Dear Stockholders,
2022 marked an exciting milestone for VIZIO: our 20th anniversary. Throughout our history, we have always been focusedLooking back on delivering value to consumers through great products2023, it was another year characterized by strong discipline and experiences at affordable prices. Overexecution. Our results again validate the last year, the VIZIO team did a fantastic job of executing on our strategy, especially against a challenging macroeconomic backdrop of a slowing economy, high interest rates, and geopolitical events. When a consumer brings home onepower of our award-winning VIZIO TVs, they are bringing home the combined power ofintegrated hardware and software that deliversbusiness model, and our products and services continue to resonate with consumers, content partners, and advertisers alike. Through the collective efforts of our teams, we ended the year with a superiorrecord-breaking monthly active user experience. 20 years later,base of 18.5 million and Platform+ net revenue of $598 million. Platform+ net revenue growth of 25% was driven by a 31% increase in advertising revenue with strong trends across time spent streaming and demand for our vision is stronger than ever.home screen inventory.
We are proud ofWhile many faced challenges in the fact thatadvertising marketplace during the year, our ad business fired on all cylinders with tremendous growth from key advertising categories like media and entertainment, insurance and retail to name a few. Additionally, as we have built out our ad sales organization, we continue to maintainexpand our direct relationships with brands and agency partners to help deliver some of the best advertising solutions in Connected TV (CTV). It is through the combination of excellent picture quality and our integrated operating system that we provide an exceptional entertainment and advertising experience for our users and partners. In 2023, we continued to expand our content offering and elevated our profile in the advertising market through greater scale and strong growth in engagement from our active user base. All of this led to share gains of advertising dollars within the rapidly growing CTV ecosystem and a strongrecord SmartCast ARPU of $32.48, up 15% over the past year.
Speaking of investments, a major success of the year was the rollout of a significant software update – making already great VIZIO TVs even better. The update has enabled faster loading of apps and highly liquid balance sheet with no debt, which remains an important advantage in a highly competitive environment. Aschannels, better responsiveness, and improved voice and text search. Moreover, it has enhanced our home screen, completely changing how users explore and stream content. This has helped our content partners to promote their content and retain viewers effectively. At VIZIO, we continue to invest in features and innovation that will further redefine the SmartTV, we willSmart TV and continue to do so in a focused and disciplined manner that balances growth with profitability.
In justrecognition of our efforts to deliver this world-class user experience, we are proud to announce that our company has recently received another Emmy Award for innovation in providing an exceptional user experience through our Smart TVs. With the third year since its launch,right strategy, strong execution, and a disciplined investment framework, our Platform+ businessteam has transformed VIZIO from a hardware company into a proven and powerful CTV player that is generating strong growthreshaping the TV industry.
With that, as many of you know, on February 20th, we announced a definitive agreement for Walmart to acquire VIZIO. Our focus at VIZIO has always been to offer our customers great products at reasonable prices. This customer-centered approach is perfectly in sync with Walmart's core value proposition. We are thrilled to collaborate with Walmart and look forward to delivering even more value and an improved customer experience through our joint efforts. There is a testamentlot to the combined power of ourbe excited about with this acquisition.
Looking back, 10 years ago we decided to pivot away from just selling great hardware and invest in a fully integrated hardware and software capabilities. Despitebusiness model that generates recurring revenue. Although many still recognize us as a challenging environmentgreat hardware company that disrupted the TV market over 20 years ago, we have been a force in our industry that has garnered the attention of companies like Walmart, who truly understand what we have sought to accomplish in the CTV space. As the founder, I am incredibly proud that we disrupted the status quo not once but twice in our history. I am grateful to our team for most advertising platforms,helping make our Platform+ business delivered incredible revenuevision a reality. Looking ahead, we remain excited about the growth of 55%prospects in 2022. During the year, we expanded our client relationships to a total of over 1,400 advertising partners across verticals like automotive, media entertainment, CPG, quick-service restaurants,industry and retail. Building on the successful growth of our WatchFree+ app, we unveiled an upgraded design and improved user interface to enhance our customers’ experience. We also expanded our selection of built-in streaming apps from partners like Starz, AMC+, Fox Sports, TikTok, Sling, Amazon Music and many more. With such a seamless out-of-the box experience, it is no surprise that consumers spend most of their time on our TVs streaming the vast content offerings available on Platform+.
As viewing trends shift and audiences fragment across different services, our first-party automatic content recognition (“ACR”) viewing data has been at the forefront of powering products that deliver a better consumer experience and bring greater transparency and scale to connected TV measurement. Today, we work with leading measurement companies who utilize our data to fuel their ad currency products. With that, I’m pleasedcan't wait to share that VIZIO was recently honored with an Emmy Award for Technology and Engineering around our innovative usemore about the next chapter of ACR technology. It’s extremely rewarding to see our engineering excellence and creativity recognized by dozens of industry experts and peers. It’s clear that our award-winning spirit is changing the TV industry and continues to benefit our partners across advertising, measurement, and content, as well as our millions of users who turn to VIZIO every day for a better TV experience.
I’m incredibly excited to continue to build on all that we’ve accomplished over the past 20 years and capitalize on the significant opportunity that is ahead of VIZIO. With a strong, dedicated, and disciplined team that is focused on innovation, we look forward to lots more to share in 2023. The overall business environment remains dynamic, but as always, we are focused on what we can control.

What are the effects of abstentions and broker non-votes?
An abstention represents a stockholder's affirmative choice to decline to vote on a proposal. If a stockholder indicates on its proxy card that it wishes to abstain from voting its shares, or if a broker, bank or other nominee causes abstentions to be recorded for shares, these shares will be considered present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. As a result, abstentions will be counted for purposes of determining the presencepresence or absence of a quorum and will also count as votes against a proposal in cases where approval of the proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present virtually or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (Proposal No. 2 and Proposal No. 3). However, because the outcome of Proposal No. 1 (election of directors) will be determined by a plurality vote, abstentions will have no impact on the outcome of such proposal as long as a quorum exists.
Broker non-votes occur when a bank, broker or other nominee (i.e., the record holder) has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner on a matter for which the record holder does not have discretionary power to vote. Broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of calculating whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting but will not be counted for purposes of determining the number of votes cast on a proposal. Therefore, a broker non-vote will make a quorum more readily attainable but will not otherwise affect the outcome of the vote on any of the proposals.
How many votes are needed for approval of each proposal?
Proposal No. 1: Each director is elected by a plurality of the voting power of the shares present virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. A plurality means that the nominees with the largest number of FOR votes are elected as directors. You may (1) vote FOR the election of each of the director nominees named herein or (2) WITHHOLD authority to vote for each such director nominee. Because the outcome of this proposal will be determined by a plurality vote, any shares not voted FOR a particular nominee, whether as a result of choosing to WITHHOLD authority to vote or a broker non-vote, will have no effect on the outcome of the election.
Proposal No. 2: The approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. You may vote FOR or AGAINST this proposal, or you may indicate that you wish to ABSTAIN from voting on this proposal. Abstentions will be counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum and will also count as votes against this proposal, i.e., will have the same effect as a vote AGAINST this proposal. Broker non-votes will also be counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum but will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. Because this proposal is an advisory vote, the result will not be binding on our board of directors or our company. Our board of directors and our compensation committee will consider the outcome of the vote when determining named executive officer compensation.
Proposal No. 3: The ratification of the appointmentselection of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 20232024 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of thethe voting power of the shares present virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. You may vote FOR or AGAINST this proposal, or you may indicate that you wish to ABSTAIN from voting on this proposal. Abstentions will be counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum and will also count as votes against this proposal, i.e., will have the same effect as a vote AGAINST this proposal. Because this is a routine proposal, we do not expect any broker non-votes on this proposal.
What is the quorum requirement for the Annual Meeting?
A quorum is the minimum number of shares required to be present or represented at the Annual Meeting for the meeting to be properly held under our amended and restated bylaws and Delaware law. The holders of a majority of the voting power of the capital stock of the Company issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, present virtually or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions, choosing to withhold authority to vote and broker non-votes are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. If there is no quorum, the chairperson of the meeting may adjourn the meeting to another time or place.

All votes must be received by the independent inspector of elections before the polls close during the meeting.
If you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we recommend that you also vote by proxy so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting.
Street Name Stockholders. If you are a street name stockholder, then you will receive voting instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee. The availability of Internet and telephone voting options will depend on the voting process of your broker, bank or other nominee. We therefore recommend that you follow the voting instructions in the materials you receive. If your voting instruction form or Notice of Internet Availability of proxy materials indicates that you may vote your shares through the www.proxyvote.com website, then you may vote those shares at the Annual Meeting with the control number indicated on that voting instruction form or Notice of Internet Availability. Otherwise, you may not vote your shares at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee.
What if I do not specify how my shares are to be voted or fail to provide timely directions to my broker, bank or other nominee?
Stockholder of Record. If you are a stockholder of record and you submit a proxy, but you do not provide voting instructions, your shares will be voted:
“FOR” the election of each director nominee named in this Proxy Statement;
“FOR” the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers; and
“FOR” the ratification of the appointmentselection of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.2024.
In addition, if any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies will be authorized to vote or otherwise act on those matters in accordance with their judgment.
Street Name Stockholders. Brokers, banks and other nominees holding shares of common stock in street name for customers are generally required to vote such shares in the manner directed by their customers. In the absence of timely directions, your broker, bank or other nominee will have discretion to vote your shares on our sole routine matter: the proposal to ratify the appointmentselection of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.2024. Your broker, bank or other nominee will not have discretion to vote on any other proposals, which are considered non-routine matters, absent direction from you. In the event that your broker, bank or other nominee votes your shares on our sole routine matter, but is not able to vote your shares on the non-routine matters, then those shares will be treated as broker non-votes with respect to the non-routine proposals. Accordingly, if you own shares through a nominee, such as a broker or bank, please be sure to instruct your nominee how to vote to ensure that your shares are counted on each of the proposals.

attending and voting at the Annual Meeting (although attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy).
Street Name Stockholders. If you are a street name stockholder, then your broker, bank or other nominee can provide you with instructions on how to change or revoke your proxy.

