Financial Performance Measures
We structure our executive compensation program to award compensation that depends on, and rewards executives on the basis of, individual and Company short- and long-term performance and thereby fosters a
pay-for-performance
culture. The Compensation Committee selects the metrics used for both our short-term and long-term incentive awards because it believes they effectively drive financial and operational performance and incentivize our executives to pursue actions that create sustainable shareholder value. The financial performance measures used by the Company for 2023 to link the compensation actually paid to the Company’s Named Executive Officers to Company performance are:
