​ |  | ​ | ​ |  | ​
​ | TOM CARLILE BOARD CHAIR | ​ | ​ | MACK HOGANS LEAD INDEPENDENT DIRECTOR | ​

As we look forward to our 2024 annual meeting of shareholders, it is worth reflecting on the year just completed.
​
Leadership Changes and Ongoing Board
and Committee Refreshment
​
In 2023, we executed on our succession plan and experienced several leadership changes, including the election of one new officer, the promotion of three officers to senior leadership positions, and in early 2024, the promotion of one officer as the new executive officer of our Wood Products segment. In addition to our senior leadership changes, Mack Hogans will retire from the Board immediately
before the 2024 annual meeting in accordance with our director retirement policy, and upon their reelection to the Board effective May 2, 2024, David Hannah will assume the Lead Independent Director position and Karen Gowland will become the chair of our Governance and Nominating Committee.
​
Board Oversight of Corporate Strategy
​
The Board’s role is critical in overseeing Boise Cascade’s corporate strategy and operations, and we continue to work closely with the management team on matters regarding the business and its performance. Throughout the year, the Board meeting agendas regularly included significant business and organizational initiatives, capital allocation strategies, and business development opportunities to increase our earnings and the stability of our earnings by growing our market position in EWP and expanding our distribution
capabilities, leveraging our integrated business model and superior access to the market for our Wood Products manufacturing segment through our Building Materials Distribution (BMD) distribution segment, driving operational excellence by improving veneer self-sufficiency, data-driven process improvement programs, and highly efficient logistics systems, and accelerating the pace of innovation, digital technology, and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).
​

TABLE OF CONTENTS
LETTER FROM OUR BOARD CHAIR AND LEAD INDEPENDENT DIRECTOR
Capital Allocation Strategy
​
In 2023, we invested approximately $162.8 million to acquire Brockway-Smith Company (BROSCO®), and its door and millwork distribution facilities in Hatfield, Massachusetts and Portland, Maine, and $215.4 million in capital spending on other projects, such as the addition of random stacking equipment at our Florien, Louisiana (plywood) and White City, Oregon (veneer) mills, the replacement of components of one of the two lathes and the green end power distribution center equipment at our Oakdale, Louisiana mill, upgrades to the I-joist line at our Alexandria, Louisiana mill, development of a new distribution facility in Marion, Ohio, establishment of two door and millwork start-up facilities in Kansas City, Missouri and Denver, Colorado, and purchase of properties to relocate Pompano, Florida and Lathrop, California distribution facilities to West Palm Beach, Florida and Modesto, California, respectively. We continued the integration of the Havana, Florida and Chapman, Alabama mills we acquired in 2022 to further solidify our engineered wood products (EWP) market position, and in 2024, will continue that pursuit, in part, with capital equipment investments with the upgrade and redesign of the log utilization center, a new veneer dryer and press, and modification of an existing dryer at our Oakdale, Louisiana mill, addition of I-joist production
capabilities at our Thorsby, Alabama (EWP) mill, and the conversion of a plywood layup line to a parallel laminated veneer line at our Chapman, Alabama (plywood) mill.
We returned $352.9 million of cash to our shareholders, by increasing our quarterly dividend 33% to $0.20 per share in September, paying two special dividends totaling $8.00 per share, and repurchasing 75,678 shares of our common stock. We believe that the continued execution of our long-term growth plan and thoughtful stewardship of your capital will help ensure that you receive the benefits of our strategy and investments in the years to come.
Whether or not you plan to attend the annual meeting, your vote is important, and we encourage you to vote your shares promptly. You may vote your shares using a toll-free telephone number or the Internet. If you received a paper copy of the proxy card by mail, you may sign, date, and mail the proxy card in the envelope provided.

2023 Business Highlights
​
In 2023, we navigated capital equipment supply chain constraints, labor challenges, and weather events, by fully leveraging our values and the resilience of our employees. Despite those challenges, we successfully executed our strategy and were able to:

​
Continue growth and expansion of our BMD door and millwork capabilities

​
Continue innovation through digital technology using our human capital management (HCM) system for core human resource functions, expanding our learning management system, and enhancing compensation processes
​
In our Wood Products segment, we:
●
Added, replaced, or upgraded EWP manufacturing equipment at our Florien, Oakdale, and Alexandria, Louisiana, and White City, Oregon, mills.
​
●
Further, we continued the integration of the Havana, Florida and Chapman, Alabama mills to further solidify our EWP market position, and in 2024, will continue that pursuit, in part, with additional capital investments at our Oakdale, Louisiana, Thorsby (EWP) and Chapman, Alabama mills.
​
In our BMD segment, we:
●
Acquired Brockway-Smith Company (BROSCO®), and its door and millwork distribution facilities in Hatfield, Massachusetts and Portland, Maine,
​
●
Developed a new distribution facility in Marion, Ohio,
​
●
Established two new door and millwork start-up facilities in Kansas City, Missouri and Denver, Colorado, and
​
●
Purchased properties to relocate Pompano, Florida and Lathrop, California distribution facilities to West Palm Beach, Florida and Modesto, California, respectively.

Ready to Respond to Market Changes and Well-Positioned for Continued Growth
​
Within new residential construction, the recent reduction in mortgage rates and potential for future rate reductions has created optimism that single-family starts will reflect year-over-year growth in 2024; however, multi-family starts may pull back from recent record highs and repair-and-remodel is anticipated to remain robust compared to history though is projected for mid-single digit percentage declines. As market conditions dictate, we will adjust our business where needed and continue to seek ways to control expenses and variable costs without sacrificing the high service levels expected by our supplier and customer partners. In addition, given our favorable long-term outlook for the demand fundamentals that drive our business, we will continue to make investments to grow our Company and enhance the workplace experience to retain and attract talented employees. In 2024, we plan to continue executing our strategy and creating attractive returns on capital by:
●
Expanding and upgrading our EWP manufacturing capabilities
​
●
Pursuing organic growth opportunities and in-fill opportunities in strategic locations across the country for our distribution business
​
●
Continuing our growth in millwork and door assembly capabilities
​
●
Continuing to improve our competitiveness through operational excellence
​
●
Using our Boise Improvement Cycle (BIC) process and business optimization group to continue to (i) increase productivity, (ii) increase equipment efficiency, and (iii) lower our costs of manufacturing

Executive Compensation Highlights
We provide highlights of our executive compensation program below. It is important to review the Compensation Discussion & Analysis (CD&A) and compensation tables in this proxy statement for a complete understanding of our compensation program and philosophy (page 36).
We generally target compensation at the 50th percentile of comparable market compensation data, with actual compensation amounts taking into account each person’s role, performance, contributions to the Company’s success, level of experience, and other distinguishing characteristics.
​
We provide at-risk performance-based pay opportunities in the form of short-term and long-term incentives.
​
Our chief executive officer’s total compensation is 52% at-risk, while our other named executive officers’ (NEO) total compensation is an average 47% at-risk.
​
Short-term and long-term incentives comprise a significant portion of each NEO’s total compensation opportunity and are designed to motivate and reward our NEOs for growing the Company and maximizing long-term shareholder value.
​
Long-term performance is the most important measure of our success because we manage our operations and business affairs for the long-term benefit of our shareholders.
​
For 2023, our NEOs received long-term equity incentive compensation opportunities in a combination of Performance Stock Units (PSUs) and Restricted Stock Units (RSUs).
​
We have separate clawback policies that provide for the recovery of short-term and long-term incentive-based compensation from officers. Our clawback policies permits us to claw back incentive-based compensation (i) if, as a result of a financial restatement, the award would have been lower had the financial results been properly calculated when originally reported, (ii) if an award was predicated on achieving financial results that were subsequently determined to be due to a fraudulent act by the officer or (iii) if an officer engaged in misconduct, including misconduct that results in reputational or financial harm to the Company, even if such misconduct does not result in a financial restatement.
​
Our clawback policy adopted in 2023 pursuant to Rule 10D-1 of the Exchange Act requires us to claw back incentive compensation received on or after October 2, 2023 that was calculated based on financial results that were subsquently restated and the award received would have been lower if based on the restated results.
Our annual incentive compensation opportunities are tied to the achievement of corporate goals and, in some cases, business segment financial goals.
​
Our Insider Trading Policy prohibits all of our Directors, officers, employees, and consultants from participating in any hedging, pledging, or monetizing transaction to lock in the value of any of our securities they hold, including the purchase of any financial instrument designed to offset the risk of future declines in the market value of any of our securities.
​
​
Say on Pay
​
Over the past five years, our shareholders have shown strong support for our executive compensation program with annual vote results of over an average of 97% from 2019 to 2023. Our compensation committee continues to examine our executive compensation program to ensure alignment between our executives and the long-term interests of our shareholders.
We ask that our shareholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our NEOs as further described in Proposal No. 2 (page 35).
​
2023 Key Compensation Actions and Decisions
​
2023 PSUs under our long-term equity-based incentive plan (LTIP) under our 2016 Boise Cascade Omnibus Incentive Plan (2016 Incentive Plan)
were earned above target based on solid execution of our business strategy and strong market conditions yielding 200% of target payout based

