Questions and Answers About These Proxy Materials and Voting

**Why Did I Receive a One-page Notice in the Mail Regarding the Internet Availability of Proxy Materials Instead of a Full Set of Proxy Materials?** 

Pursuant to "Notice and Access" rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), we have elected to provide access to our proxy materials over the internet. Accordingly, we are sending an Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials (the "Proxy Availability Notice") to our stockholders of record. All stockholders will have the ability to access the proxy materials on the website referred to in the Proxy Availability Notice free of charge or request to receive a printed set of the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting. Instructions on how to access the proxy materials over the internet or to request a printed copy may be found in the Proxy Availability Notice. We encourage stockholders to take advantage of the availability of the proxy materials online to help reduce the environmental impact of our annual meetings and reduce our printing and mailing costs.

We expect that this Proxy Statement and the other proxy materials will be available to stockholders on or about June 25, 2025.

**Why Are You Having a Virtual Annual Meeting?** 

The Annual Meeting will be held in a virtual-only meeting format, via webcast that will provide stockholders with the ability to participate in the Annual Meeting, vote their shares and ask questions. We believe that a virtual meeting will enable expanded access and increased stockholder attendance and participation.

**How Can I Attend a Virtual Annual Meeting?** 

The Annual Meeting will be held on August 18, 2025 at 9:00 a.m. (Pacific Time) via webcast.

Only stockholders of record and beneficial owners of shares of our common stock (Class A or Class B) as of the close of business on June 23, 2025, the Record Date, may participate in the Annual Meeting, including voting and asking questions during the virtual Annual Meeting. You will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting physically in person.

Log-in using the control number located on your proxy card, voting instruction form or Proxy Availability Notice. If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of a broker, bank or other nominee, follow the instructions found on your Proxy Availability Notice or proxy card. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual meeting during the check-in or course of the annual meeting, please call the number listed on the virtual meeting site.

Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote and submit your proxy in advance of the meeting by one of the methods described in these proxy materials.

**Can I Ask Questions at the Virtual Annual Meeting?** 

Stockholders as of our Record Date who attend and participate in our virtual Annual Meeting will have an opportunity to submit questions live via the internet during a designated portion of the meeting. These stockholders may also submit a question in advance of the Annual Meeting by registering at www.virtualstockholdermeeting.com/NXT2025. In both cases, stockholders must have available their control number provided on their proxy card, voting instruction form or Proxy Availability Notice.

**What Does it Mean if I Receive More than One Proxy Availability Notice?** 

If you receive more than one Proxy Availability Notice, your shares may be registered in more than one name or in different accounts. Please follow the voting instructions on each Proxy Availability Notice to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

**Will I Receive Any Other Proxy Materials by Mail?** 

We may send you a proxy card, along with a second Proxy Availability Notice, by mail on or after June 25, 2025.

**Who Can Vote at the Annual Meeting?** 

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date of June 23, 2025 will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. On the Record Date, there were 147,832,971 shares of our Class A common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Holders of our Class A common stock are entitled to one vote per share. On the Record Date, there were no shares of our Class B common stock outstanding. Cumulative voting is not permitted with respect to the election of directors or any other matter to be considered at the Annual Meeting.

**Stockholder of record: shares registered in your name** 

If, on June 23, 2025, your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., then you are a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you may vote at the Annual Meeting or vote by proxy.

Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy over the telephone or on the internet as instructed below (see "How Do I Vote?") or, if you received a proxy card by mail, complete, date, sign and return the proxy card mailed to you to ensure your vote is counted.

**Beneficial owner: shares registered in the name of a broker, bank or other nominee** 

If, on June 23, 2025, your shares were held, not in your name, but rather in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in "street name" and the Proxy Availability Notice is being forwarded to you by the organization that holds your account. The organization holding your account is considered to be the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee regarding how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. You may attend and vote at the Annual Meeting by registering as instructed above (see "How Can I Attend a Virtual Annual Meeting?").

**What am I Voting On?** 

There are three matters scheduled for a vote at the Annual Meeting:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Election of directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte") as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers.

**What if Another Matter is Properly Brought Before the Annual Meeting?** 

Our Board of Directors (the "Board" or the "Board of Directors") knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, your proxy holder (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will vote the shares for which you grant your proxy on those matters in accordance with their best judgment.

**What is the Board's Voting Recommendation?** 

The Board recommends that you vote your shares:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "**FOR**" the election of each of the nominees for director;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "**FOR**" the ratification of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "**FOR**" the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers.

**How Do I Vote?** 

Regarding the election of directors, you may either vote "For" each of the nominees to the Board or you may "Withhold" your vote for any nominee you specify. For Proposal No. 2: Ratification of the Selection of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, and Proposal No. 3: Approval, on an Advisory Basis, of the Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers, or for any other matters to be voted on, you may vote "For" or "Against," or abstain from voting.

The procedures for voting depend on whether your shares are registered in your name or are held by a bank, broker or other nominee:

**Stockholder of record: shares registered in your name** 

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote at the Annual Meeting or vote in advance of the Annual Meeting by proxy over the telephone, by proxy through the internet or by proxy using a proxy card that you may request or that we may elect to deliver at a later time. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote in advance by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. You may still attend the Annual Meeting and vote even if you have already voted by proxy. Voting at the Annual Meeting will have the effect of revoking your previously submitted proxy (see "Can I Change My Vote After Submitting My Proxy?" below).

**Beneficial owner: shares registered in the name of a broker, bank or other nominee** 

If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of your broker, bank or other nominee, you should have received a Proxy Availability Notice containing voting instructions from that organization rather than from us. Simply follow the voting instructions in the Proxy Availability Notice to ensure that your vote is counted.

**How Many Votes Do I Have?** 

On each matter to be voted upon, you have one vote for each share of our Class A common stock you own as of June 23, 2025, the Record Date.

**What if I Return a Proxy Card or Otherwise Vote but Do Not Make Specific Choices?**

If you return a signed and dated proxy card or otherwise vote without marking voting selections, your shares will be voted, as applicable: "**FOR**" the election of each of the nominees for director; "**FOR**" the ratification of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm; and "**FOR**" the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers. If any other matter is properly presented at the Annual Meeting, your proxy holder (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will vote your shares using their best judgment.

**Will My Vote be Kept Confidential?** 

Proxies, ballots and voting tabulations identifying stockholders are handled on a confidential basis to protect your voting privacy. This information will not be disclosed, except as required by law.

**Who is Paying for this Proxy Solicitation?** 

Nextracker is paying the costs of the solicitation of proxies. We have retained D.F. King & Co., Inc. to help us solicit proxies from brokers, bank nominees and other institutions for a fee of approximately $12,500, plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. We will also reimburse brokerage firms and other persons representing beneficial owners of shares for their expenses in forwarding solicitation materials to such beneficial owners. In addition, our directors, officers, and other employees, without additional compensation, may solicit proxies personally or in writing, by telephone, e-mail, or otherwise. If you choose to access the proxy materials and/or vote over the internet, you are responsible for any internet access charges you may incur.

**Can I Change My Vote After Submitting My Proxy?** 

Yes. You can revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the Annual Meeting. If you are the record holder of your shares, you may revoke your proxy in any one of the following ways:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• You may grant a subsequent proxy via the internet or telephone.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• You may submit another properly completed proxy card with a later date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• You may send a timely written notice that you are revoking your proxy to our Secretary at 6200 Paseo Padre Parkway, Fremont, CA 94555, which must be received by August 17, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• You may attend and vote at the Annual Meeting. Simply attending the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.

Your most current proxy card or telephone or internet proxy is the one that is counted, so long as it is provided within the applicable deadline. If your shares are held by your broker, bank or other nominee, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee to change your vote or revoke your proxy or you may attend and vote at the Annual Meeting.

**When are Stockholder Proposals for Inclusion in Our Proxy Statement for Next Year's Annual Meeting Due?** 

Stockholders wishing to present proposals for inclusion in our Proxy Statement for the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders (the "2026 Annual Meeting") pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), must submit their proposals so that they are received by us at our principal executive offices no later than February 25, 2026. Proposals should be sent to our Secretary at 6200 Paseo Padre Parkway, Fremont, CA 94555.

**When are Other Proposals and Stockholder Nominations for the 2026 Annual Meeting Due?** 

With respect to proposals and nominations not to be included in our Proxy Statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, our amended and restated bylaws (our "Bylaws") provide that stockholders who wish to nominate a director or propose other business to be brought before the stockholders at an annual meeting of stockholders must notify our Secretary by a written notice, which notice must be received at our principal executive offices not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary date of the immediately preceding year's annual meeting of stockholders.

Stockholders wishing to present nominations for director or proposals for consideration at the 2026 Annual Meeting under these provisions of our Bylaws must submit their nominations or proposals so that they are received at our principal executive offices not later than May 20, 2026 and not earlier than April 20, 2026 in order to be considered. In the event that the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting is advanced more than 30 days prior to such anniversary date or delayed more than 60 days after such anniversary date then to be timely such notice must be received by the Company no earlier than 120 days prior to the 2026 Annual Meeting and no later than the later of 90 days prior to the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting or, if the first public announcement of the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting is less than 100 days prior to the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting, the 10<sup>th</sup> day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting is first made by the Company.

Nominations or proposals should be sent in writing to our Secretary at 6200 Paseo Padre Parkway, Fremont, CA 94555. A stockholder's notice to nominate a director or bring any other business before the Annual Meeting or the 2026 Annual Meeting must set forth certain information, which is specified in our Bylaws. A complete copy of our Bylaws is included as Exhibit 3.2 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025.

In addition to satisfying the foregoing requirements under our Bylaws, to comply with the universal proxy card rules, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than our nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act, which notice must be postmarked or transmitted electronically to us at our principal executive offices no later than 60 calendar days prior to the anniversary date of the Annual Meeting (for the 2026 Annual Meeting, no later than June 22, 2026). However, if the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting is changed by more than 30 calendar days from such anniversary date, then notice must be provided by the later of 60 calendar days prior to the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting or the 10th calendar day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting is first made by us.

**How are Votes Counted?** 

Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the Annual Meeting, who will separately count votes "For," votes to "Withhold" and broker non-votes for the proposal to elect directors. With respect to other proposals, the inspector of election will separately count votes "For," votes "Against," votes to "Abstain" and broker non-votes (if applicable).

**What are "Broker Non-Votes"?** 

Broker non-votes occur when a beneficial owner of shares held in "street name" does not give instructions to the broker, bank or other nominee holding the shares as to how to vote. Generally, if shares are held in street name, the beneficial owner of the shares is entitled to give voting instructions to the broker, bank or other nominee holding the shares. If the beneficial owner does not provide voting instructions, the broker, bank or other nominee can still vote the shares with respect to matters that are considered to be "routine," but cannot vote the shares with respect to "non-routine" matters. Under the rules and interpretations of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq"), which generally apply to all brokers, banks or other nominees, on voting matters characterized by Nasdaq as "routine," Nasdaq member firms have the discretionary authority to vote shares for which their customers do not provide voting instructions. On non-routine proposals, such "uninstructed shares" may not be voted by member firms. Only the proposal to ratify the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm is considered a "routine" matter for this purpose, and brokers, banks or other nominees generally have discretionary voting power with respect to such proposal. Broker non-votes will be counted for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting.

**What is the Effect of Abstentions, Votes to Withhold and Broker Non-Votes?** 

***Abstentions:*** Under Delaware law (under which we are incorporated), abstentions are counted as shares present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, but they are not counted as shares cast. Our Bylaws provide that a stockholder action (other than the election of directors) shall be decided by the vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter. Therefore, abstentions will have the same effect as "against" votes on Proposal No. 2: Ratification of the Selection of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm; or Proposal No. 3: Approval, on an Advisory Basis, of the Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers.

