, the Compensation Committee believes Mr. Wessel’s long tenure with the Company, including 18 years as the CEO, and the significant complexity of operating over 3,000 pawn locations in five countries along with the AFF business line, warrants a salary above the median for the peer group.

Annual salary increases, typically determined in January of each year, are not guaranteed. Salary increases, if any, take into account factors such as the executive’s performance against job expectations, changes in the market, increased job responsibilities and experience. The 4% increases for 2024 were aligned with the overall salary increase budget in 2024 for the entire organization.

The following table details each NEO’s salary amounts for 2024, 2023 and 2022:
