TABLE OF CONTENTS
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain of the statements in this Proxy Statement, particularly those anticipating future performance, business prospects, growth and operating strategies, and similar matters, and those that include the words “could,” “should,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects” and “estimates” or similar expressions constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. For those statements, the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made; however, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. There can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements will be accurate because they are based on many assumptions, which involve risks and uncertainties. The following important factors could cause future results to differ from historical experience and our present expectations or projections: changes in economic or industry conditions; competition; inflation and deflation in raw material prices, freight and other input costs; inflation and deflation in consumer markets; currency fluctuations; energy costs and supply; timing and level of capital expenditures; timing and implementation of price increases for the Company’s products; impairment charges; identification and consummation of acquisitions on favorable terms, if at all; integration of acquisitions; international operations; introduction of new products; rationalization of operations; tax and tax reform, product and other claims; litigation; geopolitical conflicts; regulatory and political changes in the jurisdictions in which the Company does business; and other risks identified in the Company’s U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports and public announcements.

W. Christopher Wellborn
The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation requires the Company to have at least two and no more than eleven directors, with the Board of Directors to determine the exact number. The Board of Directors has set the size of the Board at nine directors. The Board of Directors has nominated Joseph A. Onorato, William H. Runge III and W. Christopher Wellborn as Class III directors at the Annual Meeting. The Class I and Class II directors have one year and two years, respectively, remaining on their terms of office and will not be voted upon at the Annual Meeting.
It is the intention of the persons named as proxies to vote the proxies for the election of each of Messrs. Onorato, Runge and Wellborn as a Class III director of the Company, unless the Stockholders direct otherwise in their proxies. Each of Messrs. Onorato, Runge and Wellborn has consented to serve as a director of the Company if elected. In the unanticipated event that any of Messrs. Onorato, Runge and Wellborn refuses or is unable to serve as a director, the persons named as proxies reserve full discretion to vote for such other person or persons as may be nominated. The Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any of Messrs. Onorato, Runge and Wellborn will be unable or will decline to serve as a director.
The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in the election at the Annual Meeting at which a quorum is present is required for the election of the nominees.

Contractual Obligations with Respect to the Election of Directors
In connection with the merger of Aladdin with a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company in February 1994, the Company agreed to nominate up to two persons designated by the former stockholders of Aladdin for election or re-election, as the case may be, to the Board of Directors of the Company and to use its best efforts to cause such nominees to be elected to the Board of Directors. At such time as the former stockholders of Aladdin have disposed of 50% or more of the common stock issued to them in the merger, the Company will be required to nominate only one such person to the Board of Directors, and at such time as the former stockholders of Aladdin have disposed of 75% or more of the common stock issued to them in the merger, the Company will no longer be required to nominate any of such persons to the Board of Directors. The former stockholders of Aladdin currently may designate one director, and Jeffrey S. Lorberbaum is currently such designee.

Board Membership Criteria
The Board of Directors and the Governance Committee consider the experience, skills and characteristics of candidates for Board membership as well as for each Board member on an annual basis. The Board and the Governance Committee seek the most capable directors and candidates who possess the appropriate qualifications to make a significant contribution to the Board, the Company and its stockholders. In this process, the Board considers, among other factors, each director’s and candidate’s:

business experience

technical skills

industry expertise

financial literacy

sufficient time to devote to the Board

language skills

leadership qualities

character and integrity

education

commitment to represent the long-term interests of the Company’s stockholders, and

other personal characteristics.
The Board has adopted a Board of Directors Selection Policy, which can be found on the Company’s website at mohawkind.com/esg/resources/ under the subheading “ESG-Related Policies.” The Board and the Governance Committee have been and continue to be committed to including highly qualified individuals with diverse or non-traditional backgrounds, skills and experiences in the pool of candidates for Board membership. The Board and the Governance Committee will continue to monitor and self-assess the experience, skills and characteristics of Board members and candidates on an annual basis.
Meetings and Committees of the Board of Directors
GENERAL
During 2024, the Board of Directors held five meetings. All members of the Board of Directors attended over 75% of the total number of Board of Directors and Committee meetings that they were eligible to attend. All members of the Board of Directors at the time of the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders were present at such meeting.
INDEPENDENCE
The Board of Directors has affirmatively determined, considering generally all relevant facts and circumstances regarding each non-management director, that none of Mr. Bruckmann, Mr. Burris, Mr. Engquist, Mr. Onorato, Mr. Runge or Dr. Bogart have a material relationship that would interfere with such director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, and therefore they are independent within the meaning of the standards for independence set forth in the Company’s corporate governance guidelines, which are consistent with applicable Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) corporate governance standards. Definitions of independence for directors and committee members can be found in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, which can be found on the Company’s website at ir.mohawkind.com under the heading “Investors” and the subheading “Corporate Governance.”
In February 2025, the Board of Directors reappointed Mr. Engquist as Lead Independent Director.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Corporate Governance
Board Leadership
The Board of Directors has determined that a combined Chairman and Chief Executive Officer position is most appropriate for the Company at this time. Mr. Lorberbaum has served in this combined role since 2004. The Board of Directors believes that Mr. Lorberbaum, who is also a significant stockholder of the Company, has efficiently conducted the business and affairs of the Company and believes that he has provided effective leadership and guidance as the Chairman in the management of the Company’s risk profile and pursuit of its strategic goals.
In deciding that a combined Chairman and Chief Executive Officer position is the appropriate leadership structure for the Company at this time, the Governance Committee and Board of Directors also recognized the benefit of independent leadership to enhance the effectiveness of the Board’s oversight role. Accordingly, in February 2023, our Governance Committee and Board of Directors adopted amended and restated Corporate Governance Guidelines that, among other things, established the role of Lead Independent Director. Mr. Engquist was subsequently appointed by the Board to serve as the Company’s first Lead Independent Director and was re-appointed to this role in February 2025.
[MISSING IMAGE: ic_leadindependentdirect-pn.jpg]     The Lead Independent Director:

participates in setting the agenda of Board of Directors and Committee meetings,

coordinates the distribution and presentation of meeting materials,

maintains the focus and punctuality of Board of Directors and Committee meetings, and