***Votes to Withhold:*** For Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors, you may vote "For" all or some of the nominees or you may "Withhold" your vote with respect to one or more of the nominees. The three nominees who receive the most "For" votes cast by the holders of shares either present at the Annual Meeting or represented by proxy will be elected to our Board. Broker non-votes will have no effect on Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors. In an uncontested election, "Withhold" votes will not prevent a candidate from getting elected.

***Broker Non-Votes:*** A "broker non-vote" occurs when a broker, bank or other nominee holding your shares in street name does not vote on a particular matter because you did not provide the broker, bank or other nominee voting instructions and the broker, bank or other nominee lacks discretionary voting authority to vote the shares because the matter is considered "non-routine" under of the corporate governance standards and continued listing rules of Nasdaq (together, the "Nasdaq rules"). The "non-routine" matters on the agenda for the Annual Meeting are Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors and Proposal No. 3: Approval, on an Advisory Basis, of the Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers.

Broker non-votes will be counted for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. However, because broker non-votes are not considered under Delaware law to be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, they will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors or Proposal No. 3: Approval, on an Advisory Basis, of the Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers. As a result, if you hold your shares in street name and you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee how to vote your shares on any of these three proposals, no vote will be cast on your behalf on these proposals. Therefore, it is critical that you indicate your vote on this proposal if you want your vote to be counted. The proposal to ratify the selection of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 is considered a "routine" matter. Therefore, your broker, bank or other nominee will be able to vote on Proposal No. 2: Ratification of the Selection of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm even if it does not receive instructions from you, so long as it holds your shares in its name.

---

A "Plurality," with regard to the election of directors, means that the three nominees who receive the most "For" votes cast by the holders of shares either present at the Annual Meeting or represented by proxy will be elected to our Board. A "Majority of the Voting Power Present or Represented by Proxy," with regard to each of the other proposals means that, to be approved, the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter must vote "For" the proposal.

Accordingly:

**Proposal No. 1:** For the election of directors, the three nominees receiving the most "For" votes from the holders of shares present at the Annual Meeting or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on Proposal No. 1 will be elected as directors to hold office until the 2028 annual meeting of stockholders. Only votes "For" will affect the outcome. Broker non-votes, abstentions, and votes to "Withhold" will have no effect.

**Proposal No. 2:** To be approved, the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter must vote "For" the ratification of the selection of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. Broker non-votes are not applicable with respect to Proposal No. 2 as brokers generally have discretion to vote uninstructed shares on this proposal. Abstentions will have the same effect as an "Against" vote.

**Proposal No. 3:** To be approved, the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter must vote "For" the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers. Broker non-votes will have no effect. Abstentions will have the same effect as an "Against" vote.

None of the proposals, if approved, entitles stockholders to appraisal rights under Delaware law or our certificate of incorporation.

**What is the Quorum Requirement?** 

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid stockholder meeting. A quorum will be present if stockholders holding at least a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote are present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting. On the Record Date, there were 147,832,971 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and entitled to vote and there were no shares of Class B common stock outstanding. Virtual attendance at our Annual Meeting constitutes "presence" for purposes of a quorum at the meeting.

Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy by mail, over the phone or through the internet (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you vote at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions, votes to "Withhold" and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement. If there is no quorum, then the chair of the Annual Meeting may adjourn the meeting to another date. At any adjourned Annual Meeting at which a quorum is present, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the Annual Meeting as originally notified. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, or if after that adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned Annual Meeting, a notice of the adjourned Annual Meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the adjourned Annual Meeting.

**How Can I Find Out the Results of the Voting at the Annual Meeting?** 

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. In addition, final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K that we expect to file with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Form 8-K with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting, we intend to file a Form 8-K to publish the preliminary results within four business days after the Annual Meeting and file an additional Form 8-K to publish the final results within four business days after the final results are known to us.

**If you have any questions or need assistance in voting your shares, please write to Nextracker Investor Relations at investor@nextracker.com.**

Proposal No. 1:

Election of Directors

Upon the recommendation of our Nominating, Governance and Public Responsibility Committee (the "Nom Gov Committee"), our Board has nominated the three individuals listed below to serve as Class III directors (as defined below in the section titled "Board Composition"). Our nominees are Jeffrey Guldner, Monica Karuturi and Brandi Thomas.

Each of our director nominees currently serves on the Board. The term of each Class III director who is elected at the Annual Meeting will run from the date of their election until the third annual meeting of stockholders after their election and qualification of their successor, or their earlier death, resignation or removal. The term of our Class I directors will expire at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, and the term of our Class II directors will expire at the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named in this Proxy Statement. If any nominee should become unavailable to serve for any reason, it is intended that votes will be cast for a substitute nominee designated by the Nom Gov Committee and approved by the Board. We have no reason to believe that any nominee named will be unable to serve if elected.

Our Bylaws provide that a director nominee is elected only if they receive a plurality of the votes cast with respect to their election. As a result, any shares not voted "For" a particular candidate, whether as a result of a "Withhold" vote or broker non-vote, will not be counted in such candidate's favor and will have no effect on the election results. For more information, see the section titled "Questions and Answers About These Proxy Materials and Voting" of this Proxy Statement.

Information Regarding the Board of Directors and Corporate Governance

This section describes key corporate governance guidelines and practices that we have adopted. Complete copies of the charters of the committees of the Board and our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, described below, can be found in the Governance section of the Investors section of our website at https://investors.nextracker.com/governance/governance/default.aspx. Alternatively, you can request a copy of any of these documents free of charge by writing to: Bruce Ledesma, Chief Legal and Compliance Officer & Secretary, Nextracker Inc., 6200 Paseo Padre Parkway, Fremont, CA 94555. Information on or accessible through our website is not incorporated by reference in this Proxy Statement.

**Board Composition** 

Our Board of Directors consists of eleven members, including Jonathan Coslet, who is not standing for reelection at the Annual Meeting. Effective upon Mr. Coslet's departure from the Board, the size of the Board will be reduced to ten directors. William Watkins is the Chair. The primary responsibilities of our Board are to provide oversight, strategic guidance, counseling and direction to management. Our Board meets on a regular basis and additionally, as required.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides for a classified board of directors, with our directors being divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. Directors belonging to one of the three classes are elected at each annual stockholders' meeting, with directors designated as Class III to be elected at this Annual Meeting, directors designated as Class I to be elected at the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, and directors designated as Class II to be elected at the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders. Each director's term continues until the third annual meeting of stockholders after their election and qualification of their successor, or their earlier death, resignation or removal.

**Director Independence** 

The Board's guidelines for director independence conform to the independence requirements in the Nasdaq rules for those directors deemed independent. The Board considers all relevant facts and circumstances in determining independence.

**Board Leadership Structure** 

The Board reviews its leadership structure periodically as part of its annual self-assessment process. In addition, the Board continues to monitor developments in corporate governance as well as the approaches our peers undertake.

The Board believes that it is important to retain the flexibility to allocate the responsibilities of the offices of Chair and Chief Executive Officer in any manner that it determines to be in the best interests of the Company at any point in time. The Chair and our Chief Executive Officer are currently separate. Our Chair is currently William Watkins. Our Board of Directors believes that the Company and its stockholders are best served by maintaining the flexibility to determine whether the Chair and Chief Executive Officer positions should be separated or combined at a given point in time in order to provide appropriate leadership for us at that time.

If at any time the Chair is not an independent director, the Board shall appoint a lead director who must be independent. The Chair and the Chief Executive Officer are free, as is the Board of Directors as a whole, to call upon any one or more directors to provide leadership in a given situation should a special need arise.

The Board of Directors, including each of its committees, also has complete and open access to any member of the Company's management and the authority to retain independent advisors as the Board or such committee deems appropriate. In addition, all members of each of the Audit Committee, the Nom Gov Committee and the Compensation and People Committee (the "C&P Committee") are independent directors, and the committee chairs have authority to hold executive sessions without management and non-independent directors present.

**Board Diversity** 

The Company seeks to achieve a balance and diversity of knowledge, experience and capability with respect to the directors serving on the Board. The Board considers each candidate's ability to contribute to the diversity of the Board (including diversity of experience, viewpoints, backgrounds, gender, race and ethnicity).

**Role of the Board in Risk Oversight** 

An important function of the Board is oversight of risk management at Nextracker. Risk is inherent in business, and the Board's oversight, assessment and decisions regarding risks occur in the context of and in conjunction with the other activities of the Board and its committees. The Board believes that its current governance structure facilitates its risk oversight responsibilities.

The Audit Committee manages risk by overseeing the integrity of the Company's financial statements and internal controls; the qualifications, independence and performance of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm; the performance of the Company's internal audit function; risk assessments from management with respect to cybersecurity; and the Company's compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.

The Nom Gov Committee manages risk by reviewing and evaluating the size, composition, function and duties of the Board consistent with its needs; making recommendations to the Board as to determinations of director independence; reviewing and reassessing the Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines and the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for the Company and overseeing compliance with such Code.

The C&P Committee manages risk by reviewing and assessing risks arising from the Company's employee compensation policies and practices and whether any such risks are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the company; working with the Chief Executive Officer to plan for the succession of the Chief Executive Officer and other senior executive officers, including developing plans for interim or emergency succession; and overseeing the Company's human capital management strategy.

It is the responsibility of the committee chairs to report findings regarding material risk exposures to the Board as quickly as possible. Our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Legal and Compliance Officer & Secretary coordinate between the Board and management with regard to the determination and implementation of responses to any problematic risk management issues.

**Meetings of the Board of Directors** 

The Board oversees our business. It establishes overall policies and standards and reviews the performance of management. From April 1, 2024 to March 31, 2025, the Board held 7 meetings. Each Board member attended 75% or more of the aggregate meetings of the Board and of the committees on which they served held during the period for which they were a director or committee member. Our directors are encouraged to attend our annual meetings of stockholders, but we do not currently have a policy relating to director attendance. Each of our then directors attended the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders (the "2024 Annual Meeting").

The Board and each of our standing committees typically hold an executive session of non-management directors as a part of every regularly scheduled quarterly meeting.

**Information Regarding Committees of the Board of Directors** 

The Board has a number of committees that perform certain functions for the Board. The current committees of the Board are the Audit Committee, the C&P Committee and the Nom Gov Committee. Below is a description of each committee of the Board. Each of the committees has authority to engage legal counsel or other experts or consultants, as it deems appropriate to carry out its responsibilities.

**Audit Committee** 

The Board has a separately designated standing Audit Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58) of the Exchange Act. The Audit Committee was established by the Board to assist the Board in its oversight of the integrity of our financial statements and internal controls, and our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. In addition, the Audit Committee is responsible for the oversight of the qualification, independence and performance of our independent registered public accounting firm as well as the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm.

The Audit Committee consists of Julie Blunden, Steven Mandel and Brandi Thomas, with Ms. Thomas serving as chairperson. Our Board has determined (i) that each of Julie Blunden, Steven Mandel and Brandi Thomas satisfies the requirements for independence and financial literacy under the rules and regulations of Nasdaq and the SEC and (ii) that Brandi Thomas qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert" as defined in the SEC rules and regulations and satisfies the financial sophistication requirements of Nasdaq. In making these determinations, the Board relied on the past business experience of each director. This designation does not impose any duties, obligations or liabilities that are greater than are generally imposed on members of our Audit Committee and our Board of Directors.

A majority of the members of the Audit Committee satisfy the independence requirements under the Nasdaq rules and the rules of the SEC. Based on the Board's assessment, we have determined that the current composition of our Audit Committee will not materially adversely affect its ability to act independently and to carry out its responsibilities, identified immediately below.

