plan. Upon termination of employment by DXC without Cause (as defined above), each covered executive may receive, inat the discretion of DXC and the Compensation Committee, up to 12 months of base salary continuation, paid in installments, and up to 12 months of DXC-provided healthcare coverage continuation. Terminated executives also are eligible to receive a pro-rata portion of the annual cash incentive award earned for the year of employment termination, subject to approval by the Compensation Committee.

In addition, certain NEOs (including Messrs. Sharp and BagalDrumgoole and Ms. Finch) are entitled under the terms of individual offer letters with the Company to severance benefits similar to, and in lieu of, the benefits provided under the Severance Policy above, except that the amount of the severance is equal to 1x base salary plus target bonus, is payable in a lump sum and may (in certain cases) be paid on a termination by the executive for good reason in addition to a termination by the Company without cause.

Vesting of Equity Awards

Upon an NEO’s qualifying termination of employment within two years following a Change ofin Control (as defined above), RSUs and PSUs granted by DXC provide for accelerated vesting (with PSUs granted prior to fiscal 2021 vesting at 100% of

In general, a qualifying termination of employment includes termination of the executive’s employment without cause at a time when the employee is meeting performance expectations (or, for Mr. Salvino, pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement, a termination without cause or termination for good reason), or termination due to death, disability, or retirement (for outstanding fiscal 2022 and prior equity awards, executive qualifies for retirement if separation from service occurs on or after age 62 with at least 10 years of service.

For terminations unrelated to a change in control, all DXC annual equityRSU awards provide for accelerated vesting (unless the Compensation Committee determines otherwise) upon retirement (as defined above), other than for Cause (as defined above), at age 62 or older with at least 10 years of service (and,and, in the case of PSUs, provided at least one year has elapsed during the performance period)period, then a pro-rata fraction of the award will vest after the performance period based on actual achievement). Mr. Deckelman was the only NEO eligible to retire under thiseither definition stated above, as of March 31, 2022,2023, the last day of fiscal 2022.2023. In addition, all annual equity awards provide for accelerated vesting upon an executive’s termination of employment due to death or permanent disability, with vesting of annual-cycle PSUs occurring with respect to only a pro-rata fraction of the target amount (based on the executive’s service during the applicable performance period), as opposed to the full target amount. Mr. Salvino is entitled to accelerated vesting of equity awards in certain additional circumstances as described in “Employment Agreement with Mr. Salvino”Salvino,” below. Upon a termination of employment not in connection with a changeChange in controlControl for any reason other than those set forth in this paragraph, all annual equity awards will be forfeited.

Employment Agreement with Mr. Salvino

Mr. Salvino’s annual compensation opportunity is governed by his employment agreement. Pursuant to the employment agreement, DXC has agreed to employ Mr. Salvino as its President and Chief Executive Officer through September 30, 2022, at a minimum annual base salary of $1,250,000 and an annual cash incentive award with a target opportunity of 200% of base salary and a maximum amount of 400% of base salary. With respect to each fiscal year which commences during the term of his employment agreement, Mr. Salvino also will receive equity awards with an aggregate value of 800% of base salary, in each case on terms and conditions that are generally consistent with those applicable to awards granted to other senior executive officers of DXC. The employment agreement also provides for certain benefits and perquisites and certain severance benefits described below. Mr. Salvino reports directly to the Board of Directors, and his salary and target incentive are subject to annual review and increase by the Board.

In the event that Mr. Salvino’s employment terminates for any reason, he is entitled to a $1 million payment in lieu of lifetime participation in our group health plan. In addition, if Mr. Salvino’s employment is terminated by DXC without cause or if he resigns from DXC for good reason (as each such term is defined in the employment agreement and collectively referred to as a Qualifying Termination), he wouldwill receive the following payments under the terms of the agreement:

a pro-rata annual cash incentive award for the year in which the termination occurred, based on DXC’s actual performance for the entire fiscal year, payable at the time annual cash incentive awards are generally paid (the pro-rata bonus);

