Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On February 14, 2024, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved the Velocity Financial FY 2024 Annual Cash Incentive Program and FY 2024 Performance Stock Units Program for certain of our executive officers.
2024 Annual Cash Incentive Program
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved the Velocity Financial FY 2024 Annual Cash Incentive Program for the following named executive officers, Christopher D. Farrar ,Chief Executive Officer, Mark R. Szczepaniak, Chief Financial Officer and Jeffrey T. Taylor, Executive Vice President, Capital Markets.
The Compensation Committee approved Core Net Income Annual Growth for the year ending December 31, 2024 as the performance metric and individual performance objectives for determining cash bonus opportunities for the 2024 fiscal year. Core Net Income Annual Growth is the percentage growth calculated by subtracting Core Net Income for fiscal year 2023 from Core Net Income for fiscal year 2024 and dividing that difference by Core Net Income for fiscal year 2023. Core Net Income represents our net income after taxes adjusted to eliminate the effect of certain costs incurred or benefits received from activities that are not normal or recurring operating expenses or revenues.
If our 2024 Core Net Income Annual Growth is less than the Compensation Committee approved threshold, Messrs. Farrar, Szczepaniak and Taylor will not receive any performance-based bonus. If our 2024 Core Net Income Annual Growth equals the approved threshold, Messrs. Farrar, Szczepaniak and Taylor will be eligible to receive a performance-based bonus equal to $315,000, $147,656 and $118,125, respectively. If our 2024 Core Net Income Annual Growth equals or exceeds the approved maximum, Messrs. Farrar, Szczepaniak and Taylor will be eligible to receive a performance-based bonus equal to $1,260,000, $590,625 and $472,500, respectively. If actual 2024 Core Net Income Annual Growth falls between the approved threshold and maximum, the executives will be eligible to receive a performance-based bonus based on straight line interpolation between such points.
Each executive will also be eligible to receive an individual performance-based bonus based on an assessment of such executive's performance relating to the following criteria:
Asset quality and overall corporate risk management
Leadership and decision making
Velocity’s strategic initiatives
Inter department cooperation and team building
Completion of special projects
Based on such individual assessments, the participating executive officers are eligible to receive the following individual performance-based bonus opportunities:
Christopher D. Farrar $0 - $1,260,000
Mark R. Szczepaniak $0 - $590,625
Jeffrey T. Taylor $0 - $472,500
Bonuses under the program will be subject to Compensation Committee certification following fiscal year-end 2024.
2024 Performance Stock Units Program
Under our FY 2024 Performance Stock Units Program, the Compensation Committee approved grants of Performance Stock Units with vesting conditioned on the numerical average of our Core Net Income Annual Growth for fiscal years 2024, 2025 and 2026.
Based on our average Core Net Income Annual Growth over the three-year period and the threshold, target and maximum growth rates approved by the Compensation Committee, the participating executive officers are eligible to receive the following shares of common stock in settlement of their grants:
Christopher D. Farrar 0 - 139,028
Mark R. Szczepaniak 0 - 48,410
Jeffrey T. Taylor 0 - 44,686
If our average Core Net Income Annual Growth is less than the Compensation Committee approved threshold, Messrs. Farrar, Szczepaniak and Taylor will not receive any shares. If our average Core Net Income Annual Growth is equal to or greater than the Compensation Committee approved maximum, Messrs. Farrar, Szczepaniak and Taylor will receive 139,0287, 48,410 and 44,686 shares respectively. If our actual average Core Net Income Annual Growth falls between the approved threshold and maximum, the executives will be eligible to receive shares based on straight line interpolation between such points.
Vesting of the Performance Stock Units will be subject to Compensation Committee certification following fiscal year-end 2026.