Our Audit Committee is directly responsible for, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• selecting and hiring our registered public accounting firm;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• evaluating the performance and independence of our registered public accounting firm;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• pre-approving all audit and any permitted non-audit services to be performed by our registered public accounting firm;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing the integrity of our financial statements and related disclosures and reviewing our critical accounting policies and practices;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing the adequacy and effectiveness of our internal control policies and procedures and our disclosure controls and procedures;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• overseeing procedures for the treatment of complaints relating to accounting, internal accounting controls or audit matters;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and discussing with management and the registered public accounting firm the results of the annual audit, our quarterly financial statements and our publicly filed reports;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• establishing procedures for employees to anonymously submit concerns about questionable accounting or audit matters;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing the effect of legal, regulatory and accounting initiatives on the Company's financial statements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing the effect of off-balance sheet arrangements, if any, on the Company's financial statements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and approving in advance any proposed related-person transactions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the administration of our related party transaction policy; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• preparing the audit committee report that the SEC requires in our annual proxy statement.

Our Audit Committee operates under a written charter that satisfies the applicable rules of the SEC and the Nasdaq rules. The Audit Committee met 8 times in fiscal year 2025. The Audit Committee charter can be found in the Governance section of the Investors section of our website at https://investors.nextracker.com/governance/governance/default.aspx. Information on or accessible through our website is not incorporated by reference in this Proxy Statement. The Audit Committee charter grants the Audit Committee authority to obtain, at our expense, advice and assistance from internal and external legal, accounting or other advisors and consultants and other external resources that the Audit Committee considers necessary or appropriate in the performance of its duties.

As required by its charter, the Audit Committee conducts a self-evaluation at least annually. The Audit Committee also reviews and assesses the adequacy of its charter at least annually and recommends any proposed changes to the Board for its consideration.

The Board annually reviews the Nasdaq rules' definition of independence for Audit Committee members and has determined that all members of our Audit Committee are "financially literate" under the Nasdaq rules and that members of the Audit Committee received no compensation from the Company other than for service as a director.

**Compensation and People Committee** 

The C&P Committee consists of Julie Blunden, Jonathan Coslet, Monica Karuturi and Willy Shih, with Mr. Shih serving as chairperson. Our Board has determined that each of Julie Blunden, Jonathan Coslet, Monica Karuturi and Willy Shih satisfies the requirements for independence under the rules and regulations of Nasdaq.

Our C&P Committee is responsible for, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and recommending to the Board for approval the compensation for our Chief Executive Officer, as well as any employment, consulting, severance, change in control, termination or separation agreements between the Company and the Chief Executive Officer;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and approving the compensation for all of our other officers, as well as any employment, severance, consulting, change in control, termination or separation agreements between the Company and our other officers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• administering our equity compensation plans;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• overseeing our overall compensation policies and practices;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing the Company's management succession planning and developing plans for interim or emergency succession for executive officers; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and approving the compensation committee report that the SEC requires in our annual proxy statement.

Our C&P Committee operates under a written charter that satisfies the applicable rules of the SEC and the listing standards of the Nasdaq. The C&P Committee met 5 times in fiscal year 2025. The C&P Committee charter can be found in the Governance section of the Investors section of our website https://investors.nextracker.com/governance/governance/default.aspx. Information on or accessible through our website is not incorporated by reference in this Proxy Statement. The C&P Committee charter grants the C&P Committee sole authority to retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser, including the authority to approve the consultant's reasonable compensation. The C&P Committee may select such advisers, or receive advice from any other adviser, only after taking into consideration all factors relevant to that person's independence from management, including those independence factors enumerated by Nasdaq rules.

Under the C&P Committee charter, the C&P Committee may, in its discretion, delegate its duties to a subcommittee.

As required by its charter, the C&P Committee conducts a self-evaluation at least annually. The C&P Committee also annually reviews and assesses the adequacy of its charter and recommends any proposed changes to the Board for its consideration.

**Compensation and People Committee Processes and Procedures** 

The implementation of our compensation philosophy is carried out under the supervision of the C&P Committee. The C&P Committee charter requires that the C&P Committee meet as often as its members deem necessary to perform its responsibilities under the charter. The agenda for each meeting is usually developed by the chairperson of the C&P Committee, in consultation with other C&P Committee members, management and the C&P Committee's independent advisors. The C&P Committee also meets regularly in executive session. Meetings may, at the discretion of the C&P Committee, include other directors or members of management in addition to the C&P Committee's independent advisors, for the purpose of providing analysis and information to assist management with their recommendations on various compensation matters. Management does not participate in the executive sessions of the C&P Committee. For a description of the role of our management and any compensation consultants for executive compensation decisions for fiscal year 2025, please see the section titled "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" of this Proxy Statement.

**Compensation and People Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation** 

During fiscal year 2025, Julie Blunden, Jonathan Coslet and Willy Shih served on the C&P Committee. None of our executive officers currently serves, or has served during the last year, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of our Board.

**Nominating, Governance and Public Responsibility Committee** 

The Nominating, Governance and Public Responsibility Committee ("Nom Gov Committee") is generally responsible for identifying qualified Board candidates, recommending director nominees and appointments to Board committees, evaluating Board performance and overseeing our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. The Nom Gov Committee consists of Jeffrey Guldner, Mark Menezes and William Watkins, with Mr. Watkins serving as chairperson. Our Board has determined that each of Jeffrey Guldner, Mark Menezes and William Watkins satisfies the requirements for independence under the rules and regulations of Nasdaq and the SEC.

Our Nom Gov Committee is responsible for, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• identifying, recruiting, evaluating and recommending candidates for service as members of the Board and as members of committees of the Board consistent with criteria approved by the Board, including assessing a candidate's independence and, in the case of candidates for membership on the Board's Audit Committee, financial literacy and expertise;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and considering stockholder-recommended candidates for nomination to the Board;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• shaping and overseeing the application of the Company's environmental, social and corporate governance guidelines, policies and procedures, and compliance with laws and regulations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• overseeing Board communications with stockholders, stockholder proposals and stockholder activism;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing conflicts of interest of our directors and officers and proposed waivers of our corporate governance guidelines and Code of Business Conducts and Ethics; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• assessing the composition and performance of the Board and the committees of the Board and the performance of each individual director.

The Nom Gov Committee met 4 times in fiscal year 2025. Our Nom Gov Committee operates under a written charter that satisfies the applicable rules of the SEC and the Nasdaq rules. A detailed discussion of the Nom Gov Committee's procedures for recommending candidates for election as a director appears below under the caption "Procedures of the Nominating, Governance and Public Responsibility Committee."

The Nom Gov Committee charter can be found in the Governance section of the Investors section of our website at https://investors.nextracker.com/governance/governance/default.aspx. The Nom Gov Committee charter complies with the guidelines established by Nasdaq. Information on, or accessible through, our website is not incorporated by reference in this Proxy Statement. The charter of the Nom Gov Committee grants the Nom Gov Committee authority to retain and terminate any advisers, including search firms to identify director candidates, compensation consultants as to director compensation and legal counsel, including sole authority to approve all such advisers' fees and other retention terms.

**Procedures of the Nominating, Governance and Public Responsibility Committee** 

In connection with nominating directors for election at the Annual Meeting and periodically throughout the year, the Nom Gov Committee considers the composition of the Board and each committee of the Board to evaluate its effectiveness and whether changes should be considered to either the Board or any of the committees. In support of this process, the Board has determined that the Board as a whole must be inclusive and have the right balance and diversity of knowledge, experience and capability for the optimal functioning of the Board in its oversight of our Company. The Board considers the following factors and qualifications, without limitation:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the appropriate size and the diversity of the Board;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the needs of the Board with respect to the particular talents and experience of its directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the knowledge, skills and experience of nominees, including experience in the industry in which we operate, business, finance, management or public service, in light of prevailing business conditions and the knowledge, skills and experience already possessed by other members of the Board;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• familiarity with domestic and international business matters;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• familiarity and experience with legal and regulatory requirements; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• experience with accounting rules and practices.

**Considerations in Evaluating Director Nominees** 

Pursuant to the Nom Gov Committee charter, the Nom Gov Committee periodically reviews the composition of the Board in light of current challenges and needs of the Board and the Company and determines whether it may be appropriate to add or remove individuals after considering issues of judgment, diversity, skills, background and experience. Although the Nom Gov Committee does not have a formal policy regarding diversity on the Board, the Nom Gov Committee is sensitive to the importance of nominating persons with different perspectives and experience to enhance the deliberation and decision-making processes of the Board. The Nom Gov Committee also considers applicable laws and regulations and Nasdaq listing standards.

Once the Nom Gov Committee and the Board determine that it is appropriate to add a new director, either as a replacement or as a new position, the Nom Gov Committee uses a flexible set of procedures in selecting individual director candidates. Rather than applying specific minimum criteria in identifying candidates, the Nom Gov Committee seeks candidates with high professional and personal ethics and values, a general understanding of various business disciplines (e.g., marketing, finance, etc.), an understanding of the Company's business and industry, educational and professional background, analytical ability, willingness to devote adequate time to Board duties and ability to act in and represent the balanced best interests of the Company and its stockholders as a whole, rather than special constituencies. This flexibility allows the Nom Gov Committee to adjust the process to best satisfy the objectives it is attempting to accomplish in any director search. The first step in the general process is to identify the type of candidate the Nom Gov Committee may desire for a particular opening, including establishing the specific target skill areas, experiences and backgrounds that are to be the focus of a director search. The Nom Gov Committee may consider candidates recommended by management, by members of the Nom Gov Committee, by the Board, by stockholders or by a third party it may engage to conduct a search for possible candidates. In considering candidates submitted by stockholders, the Nom Gov Committee will take into consideration the needs of the Board, and the qualifications of the candidate. In evaluating recommendations submitted by stockholders, the Board will evaluate such prospective nominees using the same standards that are applicable for all Board candidates.

Once candidates are identified, the Nom Gov Committee conducts an evaluation of qualified candidates. The evaluation generally includes interviews and background and reference checks. As noted above, there is no difference in the evaluation process of a candidate recommended by a stockholder as compared to the evaluation process of a candidate identified by any of the other means described above. In identifying and evaluating potential nominees to serve as directors, the Nom Gov Committee will examine each nominee on a case-by-case basis regardless of who recommended the nominee and take into account all factors it considers appropriate.

If the Nom Gov Committee determines that a candidate should be nominated as a candidate for election to the Board, the candidate's nomination is then recommended to the Board, and the directors may in turn conduct their own review to the extent they deem appropriate. When the Board has agreed upon a candidate, such candidate is recommended to the stockholders for election at an annual meeting of stockholders or appointed as a director by a vote of the Board as appropriate.

**Stockholder Communications with the Board of Directors** 

Our relationship with our stockholders is an important part of our corporate governance program. Engaging with our stockholders helps us to understand how they view us, to set goals and expectations for our performance, and to identify emerging issues that may affect our strategies, corporate governance, compensation practices or other aspects of our operations. Our stockholder and investor outreach includes investor road shows, analyst meetings and investor conferences and meetings. We also communicate with stockholders and other stakeholders through various media, including our annual report and SEC filings, proxy statement, news releases and our website. Our conference calls for quarterly earnings releases are open to all. These calls are available in real time and as archived webcasts on our website for a period of time.

The Board has adopted a process for stockholders and others to send communications to the Board or any director. All such communications should be sent by mail addressed to the Board or any particular director at 6200 Paseo Padre Parkway, Fremont, CA 94555, c/o Bruce Ledesma, Chief Legal and Compliance Officer & Secretary. All such communications received by Bruce Ledesma will be sent directly to the Board or the particular director indicated.

**Code of Business Conduct and Ethics** 

Our Board of Directors has adopted a code of ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other executive and senior financial officers. The full text of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available in the Governance section of the Investors section of our website at https://investors.nextracker.com/governance/governance/default.aspx. Information on or accessible through our website is not incorporated by reference in this Proxy Statement. We intend to disclose future amendments to our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, or any waivers of such code, on our website or in public filings.