In general, in the event of a Qualifying Termination that is not in connection with a changeChange in control,Control, any outstanding annual-cycle RSU awards would vest on a pro-rata basis, any outstanding inducement RSUs would vest in full (without pro ration)proration), and any outstanding, annual-cycle PSU awards as to which at least one year in the performance period has lapsed at the time of termination would remain outstanding and eligible to vest, based on performance as if termination had not occurred. In the event of a Qualifying Termination in connection with a change in control, any outstanding RSUs or PSUs would vest in full (with outstanding PSUs granted prior to fiscal 2021 vesting at 100% of target and outstanding PSUs granted in fiscal 2021 or later vesting at the greater of target or actual performance achieved as of the changeChange in control)Control). The employment agreement also provides that upon the termination of Mr. Salvino’s employment due to death or disability, he would be eligible to receive a pro rata bonus. Any outstanding inducement RSUs would vest in full upon Mr. Salvino’s termination due to death or disability as well.

The severance benefits described above are subject to Mr. Salvino’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims against the Company and certain related parties and his continued compliance with certain restrictive covenants as set forth in the employment agreement and the non-competition and non-solicitation agreement we have entered into with him. The non-competition and non-solicitation agreement provides that Mr. Salvino will be subject to certain restrictive covenants, including (1) non-disclosure restrictions, (2) non-solicitation of DXC’s employees, clients and prospective clients during the term of his employment and for a period of twenty-four months thereafter and (3) non-competition during the term of his employment and for a period of twelve months thereafter.

There would be a six-month delay in payments and benefits provided under the employment agreement following certain terminations of Mr. Salvino’s employment if such payments and benefits were determined to be subject to the provisions of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code at the time of termination. The employment agreement provides for the crediting of earnings during any such payment or benefits delay period.

Mr. Salvino’s employment agreement does not provide for any tax gross-ups on any amounts payable in connection with a Change in Control.

Change in Control and Termination of Employment Payment Tables

The tables below reflect the value of compensation and benefits that would have become payable to each of the NEOs under DXC plans and arrangements existing as of March 31, 20222023 (the final day of fiscal year 2022)2023), if the executive’s employment had terminated on that date in the circumstances explained below. These amounts are reported based upon the executive’s compensation and service levels as of such date and, if applicable, in accordance with SEC regulations, based on DXC’s closing stock price of $32.63$25.56 on March 31, 2022,2023, the last trading day of fiscal 2022.2023. These benefits are in addition to benefits available prior to the occurrence of any termination of employment, including under then-exercisable stock options, retirement plans and deferred compensation plans, and benefits available generally to salaried employees, such as distributions under DXC’s broad-based 401(k) plan. The actual amounts that would be paid upon an NEO’s termination of employment can be determined only at the time of any such event. Due to the number of factors that affect the nature and amount of any benefits provided upon such an event, any actual amounts paid or distributed may be higher or lower than reported below. Factors that could affect these amounts include the timing during the year of any such event, DXC’s stock price and the executive’s age and service.

Upon an NEO’s termination due to death or disability, a pro rata portion of annual cycle PSUs vest at target and all service-based RSUs vest in full (without pro ration).

6.

For Mr. Deckelman (who has attained age 62 with at least 10 years of service) upon retirement or any other termination (other than by the Company for cause, death or disability), a pro rata portion (based on NEO’s service during the performance period) of annual cycle PSUs as to which at least one year in the performance period has elapsed at the time of termination would remain outstanding and eligible to vest at the end of the performance period, based on performance as if termination had not occurred. No value is reported in the “Performance-Vesting RSUs” column of the table above because vesting remains subject to ongoing performance conditions. As of March 31, 2022, the potential total value would be $2,031,868 which includes 0% payout of the fiscal 2020 PSUs based on performance and 200% of the fiscal 2021 PSUs based on performance. In addition, a pro-rata portion of service-based RSUs vest based on service during the vesting period.