presides over executive session meetings of the independent directors.
Classified Board Structure
The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation divides the Board of Directors into three distinct classes, with each class serving a three-year term. The Board of Directors believes that this classified structure fosters stability and continuity, benefiting both the Company and its stockholders. The classified structure ensures that the Board of Directors always includes experienced directors who are knowledgeable in the Company’s strategic goals, business and markets. Electing directors to three-year terms, rather than one-year terms, enhances the independence of the Company’s non-management directors and encourages them to make decisions in the long-term best interest of the Company and its stockholders. The Board of Directors also believes that the Company’s classified board structure serves the best interests of both the Company and its stockholders by reducing the potential influence of certain investors and special interest groups with short-term agendas that may be harmful to the long-term interests of the Company and its stockholders. This protects long-term stockholder value and ensures accountability. The Company’s classified board structure mitigates the risk of coercive takeover tactics by better positioning the Board of Directors to negotiate for the best outcome on behalf of all of the Company’s stockholders. Since only one-third of the Company’s directors are elected at any annual meeting, it would require at least two annual meetings to change a majority of the Board, giving incumbent directors significant leverage to secure the best long-term results for all of the Company’s stockholders.
Majority Voting for Directors; Director Resignation Policy
The Company’s Bylaws contain a majority voting standard for the election of directors in an uncontested election (that is, an election where the number of nominees is equal to the number of seats open). In an uncontested election, each nominee must be elected by the vote of a majority of the votes cast. A “majority of the votes cast” means the number of votes cast “for” a director’s election must exceed the number of votes cast “against” ​(excluding abstentions). In addition, our Board has adopted a director resignation policy whereby, if a director nominee does not receive the requisite vote, the Board expects such director to tender his or her resignation. Under the policy, the Board shall fill director vacancies and new directorships only with candidates who tender, promptly following their appointment to the Board, the same form of resignation tendered by other directors in accordance with the director resignation policy. If an incumbent director fails to receive the required vote for re-election as outlined above, the Governance Committee will make a recommendation to the Board on whether to accept or reject the resignation, or whether other action should be taken. The Board will act on the Governance Committee’s recommendation within 90 days from the date of the certification of the director election results and will promptly disclose its decision in a filing with the SEC. The Governance Committee and the Board may consider any factors they deem relevant in deciding whether to accept a director’s resignation. The Board expects the director whose resignation is under consideration to abstain from participating in any decision regarding that resignation.

In addition, the Company is dedicated to creating a working environment that is free from hazards, promoting employee well-being and prioritizing safety at every level. By consolidating safety data from all business segments, the Company calculates its corporate recordable incident rate, which serves as a key indicator of its overall safety performance.

Our strong ethical foundation serves as the guiding principle that shapes our interactions with customers, employees, vendors and the communities where we operate.
In addition to meeting applicable local and national regulatory compliance standards, we continue to utilize best-in-class reporting frameworks such as:

the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI),

CDP, and

the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB).
[MISSING IMAGE: vr_performance-pn.jpg]
Sustainability is a fundamental component of Mohawk’s overall business strategy. This commitment is inherent in our development of innovative products to meet customer desires and needs, our manufacturing processes, and our broader supply chains and business systems that aim to meet the needs of our employees, customers and communities. Our Board of Directors evaluates and makes recommendations regarding Mohawk’s sustainability initiatives as part of our assessment of the Company’s financial and operational results and plans. As Board members, we recognize the decisions we make today can have a long-term effect on the business’ performance, people, and the planet. That recognition inspires the dedication and diligence we bring to our roles.”
KAREN SMITH BOGART, PHD
Chair of the Governance Committee
Risk Oversight
The Board of Directors provides oversight of the financial, operational, legal and other business risks to the Company on an ongoing basis. Risk is inherent with every business, and how well a business manages risk can ultimately determine its success. The Company faces a number of risks, including economic, financial, cybersecurity, legal and regulatory risks and others, such as the impact of competition. Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of the risks that the Company faces, while the Board, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, the Board is responsible for satisfying itself that the Company’s risk management processes are adequate and functioning as designed.
While the Board is ultimately responsible for risk oversight, the Audit Committee has primary responsibility for financial, legal, cybersecurity, sustainability, climate and other operational risks, and the Compensation Committee assesses the risks associated with compensation practices. Each of the committees of the Board routinely reports to the full Board on material issues considered by such committee, which may include issues of risk.
Annual Board and Committee Self-Evaluations
The Board conducts an annual self-evaluation process to assess whether the Board, its committees, and each member of the Board are working effectively, and to provide an opportunity to reflect upon and improve processes and effectiveness.
Each Board member conducts an individual self-assessment annually. In addition, the Governance Committee designs and establishes the overall evaluation framework for the Board assessment, and the Chair of the Governance Committee leads the evaluation process. Evaluation topics include:

Board composition and refreshment;

timing, agenda, and content of Board meetings;

Board dynamics and function; and

executive succession planning.
The Chair of the Governance Committee then presents a summary identifying any themes or issues that have emerged to the Board on an anonymous basis.
Each committee also conducts its own annual self-evaluation and reports the results to the Board. Each committee’s evaluation includes:

an assessment of the committee’s compliance with the committee’s charter;

the committee’s composition and refreshment; and

timing, agenda and content of committee meetings.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Corporate Governance
Nomination Process for the Board of Directors
The Governance Committee evaluates candidates for the Board of Directors identified by its members, other Board members, as well as the Company’s management and stockholders. The Governance Committee from time to time may also retain a third-party executive search firm to identify qualified candidates for membership on the Board of Directors. A stockholder who wishes to recommend a prospective nominee for consideration by the Governance Committee should follow the procedures set forth below under “Stockholder Proposals.”
Once the Governance Committee has identified a prospective nominee, it makes an initial determination as to whether to conduct a full evaluation. In evaluating a prospective nominee, the Governance Committee may consider among other things, the following criteria:

the ability of the prospective nominee to represent the interests of the stockholders;

the prospective nominee’s standards of integrity, commitment and independence of thought and judgment;

the prospective nominee’s ability to dedicate sufficient time, energy and attention to the performance of his or her duties;

