Earnings Per Share Growth Rate Sample Clauses

Earnings Per Share Growth Rate. “Earnings Per Share Growth Rate” for the Performance Period is the compounded annual-growth rate (CAGR) of a company’s earnings per share from continuing operations, on a fully diluted basis, during the Performance Period; provided, however, that for purposes of calculating the Company’s Earnings Per Share Growth Rate, SunCor Development Company’s earnings from discontinued operations will be considered earnings from continuing operations for each fiscal year during the Performance Period. Only those companies which were in the Index at both the beginning and the ending of the Performance Period will be considered. The Earnings Per Share Growth Rate of the companies in the Index will be determined using an independent third party data system. If the Index is discontinued, the Committee shall select the most comparable index then in use for the sector comparison. In addition, if the sector comparison is no longer representative of the Company’s industry or business, the Committee shall replace the Index with the most representative index then in use. Once the CAGR of the Company and all relevant companies in the Index have been determined, the member companies will be ranked from greatest to least CAGR. Percentiles will be calculated based on a company’s relative ranking. For example, company 1 out of 26 companies is given a percentile of 96.2% (1.0 – 1/26). Percentiles will be carried out to one (1) decimal place. If the Company is not in the Index, then its percentile will be interpolated between the companies listed in the relative ranking. These calculations will be verified by the Company’s internal auditors.

Earnings Per Share Growth Rate. Earnings Per Share Growth Rate" for the Performance Period is the compounded annual-growth rate (CAGR) of a company's earnings per share from continuing operations, on a fully diluted basis, during the Performance Period; provided, however, that for purposes of calculating the Company's Earnings Per Share Growth Rate, SunCor Development Company's earnings from discontinued operations will be considered earnings from continuing operations for each fiscal year during the Performance Period. Only those companies which were in the S&P Electric Utility Index at both the beginning and the ending of the Performance Period will be considered. The Earnings Per Share Growth Rate of the companies in the S&P Electric Utilities Index will be determined using the S&P Compustat system. If the S&P Compustat system is no longer in use, the Committee shall replace it with the most comparable third party data system then in use. If the S&P Electric Utilities Index is discontinued, the S&P comparable replacement index for the sector will be used for computing Earnings Per Share Growth Rate. If S&P no longer computes an index for the electric utility sector, the Committee shall select the most comparable index then in use for the sector comparison. In addition, if the sector comparison is no longer representative of the Company's industry or business, the Committee shall replace the index with the most representative index then in use. Once the CAGR of the Company and all relevant companies in the S&P Electric Utility Index have been determined, the member companies will be ranked from greatest to least CAGR. Percentiles will be calculated based on a company's relative ranking. For example, company 1 out of 26 companies is given a percentile of 96.2% (1.0 - 1/26). Percentiles will be carried out to one (1) decimal place. If the Company is not in the S&P Electric Utility Index, then its percentile will be interpolated between the companies listed in the relative ranking.

  • Performance Metrics The “Performance Metrics” for the Performance Period are: (i) the JD Power Residential National Large Segment Survey for investor-owned utilities; (ii) the System Average Interruption Frequency Index (Major Events Excluded) (“XXXXX”); (iii) Arizona Public Service Company’s customer to employee improvement ratio; (iv) the OSHA rate (All Incident Injury Rate); (v) nuclear capacity factor; and (vi) coal capacity factor. (1) With respect to the Performance Metric described in clause (i) of this Subsection 6(a), the JD Power Residential National Large Segment Survey will provide data on an annual basis reflecting the Company’s percentile ranking, relative to other participating companies. (2) With respect to the Performance Metric described in clause (ii) of this Subsection 6(a), the Edison Electric Institute (“EEI”) will provide data on an annual basis regarding the XXXXX result of the participating companies; the Company will calculate its XXXXX result for the year in question and determine its percentile ranking based on the information provided by EEI. (3) With respect to the Performance Metric described in clause (iii) of this Subsection 6(a), SNL, an independent third party data system, will provide data on an annual basis regarding the customer and employee counts; the Company will use its customer and employee counts for the year in question and determine its percentile ranking based on the information provided by SNL. Only those companies whose customers and employees were included in the data provided by SNL in each of the years of the Performance Period will be considered. (4) With respect to the Performance Metric described in clause (iv) of this Subsection 6(a), EEI will provide data on an annual basis regarding the OSHA rate of the participating companies; the Company will calculate its OSHA rate for the year in question and determine its percentile ranking based on the information provided by EEI. (5) With respect to the Performance Metric described in clause (v) of this Subsection 6(a), SNL will provide data on an annual basis regarding the nuclear capacity factors of the participating nuclear plants; the Company will calculate its nuclear capacity factor for the year in question and determine its percentile ranking based on the information provided by SNL. Only those plants that were included in the data provided by SNL in each of the years of the Performance Period will be considered. (6) With respect to the Performance Metric described in clause (vi) of this Subsection 6(a), SNL will provide data on an annual basis regarding the coal capacity factors of the participating coal plants; the Company will calculate its coal capacity factor for the year in question and determine its percentile ranking based on the information provided by SNL. Only those plants that were included in the data provided by SNL in each of the years of the Performance Period will be considered. (7) The Company’s percentile ranking during the Performance Period for each Performance Metric will be the average of the Company’s percentile ranking for each Performance Metric during each of the three years of the Performance Period (each, an “Average Performance Metric”); provided, however, that if the third year of a Performance Metric is not calculable by December 15 of the following year, the Performance Metric shall consist of the three most recent years for which such Performance Metric is calculable. The Company’s “Average Performance,” for purposes of determining any Base Grant adjustments pursuant to Subsection 5(b) above will be the average of the Average Performance Metrics. If only quartile, rather than percentile, rankings are available for a particular Performance Metric, the Average Performance Metric for any such Performance Metric shall be expressed as a percentile. For example, if the Performance Metric was in the top quartile for two Performance Periods and in the lowest quartile in the other Performance Period, the average of these quartiles would be 3 (the average of 4, 4, and 1) and the Average Performance Metric would be the 75th percentile (3 /4). The calculations in this Subsection 6(a)(7) will be verified by the Company’s internal auditors. (8) If either EEI or SNL discontinues providing the data specified above, the Committee shall select a data source that, in the Committee’s judgment, will provide data most comparable to the data provided by EEI or SNL, as the case may be. If the JD Power Residential National Large Segment Survey for investor-owned utilities (or a successor JD Power survey) is not available during each of the years of the Performance Period, the Performance Metric associated with the JD Power Residential Survey (Subsection 6(a)(1)) will be disregarded and not included in the Company’s Average Performance for purposes of determining any Base Grant adjustments pursuant to Subsection 5(b).
