Executive pay doesn’t always make headlines, yet it can offer a surprisingly clear view of a company’s next move. Host Ben Silverman sits down with Senior Analyst Amy Pessetto to show how changes in long-term incentives, performance metrics, and option grants may reveal where management is really focused. Sometimes before those priorities turn up on an earnings call.

Tickers Discussed: ADT, FSLR, SAM

In this episode, Ben and Amy discuss:

  • Options on the Rise: Why some companies are swapping portions of time-based RSUs for stock options, and what that shift suggests about risk appetite in 2025.
  • First Solar’s Comp Mix: A higher RSU weight and a shorter vesting schedule and what the revised package might mean for solar-sector bulls and bears.
  • New CEO, New Metrics: How Boston Beer rewired its incentive plan around revenue growth after handing the reins to a new chief executive.
  • Reading the Fine Print: Practical tips for spotting sandbagging, de-risking, or strategic pivots hidden inside proxy disclosures.
  • From Data to Decisions: A step-by-step way to fold incentive-comp insights into your research process.

Edited, mixed, and scored by Calvin Marty.