the extent to which the prospective nominee contributes to the range of talent, skill and expertise of the Board of Directors; and,

the extent to which the prospective nominee helps the Board of Directors reflect the gender, racial, ethnic and global diversity of the Company’s stockholders, employees and customers.
After completing the evaluation, the Governance Committee makes a recommendation to the Board of Directors.
Board Refreshment
Each member of the Board of Directors is required to submit his or her resignation to the Board of Directors upon the expiration of the term of service in which his or her 75th birthday occurs. Similarly, each director is required to submit his or her resignation upon a failure to receive a majority of the votes cast in any uncontested election for which they are a nominee. In each case, the Board of Directors is not required to accept such resignation, and the Board of Directors will consider a variety of factors when determining whether any director might continue his or her service on the board.
Stockholder Engagement
The Company’s Board and management highly value the input and insights of its stockholders. The Board and management proactively engage with a significant portion of stockholders, including institutional investors, throughout the year. The aim of the stockholder engagement program is to learn about matters important to stockholders, which in turn drives improvements in our policies and practices. Regular engagement provides Mohawk with valuable insights into stockholder concerns and support as we develop and implement strategies for long-term growth. Recognizing that stockholders are the owners of the Company, we are committed to maintaining a robust engagement program and open and ongoing dialogue on relevant issues.

2024 Director Compensation
Our directors’ interests, like our management’s, are aligned with those of our stockholders through meaningful stock ownership. Continuing non-management directors are granted shares of the Company’s common stock on an annual basis, constituting a substantial portion of their compensation. To further enhance alignment, our director stock ownership guidelines require directors with five or more years of tenure to own shares with a value equivalent to three times their annual retainer.

Proposal 2 —
Ratification of Selection of KPMG LLP as the Company’s Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Audit Committee has selected KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025 and has directed that management submit the selection of the independent registered public accounting firm to stockholders for ratification at the Annual Meeting. Representatives of KPMG are expected to be present at the meeting, will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.
Stockholder ratification of the selection of KPMG as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is not required by the Company’s Bylaws or otherwise. If the Stockholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether to retain KPMG, but still may retain KPMG as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it is determined that such a change would be in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders.
The members of the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors believe that the continued retention of KPMG to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is in the best interest of the Company and its investors.

Audit Committee
Report of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of
Mohawk Industries, Inc.
The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the independent external audit firm retained to audit the Company’s financial statements (the “Audit Firm”). In connection with its responsibilities, the Audit Committee received the written disclosure from the Audit Firm, which is required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) regarding the Audit Firm’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, discussed with the Audit Firm any relationships that may impact the objectivity and independence of the Audit Firm and satisfied itself as to the independence of the Audit Firm. In addition, the members of the Audit Committee considered whether the provision of services for the year ended December 31, 2024 described below under Principal Accountant Fees and Services was compatible with maintaining such independence. In conjunction with the mandated rotation of the Audit Firm’s lead engagement partner, the Audit Committee and its chairperson are directly involved in the selection of the Audit Firm’s new lead engagement partner.
The Audit Committee members reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 with management. The Audit Committee members also discussed with the Audit Firm the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and the SEC. Based upon these reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC.

Proposal 3 —
Advisory Vote on
Executive Compensation
Pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, the Company is providing stockholders with the opportunity to vote to approve, on an advisory (nonbinding) basis, the compensation of its named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement in accordance with the SEC’s rules.
As described in detail under the heading “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the Company’s executive compensation programs are designed to attract, motivate and retain its named executive officers, who are critical to its success. Under these programs, the named executive officers are rewarded for the achievement of specific annual, long-term and strategic goals, business unit goals, corporate goals, and the realization of increased stockholder value. Please read the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” for additional details about our executive compensation programs, including information about the 2024 compensation of our named executive officers.
The Compensation Committee regularly reviews the compensation programs for the Company’s named executive officers to ensure they achieve the desired goals of aligning the executive compensation structure with stockholders’ interests and current market practices. The Company is asking stockholders to indicate their support for the named executive officer compensation as described in this proxy statement. This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives stockholders the opportunity to express their views on named executive officers’ compensation. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement. Accordingly, the Company will ask stockholders to vote for the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:
RESOLVED, that the Company’s Stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the executive compensation tables and related narrative executive compensation disclosure in this proxy statement.”
The say-on-pay vote is advisory, and therefore not binding on the Company, the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors. The Company’s Board of Directors and Compensation Committee value the opinions of stockholders and to the extent there is any significant vote against the named executive officer compensation as disclosed in this proxy statement, they will consider stockholders’ concerns and the Compensation Committee will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address those concerns.

As of December 31, 2024
Although macroeconomic and market challenges continued in 2024, the Company advanced its focus on its long-term strategic goals, generating free cash flow of $679.5 million and investing $454.4 million in capital projects. During 2024, home sales around the world stayed suppressed, U.S. homeowners remained locked in place with low mortgage rates, and existing U.S. home sales fell to a 30-year low. Central banks in the U.S., Europe and other regions lowered interest rates during the later part of last year, though the impact on housing turnover was negligible in most regions. New home construction was also constrained across the world, with higher home costs and interest rates impacting starts. Throughout the year, investments in the commercial sector slowed, though they remained stronger than residential remodeling. These factors reduced market demand and created heightened industry competition for volume. This also resulted in greater unabsorbed overhead and temporary shutdown costs as the Company managed production and inventory. Given these conditions, the Company focused on stimulating sales with innovative new products, marketing actions and promotional programs. During 2024, the Company initiated significant restructuring actions and operational improvements that are expected to lower costs and benefit longer-term results. Through these actions, the Company delivered an increase of approximately 6% in full-year adjusted earnings per share despite a soft market.
Key metrics from the Company’s 2024 performance include:

net sales were approximately $10.8 billion, a decrease of 2.7% as reported or 3.3% on an adjusted basis;

earnings (loss) per share (EPS) as reported was $8.14, an increase from loss per share of $6.90 for 2023;

excluding unusual charges, EPS was $9.70*, an increase of 5.5% compared to 2023*;

for the full year, the Company generated free cash flow of approximately $679.5 million, a decrease of 5.1% from the prior year*;

operating income was $694.7 million, an increase from an operating loss of $287.8 million in 2023;

adjusted operating income was $820.1 million, up approximately 0.7% compared to 2023*.
*
Please see our 2024 Annual Report that accompanies this Proxy Statement for additional information on the results of our operations for 2024 and a reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures contained in Annex A to this Proxy Statement.
The Company sets goals at the beginning of each year to establish expected payments at various levels of performance under the Company’s incentive plans, and the Compensation Committee considers our executives’ accomplishments when determining payouts. As discussed in detail below, as we significantly rely on performance metrics for determining our executive compensation, the compensation of our named executive officers was positively affected by our financial results in 2024.
COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY AND OBJECTIVES
The Company’s goal is to have a compensation program that enables it to attract, motivate, develop and retain highly qualified executives who will assist in meeting the Company’s long-range objectives, thereby serving the interests of stockholders. To meet these objectives, executive leadership must be of the caliber and have the level of experience and expertise necessary to manage the Company’s complex global business successfully. The Company believes that, in order to do this effectively, its compensation program must meet the following criteria:

Executive Compensation
[MISSING IMAGE: ic_boxperformance-pn.jpg]
[MISSING IMAGE: ic_boxbasedcomp-pn.jpg]
[MISSING IMAGE: ic_boxstockholders-pn.jpg]
[MISSING IMAGE: ic_boxretaintalent-pn.jpg]

create a strong link between the total direct compensation of executives and the Company’s annual and longer-term financial performance;

use performance-based incentive compensation to place significant amounts of executive compensation at risk;

closely align executives’ interests with those of stockholders by making stock-based incentives an element of executive compensation; and

provide executives with total compensation opportunities at levels that are competitive for comparable positions at companies with which the Company competes for talent.
Determinations and assessments of executive compensation are primarily driven by two considerations:
1
Market data based on the compensation levels, programs and practices of certain other peer companies, and
2
Company and individual performance in specified areas, such as financial metrics and operational efficiency.
The Company believes that market competitiveness and performance factors, considered together, provide a reasonable basis to assess executive performance and determine compensation levels that provide incentive to build value for stockholders. As described below, the Company considers each of these areas in making executive compensation decisions from setting base salaries to providing annual and long-term rewards.
MARKET DATA
The Company considers the compensation levels, programs and practices of certain other companies to assist in setting executive compensation so that it is market competitive. The Company reviews compensation data of a peer group that consists of companies of comparable size on both a revenue and market capitalization basis that are engaged, to varying degrees, in businesses similar to the Company. The Company believes that it competes, to varying degrees, for business and talent with the companies in this peer group. The Compensation Committee considers the 50th percentile of the Company’s peer group as a guide for setting total direct compensation (base salary plus annual incentive plus long-term incentive) for executives. For purposes of setting compensation levels for 2024, the peer group was comprised of the following companies (which is the same peer group used in 2023):
Builders FirstSource, Inc.
Carrier Global Corporation
Eastman Chemical Company
Fortune Brands Home & Security
JELD-WEN Holding, Inc.
Leggett & Platt

Trane Technologies plc
Whirlpool Corporation
The Compensation Committee obtained information on the compensation levels, programs and practices of the companies within the peer group from market surveys periodically conducted by the Rewards Solutions practice at Aon plc (“Aon”), a compensation consultant engaged by the Company. In November 2023, the Compensation Committee considered whether the work of Aon raised any conflict of interest. The Compensation Committee considered various factors and determined that with respect to executive and director compensation-related matters, no conflict of interest was raised by the work of Aon. The factors considered by the Compensation Committee included, but were not limited to, Aon’s representation to the Compensation Committee that fees unrelated to compensation work paid by the Company to Aon were less than 0.05% of Aon’s total revenues.
COMPANY AND INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE METRICS
The Company relies significantly on performance-based measurements to determine the compensation earned by executives. To customize the compensation program and recognize individual performance and contribution to the Company, the Company focuses on goals relating to:

earnings per share (EPS)

total stockholder return (TSR), and

individual performance.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Executive Compensation
The Company selects these financial and individual metrics for its incentive programs because it believes that they create appropriate incentives, aligned with those of its stockholders, to improve the operational efficiency and financial performance of the Company. The Company also believes these metrics are good indicators of its overall performance, including whether the Company and its business units are achieving annual or long-term business objectives, and lead to the creation of long-term value for stockholders.
COMPONENTS OF OUR COMPENSATION PROGRAM
The Company’s executive compensation program consists primarily of the following integrated components: base salary, annual incentive awards and long-term incentive opportunities, which together comprise an executive’s total direct compensation.
Base salary provides the Company’s executive officers with a level of compensation consistent with their skills, experience and contributions in relation to comparable positions in the competitive marketplace. Base salary is set at the beginning of each calendar year and does not vary based on individual or business performance during the year or during prior periods.
By contrast, the other components of our executives’ total direct compensation — the annual incentive awards and components of long-term incentive compensation — are at risk based on performance. The Compensation Committee reviews the base salaries of executive officers annually and otherwise when an executive is promoted or has a significant change in duties or responsibilities. In addition, the Company also considers the executive’s experience for the position, differences in position and responsibilities relative to the peer group and the executive’s personal contribution to the financial and operational performance of the Company and its businesses.
For 2024, annual incentive awards were awarded under the Senior Executive Annual Incentive Plan (the “SEAIP”). The SEAIP provides a direct link between executive compensation and annual performance. Executives’ annual incentive awards are at risk based on how well the Company and executives perform against annual performance goals. Awards made pursuant to the SEAIP may be in the form of cash or restricted stock units.
The Company also awarded equity incentive awards in the form of restricted stock units under the Company’s Senior Executive Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Senior Executive LTIP”) in 2024. The Senior Executive LTIP provides a link between executive compensation and long-term performance, as the value of grants is based on total stockholder return for a three-year performance period and annual Company and business unit performance goals as well as personal performance goals. To determine the number of awards granted under the Senior Executive LTIP in February 2024, the total stockholder return was measured over the three-year period ending in 2023 and Company and business unit performance was measured against 2023 financial goals. The Compensation Committee also considered the individual performance of each executive officer in relation to the personal performance goals previously set by the Compensation Committee. Equity incentive awards vest ratably over three years following the grant date.
Awards made pursuant to the SEAIP and the Senior Executive LTIP are governed by the Company’s 2017 Plan.
The Company’s compensation program is complemented with limited perquisites and other executive benefits, including 401(k) matching contributions and severance benefits that the Compensation Committee believes are appropriate, individually and in the aggregate, to ensure the executive compensation program remains competitive.
ALLOCATION OF TOTAL DIRECT COMPENSATION
Because stockholders place their money at risk when they invest in the Company, the Company believes that a significant portion of executives’ compensation should be aligned with stockholder value. For example, in 2024, assuming achievement of target performance objectives, approximately 74% of Mr. Lorberbaum’s total target direct compensation consisted of annual incentive awards and RSU awards. Other named executive officers had similar allocations of target salary, annual incentive awards and RSU awards for 2024, with 71% of the principal compensation components for our named executive officers in the aggregate consisting of annual incentive awards and RSU awards. Based on the Company’s performance in 2024, approximately 28% of the total direct compensation actually paid to Mr. Lorberbaum was represented by his annual bonus award and approximately 47% of the total direct compensation actually paid to Mr. Lorberbaum was represented by his long-term incentive opportunity. By placing a significant portion of an executive’s annual pay at risk, the Compensation Committee believes that compensation is more directly related to performance and more closely links the financial interests of the executives and those of the stockholders.