Proposal No. 2:

Ratification of the Selection of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On February 13, 2025, our Audit Committee selected Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. Deloitte has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2021. Representatives of Deloitte plan to attend the Annual Meeting and will be available to answer appropriate questions from stockholders. They will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so.

Neither our Bylaws nor other governing documents or law require stockholder ratification of the selection of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm. However, the Board is submitting the selection of Deloitte to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the stockholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether to retain Deloitte. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders.

Proposal No. 3:

Approval, on an Advisory Basis, of the Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers

We are required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act to offer our stockholders an opportunity to cast an advisory, non-binding vote on the compensation of our named executive officers, as disclosed in this Proxy Statement, pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act enacted in July 2010 (the "Dodd-Frank Act") (commonly referred to as a "say-on-pay" vote). This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this Proxy Statement. Although the vote is non-binding, we value constructive feedback from our stockholders on executive compensation and other important matters, and the Board and the C&P Committee will consider the voting results when making future compensation decisions. In a decision that factored in the non-binding advisory vote of our stockholders at our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders on the frequency of stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers, we determined to hold a non-binding, advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers annually. We expect to hold our next non-binding, advisory vote on the frequency of say-on-pay votes at our 2029 annual meeting of stockholders.

| **The Board of Directors recommends a vote "FOR" approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers.** |

---

As described under the heading "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" in this Proxy Statement, our executive compensation program is designed to attract, retain and motivate top-level talent who possess the skills and leadership necessary to grow our business and enable long-term value creation. The Board encourages our stockholders to read the disclosures set forth in the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" section of this Proxy Statement to review the compensation actions taken in fiscal year 2025. The Board believes that our executive compensation program effectively aligns executive pay with our performance and results in the attraction and retention of talented executives who are critical to our success.

Accordingly, the Board recommends that our stockholders vote "For" the following resolution:

"**RESOLVED**, that the compensation paid to the named executive officers, as disclosed in the proxy statement furnished for the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and related narrative discussion, is hereby APPROVED on an advisory basis."

Because the vote is advisory, it is not binding on management or the Board. Nevertheless, the views expressed by our stockholders, whether through this vote or otherwise, are important to management and the Board and, accordingly, the C&P Committee and the Board intend to consider the results of this vote in making determinations in the future regarding executive compensation arrangements. Your vote will serve as an additional tool to guide the C&P Committee and the Board in continuing to improve the alignment of our executive compensation program with business objectives and performance and with the interests of our stockholders.

**Vote Required** 

To be approved, the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter must vote "For" the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers. Broker non-votes will have no effect. Abstentions will have the same effect as an "Against" vote.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis ("CD&A") describes our executive compensation philosophy, process and objectives and the elements of our fiscal year 2025 ("FY25") compensation program for our named executive officers ("NEOs"). It gives the context for understanding and evaluating the compensation information contained in the tables and related disclosures that follow. Our NEOs for FY25 are as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Name** | **Position** |
| **Daniel Shugar** | Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") & Director |
| **Howard Wenger** | President & Director |

| **Bruce Ledesma** | Chief Legal & Compliance Officer |
| **Nicholas (Marco) Miller** | Chief Operating Officer |

**FY25 Financial and Business Highlights** 

We had another exceptionally strong year in FY25, as we saw record revenue and profits as highlighted below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• FY25 Revenue - $2,959 million (18% year-over-year growth)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• FY25 GAAP Net Income - $517 million (4.2% year-over-year growth)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• FY25 GAAP Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities - $656 million (53% year-over-year growth)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• FY25 Adjusted Free Cash Flow\* - $622 million (46% year-over-year growth)

**Our Compensation Philosophy** 

**Overview** 

Our compensation philosophy is driven by our pay-for-performance culture, which incentivizes the achievement of a balanced set of performance objectives with respect to Nextracker through the implementation of the following objectives:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Drive business success** | Our executive compensation program is designed to drive our success as a market leader in intelligent, integrated solar tracker and related yield management solutions used in utility-scale and distributed generation solar projects around the world. |
| **Pay meaningfully aligned to performance** | Nextracker's compensation program is designed to tie actual pay for our NEOs to Nextracker's performance against rigorous short-term and long-term performance objectives. This pay-for-performance compensation philosophy aims to create stockholder value, where above-target performance should be rewarded when achieved, and below-target performance should lead to reduced compensation, including zero payouts when minimum performance thresholds are not met. |
| **Attract, retain and motivate superior talent** | Our compensation program is intended to be competitive in order to attract, retain and motivate a high-caliber and responsible leadership team. A key objective of the compensation program is to provide competitive compensation opportunities based on the achievement of performance objectives, while balancing the need to avoid excessive or inappropriate risk-taking and maintaining an appropriate cost structure. |
| **Aligning compensation with stockholder interests** | Equity awards with multi-year vesting and performance requirements, along with rigorous stock ownership guidelines, help align our NEOs' compensation with the creation of long-term stockholder return and align the interests of our executive officers with our stockholders. |
| **Peer group analysis** | Peer group data is used as a guide for compensation decisions, but this data does not form the sole basis for our compensation program. |

---

To ensure that our executive compensation program aligns the interests of our NEOs with those of our stockholders, we utilize performance metrics for both our short-term and long-term incentive programs that are key drivers of stockholder value. We also ensure that a substantial portion of performance-based compensation is delivered through equity awards.

Our Compensation & People Committee ("C&P Committee") oversees our executive compensation program based on the following philosophy and guiding principles.

---

| | |

| **Substantial emphasis on at-risk compensation** |  |
| **Substantial emphasis on at-risk compensation** |  |
| **Substantial emphasis on at-risk compensation** | 100% of at-risk compensation is based on achievement of incentive outcomes against pre-determined performance metrics. |
| **Focus on long-term performance** | While measurement of short-term results maintains day-to-day focus, our compensation philosophy is also built on the premise that stockholder value is built over the long term. |
| **Focus on long-term performance** |  |
| **Focus on long-term performance** |  |
| **Focus on long-term performance** | We require our NEOs to own a significant amount of Nextracker equity to ensure a continued link between the interests of our NEOs and our stockholders. |

| ![Yellow Checkmark.gif](nxt-20250625_g9.gif) | **Clawback policy** | We maintain a clawback policy which mandates recoupment of officers' incentive-based compensation in case of an accounting restatement due to U.S. securities law noncompliance under Rule 10D-1 of the Dodd-Frank Act. A more detailed summary of Nextracker's clawback policy can be found [on page 49](#ia8b66e5e749c470a8066589609b6a818_4108). |

**Say-On-Pay Advisory Vote Results and Stockholder Engagement** 

**2024 Say-On-Pay Voting Results**

At our 2024 Annual Meeting, we held a non-binding advisory vote with respect to the compensation of our NEOs (commonly referred to as a "say-on-pay" vote). Approximately 85% of the votes cast (excluding abstentions) voted in favor of our executive compensation program.

In addition to our annual "say-on-pay" vote, the C&P Committee is committed to ongoing engagement with our stockholders to gain valuable insight into the issues that matter most to them and to enable Nextracker to address them effectively. We routinely interact and communicate with stockholders through a number of forums, including through investor meetings and conferences. During FY25, we reached out to 90% of our top 20 stockholders and ultimately engaged with 176 stockholders, representing, in the aggregate, over 74% of our outstanding capital stock. These discussions included feedback on various topics important to Nextracker, including executive compensation.

**Concrete Actions Taken in Response to Shareholder Engagement**

In light of this shareholder engagement, our C&P Committee listened to the feedback received from our shareholders and made important changes to our FY25 Executive Compensation Program from prior years.

In particular, our shareholders expressed a desire that each performance-based component of an executive's compensation be measured based on distinctive, unique metrics. While our fiscal year 2024 ("FY24") performance-based restricted stock units ("PSUs") and our fiscal year 2023 ("FY23") PSUs had some overlapping metrics with our short-term incentive plan, our C&P Committee adjusted the underlying performance metrics in our FY25 executive compensation program to provide unique and separate metrics for FY25 PSU achievement and FY25 STIP (as defined below) achievement. We believe these changes were directly responsive to the feedback we received from our shareholders. See "Compensation-Setting Process and FY25 Executive Compensation – Overview – FY25 Compensation Components" below for more information.

**Compensation-Setting Process and FY25 Executive Compensation** 

**Overview – FY25 Compensation Components** 

As further described below, Nextracker's FY25 executive compensation program was primarily comprised of base salary, short-term incentive compensation under our incentive bonus plan (as described below) and our long-term incentive compensation under the LTIP (as defined below).

**The C&P Committee's Role** 

Our C&P Committee, which is comprised entirely of independent directors, is responsible for implementing, monitoring and evaluating our executive compensation philosophy and objectives and oversees the compensation program for our NEOs. Further, our C&P Committee reviews and approves, or recommends to the independent directors of the Board for approval, all components of executive pay and reports its decisions to the Board, and otherwise reviews and approves matters related to executive compensation on an as-needed basis.

The C&P Committee's responsibilities and authority are described fully in the C&P Committee's charter, which is available on our website https://investors.nextracker.com/governance/governance/default.aspx.

**The C&P Committee and Management's Involvement** 

Our CEO makes recommendations to our C&P Committee for changes to base salary, annual incentive awards and equity grants for our NEOs (other than our CEO, whose compensation is determined solely by our C&P Committee and the Board). Our Chief Human Resources Officer also provides recommendations to the C&P Committee on other elements of our compensation program for senior executives, including, for example, the design and metrics under our annual and long-term programs.

**The C&P Committee and its Independent Compensation Consultant** 

Our C&P Committee engaged the services of Meridian as the independent compensation consultant for the C&P Committee for FY25 to provide advice on executive compensation matters. Meridian did not provide any other services to Nextracker or its management.

The C&P Committee regularly reviews, no less than annually, the independence of its compensation consultant in accordance with SEC and Nasdaq requirements. At this time, the C&P Committee has determined that no conflict of interest exists for our compensation consultant.

**Nextracker Compensation Benchmarks and Peer Group** 

The C&P Committee develops, determines and adjusts compensation benchmarks and the peer group with respect to Nextracker (the "Peer Group"). The C&P Committee reviews the Peer Group on an annual basis, with input from Meridian, and the Peer Group may be adjusted from time to time based on, among other factors, a comparison of revenues, market capitalization, industry, peer group performance, merger and acquisition activity and stockholder input. Based on the advice of Meridian, the following companies were designated as the Peer Group with respect to our compensation program for FY25:

(1)National Instruments Corporation was acquired by Emerson Electric in October 2023.

(2)SunPower Corporation filed for bankruptcy in August 2024.

The C&P Committee considers the compensation provided by companies in our Peer Group in order to provide insight into market competitive pay programs, levels and practices. We compete with some of the companies in our Peer Group to attract key employees which is considered by the C&P Committee in our compensation design and practices. In addition, the C&P Committee also reviews standardized surveys of large technology and manufacturing firms to evaluate the competitiveness of Nextracker's compensation programs in the context of general compensation practices.

**Appropriate Pay Mix** 

Our FY25 compensation philosophy is designed around "pay-for-performance" so that a significant portion of our NEOs' total target direct compensation is "at-risk." In determining the mix of the various reward elements and the value of each component, the C&P Committee considered the executive's role, the competitiveness of the market for executive talent, company performance, individual performance, internal pay equity, historical compensation and retention concerns. Executive officers generally have a greater portion of their compensation at risk through short- and long-term incentive programs than the rest of our employee population because of their relatively greater responsibility and ability to influence Nextracker's performance.

