- Statutory Executive Officers: Includes fixed salary, benefits, and variable compensation.
- Short-Term Incentive (ICP): Paid in cash annually. Goals are weighted toward financial performance (EBITDA and operational cash flow after investments) and strategic objectives. Approximately 10% of goals are linked to sustainability purposes.
- Long-Term Incentive (ILP): Stock-based plan with annual grants. Performance is measured over three-year periods using Total Shareholder Return (TSR) and Economic Value Added (EVA).
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the specific dollar amounts or BRL values for fixed fees and salary multiples, as the policy describes the structure but omits specific figures.
- Confirm the exact vesting schedules and performance thresholds for the TSR and EVA metrics in the Long-Term Incentive plan.
- Review the "People and Sustainability Committee" reports for details on the peer group selection used for market benchmarking.
- Check subsequent filings for the actual payout results of the Short-Term Incentive (ICP) based on the EBITDA and cash flow targets mentioned.
- Monitor compliance with the Stock Ownership Guidelines (SOG) for the CEO and other executives in future proxy statements or insider trading reports.
