The programme consists of two phases. The first phase includes specific financial performance targets for the year 2014 (business area or corporate operating profit and working capital). The second phase consists of an additional earnings multiplier, which is based on Cargotec’s market value (including both class A and class B shares) at the end of a three year performance period in 2016. The second phase serves to align the interests to that of the shareholders as well as retention (eligible participants need to be employed by Cargotec in the beginning of 2017).
The potential reward will be delivered in Cargotec class B shares in the beginning of 2017. Gross reward, before deduction for the applicable taxes and employment related expenses, is in range of 25-120% of annual base salary for on target performance. If the targets were fully met for the maximum number of participants, the cost of the programme for the three year period would be approximately EUR 12 million. If the financial performance threshold levels were not met, there would not be any incentive payment.
As a part of total compensation, additional restricted share grants can be allocated for selected few key employees during 2014-2016. Gross reward, before deduction for the applicable taxes and employment related expenses, is in range of 50-60% of annual base salary. If the financial performance threshold levels were met for the maximum number of participants, the cost of the programme for the three year period would be approximately EUR 2.9 million. If the financial performance threshold levels were not met, there would not be any incentive payment.
No new shares will be issued in connection with the above programme and therefore the programme will have no diluting effect.
