(a)During 2025, Mattel granted 0.8 million shares as part of the 2025 LTIP. This amount was offset by a reduction of 0.3 million shares related to the 2022 LTIP based on the final earnout of the 2022 performance cycle, which are included in the weighted-average grant-date fair value. During 2024, Mattel granted 0.8 million shares as part of the Retention Performance Grant and 1.0 million shares as part of the 2024 LTIP, and issued less than 0.1 million incremental shares under the 2021 LTIP based on the final earnout of the 2021 performance cycle, which are included in the weighted-average grant-date fair value. During 2023, Mattel granted 1.2 million shares as part of the 2023 LTIP and issued 0.8 million incremental shares under the 2020 LTIP based on the final earnout of the 2020 performance cycle, which are included in the weighted-average grant-date fair value. (b)The number of shares granted for the Retention Performance Grant, the 2025 LTIP, the 2024 LTIP, and the 2023 LTIP, represents the aggregate target numbers of shares that may be issued pursuant to the award over its full term. The aggregate number of shares subject to performance awards that would be issued if performance goals are achieved at the maximum number of shares are approximately 2 million, 4 million, and 2 million for 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.
