Approval of Fiscal Year 2024 Executive Incentive Plan
On December 14, 2023, the Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the Fiscal Year 2024 Executive Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”). The Incentive Plan establishes cash incentive awards that may be earned by senior management approved for participation in the Incentive Plan, including the named executive officers of the Company, based on the Company’s achievement of certain corporate performance metrics during the Company’s 2024 fiscal year (the “Fiscal Year”). The Incentive Plan also establishes minimum performance metrics that must be achieved before any incentives are awarded under the Incentive Plan. The Incentive Plan’s annual corporate goals, which are approved in advance by the Compensation Committee, involve achievement of certain revenue and non-GAAP operating income metrics during the Fiscal Year.
Under the Incentive Plan, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and its Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer are each eligible to earn cash incentive awards equaling, in the aggregate, one-hundred and sixty percent (160%) and one-hundred percent (100%), respectively, of their base salaries for the Fiscal Year if the Company achieves its target performance metrics during the Fiscal Year, with the opportunity to earn up to a maximum of two (2) times their target awards to the extent the Company exceeds its target performance metrics in the Fiscal Year. The Company’s Senior Vice President, Technology and Manufacturing, its Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing, and its Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary (each a named executive officer of the Company within the meaning of the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) are each eligible to earn cash incentive awards equaling, in the aggregate, eighty percent (80%) of their base salaries for the Fiscal Year if the Company achieves its target performance metrics in the Fiscal Year, with the opportunity to earn up to a maximum of two (2) times their target awards to the extent the Company exceeds its target performance metrics in the Fiscal Year. Upon completion of the Fiscal Year, the Compensation Committee will determine the extent to which the Company’s performance metrics for the Fiscal Year were attained, review the CEO’s recommended payouts under the Incentive Plan, and approve any awards made under the Incentive Plan. In addition, the Compensation Committee has discretion to approve the issuance of the Company’s common stock in lieu of cash for all, or a part of, an award that is made under the Incentive Plan and to make other adjustments in extraordinary circumstances.
