Notice of 2022 Annual

Meeting of Stockholders

and Proxy Statement

April 1, 2022

Dear Fellow Stockholders of Gibraltar:

We are pleased to invite you to the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Gibraltar Industries, Inc. to be held on Wednesday, May 4, 2022 at 11:00 A.M., Eastern Time, to be held by a virtual-only format at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/ROCK2022.

The Annual Meeting is critical to our corporate governance process and to affirming the direction of our Company. The accompanying Proxy Statement provides you with important information about our Board of Directors and executive officers. Additionally, the Proxy Statement informs you of steps we are taking to fulfill our responsibilities to you as a stockholder.

William Montague, who has served as Chairman of the Board since 2015 and as a Director since the Company’s initial public offering in 1993, announced his retirement effective as of the 2022 Annual Meeting. We are grateful for Mr. Montague’s tremendous leadership and commitment to Gibraltar over the last 28 years. As part of our Board succession planning, to provide expertise and strategic direction as well as strong independent leadership, the Board of Directors decided to combine the role of Chairman of the Board and CEO and selected a Lead Independent Director, effective January 1, 2022. We are honored to have been nominated and selected to succeed Mr. Montague as Chairman and Lead Independent Director. With the election of our current Board nominees, following the 2022 Annual Meeting and Mr. Montague's retirement, the diversity of the Board will increase to 50%, with women representing 38% of the Board and racial / ethnic diversity representing 25% of our Directors. Our Board has the diversity of experience, skills, and expertise to ensure it will continue its effective oversight of the Company.

Gibraltar generated significant revenue growth in 2021, and while earnings remained strong, they were below expectations as the Company was unable to overcome market headwinds with 80/20, productivity, and price management initiatives. The Company continued to integrate the recent acquisitions and invested in talent and technology while focusing on the health and safety of our team.

The accompanying Proxy Statement provides you with information relating to the proposals that require your vote. If you hold shares through a brokerage firm, please note that your broker cannot vote on most of the proposals to be acted on at the Annual Meeting without your instruction. Your vote is very important to us and we encourage you to vote promptly using one of the voting methods described in the accompanying Proxy Statement. Our Board of Directors recommends that stockholders vote FOR all proposals.

On behalf of our management team and our Board of Directors, we want to thank you for your continued support and confidence in Gibraltar Industries, Inc.

Sincerely,

		William T. Bosway Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer			Atlee Valentine Pope Lead Independent Director

About Gibraltar

Gibraltar is a leading manufacturer and provider of products and services for the renewable energy, residential, agtech, and infrastructure markets. Gibraltar's mission is to make life better for people and the planet, fueled by advancing the disciplines of engineering, science, and technology. Gibraltar is innovating to reshape critical markets in sustainable power, comfortable living, and productive growing throughout North America.

Fiscal Year 2021 Company Performance

Highlights of Gibraltar's 2021 performance include:

NET SALES	GAAP EPS	ADJUSTED EPS
$1.34B	$2.25	$2.78
increased 29.8% from $1.03B in 2020	decreased 11.1% from $2.53 in 2020	increased 1.8% from $2.73 in 2020

Net sales increased by $307.2 million, or 29.8%, to $1.3 billion in 2021. The 29.8% increase in net sales was driven by our Renewables and Residential segments. Net sales generated from our 2020 acquisitions contributed 20.9%, or $215.7 million. Organic growth of 8.9%, or $91.5 million, was a result of both increases in pricing to customers and an increase in volume, the result of strong end market demand and participation gains primarily in our Residential segment.

While GAAP net income and EPS from continuing operations were lower than 2020, largely the result of acquisition-related integration and restructuring initiatives, we generated positive growth in adjusted net income and adjusted EPS. These results were below our expectations, and reflect an environment that pressure-tested our systems and processes, our organization, and our operating paradigms. On an adjusted basis, we were able to improve despite headwinds throughout the year from accelerating inflation and constraints on materials, labor and transportation used in our operations as a result of significant progress made in integrating our businesses, improving systems, and general execution. Additionally, we worked diligently to minimize disruptions from the COVID pandemic and to keep our team safe, particularly in the first and fourth quarters of 2021, when COVID infection rates were at their highest. These same challenging factors led to investments in working capital, primarily an increase in the Company's inventory, largely a result of higher raw material costs and in-bound freight, as compared to prior year, along with higher levels of inventory to meet customer needs.

PROXY SUMMARY

Executive Compensation Highlights
The target annual compensation in fiscal year 2021 for William T. Bosway, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, consisted of base salary, target annual management incentive compensation, including target matching RSUs under the Company's 2018 Management Stock Purchase Plan, a target performance stock units (PSUs), time-vested restricted stock units (RSUs), and other compensation of 401(k) match, health reimbursement account contributions, personal use of Company auto and tax planning. Mr. Bosway's target pay mix for fiscal year 2021 is set forth in the chart. The actual earnings under the performance-based components for Mr. Bosway and our other named executive officers for fiscal year 2021 were as follows:
Annual Management Incentive Compensation Plan (MICP) The named executive officers did not receive any amounts under the annual MICP as the Company did not achieve the threshold level for 2021 of the annual MICP metrics (net sales, adjusted EPS, and days working capital). There were no adjustments made to the performance targets approved by the Board in early 2021. 2021 PSUs The named executive officers did not earn any PSUs for 2021 as the Company did not achieve the threshold level for return on invested capital for the 2021 performance period. There were no adjustments made to the performance targets approved by the Board in early 2021.

Governance Highlights

On October 26, 2021, William P. Montague, who served as the Company's non-executive Chairman of the Board since 2015, tendered notice of his retirement from the Board and from all committees of the Board effective immediately prior to the Annual Meeting. In light of Mr. Montague's retirement, and after consideration of Korn Ferry's assessment of Board Chair succession, the Board unanimously elected Mr. Bosway, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, as Chairman of the Board and director Atlee Valentine Pope as Lead Independent Director, in each case, effective January 1, 2022. The Board of Directors believes combining the role of Chairman of the Board and CEO brings to the Board important expertise and leadership and enhances decisive strategic direction and strong execution. The skills and experience of Gibraltar's CEO are well suited for the role of Chairman, putting the Board in a strong position to oversee strategy development, understand market developments, and manage risk appropriately. The Company's lead independent director has significant authority in facilitating the Board's independent oversight of management, with key duties and responsibilities as further described in the Corporate Governance section of this Proxy Statement.

PROPOSAL 1 - ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

PROPOSAL 1 - ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company provides that the Board of Directors shall consist of not less than three nor more than fifteen directors. The number of directors may be changed at any time by resolution of the Board of Directors. Our Certificate of Incorporation also requires annual election of directors.

At the Annual Meeting, eight directors shall be elected to hold office for a one-year term expiring in until the 2023 Annual Meeting or until a successor has been duly elected and qualified, or until such director's earlier resignation, retirement or other termination of service. Following the recommendation by the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee, the Board of Directors has nominated Mark Barberio, William Bosway, Craig Hindman, Gwendolyn Mizell, Linda Myers, James Nish, Atlee Valentine Pope, and Manish Shah for re-election. The Board of Directors has determined that all nominees, other than Mr. Bosway, our Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, are independent directors under the applicable independence standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") and the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

Our Board of Directors currently has nine directors. On October 26, 2021, William P. Montague tendered notice of his retirement from the Board and from all committees of the Board, effective immediately prior to the 2022 Annual Meeting, which is the end of Mr. Montague's current term, and he will not be standing for re-election at the 2022 Annual Meeting. The Board size will be reduced to eight directors effective immediately prior to the 2022 Annual Meeting.

Unless instructions to the contrary are received, the persons named as proxies in the attached proxy card intend to vote the shares represented by proxies FOR the election of all nominees as directors, each of whom has consented to serve as a director if elected. If any nominee becomes unavailable for election for any reason, the Board may designate a substitute nominee and the persons named as proxies intend to vote the shares represented by the proxies solicited herewith for such other person or persons as the Board of Directors shall designate. Alternatively, the Board may reduce its size.

The Board of Directors believes that directors should satisfy a number of qualifications, including demonstrated integrity, a record of personal accomplishment, and a commitment to participation in board activities. In recommending the nominees for re-election, the Company's Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee considers qualified candidates who will provide the Board of Directors with dedicated service, strong business-related skills and experience, and diversity, as such qualifications are described below under the caption "Director Nomination Process." The table below summarizes the key experience, qualifications, and attributes for each director nominee and highlights the balanced mix of experience, qualifications, and attributes of the Board as a whole. The Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee considered these qualifications in determining to recommend to the Board of Directors that the current directors be nominated for re-election. This high-level summary is not intended to be an exhaustive list of each director nominee's skills or contributions to the Board. No individual experience, qualification, or attribute was solely determinative in the Board's decision to re-elect any of the eight nominees.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Board of Directors is responsible for oversight of management of the business and affairs of the Company with the objective of enhancing stockholder value. The Company has corporate governance practices and policies which the Board of Directors follows with respect to various matters, such as director responsibilities, compensation, and access to management. The Company’s corporate governance documents are available under the Governance Documents section of the Corporate Governance page of the Company’s website at www.gibraltar1.com.

Board Refreshment

On February 24, 2021, the Board of Directors appointed Gwendolyn G. Mizell and Manish H. Shah as members of the Board of Directors after completing a search for nominees performed by the Board. Ms. Mizell was identified through a third-party search firm, and Mr. Shah was proposed by a non-management director. The Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee interviewed board candidates and recommended to the full Board of Directors the appointment of Ms. Mizell and Mr. Shah as members of the Board. In conjunction with the appointments of Ms. Mizell and Mr. Shah, the Company also announced the retirement of Sharon M. Brady and Vinod M. Khilnani, each of whom served for the remainder of their terms and did not stand for re-election at the 2021 Annual Meeting.

Board Leadership

On October 26, 2021, William P. Montague, who served as the Company's non-executive Chairman of the Board since 2015, tendered notice of his retirement from the Board and from all committees of the Board effective immediately prior to the Annual Meeting. In light of Mr. Montague's retirement, and after consideration of Korn Ferry's assessment of Board Chair succession, the Board unanimously elected Mr. Bosway, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, as Chairman of the Board and director Atlee Valentine Pope as Lead Independent Director, in each case, effective January 1, 2022. Additionally, in connection with the appointment of Ms. Pope as Lead Independent Director, Linda K. Myers was appointed as chair of the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee.

BOARD CHAIR William T. Bosway has served as President, Chief Executive Officer and a Director of the Company since January 2019, and Chairman of the Board of Directors since January 2022.

LEAD INDEPENDENT DIRECTOR Atlee Valentine Pope has served as a Director of the Company since February 2020 and Chair of the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee from January 2021 to December 2021, and Lead Independent Director since January 2022.

The Board of Directors does not have a policy as to whether the roles of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer should be separate or combined and as such has the authority and flexibility to select the appropriate leadership structure for the Company at the time. Under the Company’s Bylaws, the Chairman of the Board presides over meetings of the Board of Directors and meetings of the stockholders, while the CEO has general authority for strategic initiatives involving the business and operational affairs of the Company, subject to the supervision and oversight of the Board.