CONSIDERATION OF LAST YEAR’S ADVISORY STOCKHOLDER VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
At the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, more than 89% of the votes cast approved the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers. The Board and the Compensation Committee appreciate and value the views of the Company’s stockholders. In considering the result of this most recent advisory vote on executive compensation, the Compensation Committee concluded that the compensation paid to executive officers and the Company’s overall pay practices continue to enjoy strong stockholder support. In light of this support, the Compensation Committee did not make material changes to our executive compensation program.

At the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, stockholders expressed a preference that advisory votes on executive compensation be held on an annual basis. Consistent with this preference, the Board has implemented an advisory vote on executive compensation on an annual basis. The next required vote on the frequency of stockholder votes on the compensation of executive officers will occur at the 2029 Annual Meeting.
DETERMINATION OF EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION
2024 Review of Compensation
As a guide in setting compensation for 2024, the Compensation Committee used the results of a survey by Aon of the Company’s peer group executive compensation conducted in 2022. This assessment showed that for 2023:

Mr. Lorberbaum, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, received total direct compensation below the 25th percentile of the peer group, which is broken down as follows:
>
base salary above the 75th percentile of the peer group;
>
total cash compensation, which includes base salary and annual cash incentive awards, above the 25th percentile of the peer group; and
>
long-term incentive compensation below the 25th percentile of the peer group.

Mr. Brunk, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, received total direct compensation below the 25th percentile of the peer group, which is broken down as follows:
>
base salary below the 50th percentile of the peer group;
>
total cash compensation below the 25th percentile of the peer group; and
>
long-term incentive compensation below the 25th percentile of the peer group.

Mr. Wellborn, the Company’s President and Chief Operating Officer, received total direct compensation below the 50th percentile of the peer group, which is broken down as follows:
>
base salary above the 75th percentile of the peer group;
>
total cash compensation above the 75th percentile of the peer group; and
>
long-term incentive compensation below the 25th percentile of the peer group.

Mr. De Cock, the Company’s President — Flooring North America, received total direct compensation above the 50th percentile of the peer group, which is broken down as follows:
>
base salary above the 75th percentile of the peer group;
>
total cash compensation, which includes base salary and annual cash incentive awards, above the 75th percentile of the peer group; and
>
long-term incentive compensation below the 50th percentile of the peer group.
In making its determinations of 2024 executive compensation, the Compensation Committee at its February 2024 meeting considered:
(i)
the results of the Aon assessment discussed above and a tally sheet detailing the various elements of compensation for named executive officers, including base salary and annual and long-term incentives,
(ii)
results of performance of named executive officers against applicable financial and personal performance goals for 2023, and
(iii)
other factors described in “Compensation Philosophy and Objectives” above.
Then, together with Mr. Lorberbaum’s recommendations for compensation for the named executive officers other than himself, the Compensation Committee made determinations concerning 2024 adjustments to base salaries and awards under the annual and long-term incentive compensation plans.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Executive Compensation
Mr. Vandini was not an executive officer of the Company when 2024 executive officer compensation was determined. In connection with his promotion to President — Global Ceramic in September 2024, Mr. Vandini was granted an equity award of 5,048 time-vesting restricted stock units, and the Compensation Committee determined his compensation package based on the factors discussed above in relation to his position.
Base Salary
Based on the Compensation Committee’s review of market data, the economic conditions and other factors described above, base salaries for 2024 were adjusted in consideration of individual performance and consistent with Company-wide salary increases. Messrs. Lorberbaum and Wellborn received a base salary increase of 3.0% over 2023, Mr. DeCock received a base salary increase of 6.5% over 2023 and Mr. Brunk received a base salary increase of 8.5% over 2023 as a result of merit-based evaluation by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee determined Mr. Vandini’s base salary at the time of his promotion to President — Global Ceramic in September 2024.
Annual Incentive Awards
As discussed above, named executive officers are eligible to earn annual incentive awards under the SEAIP. Pursuant to the plan, each named executive officer who participates in the SEAIP is eligible to participate in a bonus pool that is established based on the Company’s achieving a threshold level of performance, and which determines each named executive officer’s maximum bonus opportunity, subject to negative discretion by the Compensation Committee to determine the actual amount of annual incentive payouts, as described below. The governing parameters of the SEAIP are as follows:
(i)
no annual incentive awards are payable under the plan unless the Company achieves positive consolidated adjusted operating income for the year;
(ii)
actual incentive awards earned by the named executive officers are based on the level of achievement of applicable performance goals established by the Compensation Committee; and
(iii)
each named executive officer has a maximum bonus award limit based on a percentage of the bonus pool (which the Company refers to as the “Maximum Pool Award Limit”).
In 2024, the Company achieved the threshold financial goal of positive consolidated adjusted operating income, making each named executive officer eligible to participate in the bonus pool. The bonus pool for 2024 performance was set by the Compensation Committee at approximately $9.8 million. For 2024, the Maximum Pool Award Limit for each of Messrs. Lorberbaum and Wellborn was approximately $2.7 million and $2.5 million of the bonus pool, respectively, and the Maximum Pool Award Limit for each of Messrs. Brunk and De Cock was approximately $1.2 million of the bonus pool. During 2024, Mr. Vandini participated in the Management Annual Incentive Plan (the “MAIP” and together with the SEAIP, the “Annual Incentive Plans”) and therefore did not participate in the bonus pool under the SEAIP. For 2024 performance, the Compensation Committee exercised its discretion to award less than the Maximum Pool Award Limit for each named executive officer that participated in the SEAIP.
As noted above, actual cash incentive awards earned by the named executive officers are determined based on performance against applicable performance goals established by the Compensation Committee and target incentive opportunities. In February 2024, the Compensation Committee established annual incentive award opportunity ranges for each named executive officer serving at the time, reflected as a percentage of each named executive officer’s 2024 base salary that would be payable based on performance against applicable goals related to operating income and/or adjusted EPS (“Annual Incentive Plan Financial Goals”). The SEAIP for 2024 included an award opportunity at the threshold, target and maximum performance levels.

