The compensation program is well structured: roughly 50% of each executive's equity award value is in performance-based stock awards tied to measurable revenue and Adjusted EBITDA targets, and actual payouts tracked genuine business results (revenue +14%, Adjusted EBITDA +32% in 2025). Kenneth Burdick is listed as the CEO in our pre-extracted database, but the proxy makes clear he transitioned to Executive Chairperson in March 2025 at a sharply reduced salary of $200,000, with his $7.1 million total compensation driven almost entirely by a large stock award reflecting multi-year carry-over performance tranches from his prior CEO tenure — this is consistent with a planned leadership transition rather than ongoing excessive pay. The company maintains a Dodd-Frank-compliant clawback policy, prohibits hedging and pledging, uses an independent compensation consultant, and offers no tax gross-up provisions, all of which are positive governance markers.

PwC has served since 2020 (approximately 6 years), well below the 25-year tenure threshold; non-audit fees of $2,143 represent less than 0.2% of audit fees of $1,825,015, far below the 50% ratio that would raise independence concerns; PwC is a Big 4 firm appropriate for a $2.7 billion market-cap company; and no material restatements were identified.
