, policies, and decisions for our NEOs discussed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysisand Executive Compensation Tablesthat follow. The Board and Compensation Committee believe that our pay-for-performance compensation philosophy has resulted in compensation for our NEOs that closely aligns to our financial results and the other performance factors described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis. In 2024, stockholders showed strong support of our executive compensation program, with approximately 96%of votes cast in favor of our say-on- pay proposal at our 2024 Annual Meeting.As such, the Compensation Committee did not make any changes to the executive compensation program for 2024 as a result of the say-on-pay vote. In accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act and as a matter of good corporate governance, we are asking stockholders to approve the following advisory resolution at our 2025 Annual Meeting: RESOLVED, that the stockholders of The Kraft Heinz Company approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to Kraft Heinz’s named executive officers, as disclosed in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s compensation disclosure rules, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the Executive Compensation Tables, and related narrative disclosure. This vote on NEO compensation is advisory and therefore will not be binding on Kraft Heinz, our Compensation Committee, or our Board. However, our Board and Compensation Committee value our stockholders’ opinions and will evaluate the results of this vote. We currently conduct this non-binding vote to approve executive compensation annually, and, unless the Board modifies its policy on the frequency of holding the non-binding vote to approve executive compensation, the next non-binding vote to approve executive compensation will take place at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