Why are we holding a meeting virtually?

We are leveraging technology to hold a virtual Annual Meeting that expands convenient access to, and enables participation by, stockholders from any location around the world. We believe the virtual format encourages attendance and participation by a broader group of stockholders, while also reducing the costs and environmental impact associated with an in-person meeting. You will be able to vote and submit your questions during the meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/VZIO2024. Our virtual Annual Meeting will be governed by our rules of conduct and procedures, which will be posted at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/VZIO2024 on the date of the Annual Meeting. We have designed the format of the virtual Annual Meeting so that stockholders have the same rights and opportunities to vote and participate as they would have at a physical meeting. Stockholders will be able to submit questions online during the meeting, providing our stockholders with the opportunity for meaningful engagement with the Company.
How can I submit a question during the Annual Meeting?
If you want to submit a question during the Annual Meeting, log into www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/VZIO2023VZIO2024 type your question into the “Ask a Question” field, and click “Submit.” Stockholders are permitted to submit questions during the Annual Meeting via the virtual meeting website that are in compliance with the meeting rules of conduct provided on the virtual meeting website. We will answer as many questions submitted in accordance with the meeting rules of conduct as possible in the time allotted for the meeting. Only questions that are relevant to an agenda item to be voted on by stockholders will be answered.
What if I have technical difficulties or trouble accessing the Annual Meeting?
We encourage you to access the Annual Meeting before it begins. Online check-in will start at approximately 9:45 a.m. Pacific Time on June 8, 2023.12, 2024.

Technical support will be available starting at 9:45 a.m. Pacific Time on the day of the Annual Meeting and will remain available until the Annual Meeting has ended.
What is the effect of giving a proxy?
A proxy is your legal designation of another person to vote the stock you own at the Annual Meeting. The person you designate is your “proxy,” and you give your proxy authority to vote your shares by voting by telephone or over the Internet, or if you requested to receive a printed copy of the proxy materials, by submitting the proxy card.
Proxies are solicited by and on behalf of our board of directors. Jerry Huang, our General Counsel and Corporate Secretary and William Wang, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, have been designated as proxy holders for the Annual Meeting by our board of directors.

If the proxy is dated and signed, but no specific instructions are given, however, the shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our board of directors on the proposals as described above. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, then the proxy holder will use the proxy holder’s own judgment to determine how to vote your shares. If the Annual Meeting is postponed or adjourned, then the proxy holder can vote your shares on the new meeting date, unless you have properly revoked your proxy, as described above.
Who will count the votes?
A representative of American Stock Transfer &Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, our transfer agent, will tabulate the votes and act as inspector of election.

How can I contact VIZIO’s transfer agent?
You may contact our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer &Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, by telephone at (800) 937-5449, or by writing American Stock Transfer &Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, at 6201 15th Ave, Brooklyn,55 Challenger Road, 2d Floor, Ridgefield Park, New York 11219.Jersey 07660. You may also access instructions with respect to certain stockholder matters (e.g., change of address) via the Internet at https://www.astfinancial.com.www.equiniti.com/us/ast-access/individuals/.
How are proxies solicited for the Annual Meeting and who is paying for such solicitation?
Our board of directors is soliciting proxies for use at the Annual Meeting by means of the proxy materials. We will bear the entire cost of proxy solicitation, including the preparation, assembly, printing, mailing and distribution of the proxy materials. Copies of solicitation materials will also be made available upon request to brokers, banks and other nominees to forward to the beneficial owners of the shares held of record by such brokers, banks or other nominees. The original solicitation of proxies may be supplemented by solicitation by telephone, electronic communications or other means by our directors, officers or employees. No additional compensation will be paid to these individuals for any such services, although we may reimburse such individuals for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with such solicitation.
Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?
We will disclose voting results on a Current Report on Form 8-K that we will file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“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, we will file a Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and will provide the final results in an amendment to the Form 8-K as soon as they become available.
Why did I receive a Notice of Internet Availability instead of a full set of proxy materials?
In accordance with the rules of the SEC we have elected to furnish our proxy materials, including this Proxy Statement and our annual report, primarily via the Internet. As a result, we are mailing to our stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability instead of a paper copy of the proxy materials. The Notice of Internet Availability contains instructions on how to access our proxy materials on the Internet, how to vote on the proposals, how to request printed copies of the proxy materials and our annual report, and how to request to receive all future proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by e-mail. We encourage stockholders to take advantage of the availability of the proxy materials on the Internet to help reduce our costs and the environmental impact of our annual meetings.
What does it mean if I receive more than one Notice of Internet Availability or more than one set of printed proxy materials?
If you receive more than one Notice of Internet Availability or more than one set of printed proxy materials, then your shares may be registered in more than one name and/or are registered in different accounts. Please follow the voting instructions on each Notice of Internet Availability or each set of printed proxy materials, as applicable, to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

I share an address with another stockholder, and we received only one copy of the Notice of Internet Availability or Proxy Statement and annual report. How may I obtain an additional copy of the Notice of Internet Availability or Proxy Statement and annual report?
We have adopted a procedure approved by the SEC called “householding,” under which we can deliver a single copy of the Notice of Internet Availability and, if applicable, the Proxy Statement and annual report, to multiple stockholders who share the same address unless we receive contrary instructions from one or more stockholders. This procedure reduces our printing and mailing costs. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to be able to access and receive separate proxy cards. Upon written or oral request, we will deliver promptly a separate copy of the Notice of Internet Availability and, if applicable, the Proxy Statement and annual report, to any stockholder at a shared address to which we delivered a single copy of these documents. To receive a separate copy, or, if you are receiving multiple copies, to request that we only send a single copy of next year’s Notice of Internet Availability or Proxy Statement and annual report, as applicable, you may contact us as follows:

Director Independence and Controlled Company Exemption
Director Independence
Our Class A common stock is listed on the NYSE. Under NYSE listing standards, independent directors must comprise a majority of our board of directors, subject to specified exceptions (including the “controlled company” exemption described below). Under NYSE listing standards, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if our board of directors determines that the director does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.
In addition, subject to specified exceptions, each member of our audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees must be independent and, in the case of our audit and compensation committees, satisfy heightened independence requirements. For compensation committee members, our board of directors must consider all factors specifically relevant to determining whether each compensation committee member has a relationship with us that is material to the director’s ability to be independent from management in connection with the duties of a compensation committee member. Audit committee members must satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). To be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors, or any other board committee accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries, or be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries.
Our board of directors has undertaken a review of the independence of each of our directors. Based on information provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, our board of directors has determined that Mr. Burbank, Mr. Russell, Ms. Gouw, Mrs. Free, and Mr. Mohan representing five of our six directors, do not have any material relationship with us (either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with us) and that each of these directors is an “independent director” as defined under the NYSE listing standards. William Wang is not considered an independent director because of his position as our Chief Executive Officer. In making these determinations, our board of directors considered the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with our company and all other facts and circumstances that our board of directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director, and the transactions involving them described in the section titled “Related Person Transactions.”
Controlled Company Exemption
William Wang, our Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer controls a majority of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock. As a result, we are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the NYSE listing standards. Under these rules, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including:
the requirement that a majority of the board of directors consist of independent directors;
the requirement that we have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities;
the requirement that we have a nominating and corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities; and
the requirement for an annual performance evaluation of the nominating and corporate governance and compensation committees.
While a majority of our board of directors consists of independent directors and our compensation committee is composed entirely of independent directors, our nominating and corporate governance committee is not currently composed entirely of independent directors. In the event that we cease to be a “controlled company” and our shares continue to be listed on the NYSE, we will be required to comply with these provisions within the applicable transition periods.
-14--15-

