Pay Versus Performance

 

The following table illustrates certain information about executive compensation for the Company’s Principal Executive Officer (“PEO”) and other named executive officers (“NEOs”) as well as certain performance measures against which compensation information can be compared. This disclosure has been prepared in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K of the Exchange Act and does not necessarily reflect value actually realized by our NEOs or how our Compensation Committee evaluates compensation decisions in light of Company or individual performance. Please refer to the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” for a discussion of our executive compensation program, its objectives, and the ways in which we align executive compensation with Company performance.

The fair values of RSUs and stock awards included in the Summary Compensation Table Total Compensation are calculated at the required measurement dates, consistent with the approach used to value the awards at the grant date as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Any changes to the RSU and stock award fair values from the grant date (for current year grants) and from prior year-end (for prior year RSU grants) are based on our updated stock price at the respective measurement dates. For all years presented, the meaningful increases in the year-end RSU fair value from the fair value on the grant date were primarily driven by changes in the stock price.

 

(3) As described in the section titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis”, our peer group includes the following companies: Accuray, Inc., AngioDyamics, Inc., Anika Therapeutics, Inc., Atrion Corp, Avanos Medical, Inc., CryoLife (now Artivion), Cutera, Inc., DMC Global, Inc., Integer Holdings Corp, Lantheus Holdings, Inc., Meridian Bioscience, Inc., OraSure Technologies, Inc., Orthofix Medical, Inc., SeaSpine Holdings Corporation.

 

(4) Adjusted Operating Income is operating income as adjusted to disregard (i) non‑recurring restructuring charges related to plant closings and consolidations and (ii) the impact of acquired or disposed of operations.

 

 

Relationship between Compensation Actually Paid and Performance Measures Disclosed in the Pay Versus Performance Table

 

The graphs below compare (i) the relationship between PEO and average NEO compensation actually paid with our total shareholder return (“TSR”), (ii) the relationship between PEO and average NEO compensation actually paid and net income, (iii) the relationship between PEO and average NEO compensation actually paid and adjusted operating income, and (iv) the relationship between our TSR and our peer group TSR, in each case, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022, December 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020. TSR amounts reported in the graph assume an initial fixed investment of $100.

 

The following chart sets forth the relationship between compensation actually paid to our PEO, the average of compensation actually paid to our other NEOs, each as set forth in the Pay versus Performance table above, and our cumulative TSR. The chart represents the cumulative TSR of the Company of an initial investment of $100 for the measurement period beginning December 31, 2019, and ending December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020.
