On August 25, 2022, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission adopted a final rule requiring new disclosures for public companies regarding the relationship between executive compensation and company performance. Among other things, companies are now required to develop a new table that discloses multi-year compensation data side-by-side with prescribed financial performance metrics and a company-specified metric that the company views as the “most important” financial measure used to link executive compensation to corporate performance. Our Securities & Capital Markets colleagues published this alert discussing the new rule and how companies might approach compliance in their next proxy statement. The alert will be of interest to corporate secretaries, executive compensation professionals, securities and disclosure counsel, controllers, and other related stakeholders.
