| COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS |

#### STOCKHOLDER ENGAGEMENT
Our executive compensation plan for 2024 is consistent with our historical pay-for-performance approach that incorporates feedback from our stockholder outreach efforts and metrics designed to drive the performance of BWXT. We engage directly with our stockholders on governance, human capital and other topics. Based on positive feedback from our stockholders, our Compensation Committee continued with a market-based, pay-for-performance structure for our executive compensation program. See "Stockholder Engagement" above for more information on our engagement process.

### STRONG COMPENSATION GOVERNANCE PRACTICES
The following are practices we follow to incentivize performance and foster strong corporate governance on our compensation program:

| üPay for Performance.Significant emphasis on  incentive- and performance-based compensation, with 60% of annual long-term incentive awards comprised of performance RSUs.                                                                                                   
 üCompensation Program Responsive to Stockholder Feedback.We seek stockholder input and perspective on our compensation program.                                                                                                                                             
 üBenchmarking to Similarly Sized Companies.We annually review external market data prepared by our independent compensation consultant and avoid benchmarking executive pay to oversized peers by ensuring that the market data reflects companies of similar revenue size. 
 üClawbacks.We have a clawback policy that not only complies with but exceeds the NYSE listing standards, allowing us to recover compensation under our annual and long-term incentive plans in appropriate circumstances, including restatements.
