| Pay vs Performance Disclosure, Table | Pay Versus Performance As required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship between executive “compensation actually paid” or “CAP” and certain financial performance of the Company. You should refer to the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section in this proxy statement for a description of our pay-for-performance philosophy and how we design our compensation programs to align executive compensation with the Company’s performance. Pay for Performance Table The following table shows, for the fiscal years 2024, 2023, 2022 and 2021: • the total compensation for our CEO as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”); • the CAP for our CEO (as determined under SEC rules); • the total compensation for our other NEOs, on an average basis, as set forth in the SCT; • the CAP for our other NEOs, on an average basis (as determined under SEC rules); • our total shareholder return, or “TSR”; • the TSR of the Peer Group we selected, which is the Dow Jones Diversified Industrials Index; • our net income (loss); and • Adjusted Earnings Per Share, or “Adjusted EPS” – which is the financial performance measure we selected as being the most important measure for linking compensation for our NEOs to company performance.
