On March 19, 2025, First BanCorp's board approved a 3.5% increase in CEO Aurelio Alemán's annual base salary and higher target incentive opportunities. The changes followed the board's annual executive pay review, with guidance from its outside compensation consultant. Because the filing describes the changes only as compensation adjustments, shareholders can see the new pay levels but not a stated financial effect.
Base salary rises 3.5%, from $1,080,000 to $1,117,800, effective April 1, 2025
Short-term incentive target rises from 115% to 125% of base salary, for fiscal 2025 performance paid in 2026

The filing does not report any financial results or guidance, so the change is best read as a leadership succession with new pay terms for the incoming executives.
Steve LeClair steps down as CEO effective March 31, 2025, and becomes executive chair; he continues as board chair.
