Pegasystems approves 2025 executive bonus plan with optional stock-based payout
Pegasystems' Compensation Committee approved the 2025 Section 16 Officer incentive compensation plan on February 4, 2025, covering the period January 1 to December 31, 2025. Bonuses depend on financial goals (75% weight) and strategic goals (25% weight), with no funding if goal attainment falls below 70%. The plan lets executives take half of their target bonus as restricted stock units priced at a 15% discount, which ties executive pay to share price and future vesting.
Key points
- Plan approved February 4, 2025 for the January 1 to December 31, 2025 incentive period
- Corporate goals weighted 75% financial and 25% strategic; no funding if achievement is below 70%
- Executives may elect to receive 50% of target bonus in RSUs, calculated at 85% of fair market value on the grant date
- RSUs vest 100% on or about the 2026 payout date, subject to threshold funding and continued employment