Long-Term Incentive Plan
With respect to awards granted under the Senior Executive LTIP in the first quarter of 2024, the Compensation Committee determined that RSU awards would have two components: fixed and variable. The fixed component of the RSU grant was based on a percentage of each participant’s salary and not dependent on personal, Company or business unit performance. The variable component of the RSU grant was based on a combination of performance metrics related to total shareholder return and business unit performance as well as personal performance, as further described below. Awards granted under the Senior Executive LTIP vest ratably over the three-year period following the grant date. The “Grants of Plan-Based Awards” table included in this proxy statement shows the actual number of Senior Executive LTIP awards that each named executive officer received in 2024.
Mr. Vandini did not participate in the Senior Executive LTIP. In 2024, Mr. Vandini participated in the Executive Equity Incentive Plan (the “EEIP”) and received restricted stock units based on his performance as President of the Company’s Ceramic Europe business unit during 2023.

FIXED LTIP COMPONENT
In order to recruit and retain key executives, the Compensation Committee designed the Senior Executive LTIP to include a fixed LTIP component based on a percentage of each participant’s 2023 base salary as follows:
Name

Paul F. De Cock 2,998
Mauro Vandini(1) 1,939
(1)
Mr. Vandini participated in the EEIP, which included a fixed LTIP component.
VARIABLE LTIP COMPONENT
Like the SEAIP, in order for 2024 awards to be granted under the variable component of the Senior Executive LTIP, the Company had to achieve positive adjusted consolidated operating income for 2023. Having achieved this threshold, the Compensation Committee evaluated the number of RSUs to grant to the named executive officers under the variable component of the Senior Executive LTIP based on:
(i)
the Company’s stock performance over the three-year period ending in 2023 as compared to the S&P 500 (“TSR Component”),
(ii)
business unit performance in 2023 (“Business Unit Component”), and
(iii)
personal performance objectives, each as described below, together with a qualitative assessment of Company and management performance during the performance period.
TSR COMPONENT
The financial goals for determining the number of stock awards granted in 2024 for the TSR Component of the Senior Executive LTIP were based on total stockholder return (TSR) over the three-year period ending in 2023 as compared to the S&P 500. To determine awards in 2023, the Compensation Committee assigned each participant a target value of stock awards (based on a percentage of 2023 base salary), which would be awarded if the Company achieved TSR at the 50th percentile of the S&P 500. The actual value of restricted stock units awarded could range from 50% to 200% of the target value subject to achieving TSR between the 25th and 75th percentile of the peer group, as set forth in the table below. Calculations between the various performance levels are linear (which means they were determined using straight line interpolation).

BUSINESS UNIT COMPONENT
The financial goals for determining the number of stock awards granted in 2024 for the Business Unit Component of the Senior Executive LTIP were based on Company and Business Unit EPS and Operating Income targets for 2023. The Compensation Committee assigned each participant a target value of stock awards (based on a percentage of 2023 base salary), which would be awarded if the Company or applicable Business Unit achieved the target EPS or operating income, as applicable. The actual value of restricted stock units awarded could range from 0% to 60% of base salary in

INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES
In February 2024, the Compensation Committee reviewed individual performance objectives and accomplishments for each of the named executive officers during 2023. The various objectives are specific to each individual officer, and the Compensation Committee considers each officer’s personal contribution to the Company during the year when making its determinations for the variable Senior Executive LTIP component.

Executive Compensation
QUALITATIVE ASSESSMENT OF VARIABLE COMPONENT
In conducting its qualitative assessment of management performance in 2023, the Compensation Committee considered the Company’s investment of approximately $613.0 million in capital projects for capacity expansions, cost reduction initiatives and upgrades for recent acquisitions as well as maintenance across the segments, generating $716.3 million of free cash flow, completing and integrating multiple acquisitions, reducing inventory levels and identifying and executing several restructuring initiatives. In connection with its qualitative assessment of management’s performance, the Compensation Committee noted that many factors impacting Company performance were outside of management’s control. These factors included increased interest rates, constrained residential investments and further tightening of consumer discretionary spending.
Taking these items into account, as well as performance against other qualitative performance measures, the Compensation Committee determined to pay out awards under the variable Senior Executive LTIP component as set forth in the table below. The number of RSUs ultimately granted was determined by dividing the named executive officer’s award value by the average daily closing prices for the Common Stock for the last thirty (30) consecutive trading days from and including February 7, 2024 (which is the date that is five trading days before the February 2024 Compensation Committee meeting).

