Pay Versus Performance

As required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act, we are providing the following information about the relationship between executive “compensation actually paid” (as computed in accordance with SEC rules) and certain financial performance measures. For further information concerning our pay-for-performance philosophy and how we align executive compensation with our performance, please see the section entitled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” beginning on page 43.

The following tables and related disclosures provide information about (i) the total compensation of our principal executive officer (“PEO”) and our non-PEO named executive officers (collectively, the “Other NEOs”) as presented in the “Fiscal 2021-2023 Summary Compensation Table” above or its equivalent table in prior years’ proxy statements; (ii) the “compensation actually paid” to our PEO and our Other NEOs, as calculated pursuant to Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act; (iii) certain financial performance measures; and (iv) the relationship between the “compensation actually paid” to those financial performance measures.

(2) The following table describes the adjustments, each of which is prescribed by the SEC rules, to calculate the “compensation actually paid” amounts from the Summary Compensation Table for each fiscal year. The Summary Compensation Table amounts and the “compensation actually paid” amounts do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to our executives during the applicable fiscal years, but rather are amounts determined in accordance with Item 402 of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act. As reflected in the table below, pursuant to the applicable rules, the amounts in the “Stock Awards” column in the applicable Summary Compensation Table are subtracted from the amounts in the “Total” column and the values reflected in the table below are added or subtracted, as applicable.

Financial Performance Measures

As described in greater detail under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” our executive compensation programs reflect a pay-for-performance philosophy. The metrics that we use for both our short- and long-term incentives are selected to incentivize our named executive officers to create value for our stockholders. The most important financial performance measures used to link executive compensation actually paid to our named executive officers to our company’s performance for the most recent fiscal year, are as follows:

● Revenue
● Non-GAAP EPS
● Non-GAAP Operating Income
    
Total Shareholder Return Amount $ 89 102 165
Peer Group Total Shareholder Return Amount 208 138 157