on ROIC(1) measures.(2) These awards were granted in March 2023, performance against target ROIC was determined in February 2024, and the earned shares will be distributed in March 2026, three years
from the grant date. The Company believes the long-term holding period for these shares aligns management with long-term shareholder value.
​
​
(1)
ROIC is defined as Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT) divided by average invested capital (based on a rolling thirteen-month average). We define NOPAT as net income plus after-tax finance expense. Invested capital is defined as total assets plus capitalized lease expense, less current liabilities, excluding short-term debt. In 2023, the compensation committee changed the definition of ROIC to exclude cash and cash equivalents from average invested capital.

​ | CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD MATTERS | ​

​ |  | ​ | ​ |  | ​ | ​ | Our Board recommends shareholders vote FOR all of our Directors. | ​

All Directors are nominated for election at our 2024 annual meeting for a one-year term.
Shares will be voted according to shareholder instructions. If no voting instructions are provided, a broker may not vote on the matter. For 2024, our Directors are running unopposed. Therefore, to be elected to our Board in 2024, each Director must receive an affirmative vote of the majority of the votes of the shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting of the shareholders and entitled to vote.
The Directors have confirmed their availability for election. If any of the Directors becomes unavailable
to serve as a Director for any reason prior to the annual meeting, our Board may substitute another person as a Director. In that case, if a shareholder has voted for the original Director, those shares will be voted FOR the substitute Director.
Additional information follows for the Directors, particularly concerning their business experience and qualifications, as well as attributes and skills that led our Board to conclude that they should serve as a Director.
​
Director Skills Matrix
​
Provided below in a Board Skills Matrix is a summary of each Director’s skills and experience as well as gender and racial/ethnic diversity information. The skills categories included in the matrix are tied to the Company’s strategic goals, and the intent of the matrix is that the Directors collectively possess qualities that facilitate effective oversight of the Company’s strategic plans. While the matrix is useful for determining the collective skills of the Board as a whole, it is not a comparative measure of the value of Directors; a Director with more focused experience could nonetheless contribute broadly and effectively.
The chart below identifies the principal skills and any gender and racial/ethnic diversity characteristics that the corporate governance and nominating committee considered for each Director when evaluating the Director’s experience and qualifications to serve as a Director. Each mark indicates a strength or diversity characteristic that was self-selected by each Director. Additional information about the Director’s background and business experience is provided below in the biographical information.

Director Independence
​
Our Directors believe board independence is important and is key for the Board to function properly, allowing it to provide appropriate oversight and maintain managerial accountability.
We list our common stock on the NYSE. The NYSE rules require that a majority of our Directors be independent from management and that all members of our Board committees be independent. For a Director to be independent under the NYSE’s rules, our Board must determine affirmatively that he or she has no material relationship with the Company. Additionally, he or she cannot violate any of the bright line independence tests set forth in the NYSE listing rules that would prevent our Board from determining that he or she is independent. These rules contain heightened independence tests for members of our audit and compensation committees. Our Board will broadly
consider all relevant facts and circumstances to determine the independence of any Director in accordance with the NYSE listing rules.
Our Board has determined that all Directors except Mr. Jorgensen are independent directors as defined under the NYSE’s listing rules. These Directors constitute a majority of our Directors and represent all of our committee members.
Additionally, our Board has determined that (i) each member of the audit committee meets the heightened independence standards for audit committee service under the NYSE listing rules and Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act; and (ii) each member of the compensation committee meets the heightened independence standards for compensation committee service under the NYSE listing rules and Rule 10C-1 under the Exchange Act. Further, because Mr. Carlile is a past chief executive officer of the Company, our Board appointed Mr. Hannah as its lead independent director upon his reelection to the Board.
Our Board and its committees can retain, at their sole discretion and at our expense, independent financial, legal, compensation, or other advisors to represent the independent interests of our Board or its committees.
​
Related-Person Transactions
​
Family Relationships
No family relationships exist between any of our Directors and executive officers.
Affiliated-Company Transactions
There were no affiliated-company or related person transactions in 2023.
Policies and Procedures for Related-Person Transactions
Our written policy regarding transactions with related persons requires that a “related person” ​(as defined in paragraph (a) of Item 404 of Regulation S-K) must promptly disclose to our general counsel any “related-person transaction” (defined as any transaction that is reportable by us
under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K in which we are or will be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and in which any related person has or will have a direct or indirect material interest) and all material facts with respect thereto. The general counsel will promptly communicate such information to our audit committee or another independent body of our Board. No related-person transaction will be entered into without the approval or ratification of our audit committee or another independent body of our Board. It is our policy that Directors recuse themselves from any discussion or decision affecting their personal, business, or professional interests. Our policy does not specify the standards to be applied by our audit committee or another independent body of our Board in determining whether to approve or ratify a related-person transaction.

Role of Compensation Consultant
​
The compensation committee continued to retain Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc. (FW Cook) as its independent compensation consultant to assist the committee in discharging its responsibilities. In connection with retaining FW Cook, the compensation committee considered that FW Cook
does not provide any other services to the Company or management and determined that there was no conflict of interest according to the factors the compensation committee determined to be relevant, including the independence factors enumerated by the NYSE.
​
Role of Board in Our Risk Management Processes
​
Our Board oversees the risk management activities designed and implemented by our management. The Board executes its oversight responsibility for risk management both directly and through its committees. Through our annual enterprise risk management review, the Board also considers specific risk topics, including risks associated with our strategic plan, business operations, cybersecurity, environmental, social and governance (ESG) matters, HCM (including recruitment, retention of talent, and culture), recoupment of officer compensation based on our clawback policies, and capital structure. In addition, the Board receives regular detailed reports from our senior management and other personnel, including assessments and potential mitigation of the risks and exposures involved with their respective areas of responsibility.
Our Board delegates to the audit committee oversight of our risk management process. Our other committees also consider and address risks related to their respective committee responsibilities. All committees report to the Board as appropriate, including when a matter rises to a material or enterprise-level risk.
Our internal audit department annually develops a risk-based audit plan that is reviewed with the audit committee, along with the results of internal audit reviews and activities. The internal audit department also maintains a high-level assessment of risks and controls for key operations, functions, processes, applications, and systems within the Company. The audit committee meets quarterly with our chief financial officer, senior finance director, and our directors of internal audit and financial reporting. The audit committee also meets quarterly with our director of information technology (IT) and our senior director of privacy to discuss security and privacy as it relates to our data systems and data privacy. We have in place a number of independent
assurance activities responsible for assessing whether our risk response activities are in place and working effectively, including, but not limited to, data security, data privacy, environmental, and safety audits.
Information Security
The Board and the audit committee engage with management on a quarterly basis regarding our IT environment, including data security and data privacy, and our Wood Products segment’s industrial control systems (ICS) of its manufacturing equipment. The Company’s IT security and data privacy processes are based upon the Control Objectives for Information and Related Technology (COBIT) framework. Our IT, data privacy, and internal audit teams have individuals who have achieved Certified Governance of Enterprise IT (CGEIT), Certified Data Privacy Solutions Engineer (CDPSE), Certified Information Privacy Manager (CIPM), and Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) professional certifications. Continual focus on data breach response readiness by implementing activities such as tabletop exercises is a key initiative for the IT security and data privacy teams. KPMG annually audits our IT general controls to assess our internal control environment and the reliability of information flowing into our financial reporting. In addition, we engage a qualified third party to perform an annual penetration test as part of our ongoing assessment of our IT perimeter security and intrusion detection capabilities. The penetration test organization employs experts with the Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), Certified Information Security Manager (CISM), and GIAC certified penetration tester (GPEN) professional designations. For more information concerning our information security, please refer to Item 1C. Cybersecurity of the Company’s Form 10-K filed on February 20, 2024.