As illustrated by the charts below, we have adopted a more performance-based, "at-risk" compensation structure than our Peer Group, reinforcing our strong alignment with shareholder outcomes. For FY25, approximately 95% of our CEO's and 91% of our other NEOs' annual target total direct compensation were "at-risk"—meaning they were contingent on the achievement of defined service and/or performance goals. By comparison, our Peer Group's averages were 90% for CEOs and 84% for NEOs, underscoring Nextracker's commitment to pay-for-performance principles.

![Nextracker CEO NEO Charts.jpg](nxt-20250625_g29.jpg)

The STIP is reflected at target and does not reflect the actual payout. PSUs, restricted stock units ("RSUs") and stock options are reflected at their approved target grant date fair value. The amounts exclude Mr. Boynton's one-time sign-on bonus and one sign-on award of RSUs but include Mr. Boynton's FY25 annual RSU and PSU awards.

**Base Salary** 

The following table sets forth the base salaries of our NEOs with respect to FY25.

Generally, we establish the initial base salaries of our executive officers through arm's-length negotiation at the time of hire, taking into account his or her position, qualifications, experience, prior salary level, and the base salaries of our other executive officers. Thereafter, our C&P Committee reviews the base salaries of each NEO annually and makes adjustments, if any, as it determines to be reasonable and necessary.

(1)Mr. Boynton began serving as Chief Financial Officer effective May 29, 2024. Mr. Boynton's base salary is annualized for FY25.

Base salary levels are intended to reflect competitive market data, individual performance and promotions or changes in responsibilities.

**Short-Term Incentive Plan** 

For FY25, short-term incentive bonuses for our NEOs were earned pursuant to the Nextracker short-term incentive plan (the "STIP") based on achievement of financial and operating performance objectives, as well as individual performance objectives, when applicable.

The performance objectives for our NEOs under the STIP for FY25 were as follows (weighted by percentage):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Adjusted EBITDA\* (50%);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Adjusted free cash flow\* (30%);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Strategic milestones (20%); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Individual performance factor (adjusts bonus payout by 0%—100%).

\* &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Adjusted EBITDA" and "adjusted free cash flow" are non-GAAP financial measures. See Appendix A of this Proxy Statement for definitions of these non-GAAP measures and a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures.

As noted above, the STIP included a 20% weighting on Nextracker strategic milestones. Our C&P Committee removed the revenue financial metric present in the FY24 STIP in an effort to remove any redundancy between the FY25 STIP metrics and the FY25 PSU award metrics. The C&P Committee instead chose strategic milestones that were designed to drive long-term stockholder value. These strategic milestones were in addition to FY25 financial measures in order to provide a balanced evaluation of executive performance based on how the Company actually measures success. The FY25 strategic milestone goals are components of the Company's four key mission objectives: innovation, customers, execution and team. The FY25 strategic milestone goals for each of these objectives were as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Objective** | **FY25 Goals** |
| **Innovation**<br>Create differentiated solutions and real benefits that improve clean energy's value | **• Enhance core tracker products and related technologies**<br>**• Develop & launch non-tracker products** |
| **Customers**<br>Focus relentlessly on customers, earning the highest satisfaction levels | **• Elevate customer NPS scores**<br>**• Achieve increased market share in target markets**<br>**• Improve software, service and non-tracker products** |
| **Execution**<br>Deliver results on time with scalable processes that generate profitable growth | **• Improve manufacturing capacity**<br>**• Deliver world class business systems and customer journey platform**<br>**• Improve organizational efficiency** |
| **Team**<br>Cultivate a diverse, high-performing culture with people passionate about clean energy | **• Improve global talent density, professional development and succession depth**<br>**• Achieve safety scores and ESG targets** |

---

Upon the completion of FY25, the C&P Committee evaluated the actual achievement of each of these strategic milestone goals against the target level of achievement when these goals were approved. Each of the FY25 strategic milestones were weighted, scored and then aggregated for a final achievement amount which was approved by the C&P Committee.

Additionally, the STIP included an individual performance factor that also affects the individual funding of each of our NEOs' bonus. Under this component, each NEO's individual performance is measured based on a variety of quantitative and qualitative measures designed to measure progress and drive achievement of various confidential strategic and operating objectives. This individual measure was scored on a scale of 0-100% and the resulting percentage was then multiplied against the aggregate eligible bonus amounts derived from achievement of the applicable adjusted EBITDA, adjusted free cash flow and strategic milestone performance metrics. The individual performance metrics were the same for each NEO in FY25, and the C&P Committee determined that this amount was 100% for FY25.

**Incentive payouts for NEOs under the STIP** 

Performance targets for FY25 were approved by the C&P Committee upon consultation with Meridian and management and based on approved financial and strategic plans. For each of the FY25 performance measures, no payout would be made if an applicable threshold performance level was not achieved. Maximum payout levels for such measures were tied to "stretch" levels of performance. As noted above, payouts are also increased or decreased upon achievement or non-achievement, respectively, of certain pre-established strategic and operating objectives during FY25. Taking into account these increases and decreases, the combined actual weighted payout (as a percentage of target performance) is set forth in the following chart with respect to the applicable FY25 adjusted EBITDA, adjusted free cash flow and strategic milestone performance metrics, as follows:

| **Total Achievement** |  |  |  |  |  |  | **177.9** |

---

Total weighted performance achievement with respect to such FY25 performance measures resulted in gross achievement of 177.9% relative to target performance.

We used adjusted non-GAAP performance measures (i.e., adjusted EBITDA and adjusted free cash flow) for purposes of our STIP in FY25. See Appendix A for definitions of adjusted EBITDA (with respect to the adjusted EBITDA performance metric) and adjusted free cash flow (with respect to the adjusted free cash flow performance metric) and a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures.

For purposes of calculating performance under the FY25 STIP, we exclude from the calculation of performance extraordinary items or events that would have had an unanticipated impact, corporate transactions (including acquisitions or dispositions) and other unusual or nonrecurring items (i.e., as and when applicable, although no such items or events were applied for FY25).

**Target and final short-term incentive awards for FY25** 

For FY25, the aggregate short-term incentive payouts for our NEOs, after adjustment for individual performance, were as follows:

**Long-term incentive compensation** 

Our long-term incentive compensation program consists of a mix of RSUs, PSUs and stock options granted under the 2022 Plan (the "LTIP").

In FY25, our NEOs received grants of RSUs, PSUs and stock option awards under our LTIP as an incentive to maximize our long-term performance and drive value creation for our stockholders. These long-term incentives are designed to align the interests of the NEOs with those of our stockholders and to give each NEO a significant incentive to manage Nextracker from the perspective of an owner with a direct stake in the business. Long-term equity awards are also intended to promote retention, as unvested awards are forfeited if an executive voluntarily leaves Nextracker.

**Performance stock unit awards – FY25** 

PSUs provide for vesting upon the attainment of the applicable performance criteria, generally subject to the NEO's continuous service until the applicable vesting date. The PSUs granted in FY25 provide for (i) a one fiscal-year measurement period (April 1, 2024 – March 31, 2025) based on the achievement of certain financial metrics (as described below) and (ii) a cumulative three-year relative TSR modifier ("rTSR"). PSUs remain subject to a service-based vesting requirement through the completion of the entire performance period, and vest on the third anniversary of the grant date. Subject to satisfying such service-based vesting requirement, the number of PSUs that vest is based on the extent to which the relevant performance criteria is attained. Payouts are made in shares. Before the PSUs vest, the holder has no ownership rights in the shares and is not entitled to dividends or dividend equivalents. PSUs granted in FY25 vest between 0% and 300% of target. Total payout under the FY25 PSUs cannot exceed 300% of target.

With respect to the PSUs granted in FY25, (i) 50% of the performance criteria are based on Nextracker's achievement of a revenue goal in FY25 and (ii) 50% of the performance criteria are based on Nextracker's achievement of an adjusted diluted earnings-per-share ("EPS") goal in FY25. In addition, the PSUs are subject to a three-year rTSR modifier based on the level of Nextracker's total shareholder return performance against that of our executive compensation peer group, with 0.75x applied for rTSR achievement at the 25<sup>th</sup> percentile, 1.0x applied for achievement at the 50<sup>th</sup> percentile and 1.5x applied for achievement at the 75<sup>th</sup> percentile (with linear interpolation applied). The three-year rTSR modifier is capped at 1.5x. The financial metrics can each be earned between 0% and 200% of target and the rTSR modifier can adjust the payout levels under the financial component from 75% to 150% (for a maximum total payout of 300% of target).

(1)Mr. Boynton was hired as CFO on May 29, 2024. In connection with his appointment, Mr. Boynton received an PSU award under the Company's LTIP with a grant-date fair value of approximately $3,000,000.

The target value of the PSUs is based on the 30-day weighted average grant date value per share of $44.69, except for Mr. Boynton which amount is $45.96. The number of PSUs initially earned may be lower or higher than the amounts indicated depending on the overall achievement of the three-year TSR modifier.

**Restricted stock unit awards – FY25** 

RSUs granted to our NEOs in FY25 vest in three annual installments on the first three anniversaries of the vesting commencement date of April 1, 2025 (30%, 30% and 40%, respectively), generally subject to the NEO's continuous service until such vesting date. Payouts are made in shares, such that the value of an RSU increases or decreases based on share price performance from the grant date, further aligning the interests of the executive with long-term stockholder value creation. Before an RSU vests, the holder has no ownership rights in the shares and is not entitled to dividends or dividend equivalents. The table below sets forth the number of RSUs granted to our NEOs in FY25:

---

**Stock Option awards - FY25** 

The stock option awards are not intended to be part of the ongoing long-term incentive plan mix, but are an interim vehicle used to enhance holdings and retentions to further align the executives to drive the growth and shareholder return during the initial transition to an independent public company, following the spin-off from Flex, which occurred at the end of FY24. The C&P Committee anticipates fiscal year 2026 ("FY26") will be the last year stock options will be granted to our executives as part of their regular executive compensation program.

Stock option awards granted to our NEOs in FY25 cliff vest on the third anniversary of the grant date, generally subject to the NEO's continuous service until such vesting date.

The exercise price for the shares underlying such stock option awards is equal to the closing price of our Class A common stock on Nasdaq as of the grant date. Upon exercise of a stock option award, payouts will be made in shares. Before a stock option award vests and is exercised, the holder has no ownership rights in the underlying shares and is not entitled to dividends or dividend equivalents.

The table below sets forth the number of stock options granted to our NEOs in FY25:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Name** | **Number of <br>Stock Options<br>(FY25)<br>(# shares)** | **Grant Date Fair Value <br>of Stock Options<br>(FY25)<br>($)** |

(1)Mr. Boynton was hired as CFO on May 29, 2024 and did not receive a FY25 stock option grant. For more information regarding Mr. Boynton's FY25 compensation, see "New Hire Compensation For Our CFO" below.

(2)Mr. Bennett did not receive a FY25 stock option award.

The grant-date fair value of the stock options is $29.05 per share and is estimated using the Black-Scholes Options Pricing Model.

The target value of the RSUs and the PSUs is based on the 30-day weighted average grant date value per share of $44.69, except for Mr. Boynton which amount is $45.96. The grant-date fair value of the stock options is $29.05 per share and is estimated using the Black-Scholes Options Pricing Model.

**Performance stock units – Previously Granted FY24 PSUs**

In FY24, certain of our NEOs received a grant of FY24 PSUs. 50% of the performance criteria were based on Nextracker's achievement of a revenue goal in FY24 and (ii) 50% of the performance criteria were based on Nextracker's achievement of an adjusted EBITDA goal in FY24. In addition, the FY24 PSUs are subject to a three-year rTSR modifier based on the level of Nextracker's total shareholder return performance against that of our Peer Group, with 0.75x applied for rTSR achievement at the 25<sup>th</sup> percentile, 1.0x applied for achievement at the 50<sup>th</sup> percentile and 1.5x applied for achievement at the 75<sup>th</sup> percentile (with linear interpolation applied).

