Executive Long-Term Incentive Plans 2024

Executive Long-Term Incentive Plans,  an Equilar publication, examines the performance metrics associated with long-term incentive awards granted to CEOs and other NEOs at companies in the Equilar 500.

For this analysis, data includes performance metric measurement approaches, weightings, performance ranges as a percentage of target performance and as a percentage of target payout, and relative TSR percentile goal ranges.