Risk Analysis of Employee Compensation Policies and Practices
​
The compensation committee, with recommendations from management, reviewed our compensation philosophy for our employees and determined that it does not induce our employees to take unacceptable levels of business risk for the purpose of increasing their incentive plan awards at the expense of shareholder interests. Some of the considerations in making this determination were:
None of our businesses presents a high-risk profile because our businesses compete in markets with a high degree of transparency on pricing and costs, as well as clearly defined revenue recognition accounting principles
​
Our incentive pay structure rewards performance in both the short-term and long-term (i.e., short-term incentives are not paid at the expense of long-term shareholder value)
​
Our incentive pay program has minimum and maximum targets designed to take into account short-term and long-term affordability measures, with payments capped at the maximum target
​
The compensation committee reserves the right to reduce or eliminate any awards, at its discretion, with respect to our incentive pay programs
​
For LTIP and cash-based short-term incentive plan (STIP) awards received by an NEO, our clawback policy allows us to claw back any or all the LTIP or STIP awards received by an officer where the amount of the award was calculated based upon financial results that were subsequently affected by a restatement of the Company’s financial statements and the award
​
received would have been lower had the financial results been properly calculated when reported, and/or where an award was predicted upon achieving financial results that were subsequently determined to be due to a fraudulent act by the officer. In 2023, we also adopted a clawback policy that permits the recovery of incentive compensation during a three-year recovery period if an individual covered by the policy engaged in misconduct, even if such misconduct does not result in a financial restatement
Effective October 2, 2023, we adopted a clawback policy for our LTIP and our STIP pursuant to Rule 10D-1 of the Exchange Act that requires clawback of any or all awards received by an NEO where the amount of award was calculated based upon the financial results that were subsequently affected by a restatement of the Company’s financial statements and the award received would have been lower had the financial results been properly calculated when reported
​
Our executive compensation program does not encourage our management to take unreasonable risks relating to the business
​
Pursuant to the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, we prohibit all of our Directors, officers, employees, and consultants from participating in any hedging, pledging, or monetizing transactions to lock in the value of any of our securities that they hold, including the purchase of any financial instrument designed to offset the risk of future declines in the market value of any of our securities
​
​
Director Selection Process
​
Our corporate governance and nominating committee is responsible for, among other matters:
●
Identifying individuals qualified to become Directors, consistent with criteria approved by our Board
​
●
Recommending to our Board a slate of Directors for election at the annual meeting of shareholders
​
●
Recommending to our Board persons to fill Board and committee vacancies
​
Through this process, members of the corporate governance and nominating committee consult with our Board chair and lead independent director
and accept nominee recommendations from other Directors and/or shareholders in accordance with the terms of our Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws. The invitation to join our Board is extended by our Board through our Board chair and lead independent director.
Suitability of Candidates
In evaluating the suitability of candidates, in addition to our ongoing and emerging business needs, our Board and corporate governance and nominating committee consider many factors, including a candidate’s:

●
Experience as a senior officer in a public company, substantial private company experience, or other comparable experience
​
●
Experience as a director of a public company
​
●
Breadth of knowledge about issues affecting the Company and/or its industry
​
●
Expertise in finance, logistics, manufacturing, law, human resources, cybersecurity, technology and innovation, marketing or other areas that our Board determines are important areas of needed expertise
​
●
Personal attributes that include integrity and sound ethical character, absence of legal or regulatory impediments, absence of conflicts of interest, demonstrated track record of achievement, ability to act in an oversight capacity, appreciation for the issues confronting a public company, adequate time to devote to our Board and its committees, and willingness to assume board fiduciary responsibilities on behalf of all shareholders
​
The corporate governance and nominating committee is committed to a highly functioning Board where the composition is reflective of the long-term strategy of the business, and makes decisions primarily on the basis of skills, qualifications, and experience. Input from the Board, management, feedback from shareholders, and Board evaluation processes also help determine desired backgrounds and skills.
Consideration of Diversity in Nomination Process
As of the 2024 annual meeting, upon the reelection of all Director nominees to the Board, our Board
will consist of eight men and three women with a rich mixture of educational, professional, and experiential diversity representing a wide range of perspectives to further enhance the effectiveness of its oversight role. As opportunities to appoint and nominate new directors become available, as the Board builds the slate of Director nominees, in addition to the factors set forth above, our Board recognizes the value of gender, racial, and ethnic diversity for Director recruitment to continue enriching our Board’s diverse perspectives to support the current and long-term needs of the Company.
Information regarding the skills and diversity of our Directors can be found in the Director Skills Matrix on page 11.
Shareholder Nominations for Directors
In accordance with our bylaws, the corporate governance and nominating committee will consider shareholder nominations for Directors (please refer to the Shareholder Proposals for Inclusion in Next Year’s Proxy Statement section in this proxy statement for related instructions, page 68). We did not receive any shareholder nominations or recommendations for a Director in connection with the 2024 annual meeting. Other than the procedures set forth in our bylaws, the corporate governance and nominating committee has not adopted formal policies regarding shareholder nominations for directors because the committee does not believe such policy is necessary for the consideration of shareholder nominations.

In December of each year, under the direction of the corporate governance and nominating committee, our Directors complete written surveys to evaluate and assess the overall effectiveness of our Board, its committees, and each Director. The purpose of the Board, committee(s), and individual Director surveys is to continually improve Board performance. Our lead independent director and our Board chair review the Directors’ responses and provide the individual Directors, the corporate governance and nominating committee, and the Board with an assessment of the performance of the
Board and its committees. The Directors then discuss the results and proposed actions for improvement or change in an executive session chaired by our lead independent director. The lead independent director and Board chair also have one-on-one discussions as necessary with each Director about the feedback received. Through this process, the Board and management work together to refine the meeting materials and topics covered with the Board to educate new members and highlight certain strategic projects.
​
Director Time Commitment Policy
​
The Board believes that wider perspectives and best practices learned by Directors serving in other public directorships must be balanced against the time commitment that service on boards entails. Therefore, our Guidelines include a policy whereby our non-employee Directors are limited to no more than three public boards, (in addition to the Board),
and our chief executive officer to one additional public board. You may view a copy of our Guidelines by visiting our website at www.bc.com/investors, selecting the Corporate Governance tab, and then clicking on the Corporate Governance Guidelines link under Governance Documents to see our Guidelines.

approximately 39.01% of our outstanding shares, which provided them opportunities to discuss various issues, including macro effects on our business, fundamental demand and supply chain, corporate governance, executive compensation, risk oversight, ESG, DEI, human capital, responsible forestry and environmental sustainability practices, and forest certification. Shareholder feedback is regularly reviewed and considered by the Board and is reflected in adjustments and enhancements to our policies and practices, including providing more sustainability disclosures on our website that are aligned with the guidelines of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB).

ESG Governance, Environmental Sustainability, and Human Capital Management
​

​ |  | ​ | ​ | ESG Governance | ​

The corporate governance and nominating committee is primarily responsible for ESG matters, but similar to risk oversight, the Board participates in the process and oversight of ESG strategy. At each meeting, management updates the corporate governance and nominating committee, and the Directors provide guidance on current ESG topics, including climate, HCM, DEI, and other similar issues that impact the Company. On an annual basis, the corporate governance and nominating committee is provided with a more in-depth review of ESG topics by either management or a third-party consultant.
Our Board supports an approach to sustainability and ESG matters that is embedded in our Company purpose to bring people, products, and services together to build strong homes, businesses, and communities that stand the test of time. We are a business built on relationships. Our core values guide our actions, unite our employees, and define our brand. We care about relationships with our employees, customers, suppliers, shareholders, and the communities where we live and operate. We strive to create a diverse and inclusive workplace environment as a way of living our core values of Respect and Pursuit of Excellence where we embrace the power of our differences. We are committed to fostering an inclusive culture that celebrates diversity and creates connection where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued. We further believe it is our responsibility as an employer and community leader to have a positive influence in the communities where we live and operate.