2022 Proxy Statement81


Fiscal 2023 CEO Pay Ratio

Fiscal 2022 CEO Pay Ratio

As required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, we are disclosing the ratio of annualized total compensation of our CEO, Mr. Salvino, to our median employee’s annual total compensation. We used the same median employee in our pay ratio calculation for fiscal 20222023 as we used in fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, as permitted under the SEC rules, because there has been no change in our employee population or compensation arrangements that we believe would significantly impact our pay ratio disclosure.

As required under the SEC rules, a new median employee will be identified for the fiscal 2024 disclosure.

The SEC’s rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices. As a result, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported below, as other companies have different employee populations and compensation practices and may use different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.

The methodology we used to determine the required disclosure consisted of the following:

We used January 1, 2021, as the date to identify our median employee. The median employee was determined by using total taxable income, also referred to as W-2 earnings, for all U.S. employees and equivalent total taxable income for employees located outside of the United States, for the 2020 calendar year;

Annualized salaries for full-time and part-time permanent employees that were not employed for the full calendar year of 2020 were used. We did not annualize the salaries of seasonal or temporary employees;

For employees located outside of the United States, local currency compensation was converted to U.S. dollars using the Company’s standard exchange rates for fiscal 2021, which are also used for financial reporting purposes;

Given DXC’s presence in approximately 70 countries, in determining the median employee we used cost-of-living adjustments to normalize differences in the underlying economic conditions of the countries where DXC operates, as permitted under the rules. Cost-of-living adjustments were initially based on the World Bank’s 2020 PPP ratio, or Purchasing Power Parity, for all countries outside of the United StatesStates; and World Bank’s 20212022 PPP ratio was used to update our median employee’s compensation data for this fiscal 20222023 disclosure; and

As permitted by the de minimis exemption under the rules, we excluded 6,847 employees in Costa Rica (1,845), Switzerland (616), New Zealand (566), Sweden (448), Hungary (441), Lithuania (342), Ireland (302), Hong Kong (266), Portugal (259), Chile (258), Austria (250), Norway (225), Taiwan (216), Thailand (205), Serbia (113), Colombia (108), Luxembourg (106), Finland (75), Peru (74), Republic of Korea (68), Indonesia (35), Fiji (15), Panama (6), Greece (5), Croatia (2), and Cyprus (1) who, as a group, represented approximately 5% of our total employee population of nearly 131,500 on January 1, 2021. As a result of these exclusions, the employee population used to identify our median employee consisted of approximately 124,650 employees.

In accordance with the Pay Ratio Rule, we calculated the median employee’s annual total compensation in the same manner as the CEO’s annual total compensation was calculated in the fiscal 20222023 Summary Compensation Table. Our previously identified median employee, determined using cost-of-living adjustments, resides in the Philippines. The annual total compensation of the median employee was $44,156.$39,684. The total compensation of Mr. Salvino, our CEO, was $28,716,680,$20,317,972, the amount reported in the “Total” column of the Summary Compensation Table. Accordingly, the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the annual total compensation of our median employee was 650:512:1. Without the application of cost-of-living adjustments, the previously identified median employee resides in India. The annual total compensation of the median employee was $31,294,$34,107, resulting in a ratio of 918:596:1.

Pay versus Performance Disclosure
This new, required disclosure intends to compare “Pay versus Performance” and prescribes a method to calculate “Compensation Actually Paid” (CAP) to represent pay. The CAP values shown in the table below do not reflect the compensation actually earned, realized, or received by the Principal Executive Officer (PEO) or the Non-PEO NEOs. In addition, while the table shows the Summary Compensation Table (SCT) compensation and CAP values side by side, they are not comparable. As such, the Compensation Committee did not consider the information provided in the table in structuring or determining compensation for our PEO or our Non-PEO NEOs. For a complete discussion of our executive compensation program and the Compensation Committee’s philosophy and approach to executive compensation, please refer to the CD&A section of this fiscal 2023 Proxy Statement.

What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

13.What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

Most of our stockholders hold their shares through a broker, bank or other nominee rather than directly in their own name. As summarized below, there are some differences between shares held of record and those owned beneficially.

