Conducted by the Executive Compensation & Corporate Governance practice at FTI Consulting, the study details compensation structures and provides meaningful insight and commentary into recent homebuilder compensation market trends.
Among the key findings, the study revealed that many homebuilders’ compensation committees and management teams have worked to balance their compensation structures by incorporating more financial measures in their annual cash bonus program and performance shares, generally using a profitability metric plus one or two additional key measures. In addition, most homebuilders use two equity vehicles in their Long-Term Incentive (“LTI”) programs to balance retention by incorporating time-vested shares and motivation by incorporating performance shares.
“All publicly traded homebuilders received majority shareholder support on 2017 say-on-pay proposals, which is a testament to the pay-for-performance alignment in the industry,” said Katie Gaynor, Co-Leader of the Executive Compensation & Corporate Governance practice at FTI Consulting. “Stock prices in the homebuilder industry are up approximately 25 percent in 2017 based on strong fundamentals and a positive industry outlook overall, which always lends itself to strong say-on-pay results and less-complicated discussions in the boardroom around compensation. The challenge is always designing a compensation program that works not only in an up market, but one that will also be effective in retaining, rewarding and motivating key employees during a down market, something that is inevitable given the cyclical nature of the homebuilding industry.”
Annual incentive plans (e.g., cash bonus plans) at homebuilders are continuing the trend of being more formulaic based on two to four key measures. In 2016, 30 percent of annual incentive plans incorporated a discretionary or subjective component.
Larry Portal, Co-Leader of the Executive Compensation & Corporate Governance practice, noted that, “Compensation committees are more sensitive to the degree to which discretion is appropriate in annual incentive plans. Setting pre-determined financial measures, while sometimes difficult to forecast, provides a clear link to compensation amounts, to which shareholders have reacted positively. Companies are aiming to balance excessive risk-taking by using fewer metrics and focusing management on critical business objectives.”