​ |  | ​ | ​ | Environmental Sustainability | ​

Boise Cascade considers environmental responsibility an integral component of our Wood Products and BMD segments. We transform renewable resources, trees, into products that people depend on every day. Our raw materials store carbon for years, giving us the opportunity to respond to the effects of climate change through our environmental stewardship practices when procuring wood. Through sustainable forestry practices, we actively contribute to the responsible use and protection of the natural environment, which benefits our employees, customers, shareholders, and the communities where we live and operate. We are committed to implementing and achieving sustainable forestry practices where we procure raw materials from forest landowners, wood suppliers, and manufacturers that help protect and conserve forest habitat and biodiversity. We have rigorous procurement programs to comply with state and provincial laws to protect conservation values and culturally important sites and which include measures to protect water quality and conserve wildlife habitat. Further, we are committed to continually achieving compliance with certification standards, employing management practices within our operations to comply with environmental laws and regulations, and promoting sustainable practices.
We recognize the scientific evidence indicating a changing climate associated with increasing CO2 in the atmosphere, and use the recommendations of TCFD for guidance in tracking and communicating our position and performance on climate-related matters. The Company is fortunate to have plentiful access to bark from trees and manufacturing residuals to be used for a significant portion of energy needs in our manufacturing operations. This allows utilization of carbon-neutral energy sources and reduces reliance on energy sources derived from fossil fuels. Using biomass to produce energy also reduces landfill waste, which results in less greenhouse gas (GHG) and methane emissions. To further enhance our ability to track and report on climate-related issues, the Company began implementation of a comprehensive program to collect material Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions data. This is an important step in understanding the emissions impact of the Company’s operations and allows future enhancement of reporting climate metrics in the TCFD framework. Additionally, the

Company participates in the American Wood Council’s efforts to develop lifecycle assessments (LCA) and Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) for wood products and works with third parties to develop company-specific LCAs and EPDs for wood products manufactured by the Company. These are valuable tools for understanding and communicating the environmental footprint of wood products from raw material procurement to end-of-life.

​ |  | ​ | ​ | Human Capital Management | ​

The safety of our employees is a core value, and the Company maintains robust safety programs focused on identifying hazards and eliminating risks, as well as safety processes and procedures aimed at eliminating injuries in the workplace. The Company has responded to changes in the work environment by creating a flexible work policy as we recognize the demands of balancing work, family, and personal obligations and we believe we are better when we work together to serve our customers, find creative solutions, and enrich our culture. Although the nature of most of our jobs in our Wood Products and BMD segments cannot be accomplished remotely or accommodate multiple flexible schedules, we are open to listening, learning, and providing flexible work arrangements where practical and productive.
Our Total Rewards program provides competitive pay, comprehensive health benefits, robust financial security resources, well-being programs, community engagement and opportunities, and career recognition and development. Selecting and developing talent is a vital aspect of our human capital strategy because we believe our employees are at the heart of our purpose and fulfillment of our promise to our shareholders. We focus on developing talent from within our business segments and supplement that talent with finding the right external hires to support key strategic objectives. We work towards business continuity and personal growth by developing our employees as individuals through targeted leadership programs. Individual development includes annual performance reviews with development plans, access to a variety of resources, including self-help resources, and continuing education opportunities. During 2023, our employees were able to participate in leadership training through a combination of online platforms and in-person learning. Further, employees contribute service hours to boards and nonprofit organizations in the communities where they live and work. These programs enable the Company’s employees to
connect with the community, further improve the Company’s reputation locally, and instill a sense of pride in the workforce.
Boise Cascade is pursuing excellence by embracing our differences. The Company is committed to fostering an inclusive culture that celebrates diversity and creates connection where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued. Consistent with our core values, we are invested in our work to welcome diversity, build community, and grow our people and our business. This work is led by the Company’s director of DEI and starts at the top with our Board and our executive leadership team. In 2023, we launched six business inclusion groups to drive our strategy forward. All employees are invited to join any of our business inclusion groups which are helping to build communities of belonging while driving business impact. Our employees are also invited to participate in monthly DEI webinars and complete DEI learning curricula to be part of our journey and drive meaningful outcomes.
To modernize our human resources technology system and provide a simple, integrated experience for our employees, we launched our new HCM system in 2022. Since then, we launched numerous modules within the integrated platform, including our learning management system, with plans to deploy additional modules in 2024 that will enhance our performance management, self-service, and document management processes. We are working to enhance the Company’s ability to report on human capital metrics, enhance system security and data privacy measures, and focus on the employee experience across the organization.

Currently, the positions of Board chair and chief executive officer are filled separately. Our Board believes that this structure is appropriate for the Company at this time. Our current Board chair’s experience as our former chief executive officer provides our Board with valuable insight on operational and industry issues.
Our corporate governance and nominating committee and our Board have adopted the Guidelines to serve as a flexible framework within which the Board conducts business. The corporate governance and nominating committee and Board routinely review the Guidelines, with the most recent review occurring in February 2024. Because the Board chair is a former chief executive officer of the Company, upon his reelection to the Board, Mr. Hannah will fill the lead independent director role. Our lead independent director presides over all meetings of the independent Directors and works collaboratively with our Board chair and chief executive officer regarding Board governance, including the Board evaluation process and establishing meeting agendas for our Board. As of Mr. Hogans’ retirement on May 2, 2024, the lead independent director will not chair the corporate governance and nominating committee as the Board desires to provide development in committee leadership positions for succession planning purposes. The lead independent director’s responsibilities include:
●
Generally chairs the corporate governance and nominating committee
​
●
Leading the Board’s processes for selecting and evaluating new Directors and key management positions
​
●
Presiding at all meetings of the Board at which the Board chair is not present
​
●
Serving as a liaison between the Board chair and the independent Directors
​
●
If requested by major shareholders, ensuring that he or she is available for consultation and direct communication
​
●
Approving Board and committee meeting agendas and schedules
​
●
Conducting executive sessions of the independent Directors
​
●
Overseeing the independent Directors’ annual performance evaluation of the Board chair and chief executive officer
​
●
Together with the Board chair, Directors, and the corporate governance and nominating committee, leading the Director recruitment process
​
●
Calling and chairing meetings of the independent Directors and meetings to retain advisors for the independent Directors
​
​
Executive Sessions and Independent Director Sessions
​
Our Board and our committees routinely meet in executive sessions outside the presence of management. The Board chair presides over the executive sessions of our Board meetings, and each committee chair presides over the executive sessions of each respective committee. Our lead independent director presides over the sessions of
our independent Directors, who meet outside the presence of our non-independent Directors at least twice per year.
Independent Directors have direct access to members of management whenever they deem it

necessary, and the Company’s executive officers attend at least a portion of each regularly scheduled Board meeting. The independent Directors and all
committees are also free to retain their own independent advisors, at the Company’s expense, whenever they feel it would be desirable.
​
2023 Meeting Attendance
​
During 2023, our Board met 11 times in person or by video conference. In addition to meetings of the Board, our committees met a total of 13 times. All Directors attended at least 75% of all meetings of the Board and each committee on which he or she served.

Board Committees
​
Our Board has established the following three standing committees:
The composition, duties, and responsibilities of these committees are outlined in written charters adopted by our Board. Each committee charter is reviewed annually by its respective committee to ensure ongoing compliance with applicable laws and sound governance practices and reviewed periodically by outside legal counsel. Each committee enacts any recommended changes to its charter from such reviews and reports the changes to our Board.
You may view copies of our committee charters by visiting our website at www.bc.com/investors and selecting the Corporate Governance tab. You are then able to select any of the committee charters.

Upon the recommendation of the compensation committee, our Board approved the granting of 1,947 RSUs with a grant date of March 1, 2023, with a grant date fair value equal to $134,986 to each of our non-employee Directors. The Board chair
received an additional 361 RSUs with a grant date fair value equal to $25,028. These 2023 RSU awards are service-conditioned awards that vested in full and were distributed on March 1, 2024.
​
Directors Deferred Compensation Plan
​
We maintain a nonqualified deferred compensation plan offered to our non-employee Directors (Boise Cascade Directors Deferred Compensation Plan). The plan is an unfunded plan intended to help participants supplement their retirement income while providing them an opportunity to invest a portion of cash compensation. Under the plan, each Director who receives cash compensation for Board service may elect to defer all or a portion of cash compensation in a calendar year. Amounts deferred are credited with imputed interest at a rate
equal to 130% of Moody’s Composite Average of Yields on Corporate Bonds. Participants elect the form and timing of distributions of their deferred compensation balances. Participants may receive a cash payment in a lump sum or in annual installments following their service on our Board. Ms. Gowland and Mr. Matula elected to defer cash compensation in 2023 under this plan. We do not anticipate making any changes to this plan in 2024.
​
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
​
During 2023, the compensation committee consisted of Mses. Gowland and Taylor and Messrs. Hannah, Matula, and McGowan. None of our executive officers currently serves, or in the past
year served, as a member of the Board or compensation committee of any entity with one or more executive officers serving on our Board or compensation committee.

​ | EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION | ​

​ |  | ​ | ​ |  | ​ | ​ | Our Board recommends shareholders vote, on an advisory basis, FOR the approval of the resolution set forth below approving the compensation of our named executive officers. | ​

Pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are providing our shareholders with the opportunity to cast an advisory vote regarding the compensation of our NEOs. Our compensation philosophy is designed to emphasize a focus on total compensation, with a large portion of our NEOs’ pay being performance-based and considered variable, “at risk,” and aligned with shareholder interests. We seek to pay for performance so that we can recruit and retain the talented employees necessary to drive superior financial and operational results. We view our compensation program as a strategic tool that supports the successful execution of our business strategy and reinforces a performance-based culture. Our Board has agreed to hold this advisory vote on an annual basis, with the next vote following this one expected to occur at the 2025 annual meeting of shareholders.
Shareholders are urged to read the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section in this proxy statement, which discusses how our compensation policies and procedures implement our compensation philosophy. The compensation committee and our Board believe these policies and procedures are effective in implementing our
compensation philosophy and in achieving its goals. Our Board has determined the best way to allow shareholders to vote on our executive compensation is through the following resolution:
RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables, and narrative discussion in this proxy statement, is hereby APPROVED.
Shares will be voted according to shareholder instructions. If no voting instructions are provided, a broker may not vote on the matter. This proposal requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes of the shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting of the shareholders and entitled to vote.
Your vote is important to us. Although this advisory vote is nonbinding, the compensation committee and our Board will review the results of the vote. The compensation committee will consider our shareholders’ views and take them into account in making future determinations concerning our executive compensation.

Our Named Executive Officers
​
This CD&A describes the 2023 compensation program for our executive officers, particularly our NEOs who are listed below. Positions below are those held with the Company as of December 31, 2023:

​ | Nate Jorgensen Chief Executive Officer | ​ | ​ | Kelly Hibbs Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, and Treasurer​ | ​ | ​ | Mike Brown Executive Vice President, Wood Products | ​ | ​ | Jeff Strom Executive Vice President, Building Materials Distribution​ | ​ | ​ | Jill Twedt Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary | ​

Our Compensation Objectives and Philosophy
​

1 | ​ | ​ | 2 | ​ | ​ | 3 | ​
We want to attract, retain, and incentivize the management talent we believe is essential to achieving the Company’s strategic objectives, which are to grow the Company prudently and to increase long-term shareholder value. | ​ | ​ | As a guiding philosophy, we generally target all forms of compensation at the 50th percentile of comparable market compensation data, with appropriate adjustments that take into account each officer’s position, responsibilities, performance, contributions to the Company’s success, level of experience, and other distinguishing characteristics. In some instances, and for the purpose of internal equity, we may establish similar compensation ranges for officer positions with similar scopes of responsibility and other similar characteristics even if such ranges differ from comparable positions at other companies. | ​ | ​ | We also provide at-risk, performance-based pay opportunities that comprise a significant portion of total compensation opportunity to motivate and reward our executive officers for achieving the Company’s strategic objectives. | ​

We hold annual advisory shareholder votes on executive compensation. Our shareholders have approved our executive compensation with over an average of 97% voting in favor from 2019 through 2023. We believe the strong support demonstrates that shareholders generally view our overall pay program favorably. The compensation committee took this support into account, and as such, no
substantial program changes were made for 2023. The compensation committee and the Board intend to continue to take these advisory votes into account regarding future compensation decisions. For 2024, shareholders will again vote, on an advisory basis, on whether to approve our executive compensation as set forth in this proxy statement.
​
Use of Market Data to Determine Amount and Allocation of Compensation
​
The compensation committee believes that an important criterion for determining the aggregate value of the Company’s compensation program and the allocation of the value among the various elements of its compensation plans is market data, where available, on the amounts, allocations, and structures utilized by similarly situated peer companies for positions of comparable responsibility.
Management and the compensation committee have utilized compensation and benefits surveys to ascertain market levels of aggregate compensation and the allocation of that compensation among specific compensation elements for its NEOs. Aggregate compensation and compensation for each of the major elements (base salary, target short-term incentive compensation, and target long-term incentive compensation) for the

Company’s NEOs has generally been targeted at the 50th percentile of the surveyed peer group companies. However, the specific aggregate compensation (and the allocation among the elements of the total compensation) paid to any of our NEOs may be below or above the 50th percentile target levels, depending on subjective judgments made by the compensation committee based on factors such as the specific officer’s responsibilities that vary from the comparable position, historical performance in the job, tenure with the Company in the position, and other distinguishing characteristics.
Since 2011, the compensation committee has periodically retained the services of FW Cook, a compensation consultant, to prepare a comprehensive analysis of the compensation packages for our NEOs and to compare the specific
elements of compensation and the aggregate value with a group of peer companies recommended by FW Cook.
Our 2023 peer group was the same as below except that Cornerstone Building Products, Inc. was included for 2023 and GMS Inc. was excluded. FW Cook conducted a biannual full review of our peer companies with our compensation committee in 2023 for setting the 2024 peer group. FW Cook noted that Cornerstone Building Brands, Inc. was acquired and is no longer a publicly traded company and recommended that it be removed from the peer group list. As a replacement, FW Cook recommended adding GMS Inc. to the peer group for 2024. The compensation committee agreed with the recommendation and adopted the following 2024 peer group:
​

​ | ● American Woodmark Corporation | ​ | ​ | ● Gibraltar Industries Corporation | ​
​ | ● Armstrong World Industries | ​ | ​ | ● GMS Inc. | ​
​ | ● Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. | ​ | ​ | ● Louisiana Pacific Corporation | ​
​ | ● BlueLinx Corporation | ​ | ​ | ● Masonite International Corporation | ​
​ | ● Builders FirstSource, Inc. | ​ | ​ | ● Quanex Building Products Corporation | ​
​ | ● Eagle Materials Inc. | ​ | ​ | ● Simpson Manufacturing Company, Inc. | ​
​ | ● JELD-WEN Holding, Inc. | ​ | ​ | ● UFP Industries, Inc. | ​

During 2023, the compensation committee reviewed the officer base salaries, Director compensation, the STIP, the LTIP, FW Cook’s fees, and the proposed peer group for 2023 compensation discussions. The compensation
committee approved the proposed peer group for 2023 compensation discussions. The compensation committee also reviewed and reapproved the Company’s compensation philosophy as it appears in this proxy statement.

Summary of Pay Decisions Affecting our NEOs’ Compensation in 2023
​
For 2023, our compensation committee again granted 50% of the long-term incentive grant value in RSUs and 50% in PSUs. The RSUs vest and are
distributed in annual installments over a three-year period. The PSUs, however, are designed to have a one-year performance target based on ROIC(1) with a three-year cliff vest and are distributed in shares two years after the determination of achievement of the performance factor to better align with the long-term interests of shareholders. The STIP is an annual cash-based plan with performance goals based on EBITDA(2) and PRONWC (as defined below in footnote 2 in the table under the heading “Process Utilized in Setting Strategic STIP Performance Targets”).
​
​
(1)
ROIC is defined as Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT) divided by average invested capital (based on a rolling thirteen-month average). We define NOPAT as net income plus after-tax finance expense. Invested capital is defined as total assets plus capitalized lease expense, less current liabilities, excluding short-term debt. In 2023, the compensation committee changed the definition of ROIC to exclude cash and cash equivalents from average invested capital.
​
(2)
EBITDA is defined as income before interest (interest expense and interest income), income tax provision (benefit), and depreciation and amortization and is not required by or presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States. Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts EBITDA to exclude the change in fair value of interest rate swaps and loss on extinguishment of debt. Management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate ongoing operations and believes they are useful to investors because they enable them to perform meaningful comparisons of past and present operating results. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure (net income), please refer to page 51 to our 2023 Annual Report, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
​
The compensation committee also made salary adjustments for our executive officers in late 2023 to reflect promotions, the changing median pay in our peer companies, and individual officer performance.
Executive Compensation Elements
​
The four elements of the Company’s executive compensation program are:
STIP and LTIP awards are intended to comprise a significant portion of each officer’s total compensation opportunity and are designed to motivate and reward our officers for growing the Company and maximizing long-term shareholder
value. Ad hoc discretionary bonuses may be awarded occasionally for exceptional performance but are not a standard element of the Company’s executive compensation structure.

