• Authorized the largest share buyback program in Company history totaling $750 million.

• Prioritized cash flow in the best interests of stockholders and deployed $327.2 million on the repurchase of 3.5 million shares.

As a committee, we believe that our executive compensation program is crucial in driving our business strategy and aligning our leadership team with the interests of our stockholders. Our executives are incentivized to achieve strong top- and bottom-line growth as well as market-leading stockholder returns, with one of the components of their three-year equity grants being total stockholder return relative to our peers. Our stockholders have shown robust support for our compensation programs, both through direct feedback and through a vote of 99.2 percent in support of our 2024 Say-on-Pay vote. In light of this strong endorsement and the effectiveness of our programs, we maintained our designs for 2024 and kept the structure substantially intact with minor revisions for 2024. Despite the economic downturn in 2024, which affected ASGN's financial performance and that of our peer group, our annual cash incentive bonus payouts reflected our commitment to aligning pay with performance paying out at the 69 to 74 percent level for our named executive officers. In the following Executive Compensation Discussion and Analysis section, we aim to clearly outline the steps taken to support our objectives and demonstrate our unwavering focus on tying pay to performance.
