PROPOSAL NO. 3
ADVISORY VOTE ON NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

Board Recommendation:

"FOR" the approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the compensation of our Named Executive Officers as described in the section of this Proxy Statement entitled "Compensation Discussion and Analysis."

The primary objective of our executive compensation program is to compensate our executive officers in a manner that will attract, retain, and motivate talented executives with the skills needed to manage a complex and growing business in a competitive industry, while creating long-term value for our stockholders. The Talent & Compensation Committee seeks to design our executive compensation program in a manner that reflects direct alignment between the compensation opportunity provided to our executives and the achievement of our strategic objectives.

Consistent with our strategic objectives for fiscal year 2022, when designing our executive compensation program for the year, the Talent & Compensation Committee focused on continuing to build and retain our executive team, while incentivizing our executive officers to focus on increasing revenue, enhancing profitability and creating long-term value for our stockholders.

When establishing our executive compensation program, the Talent & Compensation Committee is guided by the following four principles:

•Pay for performance by having a significant portion of compensation earned based on the achievement of performance-based conditions.

•Align interests of executives with stockholders by tying a significant portion of compensation to performance that creates long-term value for our stockholders.

•Attract and retain executives with the background and experience necessary to lead the organization and achieve our strategic objectives.

•Reward achievement by offering incentives for achieving short-term and long-term financial goals that are directly tied to the achievement of strategic objectives.

Please refer to the section of this Proxy Statement titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” for additional information.

OUR BUSINESS AND STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES

Long-Term Strategy and Growth

We remain committed to our long-term strategies, which have been the primary drivers of our success in recent years. Our strategic framework includes efforts to:

•Accelerate global consumer adoption of the HOKA brand and increase its market share;

•Further diversify the UGG brand's product offerings, geographic and seasonal mix of business, and drive brand heat through marketing initiatives and strategic distribution;

•Adopt technology and analytical tools to further enhance our capabilities to support our evolving business, including expanding our digital marketing and e-commerce platforms; and

•Invest in infrastructure required to support our key growth initiatives globally, including investment in talent as well as distribution and logistical needs.

We intend to continue investing strategically in key identified areas of growth within our brand portfolio. We remain committed to delivering long-term stockholder value through the continued execution of our strategies.

iii

KEY CORPORATE GOVERNANCE CHANGES

Board Refreshment

We continuously evaluate our Board composition to ensure it is structured to best position us to achieve our long-term objectives and create stockholder value. Over the last several years we have strategically focused on refreshing our Board composition, enhancing Board and committee leadership and improving Board diversity. Our efforts have resulted in a number of key changes, including the following:

•In June 2020, Victor Luis was appointed as a member of our Board.

•In June 2020, Juan R. Figuereo was appointed Chair of the Audit & Risk Management Committee.

•In February 2021, Maha S. Ibrahim was appointed as a member of our Board.

•In September 2021, David A. Burwick was appointed as a member of our Board.

Please refer to the section of this Proxy Statement titled “Corporate Governance” for additional information.

ESG Highlights

The achievement of environmental, social and governance, or ESG, initiatives is a crucial part of our strategic objectives and corporate culture. We strive to do good and do great while minimizing our environmental impact and employing socially conscious operations. In the last year, we have continued to amplify our ESG program and are committed to maintaining open and interactive dialogue on ESG matters with our stakeholders to ensure their views are actively considered. The tables below reflect a select group of highlights from our ESG program during fiscal year 2022.

Environmental

•We filed science-based targets with the Science-Based Target Initiative.

•We sourced the vast majority of our leather supplies from Leather Working Group-certified tanneries, which promote sustainable and environmentally friendly business practices within the leather industry.

•We established a long-term grant with the Savory Institute to support regenerative farming practices on sheep farms in Australia, influencing over 200,000 acres and 40 farms.

Social

•We improved BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) representation among U.S. leaders (director and above) to 21%, up from 12% two years ago, as we make progress towards our target of 25% by fiscal year 2027.

•Our employees volunteered over 14,000 hours.

•We promoted gender quality and education with our supply chain partners through our partnership with the Business for Social Responsibility's HERproject, which positively impacts the well-being of women through workplace-based education.

Governance

•We continued to ensure diverse perspectives are reflected on our Board, which includes four female directors and six directors from underrepresented communities.

•We made governance changes to promote Board and committee oversight of corporate culture, human capital management, and ESG-related matters.

•We refreshed our Code of Ethics for directors and employees, as well as our Ethical Supply Chain Code of Conduct for our supply chain business partners, to ensure we continue to lead with our governance approach.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND VOTING

The following questions and answers are intended to briefly address potential questions that our stockholders may have regarding this Proxy Statement and the Annual Meeting. They are also intended to provide our stockholders with certain information that is required to be provided under the rules and regulations of the SEC. These questions and answers may not address all of the questions that are important to you as a stockholder. If you have additional questions about this Proxy Statement or the Annual Meeting, please refer to the question titled "Whom should I contact with other questions?" below.

Q:    When and where will the Annual Meeting be held?

A:     The Annual Meeting will be held on Monday, September 12, 2022, at 1:00 p.m. Pacific Time. The Annual Meeting will be conducted entirely online via a live webcast. Our stockholders may participate in the Annual Meeting by visiting: www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/DECK2022. You will need a 16-digit control number to attend and participate in the live webcast of the Annual Meeting. Please refer to the question titled "How can I vote my shares?" for information on obtaining your 16-digit control number.

Q:    What proposals am I being asked to vote upon at the Annual Meeting?

A:The proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meeting, and our Board's recommendation with respect to each proposal, are as follows:

NUMBER	PROPOSAL	BOARD VOTING RECOMMENDATION
Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors	Elect ten director nominees to serve until the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2023, or until their successors are duly elected and qualified	"FOR" EACH DIRECTOR NOMINEE
Proposal No. 2: Ratification of Selection of Accounting Firm	Ratify the selection of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2023	"FOR"
Proposal No. 3: Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation	Approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of our Named Executive Officers, as described in the section of this Proxy Statement titled "Compensation Discussion and Analysis"	"FOR"

Q:    Why did I receive these proxy materials?

A:     We are providing this Proxy Statement in connection with the solicitation by our Board of Directors of proxies to be voted at the Annual Meeting, or at any postponements or adjournments thereof. This Proxy Statement contains important information for you to consider when deciding how to vote on the matters brought before the Annual Meeting. You are invited to attend the Annual Meeting to vote on the proposals described in this Proxy Statement. However, you do not need to attend the Annual Meeting to vote your shares. Instead, you may vote your shares using one of the other voting methods described in this Proxy Statement.

Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we encourage you to read this Proxy Statement and submit your proxy or voting instructions as soon as possible to ensure your representation at the Annual Meeting.

Q:    Why did I receive a notice in the mail regarding the Internet availability of proxy materials?

A:     Instead of mailing printed copies to each of our stockholders, we have elected to provide access to the proxy materials over the Internet under the Securities and Exchange Commission's, or the SEC's, "notice and access" rules. These rules allow us to make our stockholders aware of the Annual Meeting and the availability of the proxy materials by sending a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, or the Notice, which provides instructions on how to access the full set of proxy materials through the Internet or make a request to have printed proxy materials delivered by mail. Accordingly, on or about July 29, 2022, we mailed the Notice to each of our stockholders. The Notice contains instructions on how to access the proxy materials, including this Proxy Statement and our Annual Report, each of which are available at www.proxyvote.com. The Notice also provides instructions on how to vote your shares.

2

Q:    Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?

A:    Only our stockholders at the close of business on July 14, 2022, or the Record Date, will be entitled to attend and vote at the Annual Meeting. On the Record Date, there were 26,531,046 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Each share of common stock issued and outstanding on the Record Date is entitled to one vote on any matter to be voted upon by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting.

•Holders of Record - If, on the Record Date, your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare, then you are a "holder of record." As a holder of record, you may vote at the virtual Annual Meeting, or you may vote by proxy. If you are a holder of record and you indicate when voting that you wish to vote as recommended by our Board, or if you submit a vote by proxy without giving specific voting instructions, then the proxyholders will vote your shares as recommended by our Board on all matters described in this Proxy Statement. Thomas Garcia and Steven J. Fasching, the designated proxyholders, are members of our management.

•Beneficial Owners - If, on the Record Date, your shares were held in an account at a bank, broker, dealer, or other nominee, then you are the "beneficial owner" of shares held in "street name" and this Proxy Statement is being made available to you by that nominee. The nominee holding your account is considered the holder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your nominee on how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the holder of record, you may not vote your shares at the Annual Meeting unless you request and obtain a valid "legal proxy" or obtain a 16-digit control number from your nominee. Please contact your nominee directly for additional information.

Q:    What is the quorum requirement for the Annual Meeting?

A: The presence at the Annual Meeting, virtually (even if not voting) or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all the shares of our common stock entitled to be voted at the Annual Meeting, will constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. We will treat shares of common stock represented by a properly voted proxy, including shares for which authority is withheld or that a stockholder abstains from voting, as well as broker non-votes, as present at the Annual Meeting for the purposes of determining the existence of a quorum. If a quorum is not present, the Annual Meeting will be adjourned until a quorum is obtained.

Q:    What are the voting requirements to approve each of the proposals, and what happens if I do not vote?

A: The voting requirements to approve each of the proposals to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting, as well as the effects of abstentions and broker non-votes on each of the proposals, are as follows:

PROPOSAL	VOTING REQUIREMENT	EFFECT OF ABSTENTIONS(2)	EFFECT OF BROKER NON-VOTES(3)
Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors	Each director nominee in an uncontested election(1) will be elected by a majority of the votes cast by the shares present virtually or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the election of directors at the Annual Meeting (assuming that a quorum is present). A "majority of the votes cast" means that the number of votes "FOR" a director nominee must exceed 50% of the total votes cast in the election of directors.	A "WITHHOLD" vote with respect to a director nominee will not count as a vote cast for that nominee, will not be included in the total number of votes cast, and thus will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.	Broker non-votes will not count as votes cast on this proposal and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.
Proposal No. 2: Ratification of Selection of Accounting Firm	Requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares present virtually or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the proposal at the Annual Meeting (assuming that a quorum is present).	An "ABSTAIN" vote will be included in the total number of shares present and entitled to vote on this proposal, and will have the same effect as a vote "AGAINST" this proposal.	Because a bank, broker, dealer or other nominee may generally vote without instructions on this proposal, we do not expect any broker non-votes to result for this proposal.
Proposal No. 3: Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation	Requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares present virtually or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the proposal at the Annual Meeting (assuming that a quorum is present).	An "ABSTAIN" vote will be included in the total number of shares present and entitled to vote on this proposal, and will have the same effect as a vote "AGAINST" this proposal.	Broker non-votes will not count as shares present and entitled to vote on this proposal and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.

(1)An "uncontested election" is an election in which the number of director nominees is not greater than the number of directors to be elected. A "contested election" is an election in which the number of director nominees nominated by (i) our Board, (ii) any stockholder,

3

or (iii) a combination of our Board and any stockholder, exceeds the number of directors to be elected. In a contested election, directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the shares present virtually or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the election of directors at the Annual Meeting.

(2)You may vote to "WITHHOLD" authority for one or more director nominees and may "ABSTAIN" from voting on one or more of the other proposals described in this Proxy Statement. Shares for which authority is withheld or that a stockholder abstains from voting will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting.

(3)Pursuant to applicable NYSE rules, if you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and do not provide the nominee that holds your shares with specific voting instructions, the nominee may generally vote in its discretion on “routine” matters (such as Proposal No. 2). However, if the nominee that holds your shares does not receive instructions from you on how to vote your shares on a “non-routine” matter (such as Proposal Nos. 1 and 3), it will be unable to vote your shares on that matter. When this occurs, it is generally referred to as a “broker non-vote.” Broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting.

Q:    What happens if a director nominee fails to receive a majority vote in an uncontested election at the Annual Meeting?

A:Each incumbent director standing for reelection at the Annual Meeting has tendered an irrevocable letter of resignation, effective upon such incumbent director not receiving a majority vote at the Annual Meeting and acceptance of such resignation by our Board. Our Board must accept or reject such resignation within 90 days following certification of the stockholder vote in accordance with the procedures established by our Amended and Restated Bylaws, or our Bylaws. If a director’s resignation offer is not accepted by our Board, that director will continue to serve until our annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2023 or his or her successor is duly elected and qualified, or until such director’s earlier death, resignation, or removal.

Any director nominee who is not an incumbent director and who fails to receive a majority vote in an uncontested election will not be elected as a director, and a vacancy will be left on our Board. Our Board, in its sole discretion, may either fill a vacancy resulting from a director nominee not receiving a majority vote pursuant to our Bylaws or decrease the size of our Board to eliminate the vacancy. All director nominees are incumbent directors standing for reelection at the Annual Meeting.

Q:    Could other matters be decided at the Annual Meeting?

A:     As of the date of this Proxy Statement, we are not aware of any business to be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting other than the matters described in this Proxy Statement. If, however, other matters are properly presented at the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote in accordance with their discretion with respect to those matters.

Q:    How can I vote my shares?

A:    Your shares can be voted as follows:

•    Holders of Record - Holders of record can vote by proxy or by attending the Annual Meeting where votes can be submitted electronically via live webcast.

