Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On May 14, 2024, the Compensation Committee of the Mistras Group, Inc. (the “Company”) Board of Directors awarded Manuel Stamatakis, its Chairman and Interim President and Chief Executive Officer, 125,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”). These RSUs vest in one year, on May 14, 2025, and upon vesting, each RSU is converted into one share of Mistras common stock. The terms of the award are consistent with the standard term of RSU awards for senior officers. The RSUs will continue in effect should Mr. Stamatakis resign from his positions as Interim President and CEO but remain on the Mistras Board. The terms of the RSU also contain a retirement provision, which means that the RSUs will vest in accordance with its terms on May 14, 2025, should Mr. Stamatakis retire before the RSUS vest, so long as Mr. Stamatakis complies with the restrictive covenants in the RSU terms.
The Compensation Committee granted Mr. Stamatakis this award on account of:
•his outstanding performance as he continues to be the driving force behind Project Phoenix, which has yielded significant benefits to the Company due to Mr. Stamatakis’ leadership,
•leading the transformation of the Company to be a more disciplined, process driven business, focusing on higher margin business while developing strategies to improve the profitability of the Company’s more traditional lower margin business,
•implementing key leadership changes, including the hiring of a Chief Commercial Officer and Chief Transformation Officer,
•guiding the Company to improved operating results, as evidenced by the Company’s financial results in the first quarter of 2024, and
•the increase in shareholder value since Mr. Stamatakis became CEO in October 2023.