Board Leadership Structure and Role of Lead Independent Director
We believe that the structure of our board of directors, with Mr. Wang acting as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of our board of directors, Mr. Burbank acting as lead independent director, and all-independent audit and compensation committees that oversee the majority of the company’s operations, risks, performance, and strategy, provides the most effective governance framework and allows us to benefit from Mr. Wang’s talent, knowledge, and leadership as a founder of VIZIO, while maintaining effective independent oversight of management. This structure creates accountability and enhances our ability to develop and execute our strategy and communicate our message clearly and consistently to stockholders.
Chairman of the Board of Directors
Mr. Wang, our founder and Chief Executive Officer, also currently serves as the Chairman of our board of directors .directors. As our founder, and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Wang possesses detailed and in-depth knowledge of the issues, opportunities and challenges facing our company and business, which enables him to effectively lead our board of directors, including by identifying strategic priorities, leading critical discussions and executing our business plans. We believe Mr. Wang’s extensive company-specific experience and expertise, together with the outside experience, oversight and expertise of our lead independent director and the independent directors on our committees, allow for differing perspectives and roles regarding strategy development that benefit our stockholders.
Lead Independent Director and Independent Committees
Because Mr. Wang is our Chairman and also our Chief Executive Officer and is thus not an “independent” director under NYSE listing standards, in August 2021 our board of directors has appointed Mr. Burbank to serve as our lead independent director. Our board of directors believes that Mr. Burbank provides an effective independent voice in our leadership structure.
The lead independent director position is a critical aspect of our corporate governance framework. Our board of directors believes that having a lead independent director enhances communications and relations among our board of directors, Mr. Burbank and other members of our senior management, and assists our board of directors in reaching a consensus on strategies and policies. In addition to generally serving as a liaison between Mr. Wang and our independent directors, the responsibilities of the lead independent director include:
presiding over executive sessions of independent directors, at which the Chairman is not present;
advising the Chairman as to an appropriate schedule of meetings of the board of directors, ensuring that the independent directors can perform their duties responsibly while not interfering with ongoing company operations;
providing input to the Chairman, as is necessary or appropriate, with respect to the agendas for meetings of the board of directors and its committees;
advising the Chairman on the retention of advisors and consultants who report directly to the board of directors;
receiving messages from major stockholders wishing to communicate directly with the independent directors and facilitate an appropriate response;
facilitating discussions among independent directors on key issues and concerns outside of meetings of the board of directors; and
having such other duties as the board of directors may delegate to assist in meeting its responsibilities.
Our independent directors meet at least twice a year in executive sessions chaired by Mr. Burbank. These executive sessions allow our independent directors to discuss, without management present, topics including our strategy, Chief Executive Officer and other senior management performance and compensation, effectiveness of our board of directors, and other matters.
-15--16-

Only independent directors serve on the audit committee and the compensation committee, which we believe provides strong independent leadership and oversight for each of these committees. As a result of the board of directors’ committee system and the existence of a majority of independent directors, the board of directors maintains effective oversight of our business operations, including independent oversight of our financial statements, executive compensation, selection of director candidates and corporate governance programs.
Role of Board in Risk Oversight Process
Risk is inherent with every business, and we face a number of risks, including strategic, financial, business and operational, legal and compliance, and reputational, in the pursuit and achievement of our strategic objectives. We have designed and implemented processes to manage risk in our operations. While management is responsible for the day-to-day management of the risks our company faces, our board of directors and its committees take an active role in overseeing the management of our risks and have the ultimate responsibility for the oversight of risk management, as follows.
Board of Directors
Our board of directors regularly reviews information regarding our operational, financial, legal and strategic risks in the context of discussions with management, question and answer sessions, and reports from the management team at each quarterly meeting of our board of directors and receives interim updates from management when urgent matters arise. Members of our senior management attend quarterly meetings of our board of directors, provide presentations on operations including significant risks, and are available to address any questions or concerns raised by our board of directors. Topics of regular reports to our board of directors include risks and market trends that have or may impact our financial performance, updates on pending and threatened litigation, privacy and data security matters and escalation of ethics complaints and issues. The board of directors also receives regular reports on our environmental, social and governance strategies, practices, policies and reporting. As part of this overall approach, our board of directors considers both the materiality of risks and their immediacy in making strategic decisions and helping management to prioritize resources. On an annual basis, the Board of Directors discusses our approach to cybersecurity risk management with a representative of the Risk Management Steering Committee, which is described below in the section titled “Committees—Audit Committee”
Committees
In addition, our three committees assist the board of directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities in certain areas of risk.
Audit Committee
The Audit Committee, in coordination with our Risk Management Steering Committee, oversees our enterprise risk management (“ERM”) process, including the management of risks arising from cybersecurity threats. The Risk Management Committee is comprised of our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), General Counsel (“GC”), Senior Vice President, Operations and Technical Support (“SVP-Ops”), Senior Vice President, Engineering (“SVP-Engineering”) and Group Vice President, Information Technology (“GVP-IT”) and other business unit representatives and subject matter experts, who regularly interact with our ERM function. The Audit Committee and the Risk Management Steering Committee each receive regular presentations and reports on cybersecurity risks, which address a wide range of topics including recent developments, evolving standards, vulnerability assessments, third-party and independent reviews, the threat environment, technological trends and information security considerations arising with respect to our peers and third parties. The Risk Management Steering Committee promptly receives information regarding cybersecurity incidents and elevates information to the Audit Committee about incidents when appropriate, as well as ongoing updates regarding any such incident until it has been addressed. The Audit Committee also receives regular executive reports on cybersecurity risk management from the GC, SVP-Ops and GVP-IT.

The audit committee also coordinates the board of directors’ oversight of our internal control over financial reporting, disclosure controls and procedures, related party transactions and code of conduct, and management regularly report to the audit committee on these areas. The audit committee oversees our ethics and compliance program, receives quarterly reports from our General Counsel on the overall program and escalation of significant complaints and annually reviews our Code of Conduct and Business Ethics. The audit committee also provides oversight of our cybersecurity risk and receives quarterly reports from members of management on cybersecurity matters including updates on potential cybersecurity risks and mitigation strategies, information security initiatives and assessments of our cybersecurity program. The audit committee regularly meets separately with representatives from our
-17-

independent auditor and internal auditors outside of the presence of management to ensure candid conversations of potential risks.
Compensation Committee
The compensation committee assists our board of directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to the management of risks arising from our compensation policies and programs as well as succession planning as it relates to our executive officers. The compensation committee annually reviews potential risks arising from our compensation program and practices and considers potential compensation risk in reviewing and approving our executive compensation and overall compensation programs and practices.
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
The nominating and corporate governance committee assists our board of directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to the management of risks associated with board organization, membership and structure, succession planning for our directors and corporate governance. The nominating and corporate governance committee evaluates the size and
-16-

composition of our board at least annually to ensure effectiveness and oversees our board of directors’ annual self-evaluation and potential areas of improvement identified in that process.
Each committee chairperson reports on the activities of the committee quarterly to our board of directors, and when any of the committees receives a report related to material risk oversight, the chairperson of the relevant committee will report on the discussion to the full board of directors.
Our board of directors and its committees engage outside advisors and experts from time to time to assist in understanding threats, trends, and our risk environment in general. Our board of directors believes its current leadership structure supports its risk oversight function.
Board Committees
Our board of directors has established the following standing committees of the board of directors: audit committee; compensation committee; and nominating and corporate governance committee. From time to time, our board of directors also forms special or ad hoc committees, typically to address discrete issues. For example, in 2023, our board of directors formed the Transactions Committee, which is described below.

The composition and responsibilities of each of the committees of our board of directors is described below. Members will serve on these committees until their resignation or until as otherwise determined by our board of directors.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
The current members of our nominating and corporate governance committee are Mr. Burbank and Mr. Wang. Mr. Burbank is the chairperson of our nominating and corporate governance committee. Because we are considered to be a “controlled company” for the purposes of the NYSE listing requirements, we are permitted to opt out of the NYSE listing requirements that would otherwise require our nominating and corporate governance committee to be comprised entirely of independent directors. We have historically relied on, and we intend to continue to rely on, such exemption. Our nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for, among other things:
identifying, evaluating and selecting or making recommendations to our board of directors regarding, nominees for election to our board of directors;
evaluating the performance of our board of directors and of individual directors;
reviewing, considering and making recommendations to our board of directors regarding the composition of our board of directors and its committees;
considering the board of directors’ leadership structure;
evaluating the independence of directors and director nominees;
overseeing, developing, and recommending to our board of directors, a set of corporate governance guidelines; and
developing and overseeing processes for annual evaluations of the board of directors and its committees.
Our nominating and corporate governance committee operates under a written charter that satisfies the applicable listing standards of the NYSE. A copy of the charter of our nominating and corporate governance committee is available on our website at investors.vizio.com/governance/governance-documents. During 2022,2023, our nominating and corporate governance committee held four meetings.