Q:    What can I do if I change my mind after I vote my shares?

A:You may change your vote at any time before the polls are closed at the Annual Meeting.

•    Holders of Record - If you are a holder of record, you may change your vote by (i) providing written notice of revocation to Deckers Outdoor Corporation, 250 Coromar Drive, Goleta, California 93117, Attention: Corporate Secretary, (ii) executing a subsequent proxy using any of the voting methods discussed above (subject to the deadlines for voting with respect to each method), or (iii) attending the Annual Meeting and voting electronically via live webcast. However, simply attending the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.

•    Beneficial Owners - If you are a beneficial owner of your shares and you have instructed your nominee to vote your shares, you may change your vote by following the directions received from your nominee to change those voting instructions, or by attending the Annual meeting and voting via live webcast, which can be accomplished as described above.

Subject to any revocation, all shares represented by properly executed proxies will be voted in accordance with the instructions on the applicable proxy, or, if no instructions are given, in accordance with the recommendations of our Board of Directors as described above.

Q:    Who is paying for the cost of this proxy solicitation?

A:The solicitation of proxies is made on behalf of our Board and all the expenses of soliciting proxies from stockholders will be borne by us. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by use of the mail, our directors, officers, and employees may communicate with stockholders personally or by email, telephone, or otherwise for the purpose of soliciting such proxies. No additional compensation will be paid to any such persons for such solicitation, although we may reimburse them for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such solicitation. We will reimburse banks, brokers, dealers and other nominees for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in forwarding solicitation material to beneficial owners of shares held of record by such persons. The total estimated cost of the solicitation of proxies is approximately $140,000.

Q:    How may I obtain an additional copy of the proxy materials? How may I reduce the number of copies our household receives?

A:We have adopted a procedure called "householding," which the SEC has approved. Under this procedure, we are delivering a single copy of the Notice and, if applicable, this Proxy Statement and the Annual Report, to multiple stockholders who share the same address unless we have received contrary instructions from one or more of the stockholders. This procedure reduces our printing and mailing costs. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to be able to access and receive separate proxy materials. Upon written or oral request, we will promptly deliver a separate copy of the Notice and, if applicable, this Proxy Statement and the Annual Report, to any stockholder at a shared address to which we delivered a single copy of any of these documents. To receive a separate copy of the Notice and, if applicable, this Proxy Statement or the Annual Report, or if you wish to receive separate copies in the future, please contact: Deckers Outdoor Corporation, 250 Coromar Drive, Goleta, California 93117, Attention: Corporate Secretary, Telephone: (805) 967-7611.

In addition, if you are currently a stockholder sharing an address with another stockholder and wish to receive only one copy of future proxy materials for your household, please contact us using the contact information set forth above. Stockholders who are beneficial owners of shares held in street name may contact their bank, broker, dealer or other nominee to request information about householding.

Q:    Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

A:    We will announce preliminary voting results with respect to each proposal at the Annual Meeting. In accordance with SEC rules, final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days following the Annual Meeting, unless final results are not known at that time, in which case preliminary voting results will be published within four business days of the Annual Meeting and final voting results will be published once we know them.

Q:      Where else can I find these proxy materials?

A:      This Proxy Statement and the Annual Report are available under "SEC Filings" at ir.deckers.com. Other information contained on or accessed through our website does not constitute part of this Proxy Statement and you should not consider this other information in deciding how to vote your shares. References to our website address in this Proxy Statement are inactive textual references only.

Q:    Whom should I contact with other questions?

A:    If you have additional questions about this Proxy Statement or the Annual Meeting, or if you would like additional copies of this Proxy Statement, please contact: Deckers Outdoor Corporation, 250 Coromar Drive, Goleta, California 93117, Attention: Corporate Secretary, Telephone: (805) 967-7611.

Summary of Qualifications and Skills of Directors

As part of our Board evaluation and director selection processes, the Corporate Governance Committee maintains a director skills matrix. When evaluating potential nominees, the Committee and the Board take into account the diversity of experiences and backgrounds represented on our Board. The director skills matrix below summarizes the specific qualifications, attributes, skills and experience of each director nominee that led our Board to conclude that the nominee is qualified to serve on our Board. In fiscal year 2020 we refined the director skills matrix to reflect the qualifications most relevant for our director nominees to support our Company's business and strategic objectives. While each nominee is generally knowledgeable in each of these areas, an “X” in the chart below indicates that the item is a specific qualification, attribute, skill or experience that the director brings to our Board. The lack of an “X” for a particular item does not mean that the director does not possess that qualification, attribute, skill or experience.

Consent to Serve

Each of the persons named above has consented to being named in this Proxy Statement and to serve as a director if elected, and our Board has no reason to believe that any of the nominees will be unable or unwilling to serve as a director. If, however, any nominee withdraws or otherwise becomes unavailable to serve, our Board may decrease the size of our Board, or the proxies may be voted for the election of such other person as a director as our Board may recommend in place of the nominee.

Required Vote

Because this is an uncontested election, the election of our director nominees at the Annual Meeting requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the shares present virtually or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the election of directors at the Annual Meeting (assuming that a quorum is present). A "majority of the votes cast" means the number of shares voted "FOR" a director nominee's election exceeds 50% of the number of votes cast with respect to that director's election.

This proposal is considered a "non-routine" matter under NYSE rules. As a result, a bank, broker, dealer, or other nominee may not vote without instructions on this matter, so there may be broker non-votes in connection with this proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted as votes "FOR" or "AGAINST" a director nominee and will have no effect on the election of directors. If no contrary indication is made, returned proxies will be voted "FOR" each of the director nominees, or in the event that any nominee is unable to serve as a director at the time of the election, returned proxies will be voted "FOR" any nominee who is designated by our Board to fill the vacancy.

BOARD RECOMMENDATION

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE

 "FOR"

THE ELECTION OF EACH OF THE TEN DIRECTOR NOMINEES.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Corporate Governance at Deckers

Corporate governance is managed under the direction of our Board of Directors. Our Board has a long-standing commitment to comprehensive and effective corporate governance practices. Our Board continues to evaluate our governance policies and procedures to ensure that the right mix of individuals is present in our boardroom and to ensure effective oversight of our strategy and management in order to best serve our stockholders. Our Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that set forth the primary framework of governance principles applicable to our Company, a copy of which is available on our website at ir.deckers.com in the Overview section of the Governance tab.

Corporate Governance Elements

Our Board is committed to maintaining the highest standards of corporate governance and has established a strong framework by which our Company is governed. Key elements of our corporate governance framework include:

OUR POLICY OR PRACTICE	DESCRIPTION AND BENEFIT TO OUR STOCKHOLDERS
	STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS
Annual Election of Directors	• Our directors are elected annually, reinforcing their accountability to our stockholders. We do not employ a classified board structure.
Single Class of Outstanding Voting Stock	• Our common stockholders control our Company with equal voting rights.
Majority Voting Standard	• We have a majority voting standard for uncontested director elections.
	BOARD STRUCTURE
Director Independence	• Based on the director independence requirements set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, as well as under applicable SEC and NYSE rules, our Board has determined that each of our directors, other than Mr. Powers, is an "independent director."
Committee Governance	• Our three standing Board Committees: Audit & Risk Management, Talent & Compensation and Corporate Governance, consist exclusively of independent directors and have adopted written charters. Committee composition and charters are reviewed annually by our Board.
Board Leadership and Structure	• Our Corporate Governance Guidelines allow our Board to determine whether to separate or combine the roles of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Currently, Mr. Devine, a member of our Board, serves as our Company's independent Chairman. We believe this is the most appropriate leadership structure for our Company at this time.
Annual Board Self-Evaluations	• The Corporate Governance Committee conducts and oversees annual evaluations of our Board, each Board committee and each individual director, to ensure they are effective and continue to serve the best interests of our stockholders.
Board Oversight of Risk	• Our Board is generally responsible for risk management activities, but has delegated the oversight of risk management to our Audit & Risk Management Committee. Our full Board regularly engages in discussions of the most significant risks we face and how these risks are managed.
	EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Annual Say-on-Pay Vote	• Annually, our stockholders have the opportunity to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of our Named Executive Officers, which we sometimes refer to as our Say-on-Pay Vote. This affords our stockholders the ability to provide routine feedback on our compensation program.

Corporate Governance Principles

Pursuant to Delaware law and our Bylaws, our business, property and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board of Directors. Thus, our Board is the ultimate decision-making body of our Company, except with respect to those matters reserved for our stockholders.

Our Board selects our Chief Executive Officer, and works together with our Chief Executive Officer to select our senior management team, which is charged with the day-to-day operation of our business. Members of our Board are kept informed about our business through discussions with our Chief Executive Officer and other senior management personnel, including by attending brand sales meetings and industry events, participating in periodic informal telephonic meetings, and reviewing materials provided to them, as well as by attending formal meetings of our Board and its committees. Having selected the senior

18

management team, our Board acts as an adviser and counselor to senior management, monitors its performance and proposes or makes changes to the senior management team when it deems necessary or appropriate.

Board of Directors Meetings

BOARD OF DIRECTORS	Meetings in Fiscal Year 2022: 8
• Each of our directors attended at least 75% of Board meetings and meetings of the Board committees on which he or she served during his or her term.
• Time is scheduled for our independent directors to meet in an executive session at every Board meeting.
• Our Corporate Governance Guidelines state that directors are expected to attend each of our annual meetings of stockholders. All ten members of our Board attended the annual meeting of stockholders held in September 2021.

Director Independence

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines, as well as applicable NYSE rules, require that our Board be comprised of a majority of directors who satisfy the criteria for independence set forth in the NYSE rules. These guidelines help ensure that the interests of our Board and management are aligned with those of our stockholders, that conflicts of interest are avoided, and that we are in compliance with applicable SEC and NYSE rules. An independent director is one who our Board affirmatively determines has no material relationship with our Company (either directly or as a partner, stockholder, or officer of an organization that has a relationship with our Company) and otherwise meets the requirements of the NYSE rules.

Based on the director independence requirements set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, as well as in the applicable NYSE rules, our Board has determined that each of our directors, other than Mr. Powers, is an "independent director." In addition, all members of the Audit & Risk Management Committee, Talent & Compensation Committee, and Corporate Governance Committee meet the independence standards set forth in applicable SEC and NYSE rules.

Board Leadership Structure

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines allow the Board to determine whether to separate or combine the roles of the chairman and chief executive officer. Our Board believes it is important to maintain flexibility in our Board leadership structure, depending on our Board's composition and our business and strategic needs at the time. However, our Board also firmly supports having an "independent director" serve in a Board leadership position at all times.

The roles of the chairman and chief executive officer are separate. Our Board continues to believe that this leadership structure allows our Chief Executive Officer to focus on the day-to-day operation and management of our Company, while allowing our Chairman to focus on leading the Board in overseeing the interests of our Company and stockholders.

Board Committees

Our Board of Directors has three standing committees: the Audit & Risk Management Committee, the Talent & Compensation Committee, and the Corporate Governance Committee. Each member of each of the committees is an "independent director" for purposes of applicable SEC and NYSE rules. Each of our committees has a written charter that describes its purpose, membership, meeting structure, and responsibilities. A copy of each committee's charter is available on our website at ir.deckers.com in the Overview section of the Governance tab. These charters are reviewed annually by each committee, with any recommended changes approved by our Board. The Audit & Risk Management Committee charter was amended in September 2021, and both the Talent & Compensation Committee charter and the Corporate Governance Committee charter were amended in January 2022.

Summary information regarding the membership, meetings, and primary responsibilities of each of the three standing committees of our Board for fiscal year 2022 are listed below:

Nominating Procedures and Criteria

Among its functions, the Corporate Governance Committee considers and approves nominees for election to our Board. We view board succession as an ongoing process and are regularly identifying, evaluating and pursuing prospective candidates. In addition to the candidates proposed by our Board or identified by the Committee, the Committee considers candidates for director proposed by our stockholders, provided such recommendations are made in accordance with the procedures set forth in our Bylaws. Stockholder nominations that meet the qualification criteria referred to below will receive the same consideration as nominations made by the Committee.

Essential criteria for all candidates considered by the Corporate Governance Committee are discussed in the section of this Proxy Statement titled "Qualifications for All Directors."In evaluating candidates for certain Board positions, the Committee also evaluates additional criteria, as reflected in the section of this Proxy Statement titled "Specific Qualifications and Skills Represented on Our Board."

In selecting nominees for our Board, the Corporate Governance Committee evaluates the general criteria referred to above, identifies the specialized criteria for which the Committee has determined there is a need, and considers the candidate's ability to meet the required criteria and contribute to the success of our Company. In evaluating an existing director for reelection, in addition to assessing the criteria referred to above, the Committee considers a variety of factors, including attendance at Board and committee meetings, independence, length of service, previous performance, and overall contributions to our Company.

The director nominees for the Annual Meeting have been recommended by the Corporate Governance Committee, as well as by our Board of Directors.

