The majority of Ball’s sales and earnings are generated from our global packaging business, and members of the DJCPI compete across similar markets and product categories for rigid packaging and secondary packaging. While short-term share price movements may not fully capture our progress in 2024, the foundation we are building, through growing volumes, robust cash flow, increasing EVA dollars and significant capital returns, positions us to drive sustained value for shareholders in the years ahead. Ball’s 1-year, 3-year and 5-year total shareholder returns are shown below, relative to both the DJCPI and the S&P 500. ​ ​ (6) 2024 net income included the proceeds of the sale of our Aerospace business. ​ (7) Our Company Selected Measure is EVA ® as it is the lens used to measure business and strategic initiatives. There is a high correlation between our total executive compensation actually paid compared to our EVA ® performance over the past three years. As mentioned under “Changes to Executive Compensation for 2025”, the company has made changes to the incentive programs for 2025 to ensure that our compensation plans are aligned to our strategy of simplifying sustainability for our customers by delivering scalable aluminum packaging solutions and to our ambition of achieving a $30 billion market capitalization by 2030. EVA ® has served us well as our key incentive metric and will continue to play a role going forward. However, from 2025 we will use a broader set of incentive measures to support our new strategy. ​ ​