Ad Hoc Committee

Transactions Committee
-20-

In August 2023, our board of directors formed the transactions committee for the purpose of exploring, evaluating, considering, reviewing, negotiating, and, as appropriate, recommending to the board of directors for approval of a potential business combination transaction, sale of VIZIO, or other similar strategic transaction. The current members of the transactions committee are Mr. Mohan, Mr. Russell, and Ms. Gouw, with Mr. Mohan serving as chairperson.
Attendance at Board and Stockholder Meetings
During our fiscal year ended December 31, 2022,2023, our board of directors held fournine meetings (all(four of which were regularly scheduled meetings and five of which were special meetings), and each director attended 100%at least 75% of the aggregate of (1) the total number of meetings of the board of directors held during the period for which he or she has been a director and (2) the total number of meetings held by all committees on which he or she served during the periods that he or she served.
Although we do not have a formal policy regarding attendance by members of our board of directors at the annual meetings of stockholders, we encourage, but do not require, directors to attend. All fivesix directors who were then serving on the Board attended our 20222023 annual meeting of stockholders.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
During 20222023, the members of our compensation committee were Mr. Russell and Mrs. Free. No member of our Compensation Committee is or has been an officer or other employee of the Company. Additionally, in 2022,2023, none of our executive officers served on the board of directors or compensation committee (or other committee serving an equivalent function) of any entity that had an executive officer serving on our board of directors or compensation committee.
Considerations in Evaluating Director Nominees
Our nominating and corporate governance committee uses a variety of methods, including engaging the services of outside consultants and search firms, for identifying and evaluating potential director nominees. Our nominating and corporate governance committee works with our board of directors to determine the desired qualifications, expertise, and characteristics of our board of directors, including such factors as business experience and diversity, and with respect to diversity, such factors as differences in professional background, education, skill and other individual qualities and attributes that contribute to the total mix of viewpoints and experience represented on the board of directors.
-19-

In its evaluation of director candidates, including the current directors eligible for re-election, our nominating and corporate governance committee evaluates each candidate in the context of the current size and composition of our board of directors and the needs of our board of directors and the respective committees of our board of directors. The nominating and corporate governance committee also considers such factors as character and integrity, judgment, business experience and diversity of experience, background, independence, area of expertise, length of service, potential conflicts of interest, other commitments and the like, including as required by applicable laws, rules and regulations, as well as other individual qualities and attributes that contribute to the total mix of viewpoints and experience represented on our board of directors. Although our board of directors does not maintain a specific policy with respect to board diversity, our board of directors believes that the board of directors should be a diverse body, and the nominating and corporate governance committee considers a broad range of perspectives, backgrounds and experiences. Each nominee must have high personal and professional ethics and integrity and the ability to exercise sound business judgment, achievement and competence in such nominee’s field, and skills that are complementary to those of the existing board of directors. Nominees must also have the ability to offer advice and guidance to our management team and to make significant contributions to our success and must have sufficient time available, in the judgment of our nominating and corporate governance committee, to perform all board and committee responsibilities. Director candidates must also understand the fiduciary responsibilities that are required of a director. Other than the foregoing, there are no stated minimum criteria for director nominees, although our nominating and corporate governance committee may also consider such other factors as it may deem, from time to time, are in our and our stockholders' best interests.
If our nominating and corporate governance committee determines that an additional or replacement director is required, then the committee may take such measures as it considers appropriate in connection with its evaluation of a director candidate, including candidate interviews, inquiry of the person or persons making the recommendation or nomination, engagement of an outside search firm to gather additional information, or reliance on the knowledge of the members of the committee, board or management.
-21-

After completing its review and evaluation of director candidates, our nominating and corporate governance committee recommends to our full board of directors the director nominees for selection. Our nominating and corporate governance committee has discretion to decide which individuals to recommend for nomination as directors and our board of directors has the final authority in determining the selection of director candidates for nomination to our board.

Board Skills and Diversity

Below is a summary of certain of the skills and experience considered in recommending our director nominees, as well as personal diversity information with respect to each director nominee. Our nominating and corporate governance committee and our board believe that our director nominees bring a strong mix of relevant experiences and skills that contribute to an effective board of directors. We also believe that having a corporate culture of inclusivity and respect for others is vital to the overall success of our business. Although our board of directors does not maintain a specific policy with respect to board diversity, our board of directors believes that the board of directors should be a diverse body, and the nominating and corporate governance committee considers a broad range of perspectives, backgrounds and experiences.

Stockholder Recommendations and Nominations to our Board of Directors
Our nominating and corporate governance committee will consider recommendations and nominations for candidates to our board of directors from stockholders who have continuously held at least one percent (1%) of our fully diluted capitalization for at least 12 months prior to the date of the submission of the recommendation, so long as such recommendations and nominations comply with our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, all applicable company policies and all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including those promulgated by the SEC. Our nominating and corporate governance committee will evaluate such recommendations in accordance with its charter, our bylaws, corporate governance guidelines and our policies and procedures for director candidates, as well as the director nominee criteria described above. This process is designed to ensure that our board of directors includes members with diverse backgrounds, skills and experience, including appropriate financial and other expertise relevant to our business.
An eligible stockholder that wants to recommend a candidate to our board of directors should direct the recommendation in writing by letter to our General Counsel at VIZIO Holding Corp., 39 Tesla, Irvine, California 92618. Such recommendation must include, among other things, the candidate’s name, age, home and business contact information, detailed biographical data, relevant qualifications, a signed letter from the candidate confirming willingness to serve, information regarding any relationships between the candidate and us and evidence of the recommending stockholder’s ownership of our capital stock, and any other information required by our amended and restated bylaws. Such recommendation must also include a statement from the recommending stockholder in support of the candidate, particularly within the context of the criteria for membership on our board of directors. Our nominating and corporate governance committee has discretion to decide which individuals to recommend for nomination as directors.
Under our amended and restated bylaws, stockholders may also directly nominate persons for our board of directors. Any nomination must comply with the requirements set forth in our amended and restated bylaws and the rules and regulations of the SEC and should be sent in writing to our Secretary at the address above. To be timely for our 20242025 annual meeting of stockholders, nominations must be received by our corporate secretary observing the deadlines discussed below under “Other Matters—Stockholder Proposals or Director Nominations for 20242025 Annual Meeting.” AnyFurther, any notice of director nomination submitted must include the additional information required by Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act.Act and no later than five business days prior to the annual meeting the stockholder nominating an individual for election as a director must provide us with reasonable evidence that such stockholder has met the requirements of Rule 14a-19 or such director nominee may be deemed ineligible. Please note that if the proposed transaction with Walmart, Inc. is completed before we would otherwise hold our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, such meeting will not occur.
Communications with the Board of Directors
Stockholders and other interested parties wishing to communicate directly with our non-management directors, may do so by writing and sending the correspondence to our General Counsel or Legal Department by mail to our principal executive offices at VIZIO Holding Corp., 39 Tesla, Irvine, California 92618. Our General Counsel or Legal Department, in consultation with appropriate directors as necessary, will review all incoming stockholder communications (except for mass mailings, product complaints or inquiries, job inquiries, business solicitations and patently offensive or otherwise inappropriate material) and will route such communications to the appropriate director(s) or, if none is specified, then to the chairperson of the board of directors or the lead independent director. These policies and procedures do not apply to communications to non-management directors from our officers or directors who are stockholders or stockholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, which are discussed below under “Other Matters—Stockholder Proposals or Director Nominations for 20242025 Annual Meeting.”
Policy Prohibiting Hedging or Pledging of Securities
Under our insider trading policy, our employees, including our executive officers, and the members of our board of directors are prohibited from, directly or indirectly, among other things, (1) engaging in short sales, (2) trading in publicly-traded options, such as puts and calls, and other derivative securities with respect to our securities (other than stock options, restricted stock units and other compensatory awards issued to such individuals by us), (3) entering into hedging or similar transactions designed to decrease the risks associated with holding our common stock, (4) pledging any of our securities as collateral for any loans and (5) holding our securities in a margin account.

Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Our board of directors has adopted corporate governance guidelines. These guidelines address, among other items, the qualifications and responsibilities of our directors and director candidates, the structure and composition of our board of directors and corporate governance policies and standards applicable to us in general. In addition, our board of directors has
-22-

adopted a code of business conduct and 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 corporate governance guidelines and code of business conduct and ethics are available on our website at investors.vizio.com/governance/governance-documents. We will post amendments to our code of business conduct and ethics or any waivers of our code of business conduct and ethics for directors and executive officers on the same website.
Board Evaluations
Our board of directors conducts an annual evaluation of the performance of individual directors, the board as a whole, and each of the board’s standing committees, including an evaluation of the qualifications of individual members of the board and its committees. A list of questions is provided to each director in advance and the responses are collected by our in-house legal team. The results of the evaluation are first reviewed by our nominating and corporate governance committee. Thereafter, the evaluation results and any recommendations for improvement are provided to our board of directors and the other standing committees of the board by our lead independent director and the chair of our nominating and corporate governance committee together with a member of our legal team. Our board of directors and our management work closely to address any action items that result from this evaluation process.
Non-Employee Director Compensation
We have adopted an outside director compensation policy (the “Outside Director Compensation Policy”) under which non-employee directors receive compensation in the form of cash and equity, as described below. We also reimburse our non-employee directors for expenses incurred in connection with attending board and committee meetings as well as continuing director education. This policy has been developed with input from our independent compensation consultant, Compensia, Inc., (“Compensia”) regarding practices and compensation levels at comparable companies. It is designed to attract, retain, and reward non-employee directors. We review the Outside Director Compensation Policy annually and make amendments as needed, on which Compensia also advises.
On February 23, 2023, our board of directors, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee with input from Compensia, amended the Outside Director Compensation Policy to, among other things, and as further described below, (i) increase the annual cash retainer for service on the board of directors and on certain committees, (ii) increase the value of the annual equity award granted to directors, and (iii) provide for an initial award for newly-appointed directors.
Compensation for our non-employee directors is not limited to the equity awards and payments set forth in our Outside Director Compensation Policy. Our non-employee directors remain eligible to receive equity awards and cash or other compensation outside of the Outside Director Compensation Policy, as may be provided from time to time at the discretion of our board of directors.

Prior to the amendment to our Outside Director Compensation Policy in February 2023, our policy did not provide for the automatic grant of an equity award for directors joining our board of directors at any time other than the date of our annual meeting of stockholders, so no equity award was automatically granted to Vicky Free upon her election to our board of directors in November 2021. To provide initial equity incentive compensation to Mrs. Free, our board of directors approved an award of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with a grant date fair value of approximately $123,750, vesting as to one-third of the RSUs subject to the award on each of February 18, 2022, May 18, 2022 and August 18, 2022, subject to Mrs. Free’s continued service as a director through each such date.