Management Succession and Talent Development

The Talent & Compensation Committee, pursuant to its charter, is responsible for overseeing the management continuity planning process. As part of that responsibility, the Committee reviews and evaluates the development and succession plan relating to our and our executive officers, including considerations of career paths and attracting and retaining high-quality talent. The Board is responsible for these actions with respect to our CEO. The Committee works with the Board to assess whether we have the management talent needed to successfully pursue our business objectives. The Board also regularly considers the competencies necessary for our Chief Executive Officer to support our strategies for long-term success.

Risk Governance Structure

Our Board has overall responsibility for risk oversight. The Board members provide objective, independent oversight of risk and focus on the most significant risks facing the Company.

Board Role in Risk Oversight

•Periodically reviews or assesses the effectiveness of our Company’s enterprise risk management programs and framework, including the processes for identifying, assessing, prioritizing, and responding to our enterprise-wide risk exposures, to ensure that robust risk management strategies are in place.

21

designed to bring to the Board’s attention our most material risks for evaluation, including strategic, operational, regulatory, and compliance risks.

•Receives regular updates from management regarding our organization’s portfolio of risk and engages in discussions to understand and assess our overall risk management activities.

None of our executive officers currently serves, or during the past year has served, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee (or other committee serving a similar purpose) of any entity that has an executive officer serving on our Board or the Talent & Compensation Committee. In addition, none of the Talent & Compensation Committee members had any relationship, or participated in any transaction, with our Company during fiscal year 2022 that requires disclosure under SEC rules.

22

Communications with Directors

Stockholders and other interested parties may communicate with the Chairman of our Board, the Chair of any Board committee, with our independent directors as a group, or with any individual director, by writing to any such person or group. Communications should be sent to the following address:

Deckers Outdoor Corporation

Attn.: Corporate Secretary

250 Coromar Drive

Goleta, California 93117

Communications are distributed to our Board, or to any individual director, depending on the facts and circumstances described in the communication. Our Board has requested that certain items that are unrelated to the duties and responsibilities of our Board should be excluded, including the following: junk mail and mass mailings, product inquiries or complaints, new product suggestions, resumes and other forms of job inquiries, surveys, and business solicitations or advertisements. In addition, material that is unduly hostile, threatening, illegal or similarly unsuitable will not be distributed, except that any communication that is not distributed will be made available to any director upon request.

Code of Ethics and Accounting and Finance Code of Ethics

Our Board has adopted a Code of Ethics to assist our officers, directors and other employees in complying with legal and regulatory requirements and maintaining the highest standards of ethical conduct. All of our officers, directors and employees must carry out their duties in accordance with the policies set forth in the Code of Ethics and with applicable laws and regulations. The Code of Ethics complies with the requirements set forth in applicable NYSE rules.

Our Board has also adopted a separate Accounting and Finance Code of Ethics which focuses on the financial reporting process and applies to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Controller (and other employees serving similar functions). The Accounting and Finance Code of Ethics is intended to qualify as a "code of ethics" under applicable SEC rules and to satisfy the standards of ethics and compliance programs under applicable NYSE rules.

Our Code of Ethics and our Accounting and Finance Code of Ethics are available on our website at ir.deckers.com in the Overview section of the Governance tab. To the extent required by law, any amendments to or waivers of any provision of the Code of Ethics or the Accounting and Finance Code of Ethics will be promptly disclosed publicly on our website.

Stockholder Engagement

We maintain an ongoing, proactive outreach effort with our stockholders. We believe our stockholders, as the owners of our Company, have important views and insights into our business operations, and we routinely seek to engage with our stockholders to ensure their views are shared with our Board, and actively considered in discussions of our strategic direction. We highly value stockholder input and have consistently demonstrated our commitment to open and interactive dialogue with our stockholders. Our stockholder outreach program is led by a cross-functional team that includes members of our Investor Relations, ESG, and Legal teams.

In fiscal year 2022, as part of our stockholder engagement efforts to solicit feedback and share perspectives we reached out to holders of approximately 48% of our shares. This year, we addressed the following topics: our corporate governance framework, executive compensation practices, and our ESG program, including highlights of our DEI initiatives. The investors we spoke with were largely supportive of our current governance practices and our ESG activities. The invaluable feedback and insights we received during our engagement were shared with the full Board.

While our Board has a fiduciary responsibility to our stockholders and represents their interests, our management team is primarily responsible for investor relations. Throughout the year, our management team regularly meets with current stockholders, prospective investors, and investment analysts. These meetings serve to engage stockholders and solicit feedback on topics relevant to our Company's performance and strategy. Our management team provides regular updates to our Board regarding stockholder feedback on these topics.

Please refer to the section of this Proxy Statement titled “Stockholder Feedback on Executive Compensation” for more information on how our stockholders impacted the evolution of our executive compensation program for fiscal year 2022.

Our People and Our Culture

At our Company, our purpose is to positively impact the world by uniting purposeful brands with diverse people driven to succeed and create change.Our five key values, which guide our journey onward together, to improve our business and create a better world around it, help hold us accountable to deliver on this purpose:

23

Our values define our Company and serve as the driving force behind how we work together and with our customers, our consumers, our partners, our suppliers, and our communities. We also have detailed ethics and compliance policies that instill a commitment to ethical behavior and legal compliance across our organization. Through our open-door policy and culture, employees are encouraged to approach their managers if they believe violations of standards or policies have occurred, and are also able to make confidential and anonymous reports using an online or telephone hotline hosted by an independent third-party provider.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

We prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion, or DEI, at our Company and believe that creating a diverse and inclusive workplace is critical to creating an organization where all employees can come as they are. We believe that the inclusion of diverse perspectives, and amplifying the voices of underrepresented communities brings a unique set of experiences, opinions, and thoughts on critical issues that helps enhance our business and drives better outcomes.

Our Code of Ethics, on which we train our employees biennially, as well as our annual Creating Change Report, codifies these values and our commitment to DEI. We have a robust collection of programs designed to create a more inclusive workplace, as well as policies and practices aimed at increasing diversity. We have implemented a comprehensive, global strategy for DEI, including the following:

Our brands have committed to representing at least 60% BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and People of Color) and LGBTQIA+, and diverse body types and abilities in their marketing campaigns.	We have created a framework for the creation of Employee Resource Groups, or ERGs, which are formed around common interests, background or characteristics including gender, race, ethnicity, and other affinities. We have nine ERGs with approximately 300 employee members as of March 31, 2022.	We improved BIPOC representation among U.S. leaders (director and above) to 21%, up from 12% two years ago, as we make progress towards our target of 25% by fiscal year 2027.
We are continuing to utilize software that optimizes job descriptions to help ensure a more diverse applicant pool, as well as redacting certain resume information that may lead to unconscious bias.	We are expanding the pool from which we source our talent, including partnering with Historically Black Colleges and Universities, as well as local and national professional organizations.	We have joined The Valuable 500, an initiative comprised of companies committed to disability inclusion, the Civic Alliance, a nonpartisan business coalition that champions civic participation, and we are part of the Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index which helps bring transparency to gender-related policies and practices at publicly listed companies around the world.
All director-level and above positions are interviewed by a panel that includes individuals from underrepresented communities.	We have deployed mandatory anti-racism and implicit bias training, as well as a suite of additional learning and development resources available to employees, including Inclusive Interviewing and Selection for managers, Disability Awareness & Inclusion, and Applying DEI Practices to Product Lifecycle, among others aimed at increasing employee acumen about DEI-focused topics.	We have launched a global mentorship program designed to provide our existing talent with opportunities to build deeper connections, empower skill and career development, and foster a greater sense of belonging by connecting employees across the globe.

Our Board values DEI as we continue to enhance our Board's diversity and skill sets. In addition, our Board is regularly kept apprised of our Company's DEI employee engagement efforts, targets and commitments.

24

Charitable Giving and Volunteering

At our Company, our charitable contributions, product donations, and employee volunteer efforts are an essential part of our culture. Each fiscal year, we contribute to our local communities through monetary donations, volunteer efforts and in-kind donations. During fiscal year 2022, we donated to various non-profit organizations, primarily to organizations focused on DEI initiatives, environmental impact mitigation, and community support. We also continued our 'Art of Kindness' events, where employees volunteer during a week-long event in our local communities multiple times during the fiscal year. Further, our supply chain partners followed our lead and volunteered in their local communities during fiscal year 2022. Our strategic giving and community-engagement efforts continue to be aligned with our sustainable development goals, or SDGs, and DEI strategy, with a focus on social and racial justice, the environment, uplifting youth, education, and community support.

	$3.41 Million Amount donated to various non-profit organizations during fiscal year 2022
	Areas of Focus for Giving DEI, the environment, uplifting youth, education, and community support
	Over 14,000 Hours our employees volunteered in fiscal year 2022
	1.285 Million Number of pairs of shoes donated, since the inception of our partnerships with non-profit organizations who distribute shoes to those in need

Environmental, Social, and Governance

As a global leader in designing, marketing, and distributing innovative footwear, apparel, and accessories, our worldwide reach and impact is significant. We believe consumers are increasingly buying brands that advance sustainable business practices and deliver quality products while striving for minimal environmental impact by employing socially conscious operations. Our sustainability policies and strategies are aligned with, and informed by, our ongoing efforts with multi-stakeholder initiatives, which involve our stockholders, employees, suppliers, and our customers, as well as other brands and non-governmental organizations. Through our holistic environmental, social and governance program, which has been in existence since 2010, we are committed to advancing our sustainable business initiatives. As a result of our efforts, we have been recognized by Newsweek as one of America’s Most Responsible Companies and included on the Bloomberg Gender Equality Index during fiscal year 2022.

ESG Oversight

Our Board of Directors, through its Corporate Governance Committee, which is comprised of four independent directors, oversees our ESG efforts. Our Corporate Governance Committee and Board of Directors regularly receive updates on the status of our ESG program. Our Chief Administrative Officer, or CAO, is responsible for the day-to-day management of our ESG program. The program’s execution is driven by our leadership team and various cross-functional teams including our ethical sourcing, facilities, DCs, brands, innovation, materials, and supply chain teams.

Our ESG program aligns our internal teams with our SDGs and establishes policies to encourage our partners and suppliers to employ sustainable business practices. We annually assess risks related to ESG issues as part of our overall enterprise risk management approach. In addition, our internal audit team provides periodic targeted reviews of our ESG-related policies and procedures to the Audit & Risk Management Committee.

Sustainable Development Goals

Achieving measurable sustainability success is critical to our future economic and business growth, and we work to establish SDGs that we believe will make the most significant impact for our business, our stockholders, and the communities in which we operate. We are a member of the United Nations Global Compact, or UNGC, the world’s largest voluntary corporate sustainability initiative. This membership requires an annual statement of progress, which is reflected in our Creating Change Report. Our CAO identifies specific SDGs established by the UNGC, which we adopt to guide our efforts to address environmental and social challenges. Our SDGs are currently focused on categories where we believe we can make substantial impacts.

25

TOPIC	DECKERS SDG	UNGC SDG
MATERIALS	Maximize the amount of preferred materials in our products
WASTE	Sustainably reduce waste generated at our facilities and partner facilities through refuse, reduction, recycling, and reuse.
WATER	Reduce water consumption and improve water quality throughout our operations and the communities in which we operate.
CLIMATE AND CLEAN ENERGY	Reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions throughout our operations.

Climate and Clean Energy

In fiscal year 2022, as part of our ESG program efforts, we made great progress toward each of our SDG goals but focused on the amplification of our climate and clean energy efforts. Below are some climate and clean energy focuses and commitments:

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Named Executive Officers

The following table sets forth our NEOs in fiscal year 2022, the current positions they hold and the dates they were appointed to those positions:

NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER	CURRENT POSITION AND DATE APPOINTED
Dave Powers	• Chief Executive Officer and Director - June 2016 • President - March 2015 • Principal Executive Officer
Steven J. Fasching	• Chief Financial Officer - July 2018 • Principal Financial and Accounting Officer
David E. Lafitte	• Former Chief Operating Officer - February 2015 (Transitioned in June 2022)
Stefano Caroti	• President of Omni-Channel - November 2015
Wendy Yang	• Former President of Fashion Lifestyle - February 2016 (Transitioned in May 2022)

Fiscal Year 2022 Financial and Operational Highlights:

We delivered strong results in fiscal year 2022 from both financial and operational perspectives, including the following:

•Total revenue growth of 23.8%, representing an increase of $605 million as compared to the prior year.

•Major contributions from multiple brands including growth of $320 million and $265 million from the HOKA and UGG brands, respectively.

•Global wholesale drove the majority of growth, adding $458 million of incremental volume as compared to the prior year.

•Global direct-to-consumer also drove strong growth, increasing 13.8% over the prior year and 64.7% above two years ago.

•Increased diluted earnings per share by 20.7% to $16.26.

Our strong financial performance over the past three fiscal years is illustrated by the financial metrics in the graphs below. For each fiscal year, the information presented is for the 12-month period ended March 31.

Our performance-based compensation for fiscal year 2022 relied on these performance metrics to directly tie executive compensation to Company performance in furtherance of our pay-for-performance philosophy. For example, our annual cash incentive awards used consolidated operating income and revenue (and business unit operating income and revenue for certain executives with business unit oversight responsibilities), and our long-term incentive plan awards used pre-tax income and revenue as the underlying performance metrics.

