Additional 402(v) Disclosure Average summary compensation table total for Non-PEO NEOs is calculated as (i) the average summary compensation table total amounts for Messrs. Hale, Galbraith, Roche and Cohen for 2025 and 2024; and (ii) the average summary compensation table total amounts for Messrs. Hale and Galbraith, John Valentine and Kris Wiebeck for 2023, 2022 and 2021 (Messrs. Roche and Cohen's 2023, 2022 and 2021 compensation is not required to be disclosed because 2024 was their first year as NEOs).Total shareholder return represents that of the Company, assuming $100 was invested on December 31, 2020.
The following graphs display the relationships for compensation actually paid to PEO (“PEO CAP”) and average compensation actually paid to non-PEO NEOs (“NEO CAP”) versus TSR, net income (loss) and organic revenue growth for the five years ended December 31, 2025.
As previously discussed under the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” pay for performance is our guiding principle. The measures used by the Company for both long-term and short-term incentive awards have been selected because the Compensation Committee believes they incentivize our executive officers to make business decisions that align with the long-term interests of our shareholders. The most important financial performance measures used to link compensation actually paid to our NEOs for 2025 are as follows:
        
Measure:: 1          
Pay vs Performance Disclosure          
Name Organic revenue growth        
Non-GAAP Measure Description Organic revenue is calculated as commissions and fees for the relevant period, excluding (i) the first twelve months of commissions and fees generated from new partners and (ii) commissions and fees from divestitures. Organic revenue growth is the change in organic revenue period-to-period, with prior period results adjusted to (i) include commissions and fees that were excluded from organic revenue in the prior period because the relevant partners had not yet reached the twelve-month owned mark, but which have reached the twelve-month owned mark in the current period, and (ii) exclude commissions and fees related to divestitures from organic revenue. Refer to the Appendix to this Proxy Statement for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to comparable GAAP financial measures.
