Amounts reported in this column represent (i) the total compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year in the case of Messrs. Lawton and Sandfort and (ii) the average of the total compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year for our other Named Executive Officers reported for the applicable year other than the PEO for such years.
 
(3)
To calculate compensation actually paid (“CAP”), adjustments were made to the amounts reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year. A reconciliation of the adjustments for Messrs. Lawton and Sandfort and for the average of the other Named Executive Officers is set forth following the footnotes to this table. For purposes of valuing equity awards to calculate the CAP adjustments, equity awards were calculated based on their fair value as of the applicable date, calculated in accordance with the methodology used for financial reporting purposes. For awards subject to performance-based vesting conditions as of the end of the applicable fiscal year, the value is based on an estimate of the probable outcome of such performance-based vesting conditions as of the last day of the applicable fiscal year, which is consistent the same methodology used to determine the grant date fair value of the awards.

Pursuant to rules of the SEC, the comparison assumes $100 was invested on December 31, 2019 in our common stock. Historic stock price performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock price performance.

As noted in the CD&A, for 2023, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee determined that
earnings per diluted share
continues to be viewed as a core driver of the Company’s performance and stockholder value creation and, accordingly, was utilized as a performance metric for the PSUs granted in fiscal 2023.