31

Our Business and Strategic Objectives

We intend to continue investing strategically in key identified areas of growth within our brand portfolio. Specifically we will invest in the following:

•The HOKA brand, generating increased awareness and supporting the brand globally as it builds market share with core running styles and expands into incremental categories of performance footwear.

•The UGG brand, continuing to focus on growth outside of Women's core classic boots, including Women's footwear categories that are less seasonally dependent, Men's footwear, and apparel. We also intend to drive brand heat in the UGG brand's international markets through localized marketing initiatives paired with strategic distribution.

•Technology and analytical tools that will further enhance our capabilities as we look to support our evolving business, including opportunities to connect with consumers through digital avenues as well as expanding our e-commerce platform.

•Infrastructure required to support our key growth initiatives globally, including investment in talent to build new capabilities as well as distribution and logistical needs as our organization continues to scale in size.

We intend to closely monitor the planned investments in our business in the near term to enable the organization to weather the impacts from ongoing supply chain disruptions, the residual impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, and an increasingly challenging macroeconomic environment characterized by volatility in the global financial markets, inflationary pressures, rising interest rates and recessionary concerns. We also intend to continue to focus on the achievement of ESG initiatives by ensuring our ESG program is overseen by our Board and leadership team, minimizing our environmental impact and employing socially conscious operations, and maintaining open and interactive dialogue on ESG matters with our stakeholders.

Our Compensation Program Objective and Philosophy

The primary objective of our executive compensation program is to compensate our executive officers in a manner that will attract, retain and motivate talented executives with the skills needed to manage a complex and growing business in a competitive industry, while creating long-term value for our stockholders. In furtherance of this objective, the Talent & Compensation Committee, which we refer to as the Committee for purposes of this section, seeks to design our executive compensation program in a manner that reflects direct alignment between the compensation opportunity provided to our executives and the achievement of our strategic objectives.

When establishing our executive compensation program each year, the Committee is generally guided by the following four principles that it believes align closely with our compensation objectives:

•Pay for performance by ensuring that a significant portion of compensation is made available to our executives in the form of variable, performance-based components.

•Align interests of executives with stockholders by tying a significant portion of compensation to Company performance that creates long-term value for our stockholders and is correlated to increases in the value of our stock price.

•Reward achievement by offering meaningful and appropriate incentives for achieving both short-term and long-term Company financial goals that have been established by the Committee that are directly tied to the achievement of strategic objectives.

•Attract and retain executives with the background and experience necessary to lead the organization and achieve our strategic objectives.

When designing our executive compensation program for fiscal year 2022, the Committee focused on continuing to build and retain our executive team, while providing them with incentives to focus on our key strategic initiatives, including increased revenue, enhanced profitability and the creation of long-term value for stockholders. These and other strategic considerations are clearly reflected in the design of our program, which demonstrates strong pay-for-performance alignment.

Fiscal Year 2022 Executive Compensation Highlights

In fiscal year 2022, we implemented an executive compensation program that was designed to focus on our key strategic initiatives. The primary compensation elements under the program include the following:

•Base salaries;

•Annual cash incentive awards, or 2022 Annual Cash Incentive Awards;

•Time-based restricted stock units, or 2022 Time-Based RSUs; and

•Long-term incentive plan performance-based stock units, or 2022 LTIP PSUs.

32

Our fiscal year 2022 executive compensation program was generally similar to that of fiscal year 2021 in terms of compensation objective, philosophy and key elements.

As a result of our strong financial and operational results in fiscal year 2022, the 2022 Annual Cash Incentive Awards, which covered the one-year performance period ended March 31, 2022, were paid out between 106% and 124% of target, and the 2020 LTIP PSUs, which covered the three-year performance period ended March 31, 2022, were paid out at 200% of target, in each case based on Company performance relative to targets established at the beginning of the respective performance measurement periods.

Following a review of compensation data from our new fiscal year 2023 peer group, which reflected the increased size and complexity of our organization, we selectively granted special equity awards. The Committee also deemed these special equity awards to be appropriate to retain key executives in a highly competitive environment and to reward exceptional individual performance. The special equity awards consisted 60% of LTIP PSUs, which vest based on the achievement of pre-tax income and consolidated revenue targets over a three-year period, and 40% of time-vested RSUs, which vest in three equal installments over three years following the grant date, to align the terms with other equity grants made during the fiscal year.

In granting the special equity awards to certain NEOs during fiscal year 2022, the Committee specifically considered the aggregate grant date fair value of all equity awards received by these executives throughout the fiscal year, particularly in light of the new fiscal year 2023 peer group, and concluded that the values were in line with peer group practices.It was also important to the Committee to ensure that a significant portion of the special equity awards were granted in the form of performance-based awards. The Committee expects these types of special awards to be used infrequently. Our Chief Executive Officer was not granted a special equity award.

Stockholder Outreach

We have consistently demonstrated our commitment to stockholder outreach efforts, which has resulted in meaningful, interactive dialogue with our stockholders on a number of significant topics, including our business and strategic objectives, capital allocation strategy, ESG initiatives and corporate governance philosophy, and the performance of our stock. We have also routinely solicited and incorporated stockholder feedback on the design and effectiveness of our executive compensation program. We believe our proactive engagement and response to stockholder feedback, combined with strong pay-for-performance alignment, has resulted in overwhelming stockholder support for our executive compensation program. Indeed, these efforts resulted in 96.7% and 97.5% of the votes cast being voted "FOR" our executive compensation program at our annual meetings of stockholders held in 2021 and 2020, respectively.

In an effort to continue our dialogue with our stockholders in fiscal year 2022, we reached out to investors holding 48% of our shares to solicit their feedback, in particular with respect to topics such as our corporate governance framework, ESG efforts and executive compensation practices. This process highlights our ongoing commitment to our stockholder engagement efforts, which has informed the evolution of our executive compensation program. Our fiscal year 2022 executive compensation program, as described in this section, reflects our ongoing dialogue with our stockholders.

The Committee believes that ongoing, transparent communication with our stockholders is critical to our long-term success, and that the feedback received through our stockholder engagement efforts will continue to contribute to the evolution and enhancement of our executive compensation program. The Committee considers stockholder engagement to be an important part of its decision-making process and plans to continue proactive outreach efforts going forward.

Compensation Program Highlights

The following table sets forth the key components of our executive compensation program for fiscal year 2022, and the underlying philosophy and considerations that provide the basis for our compensation decisions:

COMPENSATION HIGHLIGHTS

PHILOSOPHY AND CONSIDERATIONS

• Pay-for-performance alignment

• We emphasized strong pay-for-performance alignment by providing a significant portion of the overall compensation opportunity for our NEOs in the form of performance-based compensation that is directly tied to the achievement of specific Company financial and operational performance objectives. • Our performance-based compensation is designed to align the interests of our NEOs with those of our stockholders and encourage the achievement of strategic objectives that the Committee believes are critical to our short and long-term success. • For fiscal year 2022, only 11% of the total compensation opportunity for our President and Chief Executive Officer was fixed, while 89% of his total compensation opportunity was directly tied to the achievement of specific performance conditions or otherwise at risk.

33

• Alignment of performance metrics with strategic objectives	• Selecting the appropriate performance metrics for our performance-based awards is critical to achieving our business and strategic objectives, motivating our executives and advancing our pay-for-performance philosophy. • In light of our strategic focus on increased revenue, enhanced profitability and the creation of long-term stockholder value, the Committee selected  (i) consolidated operating income and revenue for all NEOs (and business unit operating income and revenue targets for certain executives with business unit oversight responsibilities) as the performance metrics for our 2022 Annual Cash Incentive Awards, and   (ii) both “pre-tax income” and consolidated revenue for each of fiscal years 2022, 2023 and 2024 as the annual performance metrics for our 2022 LTIP PSUs. • The decision by the Committee to use the consolidated revenue metric for both our 2022 Annual Cash Incentive Awards and our 2022 LTIP PSUs reflects our continued focus on top-line growth.
• Limited overlap in performance conditions	• Our performance metrics involve multiple performance conditions over multiple time periods to ensure our compensation program encourages healthy and sustained growth across our business, while eliminating excessive overlap between the goals. • This approach mitigates against risk associated with our compensation program as it de-emphasizes the impact of any one performance metric or performance period.
• Reference to a "median" pay philosophy	• We have actively and consistently reformulated our executive compensation program to benchmark the target total compensation opportunity for our NEOs at the median compared to our peer group. • In adopting this philosophy, the Committee carefully considered a number of factors, including specific feedback received from our stockholders during our stockholder engagement efforts in prior years.
• Use of PSUs for LTIP awards	• LTIP awards are designed to align the interests of our executives with those of our stockholders through the adoption of performance-based vesting conditions. • Vesting is based on the achievement of profitability and revenue metrics, in each year during a three-year period, that align closely with our strategic objectives. • 100% of the LTIP awards granted during fiscal year 2022 were subject to long-term vesting in order to promote retention of our executives. • The vesting of each LTIP award is also subject to adjustment based upon the application of a total stockholder return, or TSR, modifier, thereby correlating the vesting of the award to total and relative stockholder returns.
• Appropriate mix of equity awards with focus on performance-based vesting	• Approximately 60% of the value of the equity awards granted during fiscal year 2022 vest based on the achievement of Company performance conditions to ensure pay-for-performance alignment, while the remainder of the awards vest based on the achievement of long-term, time-based vesting conditions. • This mix strikes the appropriate balance between compensation incentives and risks.
• Continued focus on executive retention	• While we seek to develop our executive compensation program so that it closely aligns with our pay-for-performance philosophy and rewards achievement of performance goals, this objective must complement other critical objectives, including the retention of key executives. • For fiscal year 2022, approximately 40% of the value of the equity awards granted vest based on the achievement of time-based vesting conditions, which promote executive retention because they vest over a long-term service period. • Consistent with its historical practice, the Committee expects a majority of future equity awards to continue to have performance-based vesting conditions. The Committee also expects to grant special equity awards infrequently.

34

• Consideration of peer group data and advice of our independent compensation consultant • We use peer group compensation data as an initial starting point in making compensation decisions for our executives, including with respect to both the target level of compensation and the overall structure of our executive compensation program. • Our independent compensation consultant provides us with information on competitive pay practices and trends in our industry and makes recommendations regarding the design and structure of our compensation program, as well as the formulation of our peer group. • The information and guidance provided by our independent compensation consultant is consistent with our median pay philosophy. • For fiscal year 2022, special equity awards were made to the following key executives: Stefano Caroti, Steven J. Fasching, David E. Lafitte and Wendy Yang. These special equity awards were granted to ensure our executive compensation program aligns with peer group practices, to retain key executives in a highly competitive environment and to reward exceptional individual performance. Our Chief Executive Officer was not granted a special equity award. Please refer to the section of this Proxy Statement titled "Grants of Plan-Based Awards in Fiscal Year 2022" for additional information.

35

COMPENSATION OBJECTIVE AND PHILOSOPHY

Compensation Program Objective

Pursuant to its charter, the Committee has overall responsibility for developing the compensation philosophy and objectives applicable to our executive leadership team, and approving our executive compensation program and policies.

The primary objective of our executive compensation program, as established by the Committee is to compensate our executive officers in a manner that will attract, retain and motivate talented executives with the skills needed to manage a complex and growing business in a competitive industry, while creating long-term value for our stockholders. In furtherance of this objective, the Committee seeks to design our executive compensation program in a manner that reflects direct alignment between the compensation opportunity provided to our executives and the achievement of our strategic objectives. In doing so, we routinely consider appropriate changes to our compensation program to reflect our strategic direction and the evolving needs of our business. In addition, in order to build and retain the talent necessary to achieve our strategic objectives, the Committee endeavors to develop a compensation program that is attractive and competitive in the marketplace, taking into consideration peer group and broader industry data.

Compensation Philosophy

When establishing our executive compensation program each year, the Committee is generally guided by the following four principles that it believes align closely with our compensation objectives:

PAY-FOR-PERFORMANCE	ALIGN INTERESTS WITH STOCKHOLDERS
• Offer a significant portion of the compensation opportunity made available to our executives in the form of variable, performance-based components. • Ensure performance-based compensation is directly tied to the achievement of Company financial, operational and strategic goals that the Committee believes are important for our short and long-term success.	• Align the interests of our executives with those of our stockholders by tying a significant portion of the compensation opportunity to financial and operational performance that the Committee believes will result in the creation of long-term stockholder value. • Ensure that a significant portion of the compensation opportunity is directly tied to total and relative stockholder return.
REWARD ACHIEVEMENT	ATTRACT AND RETAIN EXECUTIVES
• Offer meaningful and appropriate incentives for achieving both short-term and long-term Company financial and operational goals that have been established by the Committee that are directly tied to the achievement of strategic objectives. • Ensure that the financial goals are appropriate for each executive given their respective titles, scope of responsibilities, and ability to impact results.	• Attract key executives with the proper background and experience necessary to lead our Company and provide us the best opportunity to achieve our business and strategic objectives. • Retain our key executives by offering compensation that is attractive and competitive in the marketplace, taking into consideration the competition for key executives and peer group and broader industry data.