13

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Currently, the Company's leadership structure includes the combined role of Chairman of the Board and CEO, held by Mr. Bosway. The Board of Directors believes combining the role of Chairman of the Board and CEO brings to the Board important expertise and leadership and enhances decisive strategic direction and strong execution. The skills and experience of Mr. Bosway are well suited for the role of Chairman, putting the Board in a strong position to oversee strategy development, understand market developments, and mitigate risk appropriately. The independent directors of the Board have determined, after consultation with Korn Ferry, that having a combined role of Chairman of the Board and CEO is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

To ensure strong independent leadership on the Board, under the Company's corporate governance guidelines, if the roles of Chair of the Board and the CEO are combined, the independent directors annually appoint a Lead Independent Director to strengthen the Board's independent oversight of the policies and strategies of the Company's management. The Company's Lead Independent Director has significant authority in facilitating the Board's independent oversight of management, with key duties and responsibilities including:

•Preside at all meetings of the Board at which the Board Chair is not present

•Collaborate with the Board Chair in determining the need for special meetings of the Board

•Call meetings or executive sessions of the independent members of the Board

•Preside at all executive sessions of the independent members of the Board

•Act as principal liaison between the Board Chair and the independent members of the Board relating to matters which are not the responsibility of any of the standing committees of the Board

•Consult with the Board Chair regarding topics to be considered at Board meetings and information provided with respect to such topics

•Approve Board meeting agendas

•Consult with the Board Chair regarding engagement of consultants by the Board

•Be available for direct communication with major stockholders or other major stakeholders, in consultation with management and the Chair of the applicable Board Committee, as appropriate

The Board believes that an effective Lead Independent Director, such as Ms. Pope, who has significant and clear delineated responsibilities above, ensures strong, independent oversight of management and promotes effective governance and Board efficiency. The Board believes that this leadership structure ensures that each director's experience, knowledge and insight is leveraged to provide strategic guidance in a demanding and rapidly changing business environment. In addition, the independent directors of our Board meet in executive session at each quarterly board meeting, and all of the Board’s key committees - the Audit and Risk Committee; the Capital Structure and Asset Management Committee; the Compensation and Human Capital Committee; and the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee - are comprised solely of and led by independent directors.

Board Retirement Policy and Tenure

Our corporate governance guidelines require our non-employee directors to submit an offer to resign from the Board to the Chair of the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee upon reaching the age of 72, and following each succeeding birthday. We do not have any other tenure limitations, as we believe our retirement policy and succession planning to replace natural turnover achieve the appropriate balance between maintaining long-term directors with deep institutional knowledge and refreshing the Board with new directors who bring new perspectives and diversity to the Board. Whenever possible, we structure director retirements and new director appointments to overlap so institutional knowledge can be transferred to new directors.

As of March 22, 2022, the Company's average tenure for directors standing for election is three years of service.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Risk Oversight and Management

The Board of Directors is actively engaged in the oversight of strategies adopted by management for mitigating risks faced by the Company. The effective oversight of risks to which the Company may be exposed requires an understanding of the nature of the risks, the steps management is taking to manage the risks, and a determination of the level of risk which is acceptable to the Company. The involvement of the Board of Directors in reviewing the Company’s enterprise risk management process provides the Board an opportunity to understand the risks faced by the Company and the prioritization of the risks, the strategies being implemented by management to minimize these risks and the level of management’s tolerance for risk. With this understanding the Board is able to, if appropriate, require changes in the Company’s operations or strategies to reflect the Board’s determination of the appropriate level of risk for the Company.

Risks may arise in many different areas, including, among many others, business strategy; financial condition; competition for talent; operational efficiency; electronic data security; cyber-security; quality assurance; environmental, health, and safety; supply chain management; reputation; business interruptions or disasters; customer spending patterns; and intellectual property. The Board of Directors believes that, in light of the interrelated nature of the Company’s risks, oversight of risk management is ultimately the responsibility of the full Board. While the Board retains ultimate responsibility for oversight of the risks affecting the Company, the Audit and Risk Committee has responsibility for assisting the Board in the review and oversight of risks affecting the Company and risk management strategies developed by management. In addition, committees assist the Board in overseeing and reviewing risk relating to specific programs. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviews compensation program structure and design and the related risks and opportunities. The Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee oversees the Company's governance policies, Board structure, leadership and independence. In carrying out this critical responsibility, the Board has implemented an enterprise risk management program designed to:

•Understand the critical risks in the Company's business and strategy and risk mitigation strategies;

•Evaluate the Company’s risk management process and whether it functions adequately;

•Facilitate open communication between management and the Directors; and

•Foster an appropriate culture of integrity and risk awareness.

The Board discusses risk in general terms throughout the year at its meetings as well as risks in relation to specific proposed actions. While the Board oversees the enterprise risk management process, management is responsible for implementing and executing controls designed to limit risk to the level deemed to be acceptable to the Board. The Company has internal processes and an effective internal control environment which facilitate the identification and management of risks and the quality and effectiveness of the risk related communications with the Board. These include an enterprise risk management program under the leadership of our Chief Financial Officer and our Vice President of Internal Audit, regular reports from management on business strategy, a Code of Business Conduct, and product quality standards. Management communicates routinely with members of the Board on the significant risks identified and how they are being managed.

Information Security Risk Oversight

The Board of Directors recognizes the importance of maintaining the trust and confidence of our customers, employees, and trading partners, while simultaneously preserving the integrity of our Company's information systems. To those ends, the Board of Directors is responsible for the oversight of the Company's information security risk management. To more effectively prevent, monitor, detect, and respond to information security threats, the Company has a dedicated Cyber Security leader reporting directly to the Company's Chief Digital Information Officer. The Cyber Security team is responsible for leading enterprise-wide information security strategy and developing awareness, training, policy, standards, architecture, and processes. The Board of Directors is briefed quarterly by senior management on projects to strengthen the Company's cybersecurity controls, assessments of the Company's security program, and the state of our current cybersecurity monitoring.

15

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Stockholder Engagement

The Company’s executive management team routinely meets with its stockholders to discuss the Company’s performance and strategic plan. Further, our executive management team leads stockholder outreach engagements, where we solicit feedback from stockholders on their priorities on corporate governance, compensation, and environmental and social matters.

Our executive management team is committed to continuing a formal stockholder outreach program. Additionally, our executive management team, including the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Financial Officer, regularly engage in meaningful dialogue with the Company’s stockholders through our quarterly earnings calls, investor conferences, 2021 investor day and other channels for communication.

In late 2021, as part of corporate social responsibility priority assessment, we reached out to stockholders owning nearly 75% of our outstanding common stock as of December 31, 2021 to provide an opportunity for one-on-one discussions with representatives of our management team. Our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Vice President and Treasurer, met with stockholders who expressed an interest to meet and who represented ownership of approximately 18% of our outstanding common stock as of December 31, 2021. These stockholders expressed appreciation for our proactive engagement and open dialogue. Our discussions covered a broad range of corporate social responsibility topics, including our corporate social responsibility efforts and journey, and recommendations for our corporate social responsibility disclosures and communication.

Independence of Directors

The Board of Directors has determined that each of Mark Barberio, Craig Hindman, William Montague, Gwendolyn Mizell, Linda Myers, James Nish, Atlee Valentine Pope, and Manish Shah is an “independent director” as defined under, the rules of Nasdaq and the SEC, which the Board has adopted as the standards by which it will determine independence. William Bosway serves as the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer and therefore is not an independent director.

Each member of the Audit and Risk Committee, the Capital Structure and Asset Management Committee, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee, and the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee is independent under Nasdaq rules. In addition, the Board of Directors has affirmatively determined that the members of the Audit Committee and Compensation and Human Capital Committee qualify as independent in accordance with the additional independence rules established by the SEC and Nasdaq.

Board Committees and Related Matters

Our Board of Directors has four standing committees - the Audit and Risk Committee, the Capital Structure and Asset Management Committee, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee, and the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee. Copies of the charters of these committees are available on the Company’s website at www.gibraltar1.com.

•to develop and recommend to the Board a set of corporate governance guidelines for the Company;

•to provide oversight and strategic guidance on environmental, social and governance matters significant to the Company; and

•to oversee, review, and make periodic recommendations to the Board concerning the Company’s corporate governance guidelines and policies.

In support of these purposes, the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee oversees the directors’ continuing education, which includes seminars focused on strategic and governance issues.

Effective February 24, 2021, the committee amended and restated its charter to rename the committee the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee to appropriately reflect the committee's ongoing responsibilities in overseeing and providing strategic guidance on environmental, social and governance matters significant to the Company.

Director Nomination Process

When the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee recruits new director candidates, the committee seeks to identify candidates for nomination who are highly qualified, willing to serve as a member of the Company’s Board and will be able to serve the best interests of stockholders. The Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee considers the following when identifying new director candidates:

•Each candidate will exhibit integrity, high personal and professional ethics, mature judgment;

•Whether a candidate is “independent” within the meaning of such term in accordance with the applicable listing standards of Nasdaq and the rules promulgated by the SEC; and

•Each candidate will possess a diversity of background and achievement including in business, government, education and technology as relevant to the Company’s strategic needs and desire to have a diverse board composition.

20

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee believes that, given the size and complexity of the Company’s operations, the best interests of the Company’s stockholders will be served by a Board which is composed of individuals that contribute to the Board’s overall diversity - diversity being broadly construed to mean a variety of opinions, perspectives, as well as personal and professional experiences and backgrounds. Accordingly, the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee seeks to identify candidates for nomination who will contribute to the diversity of perspectives present in Board deliberations. During the nomination process, the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee considers whether the Board’s composition reflects an appropriately diverse mix of skills and experience in relation to the needs of the Company.

The Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee identifies candidates from several sources including directors on the Board, Gibraltar’s executive management team, search firms and research, including database and internet searches. All potential candidates for a director role, including directors being nominated for re-election, are considered and evaluated against the qualifications outlined above.

Stockholder Recommendations of Nominees

The Company has adopted a policy regarding stockholder recommendations of nominees for director to be submitted for evaluation to the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee. A stockholder may, at any time prior to the deadline for the submission of stockholder proposals, recommend a nominee for consideration by the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee by sending a recommendation, in writing, to the Secretary of the Company or any member of the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee, together with such supporting material as the stockholder deems appropriate. Any person recommended by a stockholder in accordance with this policy will be considered by the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee in the same manner and by the same criteria as other potential nominees.

During 2021, the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee did not receive any nomination recommendations from stockholders.

Succession Planning

Considering the critical importance of executive leadership to Gibraltar’s success, we have a succession planning process that is enterprise-wide for managers up to and including our Chief Executive Officer. Our Board of Directors’ involvement in the process includes a review of succession plans and recommendations as to succession in the event of each executive officer’s termination of employment for any reason.

Our Chief Executive Officer provides an annual review to the Board of Directors assessing the performance of the executive officers of Gibraltar. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee, pursuant to its charter, annually reviews the performance of the executive officers and discusses succession plans for each such officer with the Chief Executive Officer. The Board of Directors has the responsibility to review succession plans for the Chief Executive Officer and other key executive positions.

The Board of Directors and the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee also work together to assess the composition, tenure, and diversity of the Board of Directors and evaluate succession planning considerations when recommending Board nominees.

Director Education

New directors participate in an orientation process to become familiar with the Company. This process includes a review of the Company's strategic plans and businesses, significant financial matters, core values, including ethics, compliance, corporate governance practices and other key policies and practices through a review of Company and Board of Director background materials, and meetings with the Company’s executive management and visits to the Company.

Each Director is required to complete the Company's annual ethics and compliance and cyber security training which is approximately 12.5 hours per year. The Company is committed to providing directors with opportunities and resources for continuing education for corporate governance and business-related issues as may be appropriate and regularly has third parties provide presentations on relevant topics during board meetings, and through the Board's membership in the National Association of Corporate Directors.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

Our Compensation and Human Capital Committee engaged Korn Ferry, a nationally recognized compensation consultant, to review survey information, and provide other publicly available information and advice to the Compensation and Human Capital Committee with respect to compensation-related matters for non-employee director compensation for a peer group of companies. The peer group is the same as the peer group disclosed in the section entitled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” below.

