Shareholders Payout

The administrators’ payouts are aligned with the company’s short, medium, and long-term interests. The fixed portion of their payments reflects average market prices, whereas the variable portion is associated with short-term (12-month periods) and long-term (over one year) results, the latter of which is intended solely to statutory directors.

There are payment criteria for each plan, as follows:

Fixed payment
  • Job performed
  • Performance assessment
  • Market benchmarking
Short-term incentives (STI)
  • Targets hit
Long-Term Incentives (LTI)
Performance Shares

Fixed payment

The fixed portion of our executives’ payments is defined and adjusted in accordance with the professional’s merit in the performance of their duties, based on a performance assessment for that period. It can also be in step with the market, in case our annual research identifies any imbalances. These changes must be put forward by our People, Governance, and Appointments Committee and approved by our Managing Board.

The performance assessment takes into account financial results, EBIT, free cash flow, individual targets, specific projects, and the area.

Short-term incentives (STI)

The variable portion of payments is fully linked to the achievement of targets set for the year. They vary according to target achievement level or success, and apply to all of the company’s executives.

Our main performance indicators are associated with our financial results. The company also sets specific projects and targets for each business area and a set of individual targets for each administrator under a target agreement concept. In line with our ESG strategy, targets associated with variable payments are also linked to environmental, social, and governance matters, variable according to each area. Such targets make up 10% of variable payments.

 

Long-Term Incentives (LTI)

Long-term Incentive (LTI) plans contribute to these goal aligning the interests of Dexco’s directors and shareholders.

The LTI may correspond to 25% of total earnings.

Plans include Performance Shares and Matching incentives. They ensure our directors can subscribe to Dexco’s common stocks within authorized capital limits. However, stock options are only granted in relation to periods sufficient profits were made to allow shareholders to be paid mandatory dividends.

Performance Shares

Our executives (CEO, VPs, and statutory directors) are granted shares issued by Dexco provided they meet their performance targets. This payment is released based on Dexco’s five-year strategic plan.

The performance target is set annually by our People, Governance, and Appointments Committee and approved by our Managing Board. Share transfers are subject to a five-year grace period and the participant’s continuity at Dexco.

The number of shares will be calculated using the average trading price as a baseline. In case of dismissal without cause or no job reinstatement, from the 37th month onwards, the participant will receive, after a five-year period, an amount of shares that corresponds to time worked. However, if the participant quits Dexco, they will lose their stock options, regardless of time elapsed.

Matching

We invite the beneficiary to purchase the company’s shares, investing a percentage of their net Short-Term Incentive earnings. Share matching will occur as follows:

LTI granted in the latest programs vs Capital Dilution
Current Plan Amount Granted per Year 2018 2019 2020 2021
Stock Options 781.831 0,11%
Stock Options 1.619.703 0,23%