Pay-for-Performance

Our pay-for-performance philosophy demands that we offer performance-based compensation that is directly linked to factors that the Committee believes will lead to the creation of stockholder value. Specifically, we pay for performance by tying a significant portion of our executive compensation opportunity to the achievement of pre-established performance metrics that are reflective of our business and strategic objectives, as well as to increases in our stock price. The Committee believes that choosing the right performance metrics is critical to our ability to properly motivate our executives and advance our pay-for-performance philosophy. In particular, this requires that the performance metrics be reconsidered each year as our business and strategic objectives evolve to ensure they provide the appropriate barometer of our growth and success, and motivate the achievement of our objectives in line with how we currently view the business. As an example of this evolution, during fiscal year 2023, the Committee will assess our performance against certain ESG initiatives as a factor in determining performance-based compensation for our executives to ensure our executive compensation program more closely reflects our Company's focus on advancing our ESG program.

Consistent with our philosophy, for our 2022 Annual Cash Incentive Awards, the Committee chose consolidated operating income and revenue for all NEOs (and business unit operating income and revenue targets for certain executives with business unit oversight responsibilities) as the performance metrics. For our 2022 LTIP PSUs, the Committee established pre-tax income and consolidated revenue for fiscal years 2022, 2023 and 2024 as the performance metrics. The performance metrics for these two key compensation elements reflect our strategic focus on increasing revenue and enhancing long-term profitability. In addition, the Committee will apply a total stockholder return, or TSR, modifier, to adjust the vesting of the 2022 LTIP PSUs following a determination that the performance metrics have been achieved to ensure we take into account our stock performance on both an absolute and relative basis.

36

As a result of our strong commitment to our pay-for-performance philosophy, a substantial portion of our executives’ compensation opportunity is performance-based and not guaranteed. While we offer certain standard compensation elements that provide fixed payments or benefits, our executive compensation mix is heavily weighted toward compensation that is performance-based or otherwise at risk, which we refer to as "performance-based." In applying our executive compensation philosophy, the Committee annually reviews both the amount of, and the mix between, fixed pay and performance-based pay. The Committee seeks to establish appropriate performance targets for the performance-based pay so as to ensure our performance targets align with our business and strategic objectives, are appropriately challenging to achieve, and mitigate our overall compensation-related risk.

As an example, for fiscal year 2022, fixed pay for our Chief Executive Officer represented only 11% of his targeted compensation opportunity for the year, while performance-based pay represented 89% of his targeted compensation. The fixed pay reflects the value of base salary and limited employee benefits. The performance-based pay reflects a combination of the target value of the 2022 Annual Cash Incentive Awards and the value of the target number of 2022 LTIP PSUs, each of which are earned or vest only upon the achievement of pre-established Company performance metrics. In addition, the performance-based pay reflects the value of the 2022 Time-Based RSUs, which the Committee believes is appropriate to include because our Chief Executive Officer is at risk of not receiving the full value of these awards since vesting is conditioned upon continued employment over an extended period of time, and their value is subject to fluctuation based on our stock price. Our Chief Executive Officer was not granted a special equity award during fiscal year 2022.

The graphic below illustrates the amount of target performance-based pay vs. fixed pay for our Chief Executive Officer for fiscal year 2022 and the breakdown of the various components of the compensation program on a percentage basis.

The elements of our executive compensation program are established taking into consideration the advice of our independent compensation consultant, which provides us with peer group data regarding competitive pay practices and trends in our industry. We believe the significant focus on performance-based awards reflected in the graphic above, including the relative weighting of the various compensation elements provided to our Chief Executive Officer, reflects our strong pay-for-performance alignment.

37

Governance Practices that Support Our Compensation Philosophy

Our executive compensation program has significant governance components that we believe support and strengthen our compensation philosophy and reduce compensation-related risk, including those summarized in the following table:

GOVERNANCE PRACTICE	WHAT WE DO þ
Independent Directors	• All of the members of our Board, other than our President and Chief Executive Officer, are independent directors under applicable SEC and NYSE rules.
Independent Compensation Committee	• The Committee consists entirely of independent directors who meet the independence standards set forth in applicable SEC and NYSE rules.
Independent Compensation Consultant	• The Committee has retained, and routinely consults with, an independent compensation consultant who assists the Committee in gathering competitive pay data, selecting our peer group, and structuring our executive compensation program. The decision to engage the consultant was made solely by the Committee and the consultant reports directly to the Committee.
Compensation Risk Assessment	• The Committee performs an annual review of the risks related to our compensation practices. See the section of this Proxy Statement titled "Compensation Risk Assessment" for additional information.
Frequency of "Say-on-Pay" Vote	• We ask our stockholders to provide an advisory vote on our pay practices on an annual basis, and the Committee considers the outcome of the vote when establishing our executive compensation program.
Stock Ownership Guidelines	• We have voluntarily adopted stock ownership guidelines for our executive officers and directors, which aligns the incentives of these persons with those of our stockholders and reflects a sound governance practice. See the section of this Proxy Statement titled "Stock Ownership Guidelines" for additional information.
Clawback and Forfeiture Policy	• We have voluntarily adopted a Clawback and Forfeiture Policy related to our cash and equity incentive awards, which reinforces our pay-for performance philosophy and contributes to a Company culture that emphasizes integrity and accountability in financial reporting. See the section of this Proxy Statement titled "Clawback and Forfeiture Policy" for additional information.
Equity Award Vesting Provisions	• Our equity awards are subject to "double-trigger" vesting upon a change in control.
No Tax Gross Ups	• Our change-in-control and severance agreements do not contain provisions allowing for excise tax gross up payments.
No Repricing of Awards	• Our 2015 Stock Incentive Plan, or 2015 Plan, explicitly prohibits the repricing of equity awards. No repricing of awards will occur without the approval of our stockholders.
No Hedging and Pledging	• We have adopted governance policies that specifically prohibit hedging or pledging our shares, and other similar practices. See the section of this Proxy Statement titled "Compensation Risk Considerations" for additional information.
No Dividends on Unvested Equity Awards	• Our equity award agreements do not provide for the payment of dividends on unvested equity awards.

38

COMPENSATION CONSULTANT AND PEER GROUP

Compensation Consultant

The Committee receives assessments and advice regarding our compensation practices and philosophy from its independent compensation consultant, Frederic W. Cook & Co., or FW Cook. FW Cook provides information on competitive pay practices and trends in our industry, and makes recommendations regarding the formulation of our Peer Group (as defined below), as well as the design and structure of our compensation program. The Committee meets regularly with FW Cook throughout the year, carefully reviews and assesses the materials provided by FW Cook, and engages in thorough deliberations with FW Cook and management regarding our executive compensation program and potential changes.

While our Company is not obligated to retain an independent compensation consultant, the Committee believes that the use of an independent consultant provides additional assurance that our executive compensation program is attractive and competitive in the marketplace, consistent with market conditions, aligned with our business and strategic objectives, and reflective of our executive compensation philosophy.

In accordance with applicable SEC rules, the Committee took certain factors into consideration when selecting FW Cook, which it believes may affect the independence of a compensation consultant. In particular, the Committee considered:

•whether any other services had been or were being provided by FW Cook to our Company;

•the amount of fees paid by our Company to FW Cook as a percent of FW Cook’s total revenues;

•FW Cook’s policies and procedures designed to prevent conflicts, a copy of which was provided to the Committee prior to the meeting;

•FW Cook’s ownership of our common stock (if any); and

•any business or personal relationships between FW Cook and any Committee members or any of our executive officers.

Furthermore, FW Cook does not provide any additional services to us or our management, other than those provided to the Committee. Following the consideration of these factors, and such additional factors as the Committee deemed appropriate under the circumstances, the Committee made an affirmative determination that FW Cook is independent and unanimously approved the engagement of FW Cook.

The decision to engage FW Cook was made by the Committee, and FW Cook reports directly to the Committee. While members of our management regularly communicate with representatives of FW Cook, our management did not recommend the engagement of FW Cook in any capacity for fiscal year 2022 (or in any prior year) and does not direct or oversee the retention, termination or scope of services of FW Cook with respect to our executive compensation program.

Peer Group

In making compensation decisions for fiscal year 2022, the Committee compared the aggregate compensation opportunity, as well as each element of compensation, against a peer group of publicly traded footwear, apparel, accessories and lifestyle brand companies that is recommended by FW Cook and approved by the Committee. Our peer group is generally comprised of companies against which we compete for executive talent and stockholder investment, are in related businesses or industries, and are otherwise similar to us based on a number of characteristics. Our peer group is reviewed at least annually by the Committee with support from FW Cook. In particular, when selecting our peer group, the Committee considers the characteristics set forth in the chart below.

39

For fiscal year 2022, based on the factors discussed above, the Committee approved the peer group set forth in the table below, which we refer to as our Peer Group.

FISCAL YEAR 2022 PEER GROUP
• Carter's, Inc.	• Express, Inc.	• Lululemon Athletica, Inc.	• Tapestry, Inc.
• Caleres, Inc.	• Fossil Group, Inc.	• Oxford Industries, Inc.	• The Children's Place, Inc.
• Columbia Sportswear Company	• G-III Apparel Group, Ltd.	• Restoration Hardware Holdings, Inc.	• Under Armour Inc.
• Crocs, Inc.	• Genesco, Inc.	• Skechers U.S.A., Inc.	• Wolverine World Wide, Inc.
• DSW Inc.	• Guess, Inc.	• Steve Madden, Ltd.

While no single company in our peer group reflected all of our Company's characteristics, taken together the Committee believed that these companies provided strong comparative analogs to our overall business model at the time the peer group was selected.

For fiscal year 2023, the Committee approved an updated peer group based on consideration of the various factors and characteristics discussed above.In particular, changes were made to the peer group to reflect the relatively greater complexity of our organization taking into account metrics such as revenue and market capitalization. Our peer group for fiscal year 2023 consists of the following 20 companies, ten of which were part of our fiscal year 2022 Peer Group:

FISCAL YEAR 2023 PEER GROUP
• Capri Holdings Limited	• Hanesbrands Inc.	• RH	• Under Armour Inc.
• Carter's, Inc.	• Levi Strauss & Co.	• Skechers U.S.A., Inc.	• Urban Outfitters Inc
• Columbia Sportswear Company	• Lululemon Athletica, Inc.	• Steve Madden, Ltd.	• VF Corporation
• Crocs, Inc.	• PVH Corp.	• Tapestry, Inc.	• Williams-Sonoma, Inc.
• Foot Locker, Inc.	• Ralph Lauren Corp	• Ulta Beauty, Inc.	• Wolverine World Wide, Inc.

Use of Peer Group in Setting Executive Compensation

As part of its effort to ensure that our executive compensation program is attractive and competitive in the marketplace, the Committee regularly reviews compensation data from our Peer Group provided by FW Cook. In addition, in order to gain perspective on overall market trends and practices, the Committee regularly reviews data from broader-based compensation surveys. Our Peer Group compensation data is generally used as an initial starting point in making compensation decisions for our executives, including with respect to both the target level of compensation and the overall structure of our executive compensation program.

For comparison purposes, FW Cook typically presents Peer Group data on individual executive pay levels, both with respect to the total compensation opportunity and individual elements of compensation for each executive. In setting the target compensation opportunity for each individual executive for fiscal year 2022, the Committee focused on benchmarking our executives’ target compensation opportunity to the 50th percentile compared to our Peer Group, subject to the discretion retained by the Committee to make adjustments as it deems appropriate. While the focus of the median pay philosophy is on the total compensation opportunity available to our executives, the individual elements of compensation are also generally targeted to the 50th percentile as a starting point.

While an assessment of our Peer Group compensation data, and broader-based compensation surveys, is a significant factor in the Committee’s evaluation of compensation decisions, it also considers a variety of additional factors, including the tenure, experience, and level of responsibility of each executive, recent and projected Company performance, recent individual performance, retention considerations, general industry practices and economic conditions.

As discussed above, the Committee selectively granted special equity awards during fiscal year 2022 following a review of compensation data from our fiscal year 2023 peer group to ensure our compensation program aligns with peer group practices.

2022 Annual Cash Incentive Awards

The following table provides information regarding the 2022 Annual Cash Incentive Awards granted to our NEOs during fiscal year 2022:

COMPENSATION ELEMENT 2022 ANNUAL CASH INCENTIVE AWARDS
Compensation	Description	Performance Conditions/ Vesting Provisions	Pay-for-Performance
• Performance-Based (Short-Term Company Performance Criteria) • Cash	• Short-term Company performance conditions based on Committee-approved annual metrics derived from our annual and long-range business and strategic plan. • Pay based on achievement of threshold, target and maximum Company financial performance levels to reward achievement and strike appropriate balance between compensation incentives and risks. • The "target" performance condition level is typically in line with the level of Company performance projected for each metric based on the annual budget. • All NEOs have operating income and revenue-based performance metrics to reflect a continued focus on profitability and top line growth, and to ensure our compensation program encourages healthy and sustained growth across our business.	• Target bonus set as percentage of base salary. • Actual bonus payout is based on achievement of fiscal year 2022 consolidated operating income and consolidated revenue targets for all NEOs (and business unit operating income and revenue targets for certain executives with business unit oversight responsibilities). • The Committee assigned relative weighting to each component, which is expressed as a percentage of the targeted cash incentive amount. • For threshold performance, 50% of the cash incentive related to that component would be earned. For target performance, 100% would be earned. For maximum performance, 200% would be earned. • Achievement below threshold levels results in no payout. To the extent Company financial performance is achieved above the threshold levels, the bonus payout that will be earned from the threshold to the target, and then from the target to the maximum, will increase as determined by linear interpolation. • When determining Company achievement relative to the performance targets, the Committee relied upon our fiscal year 2022 audited financial statements.	• Fiscal year 2022 consolidated operating income, consolidated revenue, Global Omni-Channel revenue, Performance Lifestyle operating income and Performance Lifestyle revenue metrics were all achieved above the target levels based on Company performance. Global Omni-Channel operating income was achieved above the threshold level and below the target level. • As a result of this performance, 2022 Annual Cash Incentive Award payments ranging from 106% to 124% of base salary were earned by each of the NEOs, as described in detail below.