Each non-employee director who serves as the chair of a committee receives only the annual fee as the chair of the committee and does not receive an additional annual fee as a member of the committee. All cash payments to non-employee directors are paid quarterly in arrears on a prorated basis.
Equity Incentive Compensation
Initial Award
Under our current Outside Director Compensation Policy, if a non-employee director joins our board of directors at any time other than the date of our annual meeting of stockholders, then on the first trading day on or after such director’s election or appointment, the director will be automatically granted an award of RSUs with a grant date fair value (determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)) equal to the product obtained by multiplying $200,000 by the fraction obtained by dividing (i) the then-expected number of days during the period beginning on the date of such election or appointment and ending on the day immediately preceding the then-expected date of the next annual meeting of stockholders by (ii) the number of days during the period beginning on the date of the previous annual meeting of stockholders and ending on the day immediately preceding the then-expected date of the next annual meeting of stockholders, rounded up to the nearest whole share (the “Initial Award”).
Each Initial Award vests as to 25% of the underlying shares every three months after the award’s grant date of grant, in each case subject to the director’s continued service through each vesting date. If an individual was a member of our board of directors and also an employee, becoming a non-employee director due to termination of employment will not entitle such individual to an Initial Award.
Annual Award
Under our Outside Director Compensation Policy, in addition to the annual cash retainers described above, on or about the date of each of our annual stockholder meetings, each non-employee director who is continuing as a director following our annual stockholder meeting is automatically granted an Annual Award of RSUs. Prior to the amendments to our Outside Director Compensation Policy in February 2023, the value of the Annual Award was $165,000, rounded up to the nearest whole share. Under our current Director Compensation Policy these awards have a value of $200,000, rounded up to the nearest whole share.
Each Annual Award vests as to 25% of the underlying shares every three months after the award’s grant date, subject to the director’s continued service through each vesting date.
-24--26-

Change-in-Control
In the event of a change in control of our company, all equity awards granted to a non-employee director (including those granted pursuant to our Outside Director Compensation Policy) will fully vest and become immediately exercisable (if applicable) and, with respect to equity awards with performance-based vesting, unless specifically provided otherwise under the applicable award agreement, a company policy that applies to the non-employee director, or other written agreement between the non-employee director and us, all performance goals or other vesting criteria will be deemed achieved at 100% of target levels and all other terms and conditions met.
Maximum Annual Compensation Limit
In any fiscal year of ours, no non-employee director may be paid, issued or granted cash compensation and equity awards with a total value greater than $500,000, with the value of an equity award based on its grant date fair value for purposes of this limit (the “annual director limit”). Any cash compensation paid or equity awards granted to a non-employee director while he or she was an employee or consultant (other than a non-employee director) will not count toward the annual director limit.

PROPOSAL NO. 2:
ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
Pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are asking our stockholders to approve, on an advisory or non-binding basis, the compensation of our named executive officers as described in this Proxy Statement. This proposal, commonly referred to as the “say-on-pay” proposal, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on our named executive officers’ compensation as a whole. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation or any specific named executive officer, but rather the overall compensation of all of our named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this Proxy Statement. In 2022, we held our first say-on-pay vote, and we currently hold our say-on-pay vote annually, with the next say-on-pay vote to occur at our 20242025 annual meeting of stockholders.
The say-on-pay vote is advisory, and therefore is not binding on us, our compensation committee or our board of directors. The say-on-pay vote will, however, provide information to us regarding investor sentiment about our executive compensation philosophy, policies and practices, which our compensation committee will be able to consider when determining executive compensation for the remainder of the current fiscal year and beyond. Our board of directors and our compensation committee value the opinions of our stockholders. To the extent there is any significant vote against the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement, we will endeavor to communicate with stockholders to better understand the concerns that influenced the vote and consider our stockholders’ concerns, and our compensation committee will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address those concerns.
You are encouraged to review the section titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” in this Proxy Statement, which provides a comprehensive review of our executive compensation program and its elements, objectives and rationale and “Compensation Tables” which provides detailed compensation information of our named executive officers for 2022.2023.
We are asking our stockholders to approve the compensation of our named executive officers as described in this Proxy Statement by voting for the following non-binding resolution:
“RESOLVED, that the stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to our named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the compensation discussion and analysis, the compensation tables and the narrative discussion.”
Vote Required
The approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote AGAINST this proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.
As an advisory vote, the result of this proposal is non-binding. Although the vote is non-binding, our board of directors and our compensation committee value the opinions of our stockholders and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for our named executive officers.
Board Recommendation
OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL, ON AN ADVISORY BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AS DISCLOSED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE
The audit committee is a committee of the board of directors comprised solely of independent directors as required by the NYSE listing rules and the rules and regulations of the SEC. The audit committee operates under a written charter adopted by the board of directors. This written charter is reviewed annually for changes, as appropriate. With respect to VIZIO’s financial reporting process, VIZIO’s management is responsible for (1) establishing and maintaining internal controls and (2) preparing VIZIO’s consolidated financial statements. VIZIO’s independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP, is responsible for performing an independent audit of VIZIO’s consolidated financial statements. It is the responsibility of the audit committee to oversee these activities. It is not the responsibility of the audit committee to prepare VIZIO’s financial statements. These are the fundamental responsibilities of management. In the performance of its oversight function, the audit committee has:
reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements with management and KPMG LLP;
discussed with KPMG LLP the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board or PCAOB,(“PCAOB”), and the SEC; and
received the written disclosures and the letter from KPMG LLP required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the audit committee concerning independence, and has discussed with KPMG LLP its independence.
Based on the review and discussions noted above, the audit committee recommended to the board of directors that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in VIZIO’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 20222023 for filing with the SEC.
Respectfully submitted by the members of the audit committee of the board of directors:
Julia Gouw (Chair)

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis provides information about the material components of our executive compensation program for our named executive officers (“NEOs”). Our NEOs, consisting of our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and our only two remaining executive officers (other than our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), as of December 31, 2022,2023, were:
William Wang, our Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”);
Adam Townsend, our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”);
Ben Wong, our President and Chief Operating Officer (“COO”); and
Michael O’Donnell, our Chief Revenue/Strategic Growth Officer (“CR/SO”).1
___________________
(1)Mr. O’Donnell was promoted to CR/SO effective January 1, 2022.
Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
We recognize that the ability to excel depends on the integrity, knowledge, skill, diversity and teamwork of our employees. To this end, we strive to create an environment of mutual respect, encouragement and teamwork that rewards commitment and performance and that is responsive to the needs of our employees. Accordingly, we strive to create an executive compensation program that balances short-term versus long-term payments and awards. Our compensation program consists of various elements, including base salary and variable cash and long-term incentives. The base salary component of our compensation program is meant to attract and retain talented individuals by providing a competitive baseline of compensation, and our variable cash and long-term incentives are primarily aimed at ensuring a performance-based delivery that will ensure a strong connection between executive compensation and financial performance to drive results and maximize stockholder value. The principles and objectives of our compensation and benefits programs for our employees generally, and for our NEOs specifically, are intended to:
attract, engage and retain individuals of superior ability, experience and managerial talent, enabling us to be an employer of choice in our highly-competitive and dynamic industry;
ensure a performance-based delivery of pay that aligns our NEOs’ rewards with our corporate strategies, business and financial objectives and the long-term interests of our stockholders;
compensate our NEOs in a manner that incentivizes them to manage our business to meet our long-range objectives;
compensate our NEOs in a manner commensurate with our performance;
motivate and reward executive officers whose knowledge, skills and performance promote our continued success;
seek to ensure that total compensation is fair, reasonable and competitive; and
promote a long-term commitment to us.
Process for Determining Compensation
Role of the Compensation Committee
Our compensation committee, which is wholly composed of independent directors, reviews and approves all compensation of our executive officers, administers our equity compensation plans, oversees our compensation programs and overall compensation philosophy, strategy and design, and reviews and makes recommendations to our board of directors on non-employee director compensation. To inform its determinations, the compensation committee selects and monitors our compensation peer group, considers industry trends and practices, reviews company performance metrics, and considers other information provided by management and our independent compensation consultant. Using this information, the
-32-

compensation committee evaluates the elements and design of our executive officer and non-employee director compensation programs annually, and more often as it deems appropriate.
-35-