Non-Employee Director Compensation Program

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviewed information provided by Korn Ferry relating to Board compensation in relation to compensation earned by the directors of our peer group of companies. After this review in April 2021, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee approved a compensation program for non-employee directors consisting of the following cash compensation, effective as of May 5, 2021, which reflected a $5,000 increase in the annual cash retainer for Board services:

•an annual cash retainer of $65,000;

•an annual payment for each Board committee on which he or she serves equal to $10,000;

•an additional annual fee of $100,000 for the non-executive Chair of the Board, if any;

•an additional annual fee to the Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee of $10,000;

•an additional annual fee to the Chair of the Compensation and Human Capital Committee of $7,500;

•an additional annual fee to the Chair of the Capital Structure and Asset Management Committee of $7,500; and

•an additional annual fee to the Chair of the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee of $5,000.

All retainers are paid quarterly in arrears unless deferred under the MSPP as describe below. In addition, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee approved annual grants of stock to each non-employee director having an aggregate fair value equal to $105,000, which reflects a $10,000 increase in aggregate fair value compared to the 2020 annual grant. These shares vest immediately and are delivered to directors unless a Director elects to defer for future issuance the receipt of all or a portion of the stock award received. Pursuant to this approval, non-employee directors received awards of stock in May 2021. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee determined that the modest increases in cash and equity compensation were appropriate to more closely approximate the 50th percentile of the peer group.

In connection with the appointment of our Lead Independent Director, and in consultation with Korn Ferry, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee approved a $25,000 annual fee for this position, effective January 1, 2022.

The Company does not provide any perquisites to directors, but does reimburse directors for out-of-pocket expenses incurred for continuing education and in attending Board and committee meetings. Directors who are employees or officers of the Company do not receive any additional compensation for Board services.

Management Stock Purchase Plan for Non-Employee Directors

Our Management Stock Purchase Plan (“MSPP”) permits non-employee directors to defer their receipt of payment of a portion of their cash retainer to an account established for the Director and credited with restricted stock units (“RSUs”) equal in number to the number of shares of the Company’s stock which could have been purchased using the amount of director fees deferred. RSUs credited to the account of non-employee directors to reflect amounts deferred under the MSPP are paid to the participants upon the termination of their service to the Board.

Under the MSPP, the amount deferred and to be paid to a non-employee director upon termination of his or her service on the Board is equal to the hypothetical investments credited to his or her account plus the total number of RSUs in his or her account, multiplied by the 200-day rolling average price per share of the Company’s stock, determined as of the immediately preceding calendar-month's end date immediately preceding the date the participant becomes eligible to receive a distribution of his or her account under the MSPP.

24

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

Payment of the amount determined above is made to the non-employee director based on an election made by the non-employee director prior to the deferral in either (a) a lump sum, (b) five substantially equal annual installments, or (c) ten substantially equal annual installments, in each case, beginning six months after the date of termination. During the period that the installment payments are being made, the undistributed value of the non-employee director's account will earn interest at a rate equal to the average annualized rate of interest payable on ten-year US Treasury Notes plus two percent (2%).

Deferral Plan for Non-Employee Directors

Non-employee directors have the right to defer receipt of all, or a portion, of the stock award that they receive. Deferred awards are issued six months after termination of the non-employee director's service.

Non-Employee Director Stock Ownership Guidelines

In accordance with the Company's Stock Ownership Policy, non-employee directors are required to hold 350% of their retainer in shares of the Company's common stock or other permitted equity interest within three years of joining the Board. For purposes of determining value of shares held, shares include common stock owned by the non-employee director, including those owned by spouse and/or minor children, deferred share units, and restricted stock units settled in the Company's common stock. The value of shares held is determined based on current fair market value.

PROPOSAL 2 - ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

(“SAY-ON-PAY”)

We are providing our stockholders with the opportunity to cast an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers as described in this Proxy Statement (commonly referred to as the “Say-on-Pay” vote) as required pursuant to Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Say-on-Pay vote is advisory, and therefore not binding on the Company or the Compensation and Human Capital Committee. However, the outcome of the vote will provide information to the Company and the Compensation and Human Capital Committee regarding stockholder sentiment about our compensation policies and procedures, which the Compensation and Human Capital Committee will carefully review and consider when making future decisions regarding the compensation of our executive officers. Stockholders are encouraged to read the section below entitled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” which describes how our compensation policies and procedures implement our compensation philosophy.

In a non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of the say-on-pay proposal held at our 2017 annual meeting of stockholders, a majority of stockholders voted in favor of holding say-on-pay votes annually. In light of this result and other factors considered by the Board, the Board determined that the Company would hold advisory say-on-pay votes on an annual basis until the next required advisory vote on such frequency, which must be held no later than 2023.

Our Compensation and Human Capital Committee has designed our executive compensation program to link pay with performance, and enable the Company to attract and retain qualified talent on the executive management team. We believe the Say-on-Pay vote represents an additional means by which our Compensation and Human Capital Committee may obtain important feedback from our stockholders about the executive compensation program it has designed for our executive officers.

As set forth in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the overall objective of our executive compensation program is to attract and retain the talent necessary to ensure Gibraltar’s continued success and to ensure alignment of executive pay with stockholder interests and support Company goals and strategies. To achieve this, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee has designed compensation programs that:

•Provide competitive total pay opportunity levels relative to an appropriate group of our peer companies;

•Drive high performance by our executive officers through the use of programs that support and reward desired business results;

•Provide opportunities for high performing executive officers to achieve above market rewards;

•Reinforce our commitment to operational excellence, quality, safety, innovation, and to the environment;

•Manage current and future programs and risks; and

•Provide the flexibility to vary compensation costs through periods of change in our business.

A significant portion of the total compensation of our executive officers is performance-based, in that it depends on the achievement of both short and long-term financial goals and strategic objectives. Additionally, by using our common stock as long-term incentive compensation, we incentivize the establishment and implementation of policies and programs which will improve the price of our stock.

28

PROPOSAL 2 - ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ("SAY-ON-PAY")

In 2021, performance-based compensation represented 63% of our Chief Executive Officer’s targeted total compensation and an average of 47% of the targeted total compensation of our other named executive officers. We believe that this emphasis on both short and long-term financial performance in our compensation structure aligns executives’ and stockholders’ interests. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes that the executive compensation program is closely aligned with the long-term interests of our stockholders and is effective in implementing our compensation philosophy and in achieving our strategic goals.

The Say-on-Pay vote gives you, as a stockholder, the opportunity to provide feedback on our executive compensation program by voting for or against the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the stockholders of Gibraltar Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed in this Definitive Proxy Statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the Summary Compensation Table, and other related tables and disclosure.”

The Board urges stockholders to endorse the executive compensation program by voting in favor of this resolution. As set forth below in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee is of the view that the executive compensation for 2021 was reasonable and appropriate, justified by the performance of the Company and the result of a carefully considered approach.

Although the Say-on-Pay vote is non-binding, the Board of Directors and Compensation and Human Capital Committee will carefully consider the outcome of the Say-on-Pay vote, as well as other communications from stockholders relating to our compensation practices, in future determinations concerning our executive compensation program.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE ADVISORY APPROVAL OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AS DISCLOSED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT IN PROPOSAL 2.

DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE COMPANY

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis (“CD&A”) describes the compensation program and compensation philosophy regarding our Named Executive Officers (“NEOs”) for the 2021 fiscal year. Our NEOs for fiscal 2021 included:

Named Executive Officer	Title
William T. Bosway	President and Chief Executive Officer
Patrick M. Burns	Chief Operating Officer
Timothy F. Murphy	Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
Elizabeth R. Jensen	Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer
Jeffrey J. Watorek	Vice President and Treasurer

Executive Summary

Our compensation program is based on a pay-for-performance philosophy and is designed to attract and retain qualified talented executives who create compounding and sustainable value to our stockholders through the achievement of the Company's strategy built on three core pillars: Business Systems, Portfolio Management, and Organization Development.

2021 Performance and Results

Net sales increased by $307.2 million, or 29.8%, to $1.3 billion in 2021. The 29.8% increase in net sales was driven by our Renewables and Residential segments. Net sales generated from our 2020 acquisitions contributed 20.9%, or $215.7 million. Organic growth of 8.9%, or $91.5 million, was a result of both increases in pricing to customers and an increase in volume, the result of strong end market demand and participation gains primarily in our Residential segment.

While GAAP net income and EPS from continuing operations were lower than 2020, largely the result of acquisition-related integration and restructuring initiatives, we generated positive growth in adjusted net income and adjusted EPS. These results were below our expectations, and reflect an environment that pressure-tested our systems and processes, our organization, and our operating paradigms. On an adjusted basis, we were able to improve despite headwinds throughout the year from accelerating inflation and constraints on materials, labor and transportation used in our operations as a result of significant progress made in integrating our businesses, improving systems, and general execution. Additionally, we worked diligently to minimize disruptions from the COVID pandemic and to keep our team safe, particularly in the first and fourth quarters of 2021, when COVID infection rates were at their highest. These same challenging factors led to investments in working capital, primarily an increase in the Company's inventory, largely a result of higher raw material costs and in-bound freight, as compared to prior year, along with higher levels of inventory to meet customer needs.

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee set 2021 targets at levels that exceeded 2020 actual results, with the exception of 2021 ROIC which was set below 2020 actual ROIC. ROIC targets were set below the achieved level of 2020 to reflect the impact of the acquisitions made during 2020, and the recognition that there is an initial negative impact to ROIC before an acquisition is fully integrated. The Company's financial results did not meet the threshold amounts set in either the MICP or PSU programs, and therefore no amounts were earned under these programs in 2021.

COVID-19 and Supply Chain Impacts on Performance Targets

The performance targets for 2021 were approved by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee in February 2021 and no adjustments were made to the performance targets during fiscal year 2021.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Executive Compensation Highlights

Gibraltar is committed to a philosophy that is heavily weighted toward pay-for-performance. Some of the best practices we employ to achieve this objective include:

What We Do		What We Don’t Do
	Deliver a significant portion of executive compensation in the form of at-risk, performance-based compensation	X	Have single-trigger change-in-control agreements
	Set performance goals for stock-based incentives on ROIC based in part on consultation with significant stockholders	X	Provide double-trigger change-in-control cash benefits greater than 275% of cash compensation
	Limit the maximum payout that can be received in our annual cash incentive plan to 200% of target	X	Maintain a supplemental executive retirement plan
	Reward certain executives with performance-based compensation awards linked to relative total stockholder return	X	Allow our directors and employees to enter into hedging and pledging transactions with Gibraltar stock
	Require our directors and executive officers to satisfy stock ownership guidelines	X	Provide excise tax gross-ups upon a change in control
	Engage in a rigorous target-setting process and use multiple performance metrics for the annual cash incentive plan	X	Provide tax gross-ups on executive benefits and perquisites
	Maintain a Clawback Provision that applies to our named executive officers	X	Grant discounted stock options or, reload or re-price stock options without stockholder approval
	Reasonable use of executive perquisites
	Focus on mitigating undue risk in compensation programs

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes that the Company’s pay-for-performance philosophy and commitment to compensation programs that encourage the creation of sustainable, long-term stockholder value and alignment of the interests of the named executive officers with those of our stockholders have been successful in encouraging consistent improvement in the Company’s operating results.

The summary above, as well as the information contained in this CD&A, reflects the Compensation and Human Capital Committee’s aim to design a compensation program that fairly rewards our executive officers based on performance that is consistent with best practices and in line with pay practices used by our peer group.

Say-on-Pay Vote Results and Response

Based on the results of the Say-on-Pay vote at the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, in which Gibraltar received 92.8% support from its stockholders, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee concluded that the vast majority of stockholders supported the Company’s compensation programs. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee therefore determined that is was not necessary to make any material changes to our executive compensation program for 2021 as a result of the Say-on-Pay vote.