(1)This is a non-GAAP performance measure. See Appendix A for the definition of adjusted EBITDA (with respect to the adjusted EBITDA performance metric) and a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most comparable GAAP financial measure.

Based on the attainment of the applicable financial metrics (i.e., FY24 revenue and FY24 adjusted EBITDA) described above, the PSUs that were earned at the end of FY24 are eligible to vest at the end of three-year performance period in 2026, subject to satisfaction of the service requirement described above, and subject to further modification between 75%-150% based on the level of achievement of the three-year rTSR modifier, described above and which will be reviewed at the end of FY25.

**Performance stock units – Previously Granted FY23 PSUs** 

In FY23, certain of our NEOs, received a grant of FY23 PSUs which provided for three distinct measurement periods over a three-year performance period with (i) 30% of the total target PSUs relating to the first measurement period (April 1, 2022 – March 31, 2023), (ii) 30% of the total target PSUs relating to the second measurement period (April 1, 2023 – March 31, 2024), and (iii) 40% of the total target PSUs relating to the third measurement period (for the financial metrics, April 1, 2024 – March 31, 2025 and for the rTSR metric, April 1, 2023 - March 31, 2025). In FY23, the Company achieved performance at 159.8% of target, and therefore the first tranche of the FY23 PSUs were earned at 159.8% of target. In FY24, the Company achieved performance at 200% of target, and therefore the second tranche of the FY23 PSUs were earned at 200% of target.

With respect to the third tranche, (i) 50% of the performance criteria were based on the financial metrics of our annual STIP during and (ii) 50% of the performance criteria relate to the percentile rank of our rTSR relative to the companies that generally comprised the MAC Global Solar Energy Stock Index (https://macsolarindex.com/stocks-in-the-index) as of April 1, 2023 over FY24 and FY25. As a result, an aggregate performance achievement of 189% applied with respect to the third tranche period relative to target performance.

**New Hire Compensation for Our CFO**

Mr. Boynton, who previously served as the Chair of our Audit Committee, was appointed as our CFO on May 29, 2024. In connection with his appointment, we entered into an offer letter with him setting forth the terms of his compensation in this role. The terms of Mr. Boynton's compensation were approved by the C&P Committee after reviewing a market survey conducted by Meridian.

Under the terms of the offer letter, Mr. Boynton's annual base salary was set at $600,000, and included his eligibility for an annual cash bonus with a target bonus opportunity equal to 90% of his base salary, as indicated above under "-Base Salary" and "-Short-Term Incentive Plan," respectively.

In addition, the C&P Committee approved equity grants under the Company's Long-Term Incentive Plan to Mr. Boynton to align his FY25 compensation with those of other similarly situated executives. These grants include the grant of 50% PSUs and 50% RSUs with an aggregate target grant-date value of $6,000,000 subject to the same vesting terms and same performance conditions as the respective forms of awards granted to NEOs and described above under "-Long-Term Incentive Plan." Mr. Boynton did not receive a FY25 stock option award, as the C&P Committee felt the sign-on awards plus LTIP RSU and PSU were sufficient.

Recognizing Mr. Boynton was an employed CFO, the C&P Committee understood that it would need to address foregone compensation opportunities at his prior employer. As such, two one-time sign-on awards for Mr. Boynton were approved: (i) a one-time sign-on cash award of $2,000,000, which is subject to repayment (in whole or in part) in the event Mr. Boynton is terminated for gross misconduct or he voluntarily resigns prior to the 24-month anniversary of his start date; and (ii) a one-time sign-on award of time-based RSUs under the Equity Plan with a target grant date value of $6,500,000 that vest in equal annual installments over three years. While the C&P Committee recognized that the FY25 total compensation for Mr. Boynton (including these one-time awards) were above the median CFO pay, the purpose of these awards was to compensate Mr. Boynton for the foregone compensation opportunities in the form of the forfeiture of outstanding unvested equity awards in connection with leaving his prior employer. Mr. Boynton's future compensation opportunities, including those for FY26, will be consistent with that of other NEOs.

**Compensation Change for Our CAO (prior CFO)**

In connection with the appointment of Mr. Boynton as our CFO on May 29, 2024, Mr. Bennett, who had served as our CFO from June 2021 through Mr. Boynton's appointment, was appointed as our Chief Accounting Officer. In connection with this change, Mr. Bennett's compensation for FY25 was revised to be commensurate with his new role and responsibilities. Accordingly, Mr. Bennett received a reduced number of FY25 RSUs and PSUs (as compared with FY24 and did not receive a stock option grant for FY25. No severance benefits were paid out to Mr. Bennett as a result of the change in his role.

**Deferred compensation awards** 

Prior to FY24, certain of our NEOs participated in Flex's 2010 Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Flex 2010 Deferred Plan"), under which such NEOs were permitted to make deferrals of base salary and bonus amounts under the Flex 2010 Deferred Plan's voluntary contribution component. Such NEOs ceased to actively participate in the Flex 2010 Deferred Plan at the end of calendar year 2022, although their accounts remain eligible to vest.

During FY24, Nextracker established the Nextracker Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (the "NXT Deferred Compensation Plan"), a "frozen" inactive deferred compensation program, under which we honor the accruals under the Flex 2010 Deferred Plan, and the NEOs have permanently ceased to participate in the Flex 2010 Deferred Plan. Any account balances that were held in the Flex 2010 Deferred Plan were transferred to the NXT Deferred Compensation Plan in connection with the spin-off. No new employer or employee contributions were made during FY24 or will be made in the future to the NXT Deferred Compensation Plan.

**Executive perquisites** 

We provide our NEOs with limited perquisites and other personal benefits that the C&P Committee believes are reasonable and consistent with our overall compensation program to better attract and retain superior employees for key positions. The C&P Committee periodically reviews the levels of perquisites and other personal benefits provided to our NEOs. These benefits are quantified under the "All Other Compensation" column in the Summary Compensation Table.

**401(k) Plan** 

In March 2023, Nextracker's 401(k) Plan (the "401(k) Plan") was established, at which time our employees (subject to our 401(k) Plan's eligibility requirements) began participating in our 401(k) Plan and ceased further participation in Flex's 401(k) plan. Our 401(k) Plan provides for regular matching contributions and discretionary matching contributions. For FY25, the amount of the matching 401(k) Plan contributions made by us to our NEOs are quantified under the "All Other Compensation" column in the Summary Compensation Table.

**Benefits Programs**

In January 2024 we established a Nextracker welfare benefits program for our employees, at which time our employees, including our NEOs, began participating in such program (subject to such program's eligibility requirements). These benefits included medical, dental, vision, group life, basic disability and accidental death and dismemberment insurance benefits.

**Termination and change in control arrangements** 

On November 19, 2024, our Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the C&P Committee, approved an executive severance plan (the "Executive Severance Plan") and an executive change in control severance plan (the "Executive Change in Control Severance Plan") for the benefit of employees of the Company at the level of executive vice president or above, which includes each of our NEOs. These plans were developed in consultation with Meridian to align with the predominate peer practices.

Under the Executive Severance Plan, in the event of the executive's termination of employment by the Company without "cause" or the executive's resignation for "good reason" (as such terms are defined in the Executive Severance Plan) that occurs other than in connection with a change in control of the Company, the executive will be eligible to receive the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a cash severance payment equal to one (1) times (or, in the case of the CEO, two (2) times) the sum of the executive's base salary and target bonus;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a pro-rated target bonus for the fiscal year in which the termination date occurs, less any bonus previously paid;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any earned but unpaid annual bonus for prior years;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any unvested equity awards subject only to service-based vesting conditions will accelerate and become vested to the extent such awards were scheduled to vest within 12 months (or, in the case of the CEO, 18 months) following the executive's termination of employment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any unvested equity awards subject to performance-based vesting conditions (x) shall be deemed to have achieved the performance goals at the target performance level and (y) will accelerate and become vested to the extent such awards were scheduled to vest (as to service) within 12 months (or, in the case of the CEO, 18 months) following the executive's termination of employment (with such acceleration to be made on a pro-rata basis based on the period during the applicable service-vesting period that the executive was actually employed prior to his or her termination date);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• continuation of benefits under COBRA for one (1) year (or, in the case of the CEO, two (2) years) following the executive's termination date; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• outplacement services up to $15,000 (or, in the case of the CEO, $20,000).

Under the Executive Change in Control Severance Plan, in the event of the executive's termination of employment (x) by the Company without "cause", (y) the executive's resignation for "good reason" or (z) executive's death or disability (as such terms are defined in the Executive Change in Control Severance Plan), in each case during the period that begins six (6) months before the date of a change in control and ending twenty four (24) months following the date of a change in control, the executive will be eligible to receive the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a cash severance payment equal to two (2) times the sum of (i) the executive's base salary and (ii) the greater of (A) the executive's target bonus or (B) the executive's actual annual bonus earned for the fiscal year in which the termination date occurs, based on the achievement of applicable performance goals through the executive's termination date (such amount described in this clause (B) (the "Highest Annual Bonus");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a pro-rated amount of the executive's Highest Annual Bonus for the fiscal year in which the termination date occurs, less any bonus previously paid;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any earned but unpaid annual bonus for prior years;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any unvested equity awards will be accelerated and become vested, with any performance-based vesting conditions deemed achieved at the greater of target performance levels and the actual performance levels as of the date of the change in control;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• continuation of benefits under COBRA for two (2) years following the executive's termination date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an amount equal to the total amount the executive would have received under the Company's 401(k) plan as a Company "matching" contribution (assuming maximum employee contributions) for a period of two (2) years following the termination date; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• outplacement services up to $15,000 (or, in the case of the CEO, $20,000).

For information regarding these plans and the potential benefits applicable to our NEOs under these plans in connection with a change in control and/or termination of employment, [see page](#i67ecfcbfd4fa45c7b5c7b94dfafc46ee_813)[58](#i67ecfcbfd4fa45c7b5c7b94dfafc46ee_813).

**Other Compensation Governance Practices** 

**Key Compensation and Governance Policies** 

The following table summarizes the key compensation and governance polices applicable to our NEOs:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Policy** | **Overview** | **Material Features** |
| **Stock Ownership Guidelines** | Promote stock ownership in Nextracker.<br>More closely align the interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders. | 5x base salary for CEO and President.<br>2x base salary for other Executive Officers.<br>5 years from executive officer designation to comply.<br>Includes shares owned outright (including unvested RSUs), excludes stock options and unvested PSUs.<br>As of May 1, 2025, all continuing NEOs have reached ownership requirements or have remaining time to do so. |
| **Insider Trading and Trading Window Policy** | Prohibit corporate insiders from taking advantage of material non-public information. | CEO and other NEOs are required to preclear any open market transactions with the Chief Legal Officer and are encouraged to use Rule 10b5-1 stock trading plans.<br>Prohibits the purchase or sale of securities while in possession of material non-public information. |
| **Clawback Policy** | In 2023, the Board adopted the Company's Financial Restatement Compensation Recoupment Policy (the "Recoupment Clawback Policy"), under which the C&P Committee will, to the extent permitted or required by law, recoup any excess incentive compensation received by executive officers due to a financial restatement within three years of discovering the error, regardless of any detrimental conduct. | In 2023, the Board adopted the Recoupment Clawback Policy in accordance with Rule 10D-1. Under the Company's Recoupment Clawback Policy, our C&P Committee will, to the extent permitted by law, recoup any incentive compensation (cash and equity) received by the Company's executive officers in the event of a restatement of financial-based measures (regardless of whether detrimental conduct has occurred). In the case of a restatement of financial-based measures, the Board will reasonably and promptly recover the amount by which the incentive compensation received exceeds the amount that would have been received if the error had not been made within the three years preceding the date on which the Board determines that the financial measure contains a material error. |
| **Hedging and Pledging** | Prohibited under the Insider Trading and Trading Window Policy | Under the Company's Insider Trading and Trading Window Policy, all employees are prohibited from engaging in derivative or hedging transactions in Nextracker securities. |

---

**Compensation Risk Determination** 

Our C&P Committee assesses the potential risks relating to our compensation policies and practices for our employees, including those related to our executive compensation programs. Periodically, our C&P Committee reviews and discusses with management the relationship between Nextracker's compensation policies and practices and its risk management, including the extent to which those policies and practices create risks for Nextracker, to ensure that such policies and practices support not only economic performance, but also compliance with our risk management objectives, and to ensure that they do not encourage excessive or unnecessary risk-taking and are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Nextracker. For our FY25 compensation programs, our C&P Committee determined that its compensation policies and practices appropriately comply with Nextracker's risk management objectives and do not encourage excessive or unnecessary risk-taking.