Role of Senior Management
Our CEO, COO, CFO and human resources function makereview compensation recommendations to our CEOdata with respect to our executive officers (otherother than our CEO).CEO and make recommendations to the compensation committee, with each recusing themselves with respect to their own compensation. Senior management does not make recommendations with respect to CEO compensation, which is decided by our compensation committee with input from its compensation consultant, as described below. Following approval from our CEO, our CFO, as head of our human resources function, presents management’s recommendations regarding our executive compensation matters to our compensation committee, which makes all executive compensation determinations for our NEOs.
Role of Compensation Consultant
Our compensation committee has the authority to retain the services of external advisors, including compensation consultants, legal counsel and other advisors, from time to time, as it sees fit, in connection with carrying out its duties. In 2022,2023, our compensation committee once again engaged Compensia, Inc. (“Compensia”), a national compensation consulting firm, to assist in reviewing our executive compensation program. The services provided by Compensia included reviewing and assessing the existing compensation we provided to our executives and non-employee directors, providing market data (from(from public filings by companies in our compensation peer group, a custom peer cut of Radford survey data consisting of compensation data from 1617 out of 2120 of the companies in our compensation peer group, and a hardware and software U.S. cut of Radford survey data consisting of compensation data from public companies with $1 billion to $5 billion in revenues) on the compensation provided to similarly situated executives, and advising and making recommendations on potential executive compensation decisions.
Compensia did not provide any services to us other than the consulting services it provided to our compensation committee. Our compensation committee assessed the independence of Compensia taking into account the factors set forth in Rule 10C-1 promulgated under the Exchange Act, the listing standards of the NYSE, and any other relevant factors and concluded that the work that Compensia was to perform for our compensation committee did not raise any conflicts of interest.
Role of Compensation Data
We aim to compensate our executive officers at levels that are at least commensurate with the compensation of executive officers in similar positions at companies relative to us in size (measured by annual revenue), geography (Southern California or applicable region) and industry (technology), as reported in published survey sources. The individuals responsible for making compensation recommendations as well as our compensation committee also consider the scope of responsibility of each executive officer, the differentiation between the cash packages of our executive officers, and the officer’s tenure and experience. In determining 20222023 compensation, we did not use a formula for taking into account these different factors.
In FebruaryNovember 2022, with Compensia’s assistance, our compensation committee approved a group of public companies to be used when conducting a competitive market analysis of executive officer compensation in 2023, which consisted of 2120 publicly-traded companies that each had aggregate revenues for the previous four quarters between $1.1 billion and $4.5$4.2 billion, had a market capitalization between $918$496 million and $14.7$7 billion, and was in one of the following industries: technology hardware, storage & peripherals; electronic equipment, instruments & components;hardware; household products; household durables;consumer facing technology; communications equipment; broadcasting; semiconductors &and semiconductor equipment; software; IT services; internet &services and infrastructure; internet and direct marketing retail; and entertainment. The companies in this compensation peer group were as follows:
AMC Networks Inc.GoDaddyF5, Inc.Pure Storage,Lions Gate Entertainment Corp.Sonos Inc.Viasat, Inc.
Coherent, Inc.GoPro,GoDaddy Inc.Rackspace Technology,Lumentum Holdings Inc.Vontier CorporationStitch Fix, Inc.

Energizer Holdings, Inc.Lions Gate Entertainment Corp.iRobot CorporationStitch Fix,Roku, Inc.
F5, Inc.Lumentum Holdings Inc.Synaptics IncorporatedVontier Corporation
The November 2022 updates to our compensation peer group reflected the removal of Fitbit, Inc., Grubhub Inc., and Viant TechnologyZynga Inc., which were acquired, and the removal of NETGEAR, Inc., which had a market capitalization that fellwas acquired. The compensation committee did not add any companies to our peer group for 2023.

-33--36-

below the range described above. The 2022 updates also included adding two new companies, AMC Networks Inc. and Roku, Inc., both of which met the objective size and industry criteria as well as other factors that the compensation committee deemed relevant.
Our compensation committee considered the compensation provided to similarly situated executives (at the 25th, 50th, 60th, and 75th percentiles) based on market compensation data provided by Compensia, but our compensation committee did not benchmark any compensation element to a specific percentile and also considered such other factors as it deemed appropriate, including (i) each executive officer’s existing compensation package, including the amount of each element of compensation provided to the executive officer, the value of the executive officer’s unvested equity holdings, and any recent adjustments to the executive officer’s compensation, (ii) the recommendations of management, (iii) the relative compensation among our executive officers, and (iv) each executive officer’s responsibilities, knowledge, experience, skills, contributions, and performance and the prevailing market conditions.
Role of Advisory Votes on NEO Compensation
We have held a vote to approve, on an advisory or non-binding basis, the compensation of our NEOs (commonly referred to as a “say-on-pay” vote) at each of our previous annual meetings in 2022 and 2023. Our stockholders have approved the compensation of our NEOs, with approximately 99% of stockholder votes cast at each meeting in favor of our say-on-pay resolution. In designing our executive compensation program, our compensation committee has considered the results of these say-on-pay votes and accordingly has maintained our general approach to our executive compensation program.
Compensation Review Cycle
Our annual performance and compensation review cycle, including the annual review of executive officer compensation by our compensation committee as described above, is typically completed during the second quarter of our fiscal year and this was the case during 2022.2023. Given this timing, annual adjustments to compensation are effective for the second half of the fiscal year and typically continue through the first half of the following year unless the compensation committee determines that an interim adjustment is appropriate. As a result, certain of the salary and cash incentive compensation amounts for our NEOs in the first half of 20222023 differ from those in second half of the fiscal year to reflect adjustments made as part of the 20222023 review cycle, as described in further detail below in “—Elements of Compensation.
20222023 Compensation Decisions
In February 2022, taking into account the factors described above in “—Process for Determining Compensation,” the compensation committee reviewed and adjusted the compensation packages of Mr. O’Donnell and Mr. Townsend in connection with the expansion of the scope of their respective positions, as follows:
In connection with Mr. O’Donnell’s promotion to CR/SO in January 2022,2023, the compensation committee approved a new compensation package forspot bonus of $100,000 to Mr. O’Donnell effective January 1,in recognition of the strong performance and continued growth of our Platform+ business during 2022 (the “2022 O’Donnell Compensation Package”), which was reflecteddespite challenging market conditions and to provide an additional retention incentive in an amended and restated confirmatory employment letter entered into between us and Mr. O’Donnell on February 14, 2022 (the “O’Donnell Restated Employment Letter”). In determining his new compensation package, the compensation committee considered factors including market data on the compensationlight of similar executives provided by Compensia and industryintense competition for executives with Mr. O’Donnell’s expertise. Prior to his promotion to CR/SO, Mr. O’Donnell received a cash commission opportunity for each quarter based on our Platform+ net revenue during such quarter (the “Cash Incentive Plan”). The 2022 O’Donnell Compensation Package no longer included the Cash Incentive Plan, but instead provided for $1,060,000 in cash compensation (including base salary ($530,000) and discretionary target cash bonuses ($530,000) paid out on an annual and quarterly basis), $1,500,000 in annual time-based equity awards (consisting of 50% in grant date fair value of each of RSUs and stock options), and a performance-based stock option (tied to Platform+ net revenue growth targets for 2022 through 2025). The shift from the Cash Incentive Plan to this updated bonus structure reflected a desire to align Mr. O’Donnell’s compensation structure with our other executive officers. After the compensation committee’s approval of the 2022 O’Donnell Compensation Package in February 2022, the performance-based stock option was issued by the board of directors in March 2022, and the annual time-based equity awards were issued by the compensation committee in May 2022.
In connection with the expansion of Mr. Townsend’s role to include our human resources function, the compensation committee increased Mr. Townsend’s base salary and aggregate target cash bonus opportunity by 15% compared to the amounts in effect at the end of 2021.
In May 2022,June 2023, the compensation committee conducted its annual compensation review and made decisions for our continuing NEOs, as set forth below. In making these decisions, the compensation committee considered, among other factors, pay levels of our NEOs relative to peers and the overall competitive employment market, the performance of each continuing NEO, and the intense competition for experienced leadership in our industry, in addition to the factors described above in “—Process for Determining Compensation.” In light of these factors, as well as the recommendations of our CEO, CFO, COO and our human resources function, our compensation committee made the following decisions with respect to Messrs. Wang, Townsend and Wong’sour NEOs’ compensation:
-34-

We increased the base salaries of Messrs. Wang, Townsend, Wong and WongO’Donnell by approximately 19%2%, 2%, 3% and 5%11%, respectively, from their base salaries as previously in-effect.
We increased the aggregate target cash bonus opportunities for Messrs. Wang, Townsend, Wong and WongO’Donnell by approximately 15%6%, 2%6%, 5% and 5%11%, respectively, compared tofrom their aggregate target cash bonus opportunities as previously in-effect.
We maintained a mix ofintroduced performance-based RSUs (“PSUs”) to our equity incentive program for our executive officers, with each NEO’s annual equity awards at approximately 50% RSUsaward for 2023 consisting of a time-based RSU award and 50% stock options by grant date fair value fora performance‑based RSU (“PSU”) award that each covered the same target number of Messrs. Wang, Wong and Townsend, each with time-based vesting, consistent with the annual equity awards issued to them in 2021.shares of our Class A common stock.
In July 2022, management and the members ofAugust 2023, our compensation committee conducted another review of executive compensationapproved updated change in light of market conditions, including inflationary pressure, recessionary fearscontrol and potential reductions in consumer and advertising spending that we believed could negatively impact our business during the remainder of 2022. In light of this ongoing review, we did not implement the salary increases approved in May during the month of July while a final determination was made. As a result of this review, and taking into account the factors described above in “—Process for Determining Compensation,” in August 2022, the compensation committee made adjustments to the compensation packages of our NEOs, retroactively effective as of July 1, 2022, as follows:
We decreased Messrs. Townsend and Wong’s base salaries by 8% and 3%, respectively, from the amounts approved in May 2022, and we increased Mr. O’Donnell’s base salary by 2%, from the amount approved in February 2022.
We decreased the aggregate target cash bonus opportunities for Messrs. Wang and Wong by 13% and 2%, respectively, from the amounts approved in May 2022, and we increased the aggregate target cash bonus opportunitiesseverance agreements for Messrs. Townsend and O’Donnell by 6%to provide them the same change in control and 2%, respectively, fromseverance benefits as Messrs. Wang and Wong.
In November 2023, we adopted a clawback policy in accordance with SEC and NYSE requirements under the amounts approved in May 2022Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and February 2022, respectively.Consumer Protection Act.
-37-