Stockholder of Record. If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, EQ Shareowner Services, you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and the notice or these proxy materials are being sent directly to you. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the individuals listed on the proxy card, to submit proxies electronically or by telephone or to vote at the annual meeting. If you have requested printed proxy materials, we have enclosed a proxy card for you to use.

Beneficial Owner. If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and your broker, bank or other nominee is considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares. If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and do not have a 16-digit control number on the Notice of Internet Availability,notice, on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials, please contact your broker, bank or other nominee well in advance of the Annual Meeting for instructions on how to obtain a 16-digit control number and access the virtual meeting as a “stockholder.” Without first obtaining your 16-digit control number and logging in as a “stockholder,” you will still be able to attend the meeting by logging in as a guest; however, you will not be able to vote your shares or ask questions during the meeting.

15.How many votes are required to elect directors and adopt the other proposals?
Proposal1—Electionofeachofthe 1011 director nomineeslistedinthis proxy statement.


Directors are elected by a majority vote in uncontested elections. Therefore, each director nominee must receive a majority of the votes cast with respect to such nominee at the annual meeting (the number of FOR votes must exceed the number of AGAINST votes). Abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted as votes FOR or AGAINST any nominee; therefore, they will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.

In accordance with DXC’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, if an incumbent director nominee fails to receive the requisite number of votes, such director nominee shall promptly tender his or her resignation for consideration by the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee. Within 30 days following the certification of the stockholder vote, the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee will make a recommendation to the Board of Directors as to the treatment of any director who did not receive a majority vote, including whether to accept or reject any tendered resignation. The Board of Directors will make a final determination within 90 days following the certification of the election results, and publicly disclose its decision and rationale.

For this proposal, which is non-binding, you may choose to express a preference for holding future advisory votes on named executive officer compensation every one, two or three years. Abstentions and, if applicable, broker non-votes will not be counted as expressing any preference. The frequency option that receives the most affirmative votes of all the votes cast on Proposal 4 is the option that will be deemed the recommendation of the stockholders.
16.What if I don’t give specific voting instructions?
Stockholders of Record. If you are a stockholder of record and you:

indicate when voting by Internet or by telephone that you wish to vote as recommended by our Board, or

return a signed proxy card but do not indicate how you wish to vote,

then your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of the Board on all matters presented in this proxy statement and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion regarding any other matters properly presented for a vote at the meeting. If you indicate a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon on your proxy card, the shares will be voted in accordance with your instructions.

Beneficial Owners. If you hold shares beneficially in “street name” and do not provide your broker, bank or nominee with voting instructions or attend the meeting and vote, your shares may constitute “broker non-votes” on certain non-routine proposals. Generally, broker non-votes occur on a non-routine proposal where a broker, bank or nominee is not permitted to vote on that proposal without instructions from the beneficial owner, and instructions are not given. Broker non-votes are considered present at the annual meeting, but not as voting on a matter. Thus, broker non-votes are counted as present for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum, but are not counted for purposes of determining whether a matter has been approved.

You should instruct your broker, bank or nominee how to vote. If you do not provide your broker, bank or nominee with instructions, under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange,NYSE, your broker, bank or nominee will not be authorized to vote your “street name” shares with respect to any proposal other than the ratification of the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm (Proposal 2), which is considered a routine matter. The other proposals are not considered routine matters, and without your instructions, your broker, bank or nominee cannot vote your shares.

Householding; Availability of 20222023 Annual Report and Proxy Statement


The SEC permits DXC to deliver a single copy of proxy materials to an address shared by two or more stockholders. This delivery method, referred to as “householding,” can result in significant cost savings for the Company. To take advantage of this opportunity, DXC, and banks and brokerage firms that hold your shares, have delivered only one copy of proxy materials to multiple stockholders who share an address unless one or more of the stockholders has provided contrary instructions. DXC will deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a separate copy of proxy materials to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the documents was delivered.

Appendix

Appendix A – Independence Standards

A director is “independent” if the Board of Directors has determined that he or she has no material relationship with DXC Technology or any of its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), either directly, or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the Company. For purposes of this definition, the Board has determined that a director is not “independent” if:

1.

