Footnotes from the filing
The number of performance stock units ("PSUs") that vested was based on the Company's cumulative adjusted earnings per share for the period January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2025. The actual performance of $67.67 exceeded the maximum payout threshold of $66.46 and therefore yielded an award of 123% of target; including the reinvestment of dividends paid during such period, the award is 124.1% of target.