42

Target Cash Incentive Amount

The Committee establishes a target amount of annual cash incentive compensation for each NEO, which is expressed as a percentage of base salary. The percentage is determined by the Committee by reference to a number of factors, scope of responsibilities, our recent and projected financial performance, and a review of our Peer Group data. Further, the target cash incentive amount is prorated to reflect any base salary adjustments throughout the full fiscal year so that the target amount reflects actual base salary earnings.

Performance Targets

The following table summarizes the performance conditions for the 2022 Annual Cash Incentive Awards, the relative weighting of each performance condition for each NEO, our Company's performance in light of the targets and the actual payout percentage for each component:

COMPONENT	RELATIVE WEIGHT FOR EACH NEO	THRESHOLD PERFORMANCE	TARGET PERFORMANCE	MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE	PERFORMANCE AND PAYOUT(1)
Consolidated Operating Income	• 70% for Messrs. Powers, Fasching and Lafitte • 30% for Mr. Caroti and Ms. Yang	• $493.0 million	• $547.8 million	• $657.4 million	• $564.7 million, resulting in a payout of 115%
Consolidated Revenue	• 30% for Messrs. Powers, Fasching and Lafitte	• $2,778.5 million	• $3,020.1 million	• $3,322.1 million	• $3,150.3 million, resulting in a payout of 143%
Business Unit Operating Income	• 40% for Mr. Caroti (Global Omni-Channel)	• $692.4 million	• $769.4 million	• $923.2 million	• $757.2 million, resulting in a payout of 92%
	• 40% for Ms. Yang (Performance Lifestyle)	• $296.8 million	• $329.8 million	• $395.8 million	• $340.2 million, resulting in a payout of 116%

	• 30% for Ms. Yang (Performance Lifestyle)	• $909.8 million	• $988.9 million	• $1,137.3 million	• $1,054.3 million, resulting in a payout of 144%

(1)    Payout percentages reflect the level of payout achieved for each component of the 2022 Annual Cash Incentive Award.

43

Calculation of Payout

The amount of cash incentive compensation actually earned by each NEO with respect to the 2022 Annual Cash Incentive Awards, or Total Payout, is calculated by multiplying the target cash incentive amount by the percentage of target earned for each component, and then multiplying the amount by the relative weighting of each component, as illustrated in the table below:

NAME	TARGET PERCENTAGE OF SALARY	COMPONENT	TARGET CASH INCENTIVE AMOUNT	PERCENTAGE OF TARGET EARNED FOR COMPONENT	RELATIVE WEIGHT OF COMPONENT	PAYOUT FOR EACH COMPONENT	TOTAL PAYOUT
Dave Powers	125%	Consolidated Operating Income	$962,500	115%	70%	$1,191,065	$1,701,521

2022 Time-Based Restricted Stock Units

The following table provides information regarding the 2022 Time-Based RSUs granted to our NEOs during fiscal year 2022:

COMPENSATION ELEMENT  2022 TIME-BASED RSUs
Compensation	Description	Performance Criteria/ Vesting Provisions	Pay-for-Performance
• Fixed • Long-Term Time-Based Vesting • Approximately 40% of total equity compensation	• Balance the level of performance-based pay with time-based pay to properly manage our compensation-related risk. • Primarily used for retention of our executives. • Customary among our Peer Group. • For fiscal year 2022, special equity awards were made to the following key executives: Stefano Caroti, Steven J. Fasching, David E. Lafitte, and Wendy Yang. These special equity awards were granted to ensure our compensation program aligns with peer group practices, to retain key executives in a highly competitive environment and to reward exceptional individual performance. The special equity awards consisted 40% of time-based RSUs (and the remaining 60% consisted of performance-based LTIP RSUs).	• 2022 Time-Based awards vest in three equal installments over three years commencing August 15, 2022. • Special equity awards vest in three equal installments over approximately three years following the grant date.	• While the 2022 Time-Based RSUs and special equity awards are not subject to a performance-based vesting condition, our NEOs are at risk of not receiving the full value of these awards because vesting is conditioned upon continued employment over an extended period of time and their value is subject to fluctuation based on our stock price. • The Committee expects a majority of equity awards to continue to have performance-based vesting conditions. • The Committee expects special equity awards to be used infrequently.

2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan Performance-Based Stock Units

The following table provides information regarding the 2022 LTIP PSUs granted to our NEOs during fiscal year 2022:

COMPENSATION ELEMENT 2022 LTIP PSUs
Compensation	Description	Performance Conditions/ Vesting Provisions	Pay-for-Performance
• Performance-Based (Long-Term Company Performance Criteria and Vesting) • Approximately 60% of total equity compensation	• Company performance criteria are based on Committee-approved metrics derived from our three-year long-range business and strategic plan that are approved at the beginning of the performance measurement period. • Pre-tax income and revenue support our focus on profitability and consolidated revenue as key strategic initiatives and align executives’ interests with the execution of our long-range plan. • Reliance on multiple performance-based vesting conditions strikes appropriate balance between compensation incentives and risks. • For fiscal year 2022, special equity awards were made to Stefano Caroti, Steve Fasching, David Lafitte, and Wendy Yang. These special equity awards were granted to ensure our compensation program aligns with peer group practices, to retain key executives in a highly competitive environment and to reward exceptional individual performance. The special equity awards consisted 60% of performance-based LTIP RSUs, which vest based on the achievement of performance criteria over a three-year period.	• 50% of each award will vest subject to the achievement of annual pre-tax income targetsmeasured in fiscal years 2022, 2023 and 2024, based on our three-year long range plan. • 50% of each award will vest subject to the achievement of an annual consolidated revenue targetmeasured in fiscal years 2022, 2023 and 2024, based on our long range plan. • While we measure performance annually over the three-year period, the goals for each fiscal year are established at the beginning of the performance measurement period. • No vesting of any portion of the award will occur if the Company fails to achieve the pre-established minimum revenue and pre-tax income thresholds. To the extent Company financial performance is achieved above the threshold amounts, the number of PSUs that will vest from the threshold to the target, and then from the target to the maximum, will increase as determined by linear interpolation, provided that the maximum number of PSUs that may vest with respect to a particular award will not exceed 200% of the targeted amount for that award regardless of the level of Company performance.  • The executive must provide continued service through March 31, 2024. • When determining Company achievement relative to the annual performance targets, the Committee will rely upon our fiscal year 2022, 2023 and 2024 audited financial statements, as may be adjusted by the Committee for certain non-recurring items.	• Vesting of awards dependent on achievement of profitability and consolidated revenue targets that are established by the Committee on the grant date, which are consistent with achievement of our strategic objectives. • Same Company performance criteria used for the 2022 LTIP PSUs and the portion of the special equity awards comprising performance-based LTIP RSUs to ensure alignment. • As further described below, the vesting of the awards will subject to adjustment based upon the application of a TSR modifier, thereby correlating the vesting of the awards to total and relative stockholder returns over the full three-year performance period. • The Committee expects special equity awards to be used infrequently.

TSR Modifier

The 2022 LTIP PSU awards earned are subject to adjustment based on a TSR modifier. The amount of the adjustment will be determined based upon a comparison of Company TSR relative to the TSR of a pre-determined set of peer group companies, or TSR Peer Group, for the 36-month performance period commencing on April 1, 2021 and ending on March 31, 2024. For purposes of the 2022 LTIP PSUs, the TSR Peer Group used is the same as the Peer Group, but also includes three additional competitive companies in similar industries. Depending on Company TSR relative to the TSR of the TSR Peer Group, the number of RSUs that will be subject to vesting pursuant to each 2022 LTIP PSU will be modified as follows with linear interpolation between the percentiles:

46

Company TSR Relative to Peer Group TSR (Percentile)	TSR Modifier (Multiplier)
≥75th	125%
55th	100% (no modification)
≤25th	75%

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Company TSR is greater than or equal to the 55th percentile relative to the TSR of the TSR Peer Group, but Company TSR is a negative amount, the TSR modifier will not be applied (the number of RSUs to be vested will not be increased as a result of the TSR multiplier), which further aligns the interests of our executives with those of our stockholders. In addition, regardless of Company TSR relative to the TSR of the TSR Peer Group, the maximum number of RSUs that may vest pursuant to a particular 2022 LTIP PSU will not exceed 200% of the targeted amount, thereby mitigating compensation-related risk.

Option Exercises and Stock Award Vesting

The option exercises and stock award vesting for our NEOs that occurred during fiscal year 2022 for (i) fiscal year 2017 long-term incentive plan non-qualified stock options, or 2017 LTIP NQSOs, (ii) fiscal year 2018 long-term incentive plan non-qualified stock options, or 2018 LTIP NQSOs, and (iii) fiscal year 2020 long-term incentive plan performance-based stock units, or 2020 LTIP PSUs, are reflected in the table titled "Fiscal Year 2022 Option Exercises and Stock Vested."

Employee Benefits

The following table provides information regarding the key employee benefits granted or paid to our NEOs during fiscal year 2022:

COMPENSATION ELEMENT EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

COMPENSATION ELEMENT SEVERANCE AND CHANGE IN CONTROL PROVISIONS
Compensation	Considerations	Terms
• Certain cash payments to NEOs, and vesting of certain equity awards in the event of a separation of employment	• The employment of our NEOs is "at will," meaning we can terminate them at any time and they can terminate their employment with us at any time. • "Double-trigger" provisions preserve morale and productivity and encourage executive retention in the face of the potentially disruptive impact of a change in control. • Considered a typical component of a competitive executive compensation program for executives among our Peer Group. • Provisions take into account the expected time it takes a separated executive to find a similarly situated job.	Change-in-Control and Severance Agreements: • Provide for certain cash payments, and the vesting of certain equity awards, in the event there is a separation of employment under various circumstances. Equity Award Agreements: • Provide for accelerated vesting of awards upon a change in control if the recipient is terminated by the acquiring entity in connection with the change in control under specified circumstances. In addition, vesting of awards will be accelerated in full if the acquiring entity does not agree to provide for the assumption or substitution of the awards, and for certain outstanding historical awards if the transaction is not approved by a majority of the continuing directors.

For additional information about the severance and change in control provisions in our severance agreements and equity award agreements, please refer to the section of this Proxy Statement titled "Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control."

OTHER COMPENSATION CONSIDERATIONS

Role of Executive Officers in Compensation Decisions

At the request of the Committee, our Chief Executive Officer or other senior management personnel may provide performance and compensation information to the Committee to inform its compensation decisions. However, our executives are not permitted to be present during any deliberations and voting regarding their own compensation, or during any executive sessions of the Committee. The Committee considers the information provided by our management, as well as information and advice provided by FW Cook, when making compensation decisions for our NEOs and other executives. The Committee, which is comprised solely of independent directors, thoroughly evaluates and approves all elements of compensation for our NEOs and other executives.

Compensation Risk Considerations

The Committee is responsible for reviewing the payments that may be made and the value that may be achieved from our compensation program for all employees, including our NEOs, to assess whether the program encourages excessive or unnecessary risk-taking or otherwise is likely to have a material adverse effect on us. The Committee conducts a compensation risk analysis at least annually, but also takes into account compensation-related risks each time it grants compensation awards throughout the fiscal year. In conducting these assessments, the Committee considers a number of factors including the following:

•Our compensation program consists of elements that provide both fixed and performance-based compensation, and the Committee reviews these elements and the relative mix annually.

•Our Peer Group and industry compensation data is reviewed regularly to ensure that our compensation program is appropriate and competitive.

•We have adopted a median pay philosophy whereby we remain focused on benchmarking our executives’ target total compensation at the median compared to our Peer Group.

•The Committee expects a majority of equity awards to continue to have performance-based vesting conditions.

•Performance-based awards are earned based on the achievement of pre-established Company and business unit performance goals covering multiple time periods.

•We seek to limit overlap between our performance conditions to ensure our compensation program is encouraging healthy and sustained growth across our business.

•Our performance-based awards are subject to maximum award amounts to cap the potential compensation amount associated with an award.

•Our executive compensation program encourages executive retention through long-term vesting provisions. For fiscal year 2022, all of the equity awards we granted were subject to three-year vesting.

•We have voluntarily adopted Stock Ownership Guidelines, which encourage executives to have a significant, long-term equity position in our Company, thereby aligning the interests of our executives with our stockholders.

•We have voluntarily adopted a Clawback and Forfeiture Policy related to our cash and equity incentive awards, which emphasizes integrity and accountability in financial reporting.