TARGET COMPENSATION PAY MIX

​ |  | ​ | ​ |  | ​

Role of Management in Setting Executive Compensation
​
As described below, the compensation committee increased the compensation of our officers for 2023. Management did not participate in such decisions. However, the Company’s current chief executive officer makes, and in 2023 made, recommendations to the compensation committee with respect to base salaries and performance targets for the STIP and LTIP for officers other than himself. The compensation committee makes all decisions regarding each NEO’s base salary, LTIP and STIP targets, the overall performance targets of the plans, and the potential and actual payouts under each plan.
Awards granted under the STIP and the LTIP are subject to our recoupment policy adopted in 2023 to comply with Rule 10D-1 of the Exchange Act. That policy requires us to claw back incentive awards received on or after October 2, 2023 in the event of a financial restatement due to material noncompliance with a financial reporting requirement under U.S. federal securities laws that would have resulted in lower payments based on the restated results. We also have our previously
adopted officer misconduct clawback policy that permits us to claw back awards due to a restatement of the Company’s financial results and the award received would have been lower had the financial results been properly calculated and reported, including as a result of an officer’s fraud or misconduct. In 2023, we adopted a misconduct clawback policy that permits recoupment of incentive compensation in the event of a financial restatement and also in the event of misconduct by an officer or other person covered under the policy, even if such misconduct does not result in a financial restatement. Misconduct includes an individual’s fraud or willful misconduct that results in reputational or financial harm to the Company, an individual’s material violation of law or the Company’s compliance and ethics-related policies or procedures, or an individual’s failure to appropriately supervise Company personnel. Both clawback policies adopted in 2023 apply to incentive-based compensation received during a three-year lookback period. Our non-Rule 10D-1 clawback policies apply to the extent not superseded by the Rule 10D-1 recoupment policy.
​
Base Salary
​
Our compensation committee has historically reviewed base salaries for our NEOs on an annual basis and at the time of promotions or other changes in responsibilities. Consistent with past practice, in late 2023, the compensation committee approved general base salary increases for the NEOs to continue to move them, as determined appropriate,
toward the 50th percentile based upon FW Cook’s 2023 study. The November 2023 increases in NEO salaries averaged 8.03% and were in line with market data provided by FW Cook. Base salaries for 2023 and 2022 base salary increases are listed below:

​

Mr. Brown was awarded a salary increase in February 2023 in recognition of the best financial performance of the Wood Products division in the history of the division during fiscal year 2022, continued safety performance that outperformed industry peers, and the exceptional participation in the due diligence, negotiation and acquisition of the Havana, Florida and Chapman, Alabama mills.
​
Short Term Incentive Plan
​
The STIP is designed to recognize and reward the contributions that our NEOs and other participants make to the Company’s annual performance. Payout under the STIP is based on achievement of performance measures that are tied to the Company’s annual financial performance. We offer this plan to encourage and reward conduct that will lead to better performance of our businesses as measured by the performance criteria. Each NEO’s participation in the plan, along with the criteria for calculation of the payout, is established annually by our compensation committee and communicated to the participants in a STIP award notice. A determination of the amount payable under the plan based on actual performance is made by the compensation committee generally in February of the following year, and resulting payments or awards are made to participants.
The actual STIP awards may be less than or greater than the target incentive amounts depending on
the achievement of pre-determined financial goals and performance objectives and the exercise of the compensation committee’s discretion.
For 2023, the compensation committee set a threshold of 25% of the target award as the minimum award to be granted under the program. If performance is below this threshold, no STIP payout is earned. The compensation committee also set a maximum of 225% of the target award and approved a payout graph with a payout line whereby once the level of performance is determined the award multiplier can be determined. The dollar amount of the threshold, target, and maximum award payable to each of our NEOs is set out in the table found under “2023 Grants of Plan-Based Awards” in this section of this proxy statement.
​
2023 STIP Compensation
​
For 2023, each of our NEOs participated in the STIP. The plan provided for awards to be determined based on the extent to which the financial goals and performance objectives were met during the year, subject to the compensation committee’s discretion.
Process Utilized in Setting Strategic STIP Performance Targets
The compensation committee employs a rigorous process to review the annual budget that promotes the Company’s strategic objectives and forms the basis for establishing the STIP performance targets. Furthermore, the compensation committee takes
into account Company-specific and industry outlook for the year, historical and projected growth rates for the Company as well as peers and external expectations and guidance.
The performance metrics established by the compensation committee under our 2023 STIP were based on forecasts of 1.25 million U.S. housing starts, a primary metric in our business. In setting the STIP target in February 2023, the compensation committee evaluated forecasted earnings for 2023, and market and industry conditions including the expected decline in housing starts given continued actions by the Federal Reserve to increase interest rates to combat high levels of

inflation which significantly increased mortgage rates. Elevated mortgage rates, when coupled with high home prices, created home affordability constraints and uncertainty broadly across the U.S. economy. As such, the compensation committee expected a deceleration in housing starts compared with actual housing starts of 1.55 million in 2022 and 1.60 million in 2021. In addition, there were ongoing uncertainties to operations due to supply chain constraints. In 2021 and the first half of 2022, the Company experienced unusually high commodity product prices compared to historical periods and experienced commodity price declines in the second half of 2022 that were anticipated to continue to be lower for 2023. In addition, the
Company expected price erosion and reduced volumes for our EWP products due to slowing economic activity and decreased demand for new residential construction. The committee set the STIP target at a level intended to drive meaningful performance while balancing concerns for expected pricing and volume impacts. The annual incentive target awards, financial goals, and performance objectives required for each NEO participating in the STIP for 2023 are set forth below. Actual payouts are also shown. Due to the Company’s performance, maximum payouts were achieved in two of the three business roles as set forth below. No discretion was exercised by the compensation committee in awarding payouts for 2023.

Corporate EBITDA shown is based on the financial performance of Adjusted EBITDA, which reflects normal recurring adjustments made, such as the change in fair value of interest rate swaps, as disclosed in our tie-out of Adjusted EBITDA. The calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is described on page 39 of the proxy statement.

Pre-tax Return on Net Working Capital (PRONWC) is calculated based on GAAP amounts by dividing BMD’s net operating income by the average net working capital reported as of each month-end during a 13-month period running from December 2022 through December 2023. The compensation committee includes PRONWC as a portion of Mr. Strom’s performance criteria because it reflects BMD’s control of working capital, which is a critical financial measure in our distribution business.

The STIP target award is applied to the actual base salary earnings for the year and not base salary at year-end.

2023 Ad Hoc Discretionary Bonus Awards
​
From time to time, the compensation committee may elect to grant a discretionary bonus to one or more of the NEOs or to other employees to recognize and reward exemplary performance providing value to the Company beyond what is recognized by the structure of the STIP. A formal plan does not
govern these bonus payments, and no NEO has any contractual entitlement or expectation of any such payment. The amount and timing of the grant of any such bonus to NEOs are determined by the compensation committee at its sole discretion. No such bonuses were awarded in 2023 to the NEOs.
​
Long Term Incentive Plan
​
We make long-term equity grants under the LTIP which provides for grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, other stock-based awards, other cash-based compensation, and performance awards. The purpose of the LTIP is to provide incentives that will attract, retain, and motivate high-performing officers, Directors, employees, and consultants by providing them a proprietary interest in our long-term success or
compensation based on their performance in fulfilling their responsibilities to our Company. The LTIP is administered by our compensation committee.
Awards granted under the LTIP are subject to our recoupment policies.
​
LTIP Awards
​
In February 2023, the compensation committee approved equity grants under the LTIP to our NEOs. The amount and structure of the grants were based on the recommendations FW Cook made as a result of the study they conducted on behalf of the compensation committee. Officer participants received two types of equity grants: RSUs and PSUs. The compensation committee set a dollar amount for each participant to calculate the target RSU and PSU grants on the day of the award after market close. Half of the value of the target award was granted in RSUs. The other half of the target award was granted in PSUs.
The RSUs awarded in 2023 vest over a three-year period with one-third vesting on each of March 1 of
each of 2024, 2025, and 2026 with share distribution the following day. The PSUs awarded at target are adjusted by a performance factor determined by the performance objectives described below and may be further adjusted at the discretion of the compensation committee. The performance-adjusted PSUs granted in 2023 vest in a single installment on March 1, 2026, with share distribution the following day. Vesting of PSUs and RSUs is subject to an officer’s continued employment with the Company, with certain limited exceptions described below.
The 2023 LTIP awards were based on a closing market value on March 1, 2023 of  $69.33 and are as follows:

change was made to exclude the impact of the large cash balance held by the organization as of the end of 2022, and to enhance the return required of management when a significant investment was made in the business. The compensation committee believes this change in the metric definition will drive stronger future returns.
The compensation committee chose ROIC as the performance metric in the LTIP to differentiate from the EBITDA measure used in the STIP because it believed ROIC would put a focus on short-term and long-term investments and reinforce the importance of shareholder returns. If ROIC is below threshold as shown above, no PSUs are earned. At threshold performance, 50% of the target PSUs are earned, and at maximum performance, 200% of the target PSUs are earned. The compensation committee approved a payout scale such that when results fall between the threshold and maximum reference points, interpolation is used to determine the actual PSUs to be awarded.
The PSUs awarded are earned based on a one-year ROIC performance established by the compensation committee. The compensation committee continues to evaluate the appropriateness of a one-year performance goal with a three-year cliff vest for the PSUs and did so again in 2023. Based on the market conditions and the nature of the products we manufacture and sell, the committee continued to support a one-year performance goal with a three-year cliff vest for the PSUs awarded in 2023 and believes the three-year cliff vesting aligns management with the long-term interests of our shareholders.
Vesting of LTIP awards is subject to an NEO’s continued employment through the vesting date, except in certain limited circumstances. If an NEO dies or becomes disabled,
(i)
all unvested RSUs become vested and
​
(ii)
all earned PSUs for which the performance metric has been satisfied become vested at that amount.
​
In the event the performance year applicable to the PSUs has not elapsed at the time of such death or disability, the PSUs will vest based on actual achievement of the performance metric. In the event of an NEO’s eligible retirement,
(i)
unvested RSUs become vested as to 1/3 of the award, multiplied by a pro rata portion based on the number of full calendar months that has elapsed during the then 12-month vesting period prior to retirement, divided by 12, and
​
(ii)
earned PSUs become vested as to a pro rata portion based on the number of full calendar months that has elapsed during the vesting period prior to retirement, divided by 36.
​
Payout occurs on the normally scheduled payout date for the PSU awards, and upon retirement for the pro rata RSU awards. For purposes of LTIP vesting, retirement means the NEO’s termination after attainment of age 62 and completion of at least 15 years of employment with the Company and its predecessors, or age 65 and completion of at least five years of employment with the Company. In the event of a change in control in which the LTIP awards are not replaced by an equivalent award,
(i)
RSUs become vested, and
​
(ii)
unearned PSUs become vested at target and PSUs for which the performance metric has been satisfied and, therefore, are subject to time-vesting, become vested.
​
​
Other Compensation and Benefit Plans
​
The Company’s NEOs receive additional compensation under a few other compensation and benefit plans, as further described below. These plans and benefits, except those that are frozen or closed to new entrants, are provided to create an aggregate compensation and benefits package
that is competitive in the marketplace, thereby helping us to attract and retain the management talent needed to achieve the Company’s strategic objectives.

Boise Cascade Supplemental Pension Plan
On December 31, 2009, the compensation committee froze our nonqualified Boise Cascade Supplemental Pension Plan (SUPP) in which Messrs. Hibbs and Brown participated. The benefits accrued will be paid from the Company’s general assets. The aggregate, present value of the pension benefits as of December 31, 2023, for each of our NEOs who are participants in the SUPP are disclosed in the table found under the heading “2023 Supplemental Pension Benefits” following this CD&A.
Boise Cascade Company Savings Plan
The Company maintains a 401(k) defined-contribution savings plan for all of its U.S. salaried employees, including its NEOs. Under the plan, eligible employees electing to participate may contribute up to 50% of their pretax income, subject to Internal Revenue Service (IRS) rules limiting an individual’s total contributions and the application of IRS tests designed to ensure that the plan does not discriminate in favor of highly compensated employees.
Since January 2013, the Company has provided a contribution to each salaried employee’s 401(k) account for each pay period in an amount equal to 4% of the employee’s eligible wages (base salary and short-term incentive compensation) for the period. If the Company’s EBITDA meets or exceeds targets specified by the compensation committee and the Board, the Company is able to make additional discretionary contributions in an amount up to 2%, 3%, or 4% of the employee’s wages, depending on the affected employee’s number of years of service. For 2023, the compensation committee and the Board set an EBITDA performance threshold of  $175 million and maximum of  $250 million. The Company approved a payout scale so that when performance falls
between the threshold and maximum levels linear interpolation is used to determine the actual award. Amounts in excess of IRS annual limitations on the amount of income on which Company contributions may be made to qualified defined contribution retirement plans are paid to participants as taxable cash compensation and/or credited to the participant’s deferred compensation account. In 2023, the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA performance was $757 million. All of our NEOs participate in the plan.
Amounts deferred under this plan by the NEOs are included in the salary disclosure in the “Summary Compensation Table,” and amounts contributed by the Company to the account of an NEO under the plan are included in the “All Other Compensation” column in the “Summary Compensation Table.”
Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan
Under the Boise Cascade Company Deferred Compensation Plan, participating employees irrevocably elect each year to defer receipt of a portion of their base salary and incentive compensation. A participant’s account is credited with an amount equal to what the Company’s 401(k) contribution would have been if the money had not been deferred under the 401(k) plan rather than the deferred compensation plan and with imputed interest at a rate equal to 130% of Moody’s Composite Average of Yields on Corporate Bonds. Participants may receive payment of their deferred compensation plan balance in a lump sum or installments over a specified period of years following the termination of their employment with the Company or can elect distributions of in-service account deferrals prior to termination, as specified in the plan. Amounts deferred under this plan in any relevant year or contributed to the account under the plan by any of our NEOs are disclosed in the “2023 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation” table.
​
Agreements with Named Executive Officers
​
The Company does not have employment agreements with any of its NEOs other than the severance agreements described in this section.
In 2022, the Company entered into new severance agreements with each of the NEOs to maintain operating continuity in the event of a change of control. The severance agreements generally are effective until January 31st of the following year, except that if the Company does not give notice of non-extension 60 days prior to expiration, the
term of each severance agreement will be automatically extended for an additional year.
The severance agreements for the NEOs provide that in the event of a “qualifying termination” (meaning any termination with the exception of a termination (i) by the Company for cause or disability; (ii) by the NEO other than for good reason (as described in the severance agreement); or (iii) as a result of the NEO’s death), the NEO will be entitled to receive (a) their full base salary through

the date of termination, a STIP payment for the year of termination based on the plan’s actual payout for the year and pro-rated to reflect the portion of the year expired prior to termination, and all other compensation to which he or she is then entitled; (b) a lump-sum severance payment equal to two times the sum of  (i) the NEO’s annual base salary plus (ii) target STIP for the year in which the termination occurs; (c) a lump-sum amount equal to the value of such NEO’s unused and accrued time off, less any advanced time off, in accordance with the applicable time-off policy in effect on the termination date; and (d) a lump sum payment equal to 18 times the monthly Company-paid premium amount for all life, disability, accident, and healthcare plans, programs, or arrangements.
In the event of a change in control, the agreements require a second trigger of a qualifying termination from employment before benefits are payable.
The severance agreements provide that in the event of a non-qualifying termination, the NEO will be
entitled to receive their full base salary through the date of termination, plus all other compensation to which they are then entitled. In the event of a failure to perform duties as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness or injury, the NEO will be entitled to continue to receive the full base salary until such time as employment is terminated due to disability. No severance payments or continuation of healthcare benefits beyond the date of termination are provided for under such circumstances.
In consideration of the severance payments described above, each severance agreement contains confidentiality, non-solicitation, and non-disparagement provisions, and a general release of all claims against the Company and its affiliates, as a condition of payment of benefits under the severance agreement.

