More detail
Proposal Three asks shareholders to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation paid to Sezzle’s named executive officers as disclosed under Item 402 of Regulation S-K. The resolution covers the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables, and the related narrative disclosure in the proxy statement. Sezzle is required to provide this opportunity under Section 14A of the Exchange Act because it ceased to qualify as an emerging growth company as of December 31, 2025. The company voluntarily held a say-on-pay vote in 2025, and approximately 98.9% of votes cast supported executive compensation. Management describes the program as combining market-competitive salaries, a profitability-based annual Profit-Sharing Incentive Plan, and substantial long-term equity awards that vest over multiple years. The 2025 program funded bonuses only after achievement of pre-established adjusted pre-bonus net income thresholds, with the company reaching a 90% payout level. The Compensation Committee also highlights governance measures including an Exchange Act Rule 10D-1-compliant clawback policy, prohibitions on hedging, limits on pledging, and an independent compensation consultant. The vote will not bind the company, Board, or Compensation Committee, but the Board says it will consider the result and shareholder feedback in future compensation decisions. The Board unanimously recommends voting FOR approval because it believes the 2025 compensation program was reasonable, appropriately aligned with company performance and strategy, and supportive of attracting and retaining high-caliber executives.