31

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Compensation Philosophy and Pay-for-Performance

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee’s executive pay philosophy is designed to promote alignment of executive pay with stockholder interests and to support Company goals and strategies. Executive compensation programs are designed and managed to promote value creation, to advance overall business objectives, to attract and retain the workforce necessary to ensure the Company’s continued success, and to support Gibraltar’s position as a leading manufacturer and provider of products and services for renewable energy, residential, agtech and infrastructure markets. From time to time, the executive pay philosophy may be adjusted as necessary, to ensure alignment of executive pay with stockholder interests and to support the Company’s goals and strategies.

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee focuses the design and delivery of the Company’s compensation programs to achieve the following:

•Provide competitive total pay opportunity levels relative to an appropriate group of our peer companies;

•Drive high performance by our executive officers through the use of programs that support and reward desired business results;

•Provide opportunities for high performing executive officers to achieve above market rewards;

•Reinforce our commitment to operational excellence, quality, safety, innovation, and to the environment;

•Manage current and future programs and risks; and

•Provide the flexibility to vary compensation costs through periods of change in our business.

We believe our named executive officer’s interests are more directly aligned with the interests of our stockholders when compensation programs are significantly aligned with and impacted by the value of our Common Stock, encourage ownership of our Common Stock, and reward both short and long-term financial performance. The significant elements of our compensation program for executive officers include base salary, the annual Management Incentive Compensation Plan (“MICP”), equity-based incentive compensation under the Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”), other perquisites, and non-qualified, equity-based deferred compensation plan (“2018 MSPP”).

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes our LTIP, which includes performance-based and time-based equity awards, furthers the objectives noted above and directly aligns with the interest of our stockholders. Another element of our compensation program, the MICP, provides an annual incentive program to our executives which is based upon the achievement of financial and strategic goals. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes the other elements of our compensation program are competitive with the market for our management talent and allow us to attract and retain a highly qualified senior management team. As a result, the compensation programs include a substantial portion of performance-based compensation, including the MICP and performance-based equity awards issued under the LTIP.

Consistent with our executive pay philosophy, our CEO’s target compensation is designed to be heavily weighted toward performance-based compensation. During 2021, as depicted in the following chart, 63% of our CEO’s target compensation was provided in the form of performance-based compensation, with an additional 19% attributed to time-vested stock awards. During 2021, on average, 47% of our other NEOs compensation was performance-based compensation, with another 11% attributed to time-vested stock awards. The long-term value of time-vested stock awards will fluctuate with our stock price, thus aligning our executive officers’ interests with our stockholders’ interests.

The following charts highlight the targeted compensation mix for our CEO and the average mix for the other NEOs in 2021:

32

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

CEO 2021 Annual Target Compensation	Other NEOs Average 2021 Annual Target Compensation
"At Risk" Performance-Based Compensation 63%	"At Risk" Performance-Based Compensation 47%

Performance-based compensation consists of annual incentive compensation and performance-based equity awards. A significant portion of the executive officers’ compensation is at-risk based on the value of the Company’s common stock and financial performance. The above charts include targeted compensation generated from the Company match, assuming full allowable amount eligible to be deferred, which is provided for salary and MICP deferrals into our non-qualified deferred compensation plans, and is an important part of our compensation program. Compensation deferred into the 2018 MSPP and any amounts that are matched, are converted to restricted stock units and are also at-risk, since they are based on the value of the Company’s Common Stock. The structure of our non-qualified deferred compensation plans furthers our goal of aligning the interest of our executive officers with the interests of our stockholders as it encourages the deferral of their current compensation for a future payment based on the Company’s future stock price.

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes the structure of the MICP incentivizes management to simplify and improve the Company’s operations to generate higher earnings, at a higher rate of return, with a more efficient use of capital.

The other significant components of compensation for our executive officers are not at-risk and consist of a competitive base salary and long-term incentive compensation consisting of time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”). The RSUs convert to shares over a vesting period generally consisting of four years. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes the RSU awards align the executive officers’ goals with the interests of our stockholders as the officers are incentivized to adopt a long-term approach to value creation and increase the stock price through ownership of RSUs and shares of the Company’s common stock. We believe time-based equity awards provide a good balance between performance and share ownership which aligns with long term interests of our stockholders while at the same time encouraging continuity of our executive management.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Distinguishing Awarded Compensation from Realized Compensation

It is important to distinguish the compensation awarded to our named executive officers in 2021, as required to be reported under applicable SEC rules, from the compensation that was actually earned by our named executive officers. Compensation reported within the Summary Compensation Table uses different measurements of the compensation reported depending on the type of compensation. The PSU compensation reported for each executive officer is disclosed at targeted award value, or grant-date fair value, while the compensation from the MICP reported in the table reflects the actual amount earned and paid to the named executive officers, or realized value. If both portions of performance-based compensation were measured at their realized value, it would show the impact of actual performance on each named executive officer’s compensation.

The chart and table below show the performance-based and deferred compensation components of total compensation realized by our named executive officers in 2021.

•Amounts shown for each "Target" pay column reflect (A) Total Fixed Compensation of (i) base salary paid during the fiscal year, (ii) actual 2018 MSPP base salary match contributed during the fiscal year, (iii) the grant-date fair value of RSU awards, and (iv) all other compensation paid during 2021, all of which correspond to the amounts reported in the Summary Compensation Table, and (B) Performance-Based Compensation of (i) target annual incentive compensation calculated based upon a percentage of each named executive officers base salary as of December 31, 2021 at the target MICP payout percentage, (ii) the grant-date fair value of PSU awards that corresponds to the Summary Compensation Table, and (iii) MSPP matching contributions related to the 2021 annual incentive compensation award at target.

•Amounts shown for each "Realized" pay column reflect (A) Total Fixed Compensation reflected in the "Target" pay column, as described above, which corresponds to the amount reported in the Summary Compensation Table, and (B) Performance-Based Compensation of (i) annual incentive compensation calculated based upon a percentage of each named executive officers base salary as of December 31, 2021 at the actual MICP payout percentage, (ii) the grant-date fair value of PSU awards multiplied by the actual 2021 PSU payout percentage, and (iii) 2018 MSPP matching contributions related to the 2021 annual incentive compensation award at the actual MICP payout percentage.

As shown below, the realized compensation earned by each Named Executive Officers ranged from 35% to 60% of targeted compensation. Realized compensation was less than target compensation as a result of the Company’s performance in relation to the performance goals set for the MICP and PSU awards. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes realized compensation is an important metric to understand when evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s compensation programs.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Design of the Compensation Program

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee engaged an independent compensation advisor, Korn Ferry, to provide survey information and assistance in connection with the review and analysis of the compensation program for our executive officers in 2021 to confirm that the emphasis of this program is on performance and long-term incentives and is competitive within our industry in terms of base salaries, annual incentives, and long-term incentives. These three components are the key elements of the compensation program provided to our executive management team.

The Company’s compensation program is reviewed annually to ensure that the goals of the program are met and is amended from time to time to incorporate changes consistent with current industry best practices. The compensation program compensates our executive officers through a mix of base salary, annual incentive payments, and long-term equity-based incentives.

Peer Company Analysis

The relative levels of targeted compensation of our executive officers are determined, in part, by reference to compensation paid to similarly situated executives by a peer group of companies selected by the Compensation and Human Committee along with survey data in consultation with Korn Ferry. The peer group selected by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee for purposes of determining 2021 compensation consisted of the following companies and reflects no changes to the peer group selected for purposes of determining 2020 compensation:

A.O. Smith Corporation	Eagle Materials, Inc.	Patrick Industries, Inc.
Aaon, Inc.	Enerpac Tool Group Corporation	PGT Innovations, Inc.
Albany International Corporation	Griffon Corporation	Quanex Building Products Corporation
American Woodmark Corporation	Insteel Industries, Inc.	Simpson Manufacturing Co., Inc.
Apogee Enterprises, Inc.	L.B. Foster Company	Trex Company, Inc.
Armstrong World Industries, Inc.	Masonite International Corporation

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes the chosen peer group aligns with best practices as it provides a sufficient sample size from which we draw conclusions, and reflects a representative market for executive talent that our business faces. The peer companies were selected based on their comparable size, as measured by net sales and market capitalization, and industry. Companies within the selected peer group are all building products or industrial businesses that have revenues equal to approximately 45% to 280% of Gibraltar’s revenues.

Compensation and Human Capital Committee Approval Process

Management recommendations for salary increases and participation levels for all other components of our compensation program, for all executive officers other than the CEO, are made annually and are based on the CEO’s evaluation of each executive officer’s performance, length of service to the Company, experience, level of responsibility, the Company’s financial position, and degree to which his or her efforts have contributed to the implementation of the Company’s strategies and goals. This information, along with the information provided by Korn Ferry, is then used by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee to review and establish the compensation of each executive officer. The CEO’s compensation package is determined by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee based upon the same criteria. No executive officer provides input or participates in the deliberation of the Compensation and Human Capital Committee with respect to his or her own compensation.

Final authority for the establishment of annual compensation packages of our executive officers resides with the Compensation and Human Capital Committee. Once base salaries and participation levels are established, the formula-driven components of our compensation program are applied to determine the amount of the total compensation which our executive officers will be entitled to receive based upon the degree to which the Company’s annual goals have been achieved.

36

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Based on the peer group analysis described above along with CEO and Compensation and Human Capital Committee review, targeted annual incentive compensation and long-term equity-based incentive compensation components of each executive officer’s total compensation were set at percentages of each executive officer’s base salary. This provides the executive officers and stockholders a degree of certainty as to the level of incentive compensation which executive officers will be entitled to receive upon attainment of a specified level of performance.

The following table summarizes the targeted level of compensation for annual cash incentive compensation and long-term equity-based incentive awards (including RSUs and PSUs) for each NEO established by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee for 2021:

Position	Percentage of Salary
	Annual Incentive Compensation (MICP)	Long-Term Equity Compensation (LTIP)
President and Chief Executive Officer	120%	350%
Chief Operating Officer	60%	145%
Chief Financial Officer	60%	145%
Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer	35%	95%
Vice President and Treasurer	25%	70%

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee set the targeted annual incentive compensation and long-term equity-based incentive compensation levels as a percentage of salary for individual in consultation with Korn Ferry, considering peer group practices, survey data, length of service and role at the Company. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee considers these compensation levels reasonable in comparison to the peer companies described above and tailored to the Company’s leadership structure, level of responsibility, and emphasis on pay-for-performance while also emphasizing stock ownership which the committee believes aligns management’s interests with the interests of our stockholders.

Consideration of Risk

We believe the design of our executive compensation program provides an appropriate balance of incentives for executives and avoids inappropriate risks. Our compensation program is balanced and focused on the long-term so that our executive officers are incentivized to deliver superior performance over sustained periods. In an effort to promote a focus on the long-term, these compensation plans are designed to allow for deferral of compensation and have elements that are only realizable upon completion of a five-year service requirement under the 2018 MSPP. We believe these plans provide strong incentives to implement policies that promote long-term value creation while avoiding excessive risk-taking in the short-term.

Performance goals are established to align with our overall risk framework and reflect a balanced mix of financial measures designed to avoid placing excessive weight on a single measure. Compensation is also balanced among current cash payments, deferred cash, and equity awards. With limited exceptions, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee retains discretion to adjust compensation for quality of performance and adherence to Company values. Additionally, we have policies in place that limit the amount of compensation that can be earned under performance-based incentive programs, require our executive officers to own certain levels of Company stock, prohibit hedging and pledging activities, and include a Clawback Provision for all performance-based compensation.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Elements of Our Compensation Program

Our fiscal 2021 compensation program for named executive officers contained the following elements:

Base Salary

Base salary is annual fixed cash compensation and is the principal non-variable element of the Company's total compensation program.