•Our governance policies, including our insider trading policy, prohibit our executive officers from hedging the economic interest in our securities, including short sales or trading in any derivatives involving our securities, and from pledging our securities.

•Our severance and change in control benefits are designed to attract and retain executives without providing excessive benefits such as excise tax gross up payments.

•Our equity awards are intended to provide for “double-trigger” vesting upon a change in control.

The Committee believes that, although the majority of the compensation opportunity provided to our executives is performance-based pay that is determined based upon the achievement of Company performance conditions, our executive compensation program does not encourage excessive or unnecessary risk-taking. The Committee does not believe that our compensation program is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

49

CEO Pay Ratio

Pursuant to Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are required to disclose the ratio of the annual total compensation of our principal executive officer to the median of the annual total compensation of all of our employees (excluding our principal executive officer), or our median employee. During fiscal year 2022, our principal executive officer was Dave Powers, our President and Chief Executive Officer.

For fiscal year 2022, the annual total compensation of our President and Chief Executive Officer was $10,854,934, and the annual total compensation of our median employee was $43,501, each as calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.

Based on this information, the fiscal year 2022 ratio of the annual total compensation of our principal executive officer to the annual total compensation of our median employee was approximately 250:1.

Consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we identified our median employee as of March 1, 2022 by (i) aggregating for each applicable employee (A) annual base salary for salaried employees (or hourly rate multiplied by estimated work schedule, for hourly, temporary and seasonal employees), (B) overtime paid during the year, and (C) target incentive compensation, and (ii) ranking this compensation measure for our employees from lowest to highest. For non-U.S. employees, we converted such employees’ pay to a U.S. dollar equivalent by applying an 11-month average trailing exchange rate for each applicable currency. This calculation was performed for all of our employees, excluding Mr. Powers, except as described below. After identifying our median employee, we calculated that individual’s fiscal year 2022 total annual compensation in accordance with the requirements of the applicable SEC rules.

Individuals (with corresponding number of employees, representing all employees in that jurisdiction) who were employed in Canada (76), Vietnam (81), Austria (15), and Italy (3) were excluded from the employee population for purposes of this disclosure, pursuant to the de minimis exemption set forth in the applicable SEC rules. After taking into consideration the foregoing exemption, on March 1, 2022, we had 2,325 U.S. employees and 1,429 non-U.S. employees. Without taking into account the impact of this exemption, we had 2,325 U.S. employees and 1,604 non-U.S. employees.

The pay ratio we have reported above is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with applicable SEC rules based on our internal records and the methodology described above. The SEC rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices. Therefore, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio we have reported above.

Clawback and Forfeiture Policy

Consistent with our executive compensation philosophy, which seeks to reward executive officers for financial performance that creates value for our stockholders, we have voluntarily adopted a Clawback and Forfeiture Policy. Under this policy, we will seek recoupment or reimbursement with respect to performance-based compensation paid or awarded to our executive officers when the following three factors exist:

•the incentive compensation payment or award (or the vesting of such award) was based upon the achievement of financial results, as reported in a Form 10-Q, Form 10-K or other report filed with the SEC, that were subsequently the subject of a restatement to correct an accounting error due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the federal securities laws;

•a lower payment or award would have been made to such executive officer (or lesser or no vesting would have occurred with respect to such award) based upon the restated financial results; and

•the requirement to file the restatement was identified within three years after the date of the first public filing of the financial results that were subsequently the subject of the accounting restatement.

Under the policy, the restatement does not need to be the result of misconduct by the executive officers for the recoupment to apply.

The recoupment or reimbursement to be sought by our Company will be equal to the portion of any performance-based compensation paid to or received by such executive officer for or during each of the restated periods that is greater than the amount that would have been paid or received had the financial results been properly reported.

In addition, under this policy, the Committee may seek to recoup or recover from an employee certain performance-based compensation previously paid or awarded to such employee if the Company determines that the employee has engaged in significant misconduct that causes financial or reputational harm to the Company (regardless of whether a restatement of financial results has occurred).

50

Stock Ownership Guidelines

To further align the interests of our directors and executive officers with those of our stockholders, we have voluntarily adopted Stock Ownership Guidelines. The Committee periodically reviews our Stock Ownership Guidelines to ensure it continues to evolve to take into account changes to our executive compensation program.

The minimum ownership thresholds for our NEOs are determined as a multiple of the NEO's base salary as of the beginning of each calendar year. Unless and until a NEO reaches the required ownership level, the NEO must retain at least 75% of the shares, after payment of any applicable exercise price and tax withholdings, that are acquired through our equity compensation program. The Committee periodically reviews our NEOs' compliance with the Stock Ownership Guidelines and, as of the end of fiscal year 2022, determined that each NEO complied with the minimum ownership thresholds determined thereunder.

Directors are required to hold a number of shares of common stock with a value equal to five times the base annual cash retainer fee within five years of joining our Board, subject to exceptions that may be granted by the Committee. In addition, each director must hold shares of our common stock within one year of joining our Board.

The following table provides a summary of the Stock Ownership Guidelines applicable to our NEOs and directors:

POSITION	STOCK OWNERSHIP GUIDELINES
Chief Executive Officer	6x Annual Base Salary
Other NEOs	3x Annual Base Salary
Directors	5x Annual Board Retainer Fee

Tax and Accounting Considerations

Among the factors it considers when making executive compensation decisions, the Committee considers the anticipated tax and accounting impact to us (and to our executive officers) of various payments, equity awards and other benefits.

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, limits the amount we may deduct for compensation paid to “covered employees” to $1.0 million per person in any taxable year. "Covered employees” generally include our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other highly compensated executive officers. The Committee considers the impact of the provisions of Section 162(m) of the Code when determining the compensation of the Company's executive officers, but we maintain the discretion to approve compensation that is not deductible so as to attract, retain and motivate our executives. We do not anticipate that the $1.0 million deduction limitation set forth in Section 162(m) of the Code will have a material impact on our results of operations.

The Committee also considers the impact of Section 409A of the Code, and in general, our executive plans and programs are designed to comply with the requirements of that section so as to avoid possible adverse tax consequences that may result from noncompliance.

We account for equity awards in accordance with the requirements of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification, or FASB ASC, Topic 718, Stock Compensation.

Our change-in-control and severance agreements do not allow for excise tax gross up payments.

NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan

The Committee has adopted the NQDC Plan, which is an unfunded, nonqualified deferred compensation program sponsored by our Company to provide certain members of our management the opportunity to defer compensation into the NQDC Plan. The NQDC Plan year is from January 1st to December 31st. Participants may defer up to 50% of their annual base salary and up to 85% of any cash incentive bonus under the NQDC Plan. We have the option, but not the obligation, to make discretionary or matching cash contributions to NQDC Plan participants. We have established a rabbi trust as a reserve for the benefits payable under the NQDC Plan. During fiscal year 2022, certain of our NEOs elected to make contributions to the NQDC Plan, and the Committee elected to match a portion of the contributions under the NQDC Plan.

Deferred Stock Unit Compensation Plan

The Committee has also adopted a Deferred Stock Unit Compensation Plan. Under the plan, a director or employee who holds unvested RSUs may elect to defer settlement of up to 100% of the awards. For each unit of our common stock held pursuant to an award of RSUs that is deferred, the participant will receive one Deferred Stock Unit. Amounts deferred will be distributed, as described in the plan, at the time elected by the participant. A participant’s Deferred Stock Units will be settled in shares of our common stock, as more specifically described in the plan. None of our NEOs elected to participate in the plan during fiscal year 2022.

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE IN CONTROL

Change-in-Control and Severance Agreements

We have entered into change in control and severance agreements, or Severance Agreements, as amended from time to time, with each of our NEOs. The information below describes compensation and benefits that are payable or earned under the Severance Agreements with our NEOs (which are each referred to in their respective Severance Agreement as an “executive”) upon the occurrence of certain termination events.

Termination by Our Company for Cause, or by Executive Without Good Reason

Pursuant to the Severance Agreements with each of our NEOs, if the executive is terminated by our Company for Cause, or the executive terminates his or her employment without Good Reason (in each case as defined below), then the NEO will receive the following from our Company:

•payment of his or her accrued base salary, accrued vacation, reimbursement for reimbursable expenses, accrued and vested benefits under our plans or programs and other benefits required to be paid by law, accrued but unpaid non-equity incentive bonus for the prior fiscal year (excluding any non-equity incentive bonus for the year of termination); and

•the right to exercise all vested equity awards pursuant to the terms of the applicable award agreement.

Termination Due to Death or Total Disability

Pursuant to the Severance Agreements with each of our NEOs, if the executive is terminated due to his or her death or total disability, then in addition to those benefits provided upon a termination by our Company for Cause or by executive other than for Good Reason, the NEO will receive:

•pro-rated portion of his or her non-equity incentive bonus for the current fiscal year based on actual length of service during the year of termination and actual achievement by our Company of the performance conditions in respect of such bonus previously established by the Committee.

Termination by Our Company Without Cause

Pursuant to the Severance Agreements with each of our NEOs, if the executive is terminated by our Company without Cause, then in addition to those benefits provided upon a termination due to death or total disability, the NEO will receive:

•payment of his or her then-effective annual base salary for, in the case of the CEO, 18 months, or, in the case of any other NEO, 12 months following his or her termination, subject to such executive signing a release; and

•receipt of health benefits for a period of 18 months in the case of the CEO, and one year in the case of any other NEO following his or her termination or his or her attainment of alternative employment that provides health benefits, whichever is earlier.

Termination Without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason within Two Years of a Change in Control

Pursuant to the Severance Agreements with each of our NEOs, if the executive is terminated by our Company without Cause or by the executive for Good Reason within two years of a Change in Control, then in addition to those benefits provided upon a termination due to death or total disability, the NEO will receive:

•payment of, in the case of the CEO, two times, or, in the case of any other NEO, one-and-one-half times his or her then-effective annual base salary, plus the greater of one-and-one-half times the targeted incentive bonus immediately prior to the time such termination occurs or one-and-one-half times the average actual incentive bonus for the previous three years, subject to such executive signing a release; and

•receipt of health benefits for, in the case of the CEO, a period of two years, or, in the case of any other NEO, a period of 18 months following his or her termination or his or her attainment of alternative employment that provides health benefits, whichever is earlier.

For purposes of the Severance Agreements, “Cause” means, in part, (i) any willful breach of duty by the executive in the course of his or her employment or continued violation of written Company employment policies after written notice of such violation, (ii) violation of our insider trading policies, (iii) conviction of a felony or any crime involving fraud, theft, embezzlement, dishonesty or moral turpitude, (iv) engaging in activities which materially defame our Company, engaging in conduct which is materially injurious to our Company or our affiliates, or any of our respective customer or supplier relationships, financially or otherwise, or

60

(v) the executive’s gross negligence or continued failure to perform duties or executive’s continued incapacity to perform such duties.

“Good Reason” means, without the consent of the executive, if within two years of a change in control, there is a material reduction of the executive’s total compensation, benefits, and perquisites (excluding a material reduction resulting from a decrease in value of the Company’s stock), our Company's relocation is greater than 50 miles from the location where the executive performs services, or a material change in the executive’s authority, duties, or responsibilities; provided, however, no such event shall constitute Good Reason unless the executive shall have given written notice to our Company of the executive’s intent to resign for “Good Reason” within 30 days after the executive first becomes aware of the occurrence of any such event (specifying the nature and scope of the event) and such event or occurrence shall not have been cured within 30 days of our receipt of such notice, and the executive resigns no later than 90 days after the expiration of the 30-day cure period.

“Change in Control” means the occurrence of a merger, consolidation, sale of all or a major portion of the assets of our Company (or a successor organization) or similar transaction or circumstance where any person or group acquires, in one or more transactions, beneficial ownership of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of voting stock of our Company (or a successor organization), or a change in a majority of the members of our Board.

No NEOs will be entitled to gross ups for excise tax penalty on “excess golden parachute payments” as a result of termination following a Change in Control.

Equity Award Agreements

Pursuant to the “double-trigger” vesting provisions of the awards outstanding as of the end of fiscal year 2021 under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan, or 2006 Plan, and 2015 Plan, except as specifically noted below, the vesting of each award will be accelerated in full in the event of a change in control that is approved by a majority of the Continuing Directors (as defined in the award agreements) if the acquiring or successor entity in the change in control provides for the continuance or assumption of the award agreement, or the substitution for the award agreement of a new agreement of comparable value covering shares of a successor corporation, and (i) the recipient is terminated by the acquiring company without Cause or pursuant to a Constructive Termination (as such terms are defined in the relevant award agreements) within either 12 or 24 months of such change in control; or (ii) only in the case of certain LTIP NQSOs and RSUs, the recipient has provided Continuous Service (as defined in the award agreements) through the applicable performance vesting date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing summary, the award agreements governing the grants of the 2020 Annual PSUs only provide for acceleration as described above to the extent that the Committee determines that at least the “threshold” performance conditions associated with the awards have been met unless the change in control occurs prior to the end of the relevant performance period, in which case the unvested PSUs will accelerate in full, regardless of achievement of the performance condition.

In addition, the vesting of each equity award will be accelerated in full if: (i) for certain of the outstanding historical awards, a change in control occurs that has not been approved by a majority of the Continuing Directors; or (ii) the acquiring or successor entity in the change in control does not agree to continue or assume the award agreement, or substitute new awards of comparable value.

