This DEFA14A filing significantly revises the executive compensation data previously disclosed in the definitive proxy statement filed on January 7, 2026. The correction, described as an "inadvertent clerical error," results in substantially higher reported "compensation actually paid" for key executives, including the Executive Chairman and President & CEO, for fiscal year 2025. For example, the Executive Chairman's "Compensation Actually Paid" for 2025 increased by over $17 million. While the company attributes this to an error, such a material restatement of executive pay figures can draw increased scrutiny from shareholders regarding corporate governance and the accuracy of disclosures. Investors should review the updated compensation tables to understand the revised pay structures and their implications for the company's pay-for-performance alignment.