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviews and approves base salaries generally at its February meeting with new salaries effective early March of the same year. Base salaries for our named executive officers reflect the level, scope and complexity of the named executive officer's role and responsibility and whether their base salary is appropriately positioned relative to similarly situated executives in our peer group and survey data. Our competitive analysis includes a review of the base salaries paid by our peer group companies to their executive officers and survey data. For fiscal 2021, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviewed and approved the base salaries shown below.

Named Executive Officer	Base Salary (Annualized Rate)
	Fiscal 2021		Fiscal 2020		% Change
William T. Bosway	$	825,000	$	700,000	17.9%
Patrick M. Burns	$	450,000	$	430,000	4.7%
Timothy F. Murphy	$	450,000	$	430,000	4.7%
Elizabeth R. Jensen	$	365,000	n/a		n/a
Jeffrey J. Watorek	$	241,000	$	232,000	3.9%

The increases in Mr. Bosway's base salary and LTIP participation level in 2021 reflect the Compensation and Human Capital Committee's determination that such increases are consistent with the Company’s stated compensation philosophy and reflects Mr. Bosway’s skill level, experience, and overall success in the role over his tenure.

Annual Management Incentive Compensation Plan

Our annual Management Incentive Compensation Plan (“MICP”) is designed to provide alignment between executive management’s cash compensation with stockholder interests by rewarding management for achievement of performance targets that the Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes will enhance stockholder value. The performance goals and weightings are reviewed by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee with management on an annual basis and adjusted if deemed appropriate by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviews and alters the weightings and the targets to ensure the management team focuses on the key metrics during different periods. Seventy-five percent (75%) of the overall annual MICP payout is based on net sales and adjusted earnings per share ("adjusted EPS"), which are evaluated in a nine-by-nine matrix with a payout between 35% to 200% of target. The 35% payout is earned if both net sales and adjusted EPS meet the threshold levels of achievement, and 200% is earned if both net sales and adjusted EPS meet or exceed the 200% achievement levels. If either actual net sales or actual adjusted EPS is less than the threshold level of achievement, the payout percentage is zero. The remaining twenty-five percent (25%) of the overall annual MICP payout is based on days working capital ("DWC") with a payout between 35% to 200% of target. The 35% payout is earned if the DWC threshold level of achievement is met, and the 200% payout is earned if the actual DWC meets or exceeds the 200% achievement level. If actual DWC is less than the threshold level of achievement, the payout percentage is zero. See the detailed description of net sales, adjusted EPS and DWC in Appendix A.

The graphic below illustrates the weighting of the performance goals and the calculation of the financial performance goals of the 2021 annual MICP.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes incentivizing management to deliver improved earnings with a focus on the efficient use of capital will provide stockholders with value as higher profits and lower working capital requirements lead to increased cash flow used to fund growth initiatives of the Company, including acquisitions.

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes the combination of the three financial performance targets of Net Sales, Adjusted EPS, and DWC, incentivizes management to maximize the return on investment for our stockholders. Furthermore, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee concluded that the metrics used in determination of the annual MICP payout are effectively connected to the creation of stockholder value.

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee uses adjusted financial information to determine the incentive compensation paid to named executive officers under our performance-based compensation plans in order to keep management motivated to make hard decisions to drive long-term value creation, such as entering into restructuring plans, and making acquisitions and divestitures despite the short-term costs associated with these activities. These items normally are not subject to the budgeting process and cannot necessarily be anticipated.

Equity-based Incentive Compensation

We maintain equity-based incentive compensation plans known as the Gibraltar Industries, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan and 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plans”). Our Omnibus Plans are an integral component of our overall compensation structure and provide the Company the vehicles through which we make awards of equity-based compensation to our named executive officers and other management employees.

Long-Term Incentive Plan

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee has provided for grants of equity-based awards to our named executive officers each year under the Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”). The Compensation and Human Capital Committee grants long-term equity-based awards with a target value, at the time the award is made, equal to a percentage of the executive officer’s base salary. Equity awards consist of time-vested grants of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance-based grants of performance stock units (“PSUs”). Targeted annual incentive compensation under RSU and PSU awards as a percentage of executive officer base salaries during 2021 are as follows:

Named Executive Officer	Target Annual Incentive Compensation of 2021 RSUs		Annual RSU Grants as a Percentage of Base Salary	Target Annual Incentive Compensation of 2021 PSUs		Annual PSU Grants as a Percentage of Base Salary
William T. Bosway	$	1,031,250	125%	$	1,856,250	225%
Patrick M. Burns	$	202,500	45%	$	450,000	100%
Timothy F. Murphy	$	202,500	45%	$	450,000	100%
Elizabeth R. Jensen	$	91,250	25%	$	255,500	70%
Jeffrey J. Watorek	$	24,100	10%	$	144,600	60%

Restricted Stock Units

Under the terms of RSU awards, vesting occurs in equal installments over a four (4) year period commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date. The vesting conditions which apply to RSUs granted to the executive officers under the Company’s LTIP are designed to reward executives for continuing their employment with the Company and for implementing policies and practices which increase the value of the Company’s Common Stock over a significant period of time.

Performance Stock Units

Under the terms of PSU awards, achievement is determined based on ROIC (as defined in the award) in the year of issuance and cliff-vest three years from date of grant The number of PSUs earned were determined during the 2021 performance period based upon the Company’s ROIC compared to the targeted ROIC. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee has selected ROIC as the performance goal used in determining payouts under PSU awards based on stockholder feedback and management’s recommendation.

40

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

ROIC is an important metric to be considered when making investment decisions and a focus on ROIC will incentivize management to make careful considerations when allocating capital for equipment, innovative growth opportunities, acquisitions, and other growth initiatives. The Company is actively focusing on portfolio management and has significant capital resources to utilize in acquisitions to expand its position and shape its markets, and as a result, we believe it is challenging to forecast for periods longer than one year. Although the PSU awards use only one performance metric to determine the number of units earned under the grants, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes ROIC is a broad measurement of performance that measures profitability, cash flow generation, and asset management. Given that ROIC is a broad performance metric, we believe this measure is indicative of the effectiveness of our executive management team. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes that incorporating ROIC as a component of our compensation program closely aligns executive officer compensation with the interests of the Company's stockholders and the three-year vesting period incentivizes long-term value creation and promotes retention of the Company's executive management team.

Targeted ROIC is determined based upon the budget presented to the Board of Directors by the executive management team. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee approved the 2021 target of 14.6% based on the budgeted financial information presented. The threshold to earn any PSUs under the award was set at 13.6%. The maximum number of shares earned is limited to 200%, which would have required a ROIC of 16.6% or higher to achieve.

In 2021, the named executive officers did not earn any of the PSUs as the actual ROIC as calculated in Appendix A was below the threshold set by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee.

The following table calculates the number of PSU awards issued and earned during 2021:

	William T. Bosway			Patrick M. Burns			Timothy F. Murphy			Elizabeth R. Jensen			Jeffrey J. Watorek

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan

A feature of our 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, as described above, is the 2018 Management Stock Purchase Plan (“2018 MSPP”), a non-qualified deferred compensation arrangement, which allow our executive officers to defer receipt of a portion of their base salary and a portion of the amount of their annual incentive compensation earned under MICP.

For those executive officers who have elected to defer a portion of their MICP payment or base salary, the Company credits an additional number of RSUs (“Matching RSUs”) in an amount based on a percentage of their deferrals. These Matching RSUs are forfeited if the executive officer’s employment is terminated, for any reason other than a change in control transaction, termination without cause, and death or disability, before the executive officer reaches the fifth anniversary of the executive officer's vesting commencement date.

Payment of RSUs credited to the account of an executive officer to reflect amounts deferred under the 2018 MSPP are made to the participant upon a termination of employment. In addition, if the executive officer’s employment is terminated after the fifth anniversary of the executive officer's vesting commencement date, or if the executive officer’s employment is terminated without cause, or due to death or disability, before the executive officer reaches the fifth anniversary of the executive officer's vesting commencement date, the participant will be entitled to receive payment for Matching RSUs.

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee approved the establishment of the 2018 MSPP, in order to attract, retain and motivate management employees. The 2018 MSPP provides investment alternatives ("Unrestricted Units") which are substantially similar to the universe of investment alternatives, including common stock of the Company ("Restricted Units"), available to employees who have elected to participate in the Gibraltar 401(k) Plan.

Under 2018 MSPP, the amount deferred and to be paid to a participant upon termination of his or her employment is equal to the hypothetical investments credited to his or her account plus the total number of RSUs, including Matching RSUs, if applicable, in his or her account multiplied by the 200-day rolling average price per share of the Company’s stock, determined as of the immediately preceding calendar-month's end date immediately preceding the date the participant becomes eligible to receive a distribution of his or her account under the 2018 MSPP.

Payment of the amount determined above is made to the participant based on an election made by the participant prior to the deferral in either (a) a lump sum, (b) five substantially equal annual installments, or (c) ten substantially equal annual installments, in each case, beginning six months after the date of termination. During the period that the installment payments are being made, the undistributed value of the participant’s account will earn interest at a rate equal to the average annualized rate of interest payable on ten-year US Treasury Notes plus two percent (2%).

We believe the 2018 MSPP further our compensation objectives of aligning the interests of our executive officers with stockholder interests by providing the executive officers an opportunity to increase post-termination compensation as a result of increases in the value of the Company’s common stock over their careers.

The following table summarizes the amount each NEO deferred into the 2018 MSPP, the number of Restricted Units credited to their 2018 MSPP accounts, and the Matching RSUs credited to their 2018 MSPP accounts during 2021:

Named Executive Officer	Deferred Compensation ($)		RSUs Credited to 2018 MSPP
			Officer Deferrals (#)	Company Match (#)
William T. Bosway	$	502,425	7,644	4,586
Patrick M. Burns	$	279,979	2,706	1,594
Timothy F. Murphy	$	279,979	3,986	2,107

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

CEO's Supplemental RSU Pool

On an annual basis, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee establishes a pool of RSUs and grants the CEO authority to issue RSUs from this pool at his discretion. If the CEO desires to issue RSUs from this pool to an executive officer or a direct report of the CEO, Compensation and Human Capital Committee approval is required. The awards are intended to provide the CEO with a tool to (a) recognize significant accomplishments or efforts not sufficiently recognized by the Company's annual or long-term incentive programs, (b) provide an incentive for retention, (c) acknowledge potential for leadership development, and (d) recognize a promotion or increased responsibilities. Awards are issued in the form of restricted stock or restricted stock units and generally cliff vest after a three year period. Mr. Watorek was awarded 460 RSUs during 2021 under the CEO's Supplemental RSU Pool.

Retirement Plans

Our executive officers are entitled to participate in our Gibraltar 401(k) Plan. The Company provides a 100% match of the first three-percent of compensation deferred, and 50% match on the next two-percent of compensation deferred. Participants are fully vested in all Company matching contributions. The Company does not provide any other retirement benefits aside from the 401(k) Plan.

Perquisites and Other Benefits

We annually review the perquisites that executive officers receive. The perquisites offered to our executive officers in 2021 include personal use of Company automobiles, health-care benefits, tax planning services and relocation reimbursement.

Change in Control Benefits

Our executive officers have been a key component in building our Company into the successful enterprise that it is today. We believe that it is important to protect our executive officers in the context of a change in control transaction to allow them to focus on the transaction. Further, it is our belief that the interests of our stockholders will be best served if the interests of our executive officers are aligned with the long-term success of the Company. We believe that change in control benefits should eliminate, or at least reduce, the reluctance of our executive officers to vigorously negotiate the optimal financial terms for our stockholders in the event of any potential, future change in control transactions. As a result, the Company has entered into Change in Control agreements with each of Messrs. Bosway, Burns and Murphy.

