Adjustment To PEO Compensation, Footnote The amounts shown for CAP have been calculated in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K and do not reflect compensation actually earned, realized, or received by the Company’s NEOs. These amounts reflect the “Summary Compensation Table” Total with exclusions and inclusions of certain amounts for the PEO and the Other NEOs as prescribed by SEC rules and as set forth below. Equity values are calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Amounts in the Exclusion of Stock Awards and Option Awards columns are the totals from the Stock Awards and Option Awards columns set forth in the “Summary Compensation Table.” Amounts in the Exclusion of Change in Pension Value column reflect the amounts attributable to the Change in Pension Value reported in the “Summary Compensation Table.” Amounts in the Inclusion of Pension Service Cost are based on the service cost for services rendered during the listed year.
(3) The Peer Group TSR set forth in this table utilizes the Company’s peer group, the S&P 1500 Chemicals Industry Index, which we also utilize in the stock performance graph required by Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K included in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2024. The comparison assumes $100 was invested for the period starting December 31, 2019, through the end of the listed year in the Company and in the S&P 1500 Chemicals Industry Index. Historical stock performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock performance.
(4) We determined Adjusted EBIT, a Non-GAAP measure, to be the most important financial performance measure used to link Company performance to Compensation Actually Paid to our PEO and Other NEOs in 2024. Adjusted EBIT is defined as set forth above under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis — Elements of Our Executive Compensation Program.” See Annex A of this proxy statement for a reconciliation of financial measures under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) to Adjusted EBIT, a description of excluded items, and related information.
The following table describes the adjustments, each of which is prescribed by SEC rule, to calculate the CAP amounts from the “Summary Compensation Table” amounts.