​
(1)
Amount included in the “Salary” and “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” columns of the “Summary Compensation Table” based on the participant’s election for each deferral source.
​
(2)
Amounts included in the “All Other Compensation” column of the “Summary Compensation Table.”
​
(3)
The above-market portion of the interest earned is included in the “Change in Pension Value/​Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings” column of the “Summary Compensation Table.”
​
(4)
The amounts reported in this column (with the exception of any amounts that are not above-market earnings) have been reported for applicable years in the “Summary Compensation Table.”
​
Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control
​
The following table reflects an estimate of the compensation the Company would have been required to pay to each of its NEOs under the compensation plans, contracts, agreements, and arrangements between each such individual and the Company for:
●
Voluntary termination with good reason or involuntary termination by the Company without cause;
​
●
A change in control without adoption of a replacement plan or assumption of the existing obligations under plans;
​
●
Death or disability; or
​
●
Retirement, as applicable.
​
The amounts shown assume that such termination or change in control was effective as of December 31, 2023. The actual amounts the Company would have been required to pay on other dates may be determined only at the time of separation from the Company or the change in control and will accordingly vary from those
disclosed here, which are based on a hypothetical December 31, 2023 termination. The amounts disclosed here do not include amounts earned by the NEO through that time as base salary, any bonuses approved by the compensation committee prior to that date, and payments earned prior to that date, such as 2023 awards earned pursuant to our STIP, because neither their amount nor the timing of the payment is affected by the fact or the nature of the termination of employment. In addition, the disclosure does not include amounts payable pursuant to the 401(k), deferred compensation, or pension plans, which are disclosed elsewhere in the CD&A in this proxy statement, and accompanying tables.
The availability of severance payments and continued healthcare and insurance benefits beyond termination of employment is contractually conditioned for each of our NEOs on their provision to the Company of a release of claims arising from their employment and the termination thereof and their performance of contractual confidentiality, non-solicitation, and non-disparagement obligations contained in their severance

Pay Ratio Disclosure
As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd Frank) and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of our employees and the chief executive officer total compensation of Nate Jorgensen.
For 2023, our last completed fiscal year:
●
The annual total compensation of our median employee (excluding our chief executive officer and our employees in Canada) was $60,220; and
​
●
The total compensation of our chief executive officer was $7,676,740 based on the 2023 amounts reflected in the “Summary Compensation Table”.
​
Based on this information, we estimate that the annual total compensation of our chief executive officer was approximately 127.5 times that of our median employee in 2023.
We identified our median employee by preparing a list of all our employees (excluding our chief executive officer and our employees in Canada) as of December 31, 2023. We then collected the information necessary to calculate Medicare taxable income for the year ended December 31, 2023, as will be reported to the IRS on Form W-2 for the employees included in such list.
We did not include our employees in Canada in determining our median employee, as they accounted for less than 5% of our total employee population as of December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, we had a total of 7,340 employees, comprised of 7,234 U.S.-based employees, and 106 employees in Canada.

​ | Location | ​ | ​ | # of Employees | ​ | ​ | % of Total | ​ | ​ | ​ | Total # of Employees | ​
​ | U.S. | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 7,234 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 98.6% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 7,340 | ​ | ​
​ | Canada | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 106 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 1.4% | ​ | ​ | ​

The pay ratio included above is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our payroll and the methodology described above. The SEC rules for identifying the median-compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their compensation practices. As such, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies may have different employment and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates, and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.

​
(1)
Mr. Jorgensen was the CEO (PEO) for all four fiscal years.
​
(2)
The Non-PEO NEOs for whom the average compensation is presented in this table are for fiscal 2023, Messrs. Hibbs, Brown, and Strom, and Ms. Twedt; for fiscal 2022, Messrs. Hibbs, Brown, and Strom, and Ms. Twedt; for fiscal 2021, Messrs. Hibbs, Rancourt, Brown, and Strom, and Ms. Twedt; and for fiscal 2020, Messrs. Corrick, Rancourt, Brown, and Stokes, and Ms. Twedt.
​
(3)
The amounts shown in the “Compensation Actually Paid to PEO” and “Average Compensation Actually Paid to Non-PEO NEOs” columns 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 PEO and the Non-PEO NEOs. These amounts reflect the “Total” column of the “Summary Compensation Table” for the applicable fiscal year with certain adjustments as described in footnote 4.
​
(4)
“Compensation Actually Paid to PEO” and “Average Compensation Actually Paid to Non-PEO NEOs” columns reflects the deductions and adjustments of certain amounts for the PEO and the Non-PEO NEOs as set forth below. Equity values are calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Amounts in the “Deduction to Stock Awards” column are the amounts from the “Stock Awards” column below set forth in the “Summary Compensation Table”. Amounts in the “Deduction to Change in Pension Value” column reflect the change in pension value included in the “Change in Pension Value/Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings” column reported in the “Summary Compensation Table”. Amounts in the “Adjustment to Pension Service Cost” column are based on the service cost for services rendered during the listed year.
​
(5)
The peer group used for this total shareholder return (TSR) calculation is comprised of the S&P 600 Building Products Index. This is the same peer group as reported in the Company’s Form 10-K for 2023. The peer group TSR is weighted according to the index’s stock market capitalization on December 31, 2019. 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 index, respectively, and assumes dividends were reinvested in the Company’s stock. Historical stock performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock performance. Beginning in 2023, the Company transitioned to the S&P 600 Building Products Index as the peer group for the TSR calculation. This change in peer group was to better reflect the industry in which we compete, as the S&P 600 Building Products Index represents small capitalization building products industry performance.
​
(6)
The peer group used for this TSR calculation and used in the pay versus performance table in 2022 is comprised of the four companies listed in the table below. This is the same peer group as reported in the Company’s Form 10-K for 2020, 2021, and 2022. During 2021, Norbord Inc. was removed from the peer group upon being acquired by West Fraser Timber Co. Ltd. The peer group companies have remained otherwise unchanged during these three fiscal years. The peer group TSR is weighted according to the respective peer companies’ stock market capitalization on December 31, 2019. 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 peers, respectively. Historical stock performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock performance.

EBITDA is calculated as set forth on page 39 of the proxy statement.

​ | AUDIT-RELATED MATTERS | ​

​ |  | ​ | ​ |  | ​ | ​ | Our Board recommends shareholders vote FOR the ratification of the appointment of KPMG as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2024. | ​

The audit committee of our Board is responsible for the engagement of our independent auditor and has appointed KPMG in that capacity for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.
Although ratification is not required by our bylaws or otherwise, our Board is submitting the selection of KPMG to our shareholders for ratification because we value our shareholders’ views on our independent registered public accounting firm. If the appointment of KPMG is not ratified, the audit committee will evaluate the basis for the shareholders’ vote when determining whether to continue the firm’s engagement, but the audit committee may ultimately decide to continue the engagement of the firm or another audit firm without resubmitting the matter to shareholders. Even if the selection of KPMG is ratified, the audit committee may, in its sole discretion, change the appointment at any time during the year if it determines a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders.
It is expected that one or more representatives of KPMG will be available online at our annual meeting to answer questions. They will also have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so.
For information on the services KPMG provided for us in 2023, please refer to the audit committee report at page 61 .
Shares will be voted according to shareholder instructions. This proposal is considered a routine matter with respect to which a broker or other nominee can generally vote in their discretion. Therefore, no broker non-votes are expected in connection with this proposal. This proposal requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes of the shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting of the shareholders and entitled to vote.

Stock Ownership Guidelines for Our Directors
Our Board has established Company stock ownership guidelines for our Directors, which are intended to ensure that our Directors acquire and maintain an equity stake in the Company and more closely align their interests with those of our shareholders. The Board has delegated its responsibility for oversight of the stock ownership guidelines to our corporate governance and nominating committee.
Our Director stock ownership guidelines provide that, within five years from becoming a Director, each Director should acquire and maintain stock ownership in the Company equal to five times their annual cash retainer. Each of our Directors has met this requirement or is on track to do so within the five-year timeframe.

Quorum
​
A quorum is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will exist if shareholders holding a majority of the shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the annual meeting are present online or by proxy. Shareholders have no right to cumulative voting as to any matter, including the election of Directors. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be treated as shares of common stock that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a
quorum. A broker non-vote occurs when a broker does not have discretionary voting power for that particular item and has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner. Brokers do not have discretionary voting power on non-routine matters. Proposal No. 3, the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2024, is the only routine matter for consideration at the annual meeting.
​
Independent Tabulator
​
We have appointed Broadridge Financial Solutions Inc. (Broadridge) as our independent tabulator to receive and tabulate all votes cast at the annual
meeting. Broadridge will determine whether a quorum is present.
​
Independent Inspector of Election
​
We have appointed Broadridge as our independent inspector of election to certify the vote results.
Proxy Solicitation
​
Our Board is soliciting your proxy. Our employees and Directors may solicit proxies by mail, telephone, email, or online. Our employees and Directors will not receive additional compensation for these activities and the entire cost of this solicitation will be borne by us. In addition, Morrow Sodali LLC,
333 Ludlow Street, 5th Floor, South Tower, Stamford, Connecticut 06902 (Morrow Sodali), will assist us in the solicitation of proxies. We will pay $7,500 in fees, plus expenses and disbursements, to Morrow Sodali for its proxy solicitation services.