Our Change in Control benefits for Messrs. Bosway, Burns and Murphy provide for the protection of previously granted equity-based incentive compensation and provide for a cash payment upon a double trigger event, which would be the consummation of the Change in Control transaction and subsequent termination of employment.

For more information concerning amounts our executive officers are entitled to receive upon a termination of employment and change in control, see “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” below.

Generally Available Benefit Programs

The executive officers also participate in the Company’s other generally available benefit plans on the same terms as other employees at the Company’s headquarters. These plans include vacation, medical and dental insurance, life insurance, a supplemental salary continuation plan providing supplemental short-term disability benefits.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Long-Term Incentive Compensation Grant Practices

Executive equity awards are approved at regularly scheduled Compensation and Human Capital Committee meetings, at the time of an executive hire or promotion or upon identification of a specific retention concern. The grant date of equity awards approved by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee is either the date of Committee approval or a date subsequent to the approval date as specified by the Committee. The timing of equity awards has not been coordinated with the release of material non-public information. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee’s general practice is to approve annual equity awards to executives at the Compensation and Human Capital Committee’s regularly scheduled meeting in February, when the Committee reviews the performance of the executive officers and typically determines the other components of executive compensation.

The target dollar value attributable to PSUs and RSUs, as applicable, has been translated into a target number of PSUs or RSUs, as applicable, using the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of grant (or on the immediately preceding trading day if the date of grant is not a trading day).

Executive Stock Ownership Guideline

In accordance with the Company's Stock Ownership Policy, the Chief Executive Officer is required to hold 500% of his or her base salary in shares of the Company's common stock or other permitted equity interest within five years following his or her appointment. Also in accordance with this policy, the Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Vice Presidents are required to hold 300%, 300%, and 50% of their base salary, respectively, in shares of the Company's common stock or other permitted equity interest within three years following their appointment. For purposes of determining value of shares held, shares include common stock owned by the non-employee director, including those owned by spouse and/or minor children, performance stock units and restricted stock units settled in the Company's common stock. The value of shares held is determined based on current fair market value.

This policy is contained in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, which are available on our website at www.gibraltar1.com.

Hedging and Pledging Company Securities Policy

Under our insider trading policy, the Company has adopted a policy that prohibits any director or executive officer from engaging in hedging transactions related to, or from pledging or creating a security interest in the Company's Common Stock that the director or officer directly or indirectly owns and controls. No NEO has hedged or pledged any shares of the Company's Common Stock.

This policy is contained in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, which are available on our website at www.gibraltar1.com.

Clawback Policy

The Company has a Clawback Policy which requires recoupment of an executive officer’s performance-based compensation if the independent members of the Board determine that the executive engaged in fraudulent conduct that resulted in a restatement of financial statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

This policy is contained in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, which are available on our website at www.gibraltar1.com.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Tax Considerations

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, precludes the deductibility of a current and former named executive officer’s compensation that exceeds $1,000,000 per year. Although the Compensation and Human Capital Committee has historically attempted to structure executive compensation to preserve deductibility, it also reserves the right to provide compensation that may not be fully deductible in order to maintain flexibility in compensating named executive officers in a manner consistent with our compensation philosophy, as deemed appropriate. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes that stockholder interests are best served by not restricting the Compensation and Human Capital Committee’s discretion in this regard, even though such compensation may result in non-deductible compensation expenses to the Company. The Section 162(m) limitation resulted in a disallowed tax deduction for compensation expense of $6,762,855 in 2021.

Additionally, Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code generally imposes a tax on non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements which do not meet guidelines established by regulations under the Internal Revenue Code. The Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements are intended to comply with Section 409A.

If a company makes "parachute payments," Section 280G of the Code prohibits the company from deducting the portion of the parachute payments constituting "excess parachute payments" and Section 4999 of the Code imposes on a "disqualified individual" a 20% excise tax on the excess parachute payments. For this purpose, parachute payments generally are defined as payments to disqualified individuals that are contingent upon a change in control in an amount equal to or greater than three times the disqualified individual’s base amount (in general, the five-year average Form W-2 compensation). The excess parachute payments, which are nondeductible and subject to a 20% excise tax, equal the portion of the parachute payments that exceeds one time the disqualified individual’s base amount. The Change in Control Agreements and the Company’s equity incentive plans may entitle participants to receive payments in connection with a change in control that may result in excess parachute payments. The Company does not pay any tax gross-ups with respect to the excise tax imposed on any person who receives excess parachute payments.

(1)Ms. Jensen was hired and appointed as Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer effective March 8, 2021.

(2)Includes amounts, if any, deferred at the direction of the executive officer. Salaries vary from the amounts disclosed in the CD&A as a result of the timing of promotions and annual salary increase during 2021.

(3)This column represents the grant date fair value of time-vested restricted stock units granted that year under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan. Fair value was calculated using the closing price of Gibraltar Industries, Inc. common stock on the date of grant. The amount included for 2021 RSU awards for all NEOs reflects the grant date fair value of RSUs issued under the annual LTIP program; and for Mr. Watorek also includes the grant date fair value of additional RSUs granted in March 2021, which cliff vest in three years.

(4)This column represents the grant date fair value of PSUs granted during that year under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan. For the 2021 PSUs the assumptions applicable to these valuations can be found in Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Equity-Based Compensation contained in the Gibraltar Industries, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. ROIC is considered a performance condition and the grant-date fair value used in this table for the 2021 PSUs corresponds with management's expectation of the probable outcome of the performance condition as of the grant date. The maximum grant-date fair value for the 2021 PSUs are as follows: Mr. Bosway, $3,712,433; Mr. Burns, $899,973; Mr. Murphy, $899,973; Ms. Jensen, $510,979; and Mr. Watorek, $289,189. Based on the performance of the Company as measured by its actual ROIC compared to targeted ROIC, no units were earned under the 2021 PSU awards. As a result, no compensation will be earned under these PSU awards, and therefore the actual compensation differs from the grant date fair value disclosed. Further information regarding these awards can be found above in the CD&A on pages 40 and 41.

(5)This column represents the amounts earned under the Management Incentive Compensation Plan for the respective years.

(6)This column represents the Company contributions to the non-qualified deferred compensation plans for each of the NEOs. which is included in the Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Table.

The payout factor applied to target TSR PSUs granted is based upon meeting a threshold of the 40th percentile. At the 40th percentile, 50% of the target TSR PSUs will be issuable, at the 55th percentile, 100% of the target TSR PSUs will be issuable, and at the 75th percentile, 200% of the target TSR PSUs will be issuable.

Pay Ratio

We are required to disclose the ratio of the total annual compensation of our CEO to that of our median employee including (i) the median of the annual total compensation of the employees of Gibraltar, except the CEO (“median employee”); (ii) the annual total compensation of the CEO of Gibraltar; and (iii) the ratio of the amount of the annual total compensation of the CEO to the amount of the median annual total compensation of the employees of Gibraltar, except the CEO.

We elected to re-identify our median employee for 2021 considering changes in our employee population since the median employee was last identified as of December 31, 2020, including that we previously excluded 377 employees that became Gibraltar's employees in 2020 as a result of 2020 acquisitions. As of the end of fiscal year 2021, we employed 2,021 employees, compared to 2,337 total employees at the end of fiscal year 2020. Our fiscal year 2021 employees includes 832 employees classified as salary and 1,189 employees classified as hourly.

We selected December 31, 2021 as the date upon which we would identity the median employee for 2021. The Company’s median employee was identified using the annual total compensation as determined from the Company’s payroll records for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2021 for the employees of Gibraltar, except the CEO of Gibraltar, that were employed as of December 31, 2021. The total compensation of employees hired during the year and employed as of December 31, 2021 was annualized.

Non-U.S. employees in Asia accounted for 1.6% of Gibraltar’s employees, and therefore have been excluded under the “de minimis” exemption. We converted compensation for employees paid in currencies other than U.S. dollar into U.S. dollars based on exchange rates as of the end of 2021. We examined a small group of employee for whom annual total compensation as determined from the Company's payroll records was within a few dollars around the median. From this group, we selected an individual we determined to be reasonably representative of our median employee.

As calculated using the methodology required for the Summary Compensation Table, the annual total compensation of Mr. Bosway was $4,015,386. The annual total compensation of the selected median employee using the same methodology was $63,481. As a result, the calculated ratio of the median employee annual total compensation to the CEO’s annual total compensation is 63 to 1. This ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in the manner consistent applicable SEC rules. In light of the numerous different methodologies, assumptions, adjustments and estimates that companies apply as permitted under the SEC rules, our reported pay ratio may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported by other companies.

COMPENSATION OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Potential Payments on Termination or Change in Control

The following section describes and quantifies potential payments to the named executive offices under the Company's compensation and benefit plans and arrangements upon termination of employment or a change in control of the Company as of December 31, 2021.

Severance Agreement

Upon termination without cause or a voluntary termination with good reason of Mr. Bosway, the Company's Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, is entitled to a severance payment payable in equal installments over the two (2) year period following termination of employment in an amount equal to two (2) times Mr. Bosway's base salary.

Restricted Stock Units

The awards of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) which the Company has made to its executive officers provide that the RSUs will be paid in shares of the Company’s stock if the employment of the executive officer is: (i) terminated by the Company without cause, (ii) in the case of the CEO, terminated for “good reason,” or (iii) terminated after one year from the date of grant if the executive officer has attained age 60 and completed at least five years of service to the Company. In each case, a termination without cause will be considered to have occurred if the executive officer’s employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than a determination by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee that the executive officer has engaged in egregious acts or omissions which have resulted in material injury to the Company and its business. Additionally, the awards of RSUs provide that if a change in control of the Company occurs and, in connection with the change in control, the successor does not expressly assume the RSUs or issue to the executive officers a substitute award, then the executive officers will be entitled to payment for RSUs outstanding on the date the change in control occurs.

Performance Stock Units

The awards of performance stock units (“PSUs”) which the Company has made to its executive officers provide that if an executive officer’s employment is terminated by the Company without cause or after one year from the date of grant if the executive officer has attained age 60 and completed at least five years of service to the Company, the executive officer will be entitled to payment for the PSUs earned prior to termination. Additionally, the awards of PSUs provide that if a change in control of the Company occurs and, in connection with the change in control, the successor does not expressly assume the PSUs or issue to the executive officers a substitute award, then the executive officers will be entitled to payment for PSUs earned prior to the change in control together with payment, at the targeted performance level, for PSUs with performance periods ending after the date the change in control occurs.

Change in Control Agreements

The Company has also entered into change in control agreements (the "Change in Control Agreements") with Messrs. Bosway, Burns, and Murphy. These Change in Control Agreements contain double trigger payment provisions. Accordingly, upon the occurrence of a change in control and termination of employment:

•Mr. Burns is entitled to receive in one lump sum payment an amount equal to the sum of:

i.any bonuses accrued for but not yet paid to Mr. Burns for the fiscal year of the Company ending immediately prior to when the change of control occurred;

ii.any regularly scheduled installment of Mr. Burns' annual base salary which were due to be paid for the period ending when the change in control occurred; and

iii.Mr. Burns' (a) accrued and unpaid vacation pay as of the date when the change of control occurred, (b) annual base salary, including any deferred cash compensation, during the calendar year preceding the year when the change of control occurred multiplied by two, and (c) the highest annual bonus paid to Mr. Burns during the three years immediately preceding the year in which the change in control occurs.

•Mr. Murphy is entitled to receive in one lump sum payment an amount equal to the sum of:

i.any bonuses accrued for but not yet paid to Mr. Murphy for the fiscal year of the Company ending immediately prior to when the change of control occurred;

ii.any regularly scheduled installment of Mr. Murphy's annual base salary which were due to be paid for the period ending when the change in control occurred; and

iii.Mr. Murphy's (a) accrued and unpaid vacation pay as of the date when the change of control occurred, and (b) annual base salary, including any deferred cash compensation, during the calendar year preceding the year when the change of control occurred and the highest annual bonus paid to Mr. Murphy during the three years immediately preceding the year in which the change in control occurs, multiplied by two.

