Mr. Kotler was the CEO for each of 2022, 2021 and 2020. For 2022, the other NEOs were Mr. Bassell, Mr. Bricks and Mr. Nuchamovitz. For 2021 and 2020, the other NEOs were Mr. Bassell and Mr. Bricks.
(2)
To calculate “Compensation Actually Paid,” as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, adjustments were made to the amounts reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year. A reconciliation of the adjustments for Mr. Kotler and for the average of the other NEOs is set forth following the footnotes to this table.
(3)
TSR is determined based on the value of an initial fixed income of $100 on December 23, 2020 in stock or November 30, 2020 in the peer group index. The peer group used for TSR comparisons is the S&P Retail Select Industry Index, an index in which our common stock is included.
(4)
Reflects “Net Income” in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for each of the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020.
(5)
As noted in the CD&A, EBITDA was chosen as the performance metric as the Company values EBITDA as a metric that it believes is a key indicator of our operating performance and a strong equity valuation metric. We define EBITDA as net income before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts EBITDA by excluding the gain or loss on disposal of assets, impairment charges, acquisition costs, other non-cash items, and other unusual or non-recurring charges. Adjusted EBITDA, net of incremental bonuses further adjusts Adjusted EBITDA by excluding incremental bonuses incurred for 2020 based on 2020 performance. GPM’s Adjusted EBITDA, net of incremental bonuses, is for GPM Investments, LLC, our operating subsidiary.
