More detail
Proposal 3 asks stockholders to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation paid to Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp.’s named executive officers as disclosed under the Compensation Discussion & Analysis and Executive Compensation Tables. The resolution is framed under Item 402 of Regulation S-K and covers the company’s disclosed executive compensation program rather than a separate compensation plan or transaction. Management is seeking the vote as part of the recurring say-on-pay process, although the company notes that it elected to hold this vote in 2026 ahead of the next required vote in 2028. The company states that its program is designed to align executive interests with stockholders through significant at-risk compensation, performance-based annual incentives and long-term equity awards. Fiscal 2026 incentives were linked principally to adjusted operating income, total company net revenue, business-unit adjusted operating income and stock-price performance. The company also emphasizes that a substantial majority of standard annual compensation was at risk, including 89% for the Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and 68% on average for the other current NEOs. The Compensation Committee used an independent compensation consultant and considered stockholder feedback, including the approximately 98.9% support received for the 2025 say-on-pay proposal. The Board recommends voting FOR because it believes the program provides competitive compensation necessary to recruit, retain, motivate and reward executives while tying pay to Company performance and long-term value creation. The vote is advisory and therefore will not bind the Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee, but management states that the voting outcome will be considered in future compensation decisions.