The payments and benefits payable in the event of a change in control are not subject to any limitations that would prevent them from being considered “excess parachute payments” subject to excise or corporate tax deduction disallowance under the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, the lump sum payments could require excise tax payments on the part of the executive, and result in a deduction disallowance on the part of our Company.

In all Change in Control Agreements, a change in control will be deemed to occur if:

i.Any person or group, other than an affiliate of the Company, acquires thirty-five percent (35%) or more of the common stock of our Company without approval of the Board of Directors;

ii.There is a change in a majority of the members of the Board of Directors in any twelve-month period and the new directors were not endorsed by the majority of the old directors; or

iii.We enter into a merger or consolidation transactions involving fifty percent (50%) or more change in ownership.

The following table sets forth the amount of compensation which would be payable to the executive officers upon a termination of their employment under the circumstances described. Except for retirement, the amounts payable have been determined as if the employment of the executive officer was terminated on December 31, 2021, on which date, the closing price per share of the Company’s stock was $66.68. With respect to amounts payable at retirement, we have assumed that the executive officer retired on December 31, 2021, and that, at the time of such retirement, the executive satisfied the applicable age and service requirements for payment of a retirement benefit under the applicable benefit program, and had not met the one year from date of grant time-lapse requirement.

PROPOSAL 3 - APPROVAL OF THE GIBRALTAR INDUSTRIES, INC. AMENDED AND RESTATED 2016 STOCK PLAN FOR NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS

PROPOSAL 3 - APPROVAL OF THE

GIBRALTAR INDUSTRIES, INC. AMENDED AND RESTATED

2016 STOCK PLAN FOR NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS

On March 17, 2022, the Board of Directors and Compensation and Human Capital Committee approved the amendment and restatement of the Gibraltar Industries, Inc. 2016 Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “Amended Plan”), subject to approval of the Amended Plan by the Company’s stockholders, and directed that the Amended Plan be submitted to stockholders for approval at the Annual Meeting.

Proposal 3 requests stockholder approval of the Amended Plan. If approved by stockholders at the Annual Meeting, the Amended Plan will amend and restate the current plan to:

•increase the total number of shares of our Common Stock authorized for issuance by the Company thereunder from 100,000 to 200,000;

•limit eligible participants to current non-employee directors;

•provide that the Amended Plan will expire on the ten-year anniversary of the effective date of the Amended Plan;

•clarify the ongoing authority of the Board, in addition to the Compensation and Human Capital Committee, to make Awards or administer the Amended Plan, and the Board will have all of the authority and responsibility granted to the Compensation and Human Capital Committee therein; and

•eliminate defined terms that are not used and make other administrative changes.

As originally approved, the 2016 Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors authorized the issuance of 100,000 shares. As of March 22, 2022, 18,696 shares remain available under the plan, which will be insufficient to make future equity awards in accordance with the Company’s compensation program for non-employee directors following the 2022 annual equity awards, based on our current stock price. Accordingly, the Board is seeking approval of the Amended Plan to permit future equity awards pursuant to its non-employee director compensation program. If the Amended Plan is approved by stockholders at the Annual Meeting, 118,696 shares will remain available under the Amended Plan, before taking into account the 2022 annual equity awards to our non-employee directors, which we believe will be sufficient for annual equity awards to our non-employee directors for approximately seven years (assuming our stock price, number of non-employee directors and director compensation program remain consistent). The non-employee director compensation program in effect during 2021 is described under the heading “Compensation of Directors” in this proxy statement. The compensation program for non-employee directors is revised periodically by our Compensation and Human Capital Committee based on benchmarking data and the advice of its independent compensation consultant, Korn Ferry.

The Board of Directors believes there are a number of reasons to vote FOR the adoption of the Amended Plan as summarized below.

•Our success depends on providing competitive equity compensation to attract and retain directors. Our ability to attract and retain high-caliber directors will directly influence how well the Company carries out its strategic plan and creates stockholder value. To compete for talented leaders, we strive to provide directors with competitive compensation packages including equity compensation and, if the Amended Plan is not approved, beginning in 2023, the Company will no longer be able to make annual equity awards in accordance with the Company’s compensation program for non-employee directors under the 2016 Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors.

•We provide our directors with different equity awards. The Gibraltar Industries, Inc. 2018 Equity Incentive Plan permits the issuance of a variety of equity awards and allows the Compensation and Human Capital Committee to provide our executive officers and employees with equity compensation that is both time-based and performance-based. The Amended Plan is designed to permit the issuance of stock awards to our non-employee directors that are immediately vested in accordance with past practice, all or a portion of which may be deferred for future issuance at the election of each non-employee director.

56

PROPOSAL 3 - APPROVAL OF THE GIBRALTAR INDUSTRIES, INC. AMENDED AND RESTATED 2016 STOCK PLAN FOR NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS

•We carefully manage our equity incentive plans. We manage our equity compensation programs to minimize stockholder dilution. Our Compensation and Human Capital Committee considered our “burn rate” in evaluating the impact of equity awards and determining the proposed increase in the number of shares authorized for issuance under the Amended Plan. Our three-year average “burn rate” for 2019, 2020, and 2021 was approximately 0.64% (calculated by dividing the number of equity awards granted in a year by the weighted average number of shares outstanding). In addition to considering the “burn rate,” the Compensation and Human Capital Committee considered a number of other factors, such as proxy advisory firm guidelines, and equity award usage.

The Company is not requesting an increase in the number of shares available for issuance under, or proposing any other amendments to, the separate Gibraltar Industries, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan and 2018 Equity Incentive Plan.

The following is a summary of the material features of the Amended Plan if approved by stockholders at the Annual Meeting. The summary does not purport to be complete and is subject in all respects and qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Amended Plan, the full text of which is set forth as Appendix B of this Proxy Statement. If our stockholders approve the Amended Plan, a registration statement on Form S-8 covering the shares newly available for issuance will be filed with the SEC.

Purpose

The purpose of the Amended Plan is to grant equity-based incentive compensation awards to our non-employee directors to provide them an additional incentive to promote the business of the Company, to increase their proprietary interest in the success of the Company and to enhance long-term stockholder value.

Effective Date; Term

The Amended Plan was approved by the Board of Directors and the Compensation and Human Capital Committee on March 17, 2022 and, subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company, will become effective upon execution by an authorized officer of the Company. The Amended Plan will automatically terminate on the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the Amended Plan, and no additional awards will be granted under the Amended Plan after that date. The termination of the Amended Plan will not affect previously granted awards.

Eligible Participants

The individuals who are eligible to receive awards under the Amended Plan are our current non-employee directors. As of March 22, 2022, the Company had eight non-employee directors, all of whom were eligible to participate in the Amended Plan.

Administration

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee administers the Amended Plan. Our Board may also grant awards or administer the Amended Plan.

Reservation of Common Stock

A total of 200,000 shares of our common stock will be authorized under the Amended Plan. The number of shares of our Common Stock authorized under the Amended Plan will be proportionately adjusted if the number of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock changes as a result of a stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or the like, or if the Company’s Common Stock is converted as a result of a reorganization.

Types of Awards

Awards will be in the form of shares of the Company’s Common Stock, which are fully-vested when issued.

Terms of Awards

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee shall determine which eligible participants shall be granted awards and the number of shares of Common Stock for which awards are granted.

57

PROPOSAL 3 - APPROVAL OF THE GIBRALTAR INDUSTRIES, INC. AMENDED AND RESTATED 2016 STOCK PLAN FOR NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS

Deferral Option

Each non-employee director shall have the right to defer his or her receipt of the shares he or she is awarded under the Amended Plan. The terms and conditions upon which the non-employee directors shall have the right to defer their receipt of shares are contained in the Gibraltar Industries, Inc. 2016 Non-Employee Director Stock Deferral Plan adopted by the Company concurrently with the original 2016 Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors, and described under the heading “Compensation of Directors” in this proxy statement.

Amendment and Termination

The Board of Directors or the Compensation and Human Capital Committee may suspend, amend or terminate the Amended Plan, provided, however, that no amendment that constitutes a “material amendment” of the Amended Plan, as defined in the applicable Nasdaq rules, shall be effective unless approved by the stockholders of the Company in the manner required by such rules and by applicable law.

Director Compensation Limit

The number of shares that may be awarded to any single non-employee director during any calendar year shall not have a grant date fair value over $300,000.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a brief description of the principal U.S. federal income tax consequences generally arising with respect to awards under the Amended Plan. The following provides only a general description of the application of federal income tax laws to awards under the Amended Plan. This discussion is intended for the information of stockholders considering how to vote at the Annual Meeting and not as tax guidance to non-employee directors.

As non-employee directors, grantees are not subject to withholding by the Company and will remain responsible for their own tax obligations. Awards granted under the Amended Plan are expressly prohibited from including features that allow for income or excise tax gross-ups to the recipient. The value of shares of Common Stock awarded are taxed as ordinary income to the award recipient in the year of grant. Since fully-vested upon grant, the basis in the shares received will be equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant, and the holding period in such shares begins on the day after the date of grant. Unless stated otherwise above, upon the subsequent disposition of shares acquired under any of the preceding awards, the grantee will recognize capital gain or loss based upon the difference between the amount realized on such disposition and the basis in the shares, and such amount will be long-term capital gain or loss if such shares were held for more than 12 months.

Interests of Directors and Executive Officers; New Plan Benefits Resulting from the Amendment

All non-employee directors are eligible to receive awards under the Amended Plan. Consequently, each current non-employee director has a personal interest in the approval of the Amended Plan. The actual benefit and number of shares to be issued to the non-employee directors under the Amended Plan if approved cannot be determined at this time because the Amended Plan does not provide for set benefits or amounts. Awards to be made under the Amended Plan have not been granted and are not determinable using a formula or other objective criteria in the Amended Plan. However, the Amended Plan includes a $300,000 annual limit on the fair value of shares which may be awarded to any non-employee director and, under the Company’s current compensation program for non-employee directors, each non-employee director receives an annual grant of common stock having a fair value equal to $105,000, which shares vest immediately and are delivered to directors unless a director elects to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the stock award for future issuance. The number of shares that each non-employee director receives is determined based on the closing price of our Common Stock on the grant date. For details on the equity compensation grants made to our non-employee directors under the 2016 Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors in 2021, see “Compensation of Directors” in this proxy statement. No additional benefits or amounts would have been awarded to directors during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021 if the Amended Plan had been in effect during such period.

Vote Required

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock present, in person or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote thereon is required to approve the Amended Plan.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE GIBRALTAR INDUSTRIES, INC. AMENDED AND RESTATED 2016 STOCK PLAN FOR NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS IN PROPOSAL 3.

PROPOSAL 4 - RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

PROPOSAL 4 - RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit and Risk Committee of the Company’s Board has appointed the firm of Ernst & Young LLP to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, and recommends that the stockholders vote for the ratification of that selection. Ernst & Young LLP has audited the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the past seventeen fiscal years including 2021. Representatives of Ernst & Young LLP are expected to attend the Annual Meeting, will be given the opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and to respond to appropriate questions.

The Audit and Risk Committee is responsible for the appointment, oversight, and compensation of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, which is evaluated on an annual basis. Before selecting Ernst & Young LLP, the Audit and Risk Committee carefully considered that firm’s qualifications as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company and the audit scope. Stockholder ratification of the Audit and Risk Committee’s appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is not required by the Company’s bylaws or otherwise. The Company’s Board of Directors is submitting the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP to the stockholders for ratification and will reconsider whether to retain Ernst & Young LLP if the stockholders fail to ratify the Audit and Risk Committee’s appointment. In addition, even if the stockholders ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP, the Audit and Risk Committee may in its discretion appoint a different independent accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit and Risk Committee determines that a change is in the best interests of the Company.