Mr. Vandini participated in the EEIP, which did not include an individual performance or qualitative assessment component. Mr. Vandini’s variable award consists only of RSUs based on business unit performance as described above.
PERQUISITES AND OTHER EXECUTIVE BENEFITS
Perquisites and other executive benefits are a part of the executives’ overall compensation and include access to health care and other benefits. The Company offers additional executive perquisites at the senior leadership level, including defined contribution matching benefits, health benefits and life insurance coverage benefits as referenced in the “Summary Compensation Table”.
RETIREMENT BENEFITS AND DEFERRED COMPENSATION
Retirement benefits also fulfill an important role within overall executive compensation objectives because they provide a financial security component that promotes retention. The Company maintains the Mohawk Industries Retirement Savings Plan 2, a 401(k) retirement plan in which its named executive officers are eligible to participate, along with a substantial number of the Company’s employees.
The Company also maintains the Mohawk Industries, Inc. Senior Management Deferred Compensation Plan under which a select group of management or highly compensated employees, including named executive officers, may elect to defer up to 25% of their pre-tax earnings and up to 100% of their year-end bonus payments and receive tax-deferred returns on those deferrals. The account balances in this plan are unfunded, and the participants have previously earned and voluntarily elected to defer these amounts in order to accumulate tax-deferred returns. The Company does not match contributions to this plan. Plan participants can allocate their account balances among the same investment options available under the Company’s qualified contribution retirement plan (other than investments in Company stock), which also accumulate on a tax-deferred basis.
SEVERANCE PAY ARRANGEMENTS
The Company’s named executive officers participate in the general employee severance plan which provides a specified number of weeks of severance pay based on continuous service time to the Company and the reason for termination of employment. The Company’s named executive officers, other than Mr. Vandini, are employees at-will and do not have long-term contracts with the Company. See “Employment Agreements with Named Executive Officers” for a description of the Company’s agreement with Mr. Vandini, including severance benefits provided thereunder and “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” for a quantification of the severance benefits.

The ownership multiple for the Company’s CEO is six times annual base salary, for the COO is three times annual base salary, for the CFO and business segment leaders is two times annual base salary and for other Senior Executive LTIP participants is one times annual base salary. Stock ownership guidelines provide that each executive is expected to meet this goal within five years of his or her initial participation in the Senior Executive LTIP. The stock ownership guidelines require Senior Executive LTIP participants to retain at least 50% of any award made under the Senior Executive LTIP (including any shares issued upon the vesting of such award) calculated on an after tax basis until the applicable level of ownership has been achieved. For purposes of the stock ownership guidelines for the Company’s CEO, ownership only includes fully vested shares of Common Stock, and for other executive officers, ownership includes shares of Common Stock, unvested RSUs and vested, in-the-money options.
In addition, members of the Company’s Board of Directors are expected to own stock and/or stock rights equal in value to five times the cash value of their annual retainers, whether paid in cash or stock, within five years of their election.
As of April 1, 2025, all of the Company’s directors and executive officers have met their stock ownership requirements.
CLAWBACK POLICY
Effective October 2, 2023, the Company adopted a clawback policy to align with listing rules adopted by NYSE as required by the SEC. The policy applies to all executive officers (as defined under the applicable rules) and requires the Company to seek to recoup certain incentive-based compensation, whether cash- or equity-based, from current or former officers in the event that the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance of the Company with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws.
INSIDER TRADING POLICY
Mohawk is committed to promoting high standards of ethical business conduct and compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations. As part of this commitment, the Company has adopted its Insider Trading Policy governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of Company securities by directors, officers, employees and their family members, as well as by Mohawk itself, that the Company believes is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and the exchange listing standards applicable to the Company. A copy of the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, including any amendments thereto, was filed as Exhibit 19.1 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
POLICY ON HEDGING TRANSACTIONS
The Company believes that hedging against losses in the Company’s shares by the Company’s leadership breaks the alignment between stockholders and management. Moreover, the Company is concerned that engaging in derivative transactions with respect to the Company’s securities may focus management attention on short-term performance and may enhance the risk that members of management — knowingly or unknowingly — trade in the Company’s securities while in the possession of material non-public information. Accordingly, the Company’s Insider Trading Policy prohibits directors and officers from engaging in a variety of hedging transactions with respect to the Company’s common stock, including “short sales” and “short sales against the box.” The policy also places restrictions on the buying or selling of put or call options by directors and officers. This anti-hedging policy does not extend to all employees of the Company but is limited to directors and officers.

EQUITY GRANT GUIDELINES
The Company’s practice is to grant long-term equity awards on a predetermined schedule in connection with its annual compensation setting process. The Committee does not take material nonpublic information into account when determining the timing and terms of equity awards. The Company has not timed the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation for named executive officer grants in fiscal year 2024.
To the extent permitted by Delaware law, the Compensation Committee may delegate to one or more officers of the Company the power to designate the employees (other than executive officers) of the Company or any of its subsidiaries who will receive grants of equity incentive awards and the number of such awards.
COMPENSATION RISK REVIEW
The Company has assessed the incentive compensation policies and practices for its employees and concluded that they do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company’s compensation policies and practices were evaluated to ensure that they do not foster risk-taking above the level of risk associated with the Company’s business model.
Compensation Committee Report
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors oversees the compensation programs of the Company on behalf of the Board of Directors. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Compensation Committee reviewed and discussed with management of the Company the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” included in this proxy statement and based on such review and discussions recommended to the Board of Directors that the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” be included in this proxy statement and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the SEC.

Includes amounts of employee contributions representing compensation earned and deferred in prior years that were reported in the “Summary Compensation Table” for the year in which earned or that would have been so reported if the officer had been a named executive officer in such year.
The Senior Management Deferred Compensation Plan is a nonqualified deferred compensation plan pursuant to which certain members of senior management of the Company, including the named executive officers, may elect to defer up to 25% of their annual base salary and up to 100% of their incentive cash bonus. Deferral elections are due before January 1 of each year, and are irrevocable. The Company directs a trustee to invest the assets which are held in an irrevocable rabbi trust. In order to provide for an accumulation of assets comparable to the contractual liabilities accruing under the plan, the Company may direct the trustee in writing to invest the assets held in the trust to correspond to the hypothetical investments made for participants in accordance with their direction. Deferred amounts are credited with earnings or losses based on the rate of return of mutual funds in which the assets are invested. The participant must make an election regarding payment terms at least twelve (12) months before payment, which may be either a lump sum, or annual installments from two (2) to ten (10) years. If a participant dies before receiving the full value of the deferral account balances, the designated beneficiary would receive the remainder of that benefit. All accounts would be immediately distributed upon a change in control of the Company.