Severance and Change-in-Control Payments

The following table provides information about the payments and benefits that would have been paid or provided to our NEOs in the event that a termination of employment had occurred on March 31, 2022. The amounts reflected in the table are in addition to amounts that would have been payable for accrued but unpaid base salary, accrued paid time off, accrued but unpaid cash incentive compensation, and reimbursement of expenses.

The payments to be made, and the stock and option awards to be vested, in connection with different termination events (including in connection with a change in control) for each of our NEOs have been determined by reference to the terms of the applicable Severance Agreements and equity award agreements. Except as described above, no payments or benefits would be provided to our NEOs in the event of a termination of employment for Cause. Refer to the section of this Proxy Statement titled “Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control” for additional information.

For purposes of the table, the value of the stock and option awards has been determined based on the closing price of our common stock on March 31, 2022. In the event of an actual change in control transaction, the value of our common stock may be significantly different than this assumed value, in which case the value realized by our NEOs upon the vesting of the stock and option awards may be significantly different.

Consulting Agreement with Wendy Yang

On May 31, 2022, or the Separation Date, we entered into a Consulting Agreement and General Release, or the Consulting Agreement, with Wendy Yang, our former President of Performance Lifestyle. Under the Consulting Agreement, Ms. Yang has agreed to provide consulting services to us from June 1, 2022 until August 15, 2022, or the Consulting Period, unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of the Consulting Agreement, to ensure a smooth transition of services following the Separation Date. The effectiveness of the Consulting Agreement was conditioned upon and subject to Ms. Yang entering into a general release of claims for the benefit of the Company and certain other parties.

The Consulting Agreement provides that we will, among other things, pay Ms. Yang (i) a pro-rated portion of the target amount of the cash incentive bonus payable with respect to fiscal year 2023 based on her actual length of service during the fiscal year, (ii) payments equal to 24 months of her base salary (in effect on the Separation Date), which will be mitigated on a dollar-for-dollar basis for income received by her during the 12 months following the Separation Date (subject to certain exceptions as set forth in the Consulting Agreement), (iii) COBRA group health insurance premiums for Ms. Yang and her eligible dependents until 18 months following the Separation Date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms of the Consulting Agreement, and (iv) any accrued and vested benefits required to be provided by the terms of any Company-sponsored benefit plans or any benefits required to be paid or provided under applicable law. In addition, any equity awards previously granted to Ms. Yang that were outstanding on the Separation Date, and that vest on or before August 15, 2022, will remain outstanding subject to and consistent with the terms of the 2015 Plan and the agreements granting such awards. However, no further vesting of Ms. Yang's awards shall occur following the end of the Consulting Period.

Ms. Yang’s receipt of the payments and other benefits under the Consulting Agreement is conditioned upon her continued compliance with the confidentiality, non-competition, non-solicitation, non-disparagement and other covenants set forth in the Consulting Agreement. In particular, Ms. Yang has agreed not to accept employment from, or engage in any professional relationship with, any of our competitors, or to otherwise engage in any business activity that is competitive with our Company, until the termination of the Consulting Agreement. In the event of a breach of these obligations, we may demand Ms. Yang repay

62

the amounts paid pursuant to the Consulting Agreement prior to the breach of such obligations, and Ms. Yang will forfeit any further payments or benefits that would have otherwise been payable pursuant to the agreement.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

For fiscal year 2022, directors who are not our employees, or our Nonemployee Directors, received an annual cash retainer fee of $65,000, plus an annual cash retainer of $10,000 for each Board committee assignment. Nonemployee Directors holding the following positions received additional annual cash retainer fees as follows: $160,000 for Chairman of our Board of Directors; $40,000 for Chair of the Audit & Risk Management Committee; $35,000 for Chair of the Talent & Compensation Committee; and $20,000 for Chair of the Corporate Governance Committee. All or any portion of the cash retainer fees paid to any of our Nonemployee Directors may, at the election of the director, be paid through the issuance of our common stock.

Each of our Nonemployee Directors is also entitled to receive common stock with a total value of approximately $150,000 for annual service on our Board. The shares are issued in equal quarterly installments with the number of shares being determined using the rolling average of the closing price of our common stock during the last 10 trading days leading up to, and including, the 15th day of the last month of each quarterly period. Each of these shares is fully vested on the date of issuance. Where our Nonemployee Directors elect to be paid their annual cash retainer fees in shares of our common stock, the number of shares to be issued is calculated using the same valuation methodology.

Nonemployee Directors are reimbursed for any reasonable Board-related expenses. Nonemployee Directors also receive product discounts, which are generally available to our employees and, from time to time, may receive products without charge in order to help expand the directors’ knowledge of our products.

Director Compensation Table

The following table sets forth all compensation paid or awarded to our Nonemployee Directors during fiscal year 2022. The amounts set forth in the table have been calculated in accordance with applicable SEC rules, and do not necessarily reflect the amounts that have actually been paid to, or which may be realized by, our Nonemployee Directors.

In addition, each director must hold shares of our common stock within one year of joining our Board. Any shares of common stock held by Nonemployee Directors through our Deferred Stock Unit Compensation Plan are counted as stock ownership for purposes of these guidelines.

The Committee periodically reviews our directors' compliance with the Stock Ownership Guidelines.

AUDIT & RISK MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit & Risk Management Committee of our Board of Directors is responsible for providing independent, objective oversight of, among other things, our financial reporting functions, our independent registered public accounting firm, our highest ranking manager of internal audit, our system of internal controls, our legal and regulatory compliance, and compliance with our related person transaction policy and Code of Ethics. The Audit & Risk Management Committee is currently composed of four directors, each of whom meets the independence and experience requirements under applicable NYSE rules, as well as the independence requirements applicable to Audit & Risk Management Committee members under applicable SEC rules. In addition, our Board of Directors has determined that the Chair of the Audit & Risk Management Committee qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” under applicable SEC rules.

Management is responsible for the preparation of our financial statements and financial reporting process, including our system of internal controls. KPMG LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, is responsible for performing an independent audit of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), or the PCAOB, and expressing (i) an opinion on whether our consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position and results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with US generally accepted accounting principles, and (ii) an opinion on whether we have maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2022, based on criteria established in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Audit & Risk Management Committee’s responsibility is to monitor and oversee these processes.

In connection with these responsibilities, the Audit & Risk Management Committee met with management and KPMG LLP to review and discuss the March 31, 2022 consolidated financial statements and obtained from management their representation that our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, management represented that, as of March 31, 2022, our Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting.

The Audit & Risk Management Committee also discussed with KPMG LLP the matters required by Auditing Standard No. 1301, “Communications with Audit Committees” of the PCAOB, which includes, among other items, information regarding the conduct of the integrated audit of our consolidated financial statements. The Audit & Risk Management Committee has further considered the compatibility of the services provided by KPMG LLP with KPMG LLP’s independence.

The Audit & Risk Management Committee operates under a written charter, which was adopted by our Board of Directors and is assessed annually for adequacy by the Audit & Risk Management Committee. The Audit & Risk Management Committee held eleven meetings during fiscal year 2022, including meetings with KPMG LLP and our highest ranking manager of internal audit, both with and without management present. In performing its functions, the Audit & Risk Management Committee acts only in an oversight capacity. It is not the responsibility of the Audit & Risk Management Committee to determine that our financial statements are complete and accurate, are presented in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles or present fairly our results of operations for the periods presented, or that we maintain appropriate internal controls. Furthermore, the Audit & Risk Management Committee’s oversight responsibilities do not independently assure that the audit of our financial statements has been carried out in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB or that our registered public accounting firm is independent.

Based upon the Audit & Risk Management Committee’s review and discussions with management and KPMG LLP, and subject to the limitations of the Audit & Risk Management Committee’s role and responsibilities referred to above and in the Audit & Risk Management Committee charter, the Audit & Risk Management Committee recommended that our Board of Directors include the audited consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2022, which was filed with the SEC on May 27, 2022.

The Audit & Risk Management Committee Report shall not be deemed incorporated by reference by any general statement incorporating by reference this Proxy Statement into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Acts, except to the extent that our Company specifically incorporates this information by reference, and shall not otherwise be deemed filed under the Acts.

RELATED-PERSON TRANSACTIONS

Our legal department is primarily responsible for identifying and reviewing relationships and transactions in which our Company and our directors, director nominees, executive officers, principal stockholders, or any of their respective immediate family members, are participants to determine whether any of these related persons had or will have a direct or indirect material interest in such transactions. In order to assist in identifying potential related-person transactions, our legal department annually prepares and distributes to all directors, director nominees and executive officers a detailed written questionnaire which includes questions intended to elicit information about any current or proposed related-person transactions. In addition, our Code of Ethics addresses conflicts of interest where an individual’s personal interests may interfere or conflict with the interests of our Company, including relationships with suppliers, customers or competitors. Conflicts of interest which might impair (or appear to impair) the exercise of judgment solely for the benefit of our Company and our stockholders are prohibited. In general, such conflicts must be approved by our legal department, the employee’s supervisor or, in the case of directors, the Audit & Risk Management Committee. Information regarding potential conflicts of interest in violation of our Code of Ethics may be reported to our anonymous reporting hotline, which may be accessed by the Chair of the Audit & Risk Management Committee, the Chairman of our Board and our highest ranking manager of internal audit.

If a related-person transaction is identified by our legal department as one which would be required to be publicly reported pursuant to applicable SEC rules, the Audit & Risk Management Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving or ratifying any such transaction. The Audit & Risk Management Committee may approve a related person transaction when, in its good faith judgment, it determines that the transaction is in the best interests of our Company and our stockholders.

There were no transactions with related persons that required disclosure under applicable SEC rules during fiscal year 2022, and no such transactions are currently proposed.

PROPOSAL NO. 2
RATIFICATION OF THE SELECTION OF KPMG LLP AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

For fiscal year 2022, KPMG LLP, or KPMG, provided audit services, which included an examination of the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report. The Audit & Risk Management Committee has selected KPMG to provide audit services to our Company for fiscal year 2023, which covers the period from April 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023. We are asking that our stockholders ratify this selection at the Annual Meeting.

Ratification of the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm is not required to be submitted to a vote of our stockholders by our Bylaws or applicable SEC rules, however the Audit & Risk Management Committee believes it is appropriate as a matter of good corporate governance practice. If our stockholders do not ratify the selection, the Audit & Risk Management Committee will consider the selection of another independent registered public accounting firm, but is not required to select a different firm. In addition, even if our stockholders ratify the selection, the Audit & Risk Management Committee will retain the discretion to select a different independent registered public accounting firm in the future if it believes doing so is in the best interests of our Company and stockholders.

A representative of KPMG will attend the Annual Meeting and will have the opportunity to make a statement and/or respond to appropriate questions from stockholders present at the Annual Meeting.

Fees for Services Rendered by Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The following table sets forth approximate fees for services rendered by KPMG for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:

Audit & Risk Management Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

In accordance with its policies and procedures, prior to engagement, the Audit & Risk Management Committee pre-approves all independent registered public accounting firm services. Specifically, the Audit & Risk Management Committee administers and oversees our engagement of KPMG and pre-approves all of KPMG’s audit and permissible non-audit services on a case-by-case basis. In approving non-audit services, the Audit & Risk Management Committee considers whether the engagement could compromise the independence of KPMG, and whether for reasons of efficiency or convenience it is in our best interests to engage KPMG to perform the services. The Audit & Risk Management Committee has determined that the performance by KPMG of the non-audit services listed above as “Tax Fees” did not affect its independence.

During the year, circumstances may arise under which it may become necessary to engage the independent registered public accounting firm for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval categories.

Required Vote

The ratification of the selection of KPMG as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2023 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares present virtually or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on this proposal at the Annual Meeting (assuming that a quorum is present).

This proposal is considered a "routine" matter under NYSE rules. As a result, a bank, broker, dealer or other nominee may generally vote without instructions on this matter, so we do not expect any broker non-votes in connection with this proposal. Abstentions on this proposal will have the same effect as a vote against this proposal. If no contrary indication is made, returned proxies will be voted "FOR" this proposal.

ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

Background

In accordance with applicable SEC rules, we are providing our stockholders with the opportunity to cast a non-binding advisory Say-on-Pay Vote on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers, as described below. We consider seeking the views of our stockholders on our executive compensation program to be an important part of our decision-making process.

For additional information about our executive compensation program, please refer to the section of this Proxy Statement titled "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" and the related compensation tables and footnotes.

Proposal

In accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are asking our stockholders to approve the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

Because this vote is advisory only, it will not be binding upon our Board of Directors or the Talent & Compensation Committee. However, the Talent & Compensation Committee will take the outcome of the vote into account when considering future executive compensation arrangements.

Required Vote

The approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of the compensation of our Named Executive Officers as described in the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" section of this Proxy Statement requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares present virtually or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on this proposal at the Annual Meeting (assuming that a quorum is present).

This proposal is considered a "non-routine" matter under NYSE rules. As a result, a bank, broker, dealer or other nominee may not vote without instructions on this matter, so there may be broker non-votes in connection with this proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote against this proposal. If no contrary indication is made, returned proxies will be voted "FOR" this proposal.