THE AUDIT AND RISK COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE RATIFICATION OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM IN PROPOSAL 4.

EY audited our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and expressed an opinion as to whether the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. Additionally, EY performed certain non-audit services during fiscal 2021 and 2020 that are permitted under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and related rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The Audit and Risk Committee determined that the provision of the audit-related and permitted non-audit services provided by EY during fiscal 2021 and 2020 was compatible with maintaining their independence pursuant to the auditor independence rules of the SEC for each of these years.

Pre-Approval for Non-Audit Services Policies and Procedures of the Audit and Risk Committee

The Audit and Risk Committee has adopted procedures for pre-approving audit and non-audit services to be provided by EY. In considering such approval, the Audit and Risk Committee may request all such information and documentation from the Company as it deems necessary in order for it to make its decision with respect to the requested engagement. The Audit and Risk Committee may discuss the potential engagement with the independent registered public accounting firm, with its counsel or other professional advisors.

The Audit and Risk Committee shall consider whether or not the performance of the requested non-audit services complies with law, including but not limited to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the regulations promulgated by the SEC thereunder. It shall also consider whether the services provided will have a negative effect upon the integrity of the Company’s financial reporting, whether by approving such engagement the Audit and Risk Committee is complying with and promoting its purposes, duties, and functions as set forth in its Charter, and it shall also consider any potential negative effect which the engagement may have on the Company, including the possible appearance of a conflict of interest or impropriety. One hundred percent (100%) of the fees billed by EY for tax compliance services and other products and services were approved by the Audit and Risk Committee.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

The Audit and Risk Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving transactions and business relationships with any significant stockholder, director, executive officer or other member of senior management, or their family members on an ongoing basis. The Audit and Risk Committee requests and receives from the Company on an annual basis, a list and description of transactions with related parties, as described above, to the extent such transactions are required to be reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Company's Proxy Statement pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 404(a). The Audit and Risk Committee reviews and discusses such transactions with management and the independent auditor, and approves or ratifies such transactions on an annual basis. Prior to approval or ratification of such transactions, the Audit and Risk Committee considers the qualifications of the related party, fees charged to the Company, and the significance of the transaction to the Company and the related party.

There were no transactions with related parties during 2021 for the Audit and Risk Committee to review and approve in accordance with the written policy, as described above, which is included in the Audit and Risk Committee Charter.

AUDIT AND RISK COMMITTEE REPORT

AUDIT AND RISK COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit and Risk Committee currently consists of six directors who are independent as defined in the listing standards of Nasdaq applicable to members of audit committees. A brief description of the responsibilities of the Audit and Risk Committee is set forth above under the caption “Corporate Governance.”

The Audit and Risk Committee has reviewed and discussed the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 with management of the Company and Ernst & Young LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. During 2021, management evaluated the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in response to the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and based on the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 Framework). Throughout the year, management kept the Audit and Risk Committee apprised of the progress of its evaluation of internal controls and the Audit and Risk Committee provided oversight of the evaluation process. At the end of the year, management issued a report on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Audit and Risk Committee reviewed this report and discussed with management and Ernst & Young LLP the adequacy of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls. The Audit and Risk Committee also discussed with Ernst & Young LLP the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) and the SEC. The Audit and Risk Committee also has received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from Ernst & Young LLP required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding Ernst & Young LLP communications with the Audit and Risk Committee, and has discussed with Ernst & Young LLP its independence. Ernst & Young LLP informed the Company that they are not aware of any relationship with the Company that, in their professional judgment, may reasonably be thought to bear on the independence of Ernst & Young LLP.

The Audit and Risk Committee appointed Ernst & Young LLP as Company’s independent public accounting firm.

Based on the review and the discussions referred to above, the Audit and Risk Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The 2022 Annual Meeting is scheduled to be held on May 4, 2022 at 11:00 A.M., Eastern Time, via live webcast at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/ROCK2022. You will need to have the 16-digit control number included on your proxy card, or in the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials by the method you consented or elected to receive for delivery. This solicitation is for proxies for use at the 2021 Annual Meeting, and at any adjournment or postponement thereof, for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Voting Information

Record Date

The Board of Directors has fixed the close of business on March 22, 2022, as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the 2022 Annual Meeting. At the close of business on March 22, 2022, the Company had outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting 32,792,749 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Common Stock”). Each share is entitled to one vote on each matter properly brought before the Annual Meeting.

Solicitation Costs

The cost of the solicitation of proxies in the accompanying form will be borne by the Company, including expenses in connection with preparing and mailing this Proxy Statement. In addition to the use of the mail, proxies may be solicited by personal interviews and by telephone by directors, officers, and employees, without any additional compensation, as well as proxy solicitors. We have retained Alliance Advisors, LLC (“Alliance”) to act as a proxy solicitor in conjunction with the 2022 Annual Meeting. We have agreed to pay Alliance $13,000, plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, for proxy solicitation services. Arrangements will be made with brokerage houses, banks and other custodians, nominees, and fiduciaries for the forwarding of solicitation material to the beneficial owners of Common Stock, and the Company will reimburse them for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection therewith.

Voting Your Proxy

If the enclosed proxy is properly executed, returned, and received in time for the Annual Meeting, the shares represented thereby will be voted in accordance with the specifications, if any, made on the proxy card. If no specification is made, the proxies will be voted as recommended by the Board of Directors (i) FOR the nominees for directors named in this Proxy Statement, (ii) FOR the approval of the advisory resolution on our executive compensation (the “Say-on-Pay” vote), (iii) FOR the approval of the Gibraltar Industries, Inc. Amended and Restated 2016 Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors, and (iv) FOR the ratification of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2022.

Vote Required

The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will constitute a quorum. When a quorum is present, to be elected, directors must receive a majority of the votes cast. Each other proposal submitted to the stockholders requires the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and, entitled to vote, assuming a quorum is present.

4	Ratification of Ernst & Young LLP as our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm	Majority of shares present that are entitled to vote.	For the proposal	Against the proposal	Against the proposal	--

Directors are elected by a majority of votes cast unless the election is contested, in which case directors are elected by a plurality of votes cast. Nominees for the election of directors must receive more “for” than “against” votes to be elected. If an incumbent director, in an uncontested election, does not receive a majority of the votes cast, the director is required to tender his or her resignation to the Board of Directors. The Nominating, Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee will make a recommendation to the Board of Directors on whether to accept or reject the resignation, or whether other action should be taken. The Board of Directors will act on the recommendation and publicly disclose its decision and rationale behind it within ninety (90) days of the date election results are certified.

Your shares may be voted on some of the matters to be acted on at the Annual Meeting if they are held in the name of a brokerage firm, even if you do not provide the brokerage firm with voting instructions. Brokerage firms have the authority to vote shares on certain routine matters for which their customers do not provide voting instructions. The ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2022 is the only stockholder proposal considered a routine matter.

The election of directors, the Say-on-Pay vote, and approval of the Gibraltar Industries, Inc. Amended and Restated 2016 Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors are not considered routine. When a proposal is not a routine matter and the brokerage firm has not received voting instructions from the beneficial holder of the shares with respect to that proposal, the brokerage firm CANNOTvote the shares on that proposal. This is called a “broker non-vote.” The impact of broker non-votes is described in the table above. Please execute your proxy promptly so your shares will be represented at the Annual Meeting.

Revocability of Proxy

The execution of a proxy will not affect a stockholder’s right to virtually attend the 2022 Annual Meeting and to vote electronically. A stockholder who executes a proxy may revoke it before it is exercised by giving written notice to the Secretary, by attending and electronically voting at the 2022 Annual Meeting, or by submitting another duly executed proxy bearing a later date.

SAFE HARBOR STATEMENTS

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain information set forth in this Proxy Statement, other than historical statements, contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are based, in whole or in part, on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections about the Company’s business, and management’s beliefs about future operations, results, and financial position. These forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms “believes,” “anticipates,” "aspires," “expects,” “estimates,” “seeks,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “opportunities,” “may,” “will” or “should” or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to a number of risk factors, uncertainties, and assumptions. Actual events, performance, or results could differ materially from the anticipated events, performance, or results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things, the availability and pricing of our principal raw materials and component parts, supply chain challenges causing project delays and field operations inefficiencies and disruptions, availability of labor at our manufacturing and distribution facilities or on our project sites, further impacts of COVID-19 and the conflict involving Russia and Ukraine on the global economy, supply chain, availability and pricing of our principal raw materials and component parts and on our customers, suppliers, employees, operations, business, liquidity and cash flows, the loss of any key customers, other general economic conditions and conditions in the particular markets in which we operate, changes in customer demand and capital spending, competitive factors and pricing pressures, our ability to develop and launch new products in a cost-effective manner, our ability to realize synergies from newly acquired businesses, disruptions to our IT systems, the impact of regulation, rebates, credits and incentives and variations in government spending and our ability to derive expected benefits from restructuring, productivity initiatives, liquidity enhancing actions, and other cost reduction actions. Before making any investment decisions regarding our company, we strongly advise you to read the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K which can be accessed under the “SEC Filings” link of the “Investor Info” page of our website at www.Gibraltar1.com. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable law or regulation.

The content of our website or the website of other third parties noted herein are not incorporated by reference in this Proxy Statement.

Adjusted Financial Measures

To supplement Gibraltar’s financial information presented on a GAAP basis, Gibraltar also presented certain adjusted financial measures in this Proxy Statement, including adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share (Adjusted EPS) and days working capital (DWC), each a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted net income means the Company's net income from continuing operations as determined pursuant to GAAP, but excludes special charges consisting of restructuring costs primarily associated with 80/20 simplification or lean initiatives, senior leadership transition costs, and acquisition related costs. The aforementioned exclusions along with other adjustments to other income below operating profit are excluded from adjusted EPS. In evaluating its business, the Company considers and uses these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental measures of its operating performance. The Company believes that the presentation of results excluding these items provides meaningful supplemental data to investors that are indicative of the Company's core operating results and facilitates comparison of operating results across reporting periods as well as comparison with other companies. Special charges are excluded since they may not be considered directly related to the Company's ongoing business operations.

Adjustments to the most directly comparable financial measures presented on a GAAP basis are quantified in the adjusted financial measures reconciliation in the appendix of this Proxy Statement. The adjusted measures in this Proxy Statement should not be viewed as a substitute for the Company’s GAAP results and may be different than adjusted measures used by other companies and the Company's presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that the Company's future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

68

APPENDIX A - NON-GAAP MEASUREMENTS

The Company provides certain non-GAAP financial measures in this proxy statement that are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). Our non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted net income and adjusted EPS excludes the below listed items, as they do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the Company's future operating performance or comparisons to the Company's past operating performance. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP. Other companies may calculate this non-GAAP financial measure differently than the Company does, limiting the usefulness of such measure for comparative purposes.

The following summarizes the level of attainment for each financial performance goal during the year ended December 31, 2021 (in thousands, except per share data):

	Net Sales		Adjusted EPS		DWC
Net sales, as reported (GAAP)	$	1,339,783
Income from continuing operations per share - diluted, as reported (GAAP)			$	2.25
Restructuring and intangible asset impairment charges			$	0.38
Senior leadership transition costs			$	0.04
Acquisition related items			$	0.11
Income from continuing operations per share - diluted, adjusted			$	2.78
Average net working capital (1)					$	167,490
Average daily sales (2)					$	3,722
Days working capital (DWC)					45.0

(1)Average net working capital presents the 13-month average of accounts receivable and inventory less accounts payable for each month end between December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2021.

(2)Average daily sales represents net sales, as reported (GAAP), divided by three-hundred and sixty (360) days.