The director is, or has been within the last three years, an employee of the Company, or an immediate family member of the director is, or has been within the last three years, an executive officer of the Company;

2.

The director has received, or has an immediate family member who has received, during any 12-month period during the last three years, more than $120,000 in direct compensation from the Company (other than Board and Committee fees, and pension or other forms of deferred compensation for prior service). Compensation received by an immediate family member for service as an employee (other than an executive officer) of the Company is not considered for purposes of this standard;

3.

(a) The director, or an immediate family member of the director, is a current partner of the Company’s internal or external auditor; (b) the director is a current employee of the Company’s internal or external auditor; (c) an immediate family member of the director is a current employee of the Company’s internal or external auditor who participates in the firm’s audit, assurance or tax compliance (but not tax planning) practice; or (d) the director, or an immediate family member of the director, was within the last three years (but is no longer) a partner or employee of the Company’s internal or external auditor and personally worked on the Company’s audit within that time;

4.

The director, or an immediate family member of the director, is, or has been within the last three years, employed as an executive officer of another company where any of the Company’s present executive officers serves or served at the same time on that company’s Compensation Committee; or

5.

The director is a current employee, or an immediate family member of the director is a current executive officer, of a company that has made payments to, or received payments from, the Company for property or services in an amount that, in any of the last three fiscal years, exceeds the greater of $1 million or 2% of the other company’s consolidated gross revenues.

An “immediate family” member includes a director’s spouse, parents, children, siblings, mother-in-law and father-in-law,sons-in-law and daughters-in-law,brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law, and anyone (other than a domestic employee) who shares the director’s home.

Appendix B

Appendix B – Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (Adjusted EBIT), Organic Revenue Growth, Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings Perper Share, and Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures. We present these non-GAAP financial measures to provide investors with meaningful supplemental financial information, in addition to the financial information presented on a GAAP basis. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain items from GAAP results which DXC management believes are not indicative of core operating performance. DXC management believes these non-GAAP measures provides investors supplemental information about the financial performance of DXC exclusive of the impacts of corporate wide strategic decisions. DXC management believes that adjusting for these items provides investors with additional measures to evaluate the financial performance of our core business operations on a comparable basis from period to period. DXC management believes the non-GAAP measures provided are also considered important measures by financial analysts covering DXC as equity research analysts continue to publish estimates and research notes based on our non-GAAP commentary.

The Compensation Committee used certain of these Non-GAAP measures as a performance metric in structuring our annual incentive program. The use of these measures is not intended to replace comparable GAAP measures as set forth in our consolidated financial statements. We believe that these Non-GAAP measures are helpful to management and investors as a measure of operating performance because they excludes various items that do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance.

There are limitations to the use of the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this proxy statement. One of the limitations is that they do not reflect complete financial results. We compensate for this limitation by providing a reconciliation between our non-GAAP financial measures and the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes between companies.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO STOCKHOLDERS

VOTING PREVENTS ESCHEATMENT

Most states have escheatment laws which require DXC to transfer stockholder accounts when they meet that state’s criteria for abandoned property. These laws require DXC to issue a replacement stock certificate to the applicable state and the certificate in the stockholder’s possession is cancelled on the records of DXC’s transfer agent. While the specified number of years varies by state, escheatment generally occurs if you have not voted during a three-year period and you have not contacted DXC’s transfer agent during that time. After delivery to the state, the stock often is sold and claimants are given only the proceeds of the sale, which may or may not be to your benefit, depending on the subsequent trend of the stock price. In addition, it can take many months to retrieve custody of the stock or the proceeds of its sale.

Therefore, it is very important that you vote and that DXC has your current address. If you have moved, please provide your new address to DXC’s transfer agent: EQ Shareowner Services, P.O. Box 64874, St. Paul, MN 55164-0874; telephone 800.468.9716; and Internet address: shareowneronline.com. Please inform EQ if there are multiple accounts or stock is held under more than one name.
