-time store employee located in Latin America, where employee wages are significantly lower than wages in the U.S. The median employee’s total compensation for 2024 was $11,597, as compared to the CEO’s total 2024 compensation of $ 12,069,657, as determined in accordance with Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K.

The Company’s estimated pay ratio is influenced by a number of factors, including the geographic distribution of its employees, the mix of hourly vs. salaried employees included in its employee population and compensation trends within its specific industry. As a result of these and other variables, the Company does not believe comparisons to the pay ratios of other companies are likely to be meaningful.
