Pay vs Performance Disclosure, Table | Pay Versus Performance Table Below is information regarding the relationship between executive compensation and our financial performance for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2020. In determining the “compensation actually paid” to our Named Executive Officers, SEC rules require us to make various adjustments to amounts reported in the Summary Compensation Table because the SEC’s valuation methods for this section differ from those required in the Summary Compensation Table. The table below summarizes compensation values reported in our Summary Compensation Table, as well as the adjusted values required in this section by SEC rules.