We modified the annual equity awards of Messrs. Townsend and Wong to decrease the aggregate value of such awards by 34% and 33%, respectively, from the value of the awards approved in May 2022.
Although the overall direction of these changes was to reduce executive compensation levels in light of the economic conditions described above, Mr. O’Donnell received a modest increase in his base salary and bonus in recognition of the strong performance of our Platform+ business under his leadership and to incentivize retention given the high level of competition for executives with his skill set and Mr. Townsend received an increase in his bonus to partially offset the decrease in his base salary such that more of his compensation would be discretionary in light of market conditions.
Elements of Compensation
For the year ended December 31, 2022,2023, our executive compensation program consisted of the following components:
Base salary
Cash incentive compensation
Equity-based compensation
Retirement savings (401(k)) plan
Health and welfare benefits
Severance and change in control benefits
Certain limited perquisites and other personal benefits
We combine these elements to formulate compensation packages that provide competitive pay, and further our compensation goals of retention, alignment of executive and stockholder interests and linking pay with performance.
-35-

Base Salary
Our compensation philosophy with respect to base salaries is designed to keep base salaries aligned with our low margin, variable profit business model. Base salaries represent the fixed portion of our NEOs’ compensation and are initially set at the time of an NEO’s hire. In reviewing and determining base salary levels, our compensation committee analyzes base salary information for similar positions and titles at companies in our compensation peer group and the survey data, and also considers input from our management team, as described above in “—Process for Determining Compensation.
20222023 Base Salary
As further described in “20222023 Compensation Decisions,” in 2022,2023, the compensation committee approved certain changes to Messrs. Townsend, Wong and O’Donnell’seach of our named executive officers’ base salaries in February 2022, May 2022 and August 2022. The compensation committee did not determine to make any adjustment to Mr. Wang’s base salary of $975,000 in 2022.June 2023.

In February 2022, the compensation committee approved, effective January 1, 2022, (i) the 2022 O’Donnell Compensation Package, which provided for a base salary of $530,000 for Mr. O’Donnell, and (ii) an increase to Mr. Townsend’s base salary from $450,000 to $517,500. In May 2022, the compensation committee approved, effective July 1, 2022, an increase to Mr. Townsend’s base salary from $517,500 to $618,000 and (ii) an increase to Mr. Wong’s base salary from $925,000 to $971,000. As described above in “—2022 Compensation Decisions,” the increases approved in May 2022 were superseded by those approved in August 2022 and were never implemented. The changes to the base salaries of Messrs. Wang, Townsend, Wong and O’Donnell made by the compensation committee in August 2022, effective as of July 1, 2022,June 2023, are set forth in the table below. The base salary changes were effective as of July 1, 2023 for Messrs. Wang, Townsend and Wong and as of April 2, 2023 for Mr. O’Donnell. The larger increase and earlier effective date for Mr. O’Donnell’s salary and aggregate target cash bonus opportunity increases were made to incentivize retention given high competition for executives with his skill set and to reward strong performance in 2022 and the beginning of 2023. As a result, the base salaries in effect for 20222023 for our NEOs were as follows:

Ben WongBen Wong$925,000 $943,500 
Michael O’DonnellMichael O’Donnell$530,000 $540,600 
Cash Incentive Compensation
Our NEOs are eligible to earn discretionary quarterly and annual cash bonus payments. We utilize cash incentive compensation to reward our NEOs and other employees for achieving, on a discretionary “look back” basis, corporate and individual performance objectives. As described above, target bonuses are generally compared to our peer companies for overall reasonableness. The purpose of these bonus payments is to have a significant portion of our NEOs’ annual compensation reflect our performance. We believe that the quarterly and annual bonus payments provide a direct and
-38-

measurable way to align our NEOs’ goals with our corporate objectives of linking pay with performance, increasing revenue and profit, and creating stockholder value.
20222023 Cash Incentive Compensation
In 2022,2023, the compensation committee set target bonus opportunities for each NEO based on the factors described above in the section of this Compensation Discussion and Analysis titled “—Process for Determining Compensation.” Target bonus opportunities represent a guideline for the aggregate target cash amount to be received by an NEO and consist of a portion that was evaluated and paid out on a quarterly basis and a portion that was evaluated and paid out on an annual basis. Each NEO was eligible to earn a target bonus payment for each quarter and for the full fiscal year in an amount approved by our compensation committee, in consideration of the achievement of corporate goals and individual performance objectives. Bonuses are not earned until paid and eligibility to receive a bonus is contingent upon the NEO being continuously employed by us through the bonus payment date.
We do not disclose the corporate or individual performance goals for our 20222023 cash incentive compensation program. While the overall amount of cash incentive compensation is linked to corporate and individual performance, the evaluation of goal achievement at the end of each quarter and the fiscal year is at the discretion of the compensation committee based on recommendations from our CEO, COO, CFO and human resources function. The compensation committee has the discretion to adjust any amount ultimately paid after good faith consideration of NEO performance, overall company
-36-

performance, market conditions and cash availability. We also do not have a formally adopted plan document for the 20222023 cash incentive program, although the compensation committee approved the quarterly and annual target bonus opportunities. As a result, we view any payments under our annual cash incentive program as discretionary bonuses as opposed to non-equity incentive plan compensation.
In February 2022, the compensation committee approved, effective January 1, 2022:
the 2022 O’Donnell Compensation Package, which provided for an aggregate target cash bonus opportunity of $530,000 for Mr. O’Donnell (with $265,000 to be paid on a quarterly basis ($66,250 each quarter), and $265,000 to be paid on an annual basis), and
an increase to Mr. Townsend’s aggregate target cash bonus opportunity from $400,000 to $460,000 (with $230,000 to be paid out on a quarterly basis ($57,500 each quarter), and $230,000 to be paid out on an annual basis).
In May 2022,June 2023, the compensation committee approved, effective July 1, 2022:2023:
an increase to Mr. Wang’s aggregate target cash bonus opportunity from $775,000 to $888,000$825,000 (with $444,000$400,000 to be paid out on a quarterly basis ($111,000100,000 each quarter), and $444,000$425,000 to be paid out on an annual basis),
an increase to Mr. Townsend’s aggregate target cash bonus opportunity from $460,000$500,000 to $470,000$532,000 (with $235,000$266,000 to be paid out on a quarterly basis ($58,75066,500 each quarter), and $235,000 to be paid out on an annual basis), and
an increase to Mr. Wong’s aggregate target cash bonus opportunity from $720,000 to $756,000 (with $378,000 to be paid out on a quarterly basis ($94,500 each quarter), and $378,000 to be paid out on an annual basis).
In August 2022, the compensation committee approved, effective July 1, 2022:
a decrease to Mr. Wang’s aggregate target cash bonus opportunity from $888,000 to $775,000 (with $400,000 to be paid out on a quarterly basis ($100,000 each quarter), and $375,000$266,000 to be paid out on an annual basis),
an increase to Mr. Townsend’s aggregate target cash bonus opportunity from $470,000 to $500,000 (with $250,000 to be paid out on a quarterly basis ($62,500 each quarter), and $250,000 to be paid out on an annual basis),
a decrease to Mr. Wong’s aggregate target cash bonus opportunity from $756,000$740,000 to $740,000 (with$780,000 (with $400,000 to be paid out on a quarterly basis ($100,000 each quarter), and $340,000$380,000 to be paid out on an annual basis), and; and
an increase to Mr. O’Donnell’s aggregate target cash bonus opportunity from $530,000$540,600 to $540,600$600,000 (with $270,300$300,000 to be paid out on a quarterly basis ($67,57575,000 each quarter), and $270,300$300,000 to be paid out on an annual basis).

