Compensation Actually Paid vs. Total Shareholder Return [Text Block]

As shown in Chart 2, the PEOs' CAP amounts are aligned with the Company’s TSR due to the Company’s strategic and management-related actions that have led to performance improvements and driven shareholder return. The other NEOs’ CAP amounts have varied each year due to changes in the composition of the group as noted above.

Chart 2

img254336025_139.jpg 

     
Compensation Actually Paid vs. Net Income [Text Block]

As shown in Chart 3, the Company's net income has decreased due to higher LIFO expense, increased corporate administrative costs, including incentive compensation and costs related to shareholder activism, the transition impact of a new paid-time-off policy in the prior year, and increased interest expense. The other NEOs’ CAP amounts have varied each year due to changes in the composition of the group as noted above. The Company does not use net income to determine compensation levels or incentive plan payouts.

Chart 3

img254336025_140.jpg 

     
Compensation Actually Paid vs. Company Selected Measure [Text Block]

As shown in Chart 4, the Company's Adjusted EBITDA has varied over the three years presented. The correlation between Adjusted EBITDA and PEO CAP, however, is evident from 2021 to 2022. Payout of the annual cash incentive awards and 40% of the long-term cash incentive awards earned in 2021 and 2022 are based on Adjusted EBITDA performance. The Adjusted EBITDA to PEO CAP correlation is less defined between 2020 and 2021 due to the departure of Mr. Eidson and the hiring of Mr. Sarsam and the resulting mix of compensation elements. In 2020, Mr. Eidson received retention cash payments and phantom stock awards related to his service as interim CEO. Mr. Sarsam joined the Company in September 2020 and therefore received a prorated stock award, earned a prorated annual incentive payout and earned no long-term payments whereas in 2021 he received and earned full year values. Additionally, the increase in the Company's stock price in 2021 resulted in a substantial increase in Mr. Sarsam's CAP. The other NEOs’ CAP amounts have varied each year due to changes in the composition of the group as noted above.

Total Shareholder Return Vs Peer Group [Text Block]

As shown in Chart 1, our Total Shareholder Return (TSR) performance trajectory has been positive and outperformed the industry index in 2022, driven by our strategy and performance improvements since Mr. Sarsam took over as CEO, resulting in strong shareholder value.