***Equity Grant Practices***

We have the following practices regarding equity compensation grants:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The C&P Committee and/or our Board typically grant annual equity incentive awards to our NEOs during the first quarter of our fiscal year, at such time as the C&P Committee evaluates the compensation for its NEOs for the applicable fiscal year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We do not strategically time long-term incentive awards in coordination with the release of material non-public information ("MNPI") and have a policy never to do so.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We have never timed and do not plan to time the release of MNPI for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Equity award accounting complies with GAAP in the United States and is transparently disclosed in our SEC filings. Share amounts for our RSUs and PSUs are based on a 30-day trailing average from the date of grant.

During FY25, the C&P Committee awarded stock options to our NEOs in the period beginning four business days before our filing of a periodic report on Form 10-K or Form 10-Q or the filing or furnishing of a current report on Form 8-K that disclosed MNPI, and ending one business day after the filing or furnishing of such report (the "Designated Periods"). As required by Item 402(x) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act, we are providing the following information relating to stock options awarded to NEOs in the Designated Periods occurring during FY25.

(1)Mr. Boynton was hired as CFO on May 29, 2024 and did not receive a FY25 stock option grant. For more information regarding Mr. Boynton's FY25 compensation, see "New Hire Compensation for Our CFO" above.

(2)Mr. Bennett did not receive a FY25 stock option award.

The grant-date fair value of the stock options is $29.05 per share and is estimated using the Black-Scholes Options Pricing Model.

**Tax Considerations of Our Executive Compensation** 

Section 162(m) of the Code generally limits the tax deductibility of annual compensation paid by public companies for certain executive officers to $1 million.

In the exercise of its business judgment, and in accordance with its compensation philosophy, the C&P Committee and the Board continue to have flexibility to award compensation that is not tax deductible if it determines that such award is in our stockholders' best interests, is necessary to comply with contractual commitments, or to maintain flexibility needed to attract talent, promote retention or recognize and reward desired performance.

**Accounting for Our Stock-Based Compensation** 

We account for stock-based payments, including grants under each of our equity compensation plans in accordance with the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 718.

(1)Includes amounts contributed under the Flex 2010 Deferred Plan and relevant 401(k) plan accounts.

(2)The amount in FY25 for Mr. Boynton includes a one-time sign-on cash award, which is subject to repayment (in whole or in part) in the event Mr. Boynton is terminated for gross misconduct or he voluntarily resigns prior to the 24-month anniversary of his start date.

(3)For FY25, share awards consist of RSUs and PSUs granted under the LTIP during such fiscal year. The amounts in this column do not reflect compensation actually received by our NEOs, nor do they reflect the actual value that will be realized by our NEOs. Instead, the amounts reflect the grant date fair value as determined by a nationally recognized third-party valuation firm in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 (excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures). The fair value of such PSUs was based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The grant date value of the PSUs granted to the NEOs in FY25, assuming the maximum level of performance conditions will be achieved, is $7,827,358 for Mr. Shugar, $3,913,679 for Mr. Boynton, $978,390 for Mr. Bennett, $2,609,100 for Mr. Ledesma, $2,446,035 for Mr. Miller and $3,913,679 for Mr. Wenger. The amounts for Mr. Boynton also include a one-time sign-on award of time-based RSUs with a grant-date fair value of $6,499,985 that vest in equal annual installments over three years. For additional information regarding the assumptions made in calculating the amounts reflected in this column in respect of the RSUs and PSUs, see Note 7 in the notes to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025.

(4)For FY25, stock option awards consist of stock options granted under the LTIP during such fiscal year. The amounts in this column do not reflect compensation actually received by our NEOs, nor do they reflect the actual value that will be realized by our NEOs. Instead, the amounts reflect the grant date fair value as determined by a nationally recognized third-party valuation firm in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 and using Black-Scholes (excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures).

For additional information, see the section titled "Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Compensation-Setting Process and FY25 Executive Compensation—Stock Option awards - FY25" of this Proxy Statement.

(5)The amounts in this column represent incentive cash bonuses earned by our NEOs for the relevant year. For additional information, see the section titled "Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Compensation-Setting Process and FY25 Executive Compensation—Short-Term Incentive Plan" of this Proxy Statement.

(6)The amounts in this column represent the above-market earnings on the Flex 2010 Deferred Plan accounts for certain of our NEOs. None of our NEOs participated in any defined benefit or actuarial pension plans in any period presented. In our Form S-1 registration statement filed on February 6, 2023 relating to our IPO, the Company reported above-market earnings in the "Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings" column on the portion of the deferred compensation accounts that were vested during the year rather than reporting such earnings on the entire vested and unvested deferred compensation accounts. In accordance with SEC disclosure rules, the "Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings" column for FY23 has been updated as follows to reflect the above-market earnings with respect to the deferred compensation accounts during FY23, regardless of whether such amounts were vested or unvested. No NEO received above market or preferential earnings from the Flex 2010 Deferred Plan in FY24 and FY25.

(7)The following table provides a breakdown of compensation included in the "All Other Compensation" column for FY25:

(1)These amounts show the range of possible payouts under the cash incentive programs for FY25. The maximum payment represents 200% of the target payment. The threshold payment represents 50% of target payout levels. For the short-term incentive bonus plan, the amounts actually earned for FY25 are reported as Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation in the Summary Compensation Table. For additional information, see the section titled "Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Compensation-Setting Process and FY25 Executive Compensation—Short-Term Incentive Plan" of this Proxy Statement.

(2)These amounts show the range of estimated future vesting of the PSU awards granted in FY25 under the LTIP. With respect to the PSUs granted in FY25, (i) 50% of the performance criteria are based on Nextracker's achievement of a FY25 revenue goal and (ii) 50% of the performance criteria are based on Nextracker's achievement of a FY25 adjusted EPS goal. The PSUs are subject to a three-year rTSR modifier based on the level of Nextracker's total shareholder return performance against that of our executive compensation peer group, with 0.75x applied for rTSR achievement at the 25th percentile or below, 1.0x applied for achievement at the 50th percentile and 1.5x applied for achievement at the 75th percentile or above (with linear interpolation applied). The financial metrics can each be earned between 0% and 200% of target and the rTSR modifier can adjust the payout levels under the financial component from 75% to 150% (for a maximum total payout of 300% of target). For additional information, see the section titled "Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Compensation-Setting Process and FY25 Executive Compensation—Long-Term Incentive Plan" of this Proxy Statement.

(3)The amounts present the number of one-time service-based RSU awards granted in FY25 under the LTIP. For each NEO, the RSUs vest in three annual installments at the rate of 30%, 30% and 40%, respectively, provided that the NEO continues to remain employed on the applicable vesting date. For additional information, see the section titled "Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Compensation-Setting Process and FY25 Executive Compensation—Long-Term Incentive Plan" of this Proxy Statement.

(4)The amounts present the number of one-time service-based RSU awards granted in FY25 pursuant to Mr. Boynton's offer letter. The RSUs will vest in three annual installments at the rate of 33%, 33% and 34%, respectively, provided that Mr. Boynton continues to remain employed on the applicable vesting date.

(5)This column shows the number of stock option shares granted pursuant to stock option awards in FY25 under the LTIP. For each NEO, the stock option cliff vests after three years, provided that the NEO continues to remain employed on the vesting dates. For additional information, see the section titled "Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Compensation-Setting Process and FY25 Executive Compensation—Long-Term Incentive Plan" of this Proxy Statement. The exercise price of the option listed is the closing price of the Company's Class A common stock on Nasdaq on the date of the grant.

(6)This column shows the grant date fair value of RSU, PSU and stock option awards under the LTIP under FASB ASC Topic 718 granted to our NEOs in FY25. The grant date fair value is the amount that will be expensed in Nextracker's financial statements over the awards' vesting schedule. For RSUs, the grant date fair value reflects the determination by a nationally recognized third-party valuation firm in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 as of the grant date. For PSUs, the grant date fair value is based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions as of the grant date, consistent with the estimate of aggregate compensation cost to be recognized over the service period determined as of the grant date under FASB ASC Subtopic 718-10. For stock options, the grant-date fair value is estimated using the Black-Scholes Options Pricing Model. The grant date fair values reflected in this column may differ from the approved values reflected in the CD&A because of the accounting methodology used to report the amounts in this column, as required by SEC rules. For additional information regarding the assumptions made in calculating the amounts reflected in this column in respect of the RSU, PSU and stock option awards, see Note 7 in the notes to our consolidated financial statements, "Stock-based compensation," included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025.

**Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control** 

As described in the section titled "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" of this Proxy Statement, our NEOs do not have employment agreements with us.

On November 19, 2024, our Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the C&P Committee, approved the Executive Severance Plan and the Executive Change in Control Severance Plan for the benefit of employees of the Company at the level of executive vice president or above, including our NEOs.

Under the Executive Severance Plan, in the event of the executive's termination of employment by the Company without "cause" or the executive's resignation for "good reason" (as such terms are defined in the Executive Severance Plan) that occurs other than in connection with a change in control of the Company, the executive will be eligible to receive the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a cash severance payment equal to one (1) times (or, in the case of the CEO, two (2) times) the sum of the executive's base salary and target bonus;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a pro-rated target bonus for the fiscal year in which the termination date occurs, less any bonus previously paid;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any earned but unpaid annual bonus for prior years;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any unvested equity awards subject only to service-based vesting conditions will accelerate and become vested to the extent such awards were scheduled to vest within 12 months (or, in the case of the CEO, 18 months) following the executive's termination of employment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any unvested equity awards subject to performance-based vesting conditions (x) shall be deemed to have achieved the performance goals at the target performance level and (y) will accelerate and become vested to the extent such awards were scheduled to vest (as to service) within 12 months (or, in the case of the CEO, 18 months) following the executive's termination of employment (with such acceleration to be made on a pro-rata basis determined based on the period during the applicable service-vesting period that the executive was actually employed prior to his or her termination date);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• continuation of benefits under COBRA for one (1) year (or, in the case of the CEO, two (2) years) following the executive's termination date; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• outplacement services up to $15,000 (or, in the case of the CEO, $20,000).

Under the Executive Change in Control Severance Plan, in the event of the executive's termination of employment (x) by the Company without "cause", (y) the executive's resignation for "good reason" or (z) executive's death or disability (as such terms are defined in the Executive Change in Control Severance Plan), in each case during the period that begins six (6) months before the date of a change in control and ending twenty four (24) months following the date of a change in control, the executive will be eligible to receive the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a cash severance payment equal to two (2) times the sum of (i) the executive's base salary and (ii) the greater of (A) the executive's target bonus or (B) the executive's Highest Annual Bonus;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a pro-rated amount of the executive's Highest Annual Bonus for the fiscal year in which the termination date occurs, less any bonus previously paid;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any earned but unpaid annual bonus for prior years;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any unvested equity awards will be accelerated and become vested, with any performance-based vesting conditions deemed achieved at the greater of target performance levels and the actual performance levels as of the date of the change in control;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• continuation of benefits under COBRA for two (2) years following the executive's termination date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an amount equal to the total amount the executive would have received under the Company's 401(k) plan as a Company "matching" contribution (assuming maximum employee contributions) for a period of two (2) years following the termination date; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• outplacement services up to $15,000 (or, in the case of the CEO, $20,000).

