    More detail

    Proposal 3 asks stockholders to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation paid to Richardson Electronics’ Named Executive Officers as disclosed in the proxy statement. The resolution covers the overall executive compensation program, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables, and related narrative disclosures. The vote is not directed at a single compensation element and will not legally bind the Company or limit future executive compensation. The Board and Compensation Committee state that the advisory result will be considered in future compensation decisions. Management describes the program as combining base salary, annual performance-based cash incentives, and long-term equity awards in the form of stock options and restricted stock. The stated objectives are to attract and retain qualified executives, motivate achievement of annual financial goals and long-term business strategies, and align executives’ interests with stockholders. Fiscal 2026 incentive metrics included revenue, operating income, cash and investment activity, and business-unit operating income, with awards tied to achievement against established targets. The Company also emphasizes equity grants, clawback provisions, and a prohibition on hedging Company stock as governance features supporting alignment and risk control. The Board recommends a FOR vote because it believes the program satisfies these objectives and is aligned with the long-term interests of stockholders.