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR CHANGE IN CONTROL
Each of the Company’s named executive officers, other than Mr. Vandini, is entitled to participate in the Company’s severance plan that is available to all employees. In addition, as described above under “Employment Agreements with Named Executive Officers,” as of December 31, 2024, the Company was party to employment agreements with Mr. De Cock and Mr. Vandini, each of which specify the payments and benefits to which such executives are entitled upon a termination of employment for specified reasons.

Pursuant to the terms of the 2017 Plan, an executive participating in the plan is eligible for retirement upon reaching the age of 60 following 10 years of continuous service to the Company. Upon retirement, any restricted stock units held by the executive continue to vest on their normal terms subject to forfeiture if the executive competes with the Company during the vesting period. Mr. Lorberbaum, Mr. Wellborn and Mr. Vandini were eligible for retirement as of December 31, 2024.

Amount shown is the sum of (i) two times Mr. De Cock’s 2024 base salary and (ii) two times Mr. De Cock’s annual cash bonus that would have been paid at the target level for 2024, payable quarterly in eight equal installments following termination.
(3)
Under Mr. Vandini’s employment agreement, the Company agreed to pay to Mr. Vandini an amount equal to two years of total compensation if Mr. Vandini was terminated without just cause, if Mr. Vandini resigned for just cause, or in case of death or disability.

Reflects the value of unvested restricted stock units that vest upon the designated event, in each case based on the closing market price of the Common Stock on December 31, 2024, the last trading day of the year ($119.13). Pursuant to the 2017 Plan, unvested stock options and restricted stock units vest upon a change in control, assuming that such awards are not assumed or otherwise equitably converted in connection with the change in control. If the awards are assumed or otherwise equitably converted in connection with the change in control, then the outstanding unvested stock options and RSUs granted under the 2017 Plan will vest if the executive’s employment is terminated without cause or he resigns with good reason (as defined in the 2017 Plan) within one year following the change in control. For purposes of this table, we have assumed that the outstanding, unvested RSUs were not assumed in connection with the change in control. Under the 2017 Plan, unvested stock options and RSUs vest upon the executive’s termination of employment due to death or disability.
(5)
Reflects life insurance benefit equal to one times the then-current annual salary. Mr. Vandini’s life insurance benefit equals $1.470 million, converted to U.S. dollars using the euro to dollar exchange rate of 1.05 for 2024.
(6)
Reflects AD&D insurance benefit equal to one times the then-current annual salary. For Mr. Vandini, reflects long-term disability due to accident benefit equal to $3.675 million, converted to U.S. dollars using the euro to dollar exchange rate of 1.05 for 2024.
CEO Pay Ratio
The following ratio compares the fiscal year 2024 annual total compensation of the Company’s median-paid employee (which we identified in 2023) with the fiscal year 2024 annual total compensation of Jeffrey S. Lorberbaum, the Company’s CEO. The pay ratio included below is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K (the “pay ratio rule”). The Company selected October 1, 2023 as the date to identify its median employee.
The compensation measure that we used in 2023 to identify our median employee was base wages paid to all employees other than our CEO, as reflected in our payroll records. This compensation measure was consistently applied to all employees included in the calculation. The Company annualized base wages for all full-time employees and also annualized base wages for part-time employees based on their projected annual hours.
As of October 1, 2023, the Company employed a total of 43,657 worldwide employees, 16,867 of which resided in the United States. For purposes of identifying the median employee in 2023, we included all of our employees in the median employee analysis after making certain exclusions as permitted under the de minimis exception of the SEC rules.(1) The Company used average exchange rates over December 2023 to convert compensation data from the local currencies in which it was paid into U.S. dollars.
The Company calculated the annual total compensation for the median employee using the same methodology we use for our named executive officers as set forth in the “Summary Compensation Table” in this proxy statement. The annual total compensation of our CEO for fiscal year 2024 was $4,778,183 and the annual total compensation for fiscal year 2024 of our median employee was $44,175. The resulting ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the annual total compensation of our median employee for 2024 is 108:1.
(1)
As is permitted under SEC rules, we removed 1,720 global employees (approximately 3.94% of our total employee population) from the data set. These countries and the applicable employee headcounts as of the sample date were as follows:
Bulgaria 1,408 Greece 26 India 3
Romania 222 Ukraine 16 Belarus 1

In determining the CAP to the Company’s named executive officers (“NEOs”), the Company is required to make various adjustments to amounts that have been reported in the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”) in previous years, as the SEC’s valuation methods for this section differ from those required in the SCT. The table below summarizes compensation values both previously reported in our SCT, as well as the adjusted values required in this section for the 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2020 fiscal years. Note that for the Company’s NEOs other than its principal executive officer (the “PEO”), compensation is reported as an average.

The Company supplements its condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with US GAAP, with certain non-GAAP financial measures. As required by the Securities and Exchange Commission rules, the tables above present a reconciliation of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable US GAAP measure. Each of the non-GAAP measures set forth above should be considered in addition to the comparable US GAAP measure, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures, when reconciled to the corresponding US GAAP measure, help its investors as follows: Non-GAAP revenue measures that assist in identifying growth trends and in comparisons of revenue with prior and future periods and non-GAAP profitability measures that assist in understanding the long-term profitability trends of the Company’s business and in comparisons of its profits with prior and future periods.
The Company excludes certain items from its non-GAAP revenue measures because these items can vary dramatically between periods and can obscure underlying business trends. Items excluded from the Company’s non-GAAP revenue measures include: foreign currency transactions and translation and the impact of acquisitions.
The Company excludes certain items from its non-GAAP profitability measures because these items may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, the Company’s core operating performance. Items excluded from the Company’s non-GAAP profitability measures include:

restructuring, acquisition and integration-related and other costs,

legal settlements, reserves and fees,

impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles,

acquisition purchase accounting, including inventory step-up,

release of indemnification assets, and

the reversal of uncertain tax positions.