The following table and accompanying notes show the estimated payments and benefits that would have been provided to each NEO under Nextracker's compensation and benefit plans in the event of a change in control or upon a qualifying termination of employment (i.e., involuntary termination without cause or resignation for good reason) or the applicable NEO's death or disability. It is assumed for purposes of the following table that the LTIP is not assumed by the successor company in connection with the change in control. Additionally, calculations for the applicable tables further assume that the triggering event took place on March 31, 2025, the last business day of Nextracker's FY25, and are based on the closing price per share of Nextracker's Class A Common Stock on March 31, 2025, which was $42.14. All unearned performance awards are reflected at the target level of performance.

(6)Reflects "Net Income" in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income included in the Company's Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2023, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025, respectively.

(7)The following table sets forth an unranked list of the financial performance measures that we view as the "most important" measures for linking our NEOs' compensation to performance. For more information on the financial performance metrics that are listed below and how they are utilized in our compensation program, please see "Compensation Discussion and Analysis".

| **Performance Measures** |
| **Revenue**<sup>\*</sup> |
| **Adjusted EBITDA**<sup>\*</sup> |
| **Adjusted diluted EPS** |
| **Adjusted free cash flow**<sup>\*</sup> |

\* &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Adjusted EBITDA," "Adjusted diluted EPS" and "adjusted free cash flow" are non-GAAP metrics. See Appendix A of this Proxy Statement for definitions of adjusted EBITDA (with respect to the adjusted EBITDA performance metric), adjusted diluted EPS (with respect to the adjusted diluted EPS performance metric) and adjusted free cash flow (with respect to the adjusted free cash flow performance metric) and a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures.

From the above list of performance measures, we view Revenue as our most important financial performance measure used to link compensation actually paid to our PEOs and other NEOs to Company performance for FY24. Revenue is a key component of the Company's long-term incentive program, and is a performance measure over which our NEOs can have significant impact. In addition, Revenue is directly linked to the Company's long-term strategic growth plan and performance that drive stockholder value and is highly correlated with fluctuations in our stock price.

As for the other performance measures listed in the table above, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted free cash flow are equally weighted metrics in our long-term performance-based incentive compensation program for FY25, which was a key component of our NEOs' pay in FY25.

(8)Represents the Revenue of the Company, as measured by the Company in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

**Relationship Between Financial Measures and Compensation Actually Paid** 

The SEC's rules require that the pay versus performance disclosure include an unranked list of three to seven performance measures that the Company considers to be its most important measures used to align CAP to the NEOs to a company's performance. The table above represents the unranked list of the "most important" financial measures the Company used to align CAP to our NEOs for FY25 to the Company's performance.

For additional information regarding how the above listed performance measures were utilized as part of our executive compensation program in FY25, see "Compensation Discussion and Analysis."

CEO Pay Ratio

As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Act, and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K (collectively, the "Pay Ratio Rule"), we are providing information about the relationship of the total annual compensation of Mr. Shugar, our CEO, to the total annual compensation of our median employee. The Company believes that the pay ratio included below is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.

As of March 31, 2025, our last completed fiscal year:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We have estimated that the total annual compensation of our median employee (other than our CEO) was $69,530; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The total annual compensation of our CEO, as reported in the Summary Compensation Table, was $20,097,412.

Based on this information, for FY25, the ratio of the total annual compensation for Mr. Shugar, our CEO, to the total annual compensation of our median employee was 289 to 1.

**Methodology for Identifying Our Median Employee** 

**Employee Population**

To identify the median of the annual total compensation of all of our employees (other than our CEO), we first identified our total employee population from which we determined our median employee. We determined that, as of March 31, 2025, our employee population consisted of approximately 1,109 full-time employees (of which approximately 44% were located in the United States and 56% were located in India and other international offices).

**Determining our Median Employee**

To identify our median employee from our employee population, we compared the amount of base salary of our employees as reflected in our employee records and converted to U.S. Dollars. In making this determination, we utilized the annualized compensation of our full-time employees, including those who were hired in FY25 (but did not work for us for the entire fiscal year) and permanent part-time employees (reflecting what they would have earned if they had worked the entire year at their part-time schedule). We identified our median employee using this compensation measure, which was consistently applied to all our employees included in the calculation.

**Determination of Annual Total Compensation of our Median Employee and our CEO**

Once we identified our median employee, we then calculated such employee's annual total compensation for FY25 by using the same methodology we used for purposes of determining the annual total compensation of our NEOs for FY25 as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table [on](#i67ecfcbfd4fa45c7b5c7b94dfafc46ee_777)[page](#i67ecfcbfd4fa45c7b5c7b94dfafc46ee_777)[52](#i67ecfcbfd4fa45c7b5c7b94dfafc46ee_777).

Our CEO's annual total compensation for FY25 for purposes of the Pay Ratio Rule is equal to the amount reported in the "Total" column in the Summary Compensation Table.

Please note that SEC rules for identifying the median employee and calculating the pay ratio allow companies to apply various methodologies and apply various assumptions and, as result, the pay ratio reported by us may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported by other companies.

Our directors are entitled to the protection provided by the indemnification provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation. We have also entered into customary indemnification agreements with each of our directors. Our Board may revise the compensation arrangements for our directors from time to time.

In connection with their services during FY25, each of Julie Blunden, Jeffrey Guldner, Willy Shih, Brandi Thomas and William Watkins received awards of RSUs. The number of such RSUs granted for each of Ms. Blunden, Mr. Guldner, Mr. Shih, Ms. Thomas and Mr. Watkins totaled 3,723, 4,196, 3,723, 3,723 and 4,965, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• each person or group who is known by us to beneficially own 5% or more of our outstanding shares of our Class A common stock (including any securities convertible or exchangeable within 60 days into Class A common stock, as applicable);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• each of our current NEOs and directors individually; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• all of our current executive officers and directors as a group.

We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC.

Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions

We describe below transactions and series of similar transactions, since the beginning of our last fiscal year or currently proposed, to which we were a party or will be a party, in which:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the amounts involved exceed $120,000; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any of our directors, executive officers or beneficial holders of more than 5% of any class of our capital stock had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Other than as described below, there have not been, nor are there any currently proposed, transactions or series of similar transactions meeting these criteria to which we have been or will be a party other than compensation arrangements, which are described where required under the section titled "Compensation Discussion and Analysis." The following discussion reflects our relationships and related party transactions; some of these transactions were entered into prior to adoption of our related party transaction policy, and as such, were not subject to the approval and review procedures set forth in the current policy but were nonetheless subject to the approval and review procedures in effect at the applicable times.

**Executive Officer and Director Compensation Arrangements** 

See "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" for information regarding compensation arrangements with our executive officers and directors, which include, among other things, employment, termination of employment and change in control arrangements, stock awards, stock options and certain other benefits.

**Director and Executive Officer Indemnification** 

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides for indemnification for directors and certain officers to the fullest extent permitted by law. We previously entered into indemnification agreements with each director and executive officer and certain other officers. Such agreements provide, among other things, our officers and directors with contractual rights to indemnification, expense advancement and reimbursement, to the fullest extent permitted by law, including to the extent they serve at our request as directors, officers, employees or other agents at another corporation or enterprise, as the case may be, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

**Policies and Procedures for Related Party Transactions** 

Our Board has adopted a written related person transaction policy that sets forth the following policies and procedures for the review and approval or ratification of related person transactions. A "related person transaction" is a transaction, arrangement or relationship in which we or any of our subsidiaries was, is or will be a participant, the amount of which involved exceeds $120,000, and in which any related person had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. A "related person" means:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any person who is or was since the beginning of the last fiscal year for which the Company has filed an Annual Report on Form 10-K and proxy statement an executive officer or director of the Company or a nominee for director of the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a beneficial owner of 5% or more of any class of voting securities of the Company; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any immediate family member of any of the foregoing persons, which means any child, stepchild, parent, stepparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law or any person (other than a tenant or employee) sharing the household of such director, executive officer or beneficial owner of more than 5% of our voting stock.

We have policies and procedures designed to minimize potential conflicts of interest arising from any dealings we may have with our affiliates and to provide appropriate procedures for the disclosure of any actual or potential conflicts of interest that may exist from time to time. Specifically, pursuant to our Audit Committee charter, our Audit Committee has the responsibility to review related person transactions.

Householding of Proxy Materials; Availability of Annual Report

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for Proxy Availability Notice or other proxy materials with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single Proxy Availability Notice or other proxy materials addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as householding, potentially provides extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to be able to access and receive separate proxy cards.

This year, a number of brokers with account holders who are our stockholders will be "householding" our proxy materials. A Proxy Availability Notice or proxy materials will be delivered in one single envelope to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from one or more of the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be householding communications to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate Proxy Availability Notice or proxy materials, please notify your broker, bank or other institution where you hold your shares.

Appendix A:

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This Proxy Statement includes the following non-GAAP financial measures, which should be viewed as an addition to, and not a substitute for or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

**Measures**

This Proxy Statement contains information regarding financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted diluted EPS. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our FY25 performance in relation to the principal elements of our annual executive compensation program considered by the C&P Committee, as described in the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" section of this Proxy Statement.

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus (i) interest, net, (ii) provision for income taxes, (iii) depreciation expense, (iv) intangible amortization, (v) stock-based compensation expense, (vi) various non-recurring tax adjustments and (vii) certain nonrecurring legal costs, integration activities related to acquisitions and other discrete events as applicable. For FY24, we also omit the benefits from the recognition of the Advanced Manufacturing Tax Credits that reduced cost of sales (as further described in Note 2 in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024) from adjusted EBITDA. We define adjusted free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less cash used for purchases of property and equipment plus proceeds from the disposition of property and equipment, and other financing. We define adjusted diluted EPS as adjusted net income divided by diluted weighted average common stock outstanding.

However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP.

Among other limitations, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted diluted EPS do not reflect our cash expenditures or future capital expenditures or contractual commitments (including under the Tax Receivable Agreement), do not reflect the impact of certain cash or non-cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations and do not reflect the associated income tax expense or benefit related to those charges. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate adjusted EBITDA, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted diluted EPS differently from us, which further limits their usefulness as comparative measures.

We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using non-GAAP financial measures on a supplemental basis. You should review the reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted diluted EPS below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

(1)Represents additional charges incurred in relation to a litigation matter. The net settlement and direct legal costs in aggregate are excluded from our Adjusted net income. Based on historical experience we do not believe that the settlement and associated charges are normal, recurring operating expenses indicative of our core operating performance, nor were these charges taken into account as factors in evaluating management's performance when determining incentive compensation or to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies.

(2)Represents transaction and integration costs incurred in relation to our acquisitions of Ojjo, Inc. and the foundations business of Solar Pile International. We do not believe that the acquisition transaction costs are normal, recurring operating expenses indicative of our core operating performance, nor were these charges taken into account as factors in evaluating management's performance when determining incentive compensation or to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies.

(3)Vendor credits as defined under the section "Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 Vendor Rebates" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025. We believe that the assessment of our operations excluding the benefit from the vendor credits provides a more consistent comparison of our performance given the cumulative nature of the amount recorded in the fiscal year. These vendor rebates were not taken into account as factors in evaluating management's performance when determining incentive compensation or to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies. However, starting in fiscal year 2025, vendor rebates are taken into account to evaluate management's performance.