20222023 Bonus Payments.
For 2022,2023, our compensation committee determined actual bonus amounts at the end of each quarter and at the end of the fiscal year in its discretion with reference to a variety of corporate and individual goals. When determining the quarterly and annual payments during 2022,2023, the compensation committee assessed performance relative to corporate goals, including a review of certain financial and operational metrics and execution against the established operating plan. Individual performance assessments were based on the NEO’s scope of responsibility and were closely related to the corporate goals for 2022.2023.
In determining actual quarterly bonus amounts for each NEO, after each quarter-end, our management reviewed our company’s performance against our corporate goals as well as the individual’s performance for the most recently completed quarter. Then, our management made a recommendation to our compensation committee regarding the NEO’s proposed quarterly bonus payment, taking into account the NEO’s target bonus opportunity. After reviewing management’s recommendations alongside our and the individual’s quarterly performance the compensation committee approved each NEO’s quarterly bonus payment. The compensation committee retained the discretion to reduce quarterly cash bonuses if it determined our or the individual’s performance was below expectations. After completing this assessment, for each quarter in 2022,2023, the compensation committee determined that each NEO would receive 100% of such NEO’s target cash bonus opportunity.
At the completion of 2022,2023, in addition to payment of the quarterly cash bonuses each NEO was eligible to receive the annual portion of such NEO’s target bonus opportunity. Similar to the review process for quarterly awards, our management reviewed our company’s performance against our corporate goals as well as the individual’s performance for 2022.2023. Then, our management made a recommendation to our compensation committee regarding the NEO’s proposed annual bonus payment, taking into account the NEO’s target bonus opportunity. The compensation committee retained the authority to award a discretionary bonus amount in excess of the target bonus opportunity for an NEO for the year in the case of exceptional performance. The compensation committee also had the discretion to award up to, or in excess of, an NEO’s aggregate target bonus opportunity for 20222023 despite the fact that our company’s performance during one or more of the preceding quarters was below expectations. After reviewing management’s recommendations alongside our and the individual’s performance for 2022,2023, the compensation committee approved the final annual bonus payments for all of our NEOs, deciding to pay (i) Mr. Wang 153%each of the annual portion of his target cash bonus opportunity; (ii) Mr. Townsend 120% of the annual portion of his target cash bonus opportunity; (iii) Mr. Wong 159% of the annual portion of his target cash bonus opportunity; and (iv) Mr. O’Donnell 118%our named executive officers 185% of the annual portion of his target cash bonus opportunity. The decision to pay our NEOs annual bonuses above their targets was based on factors including the company’s strong performance and continued growth of our Platform+ business and our NEOs’ individual performances, including their roles in mitigating the effects of challenging market conditions and, in part, to offset the earlier reductions in compensation made in August, as described in the section of this Compensation Discussion and Analysis titled “—2022 Compensation Decisions” after review of the company’s actual performance in 2022.conditions.

Other Cash Compensation
In February 2022, the compensation committee approved a spot bonus of $32,200 to Mr. Townsend in connection with the expansion of Mr. Townsend’s role to include our human resources function. In addition, in January 2023, the compensation committee approved a spot bonus of $100,000 to Mr. O’Donnell in recognition of the strong performance and continued growth of our Platform+ business during 2022 despite challenging market conditions and to provide an additional retention incentive in light of intense competition for executives with Mr. O’Donnell’s expertise.

Equity Incentive Program
Our compensation program includes equity incentives that have been designed to reward our employees for the Company’s long-term financial performance and enhancement of stockholder value through stock price appreciation, to attract, motivate and encourage retention of employees, to align the interests of our employees with the creation of stockholder value by creating long-term employee interest and an “ownership mentality” in our growth and stock price value, so that their efforts reflect the perspective of our stockholders and promote our long-term success. We have typically granted equity awards to our executive officers in connection with our annual performance and compensation review cycle. We have not granted, nor do we intend to grant, equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information that is likely to result in changes to the price of our common stock, such as a significant positive or negative earnings announcement. Similarly, we have not timed, nor do we intend to time, the release of material nonpublic information based on equity award grant dates.
20222023 Annual Equity Awards
In May 2022,June 2023, in connection with the compensation committee’s annual review of executive officer compensation, the compensation committee approved the issuance of annual equity awards (each, an “2022a “2023 Annual Equity Award”) to our NEOs under our Amended and Restated 2017 Incentive Award Plan (the “2017 Plan”). Fifty-percent of eachEach NEO’s 20222023 Annual Equity Award was in the form of time-based RSUs and PSUs, with each covering 50% of the remaining 50% was intarget number of shares subject to the form of a time-based stock option.NEO’s 2023 Annual Equity Award. The compensation committee decided to grant our NEOs an equally weighted mix of time-based RSUs and stock optionsPSUs to incentivize themour NEOs to create additional stockholder value (since the stock options only deliver value if our stock price increases)Company’s performance will determine the number of PSUs that become eligible to vest, as discussed further below), while still providing themour NEOs with a floor of certain value delivered (since the time-based RSUs would never be out of the money)will vest based solely on our NEOs’ continued service). In determining the size of these awards, we reviewed the factors described above in the section of this Compensation Discussion and Analysis titled “—Process for Determining Compensation.Twenty-five percent of the shares subject to each time-based RSU and stock option award vest on May 18, 20232024 and each one-year anniversary thereafter, subject to the NEO continuing as a service provider through each such date.
For each PSU award, a number of PSUs may become eligible to vest based on how our total shareholder return (“TSR”) compares to the TSRs of the indexed companies during a one-year performance period that began on June 2, 2023. The indexed companies are the companies listed below whose securities are actively traded on a nationally recognized stock exchange both (i) as of the beginning of the performance period and (ii) as of the end of the performance period.

DoubleVerify Holdings, Inc.Magnite, Inc.Sonos Inc.
* Roku, Inc. is given 3 times weight (i.e., treated as if it is three companies on a list of 29 companies, rather than one company on a list of 27 companies).
For purposes of calculating the TSR of each company, the starting price will be the average closing price of our Class A common stock or the indexed company’s common stock (as applicable) for the period of 30-trading days ending on the last trading day before the beginning of the performance period, and the ending price will be the average closing price of our Class A common stock or the indexed company’s common stock (as applicable) for the period of 30-trading days ending on the last trading day of the performance period.
The number of PSUs that will become eligible to vest (“eligible PSUs”) will be equal to (i) 3.333% of the target number of PSUs if our TSR ranks at the 11th percentile, (ii) 50% of the target number of PSUs if our TSR ranks at the 25th percentile, (iii) 100% of the target number of PSUs if our TSR ranks at the 50th percentile, or (ii) 200% of the target number of PSUs if our TSR ranks at or above the 75th percentile. If our TSR ranks between the 11th and 75th percentiles, the number of eligible PSUs will be determined through straight-line interpolation between the applicable percentages described above. However, if our TSR is negative, the number of eligible PSUs will be capped at 100% of the target number of PSUs. If our TSR ranks below the 11th percentile, none of the PSUs will become eligible PSUs.
-41-

However, if a “change in control” (as defined in the 2017 Plan) occurs before the last day of the performance period, then the performance period will be shortened to end on a date before the change in control, and the number of eligible PSUs will be determined based on achievement of the relative TSR performance goal during the shortened performance period, with our ending price based on the price payable for a share of our Class A common stock in connection with the change in control.
Any eligible PSUs will be subject to a time-based vesting schedule under which 25% of the eligible PSUs will vest on the first trading day on or after June 18 of each year beginning on the first trading day on or after June 18, 2024, subject to the NEO continuing as a service provider through each such date.
The compensation committee also approved the grant of dividend equivalents in tandem with 2022the time-based RSUs granted as part of the 2023 Annual Equity Awards. The dividend equivalents provide these NEOs the right to receive the equivalent value of any dividends on shares of Class A common stock with payment dates during the period between the date the time-based RSU awards were granted and the date the awards vest are exercised, or expire.
In August 2022, after further consideration of economic conditions, as further described above in “—2022 Compensation Decisions,” the compensation committee approved a partial cancellation of each of the 2022The 2023 Annual Equity Awards granted to Messrs. Townsend and Wong, resulting in a reduction in the sizes of those awards, (the “Partial Cancellation”).

(1)These amounts reflect the grant date fair value of the 20222023 Annual Equity Awards, (or the portions thereof that were not canceled through the Partial Cancellation, as applicable), calculated on the basis of the fair market value of the underlying shares of our Class A common stock on the grant date in accordance with ASC Topic 718. The actual value that a named executive officer will realize on each award will depend on the price per share of our shares of Class A common stock at the time shares underlying the awards are sold. Accordingly, these amounts do not necessarily correspond to the actual value recognized or that may be recognized by our named executive officers. The amounts reported for the time-based RSUs were calculated using the closing price of our Class A common stock on the date of grant. The Company has valued the corresponding dividend equivalents using an option-pricing model with a no dividend payment assumption. The amounts reported for the PSUs were estimated using a Monte-Carlo simulation model covering the one-year performance period. For a discussion of valuation assumptions, see the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2022.2023.
Vesting of Mr. O’Donnell’s Performance Stock Options
Mr. O’Donnell has certain performance-based stock options, as further described below, which were subject to vesting based, in part, on our Platform+ net revenue for 2023. Our Platform+ net revenue for 2023 was approximately $598.2 million compared to $477.9 million in 2022, which resulted in Platform+ net revenue growth of 25% for 2023. As a result, portions of these options vested upon certification of the satisfaction of certain performance conditions by the compensation committee in February 2024.

Vesting of Mr. O’Donnell’s Performance Stock Options
Our Platform+ net revenue for 2022 was approximately $477.9 million compared to $308.7 million in 2021, which resulted in Platform+ net revenue growth of 55% for 2022. As a result, portions of both the 2022 O’Donnell PSO and the 2020 O’Donnell PSO (as defined below) vested upon certification of the satisfaction of certain performance conditions by the compensation committee in January 2023.
Vesting of 2022 O’Donnell PSO. In January 2023,February 2024, the compensation committee certified the satisfaction of performance condition (a), but not (b), under the 2022 O’Donnell PSO as described above, resulting in the vesting of 30,000 of the 60,000 shares that were eligible to vest based on 20222023 Platform+ net revenue growth.
Vesting of 2020 O’Donnell PSO. In 2020, Mr. O’Donnell was granted a stock option to purchase 360,000 shares of our Class A common stock that vests when both a performance-based requirement and a liquidity event requirement have been satisfied (the “2020 O’Donnell PSO”). The liquidity event requirement was satisfied by the completion of our IPO. The performance-based requirement is satisfied based on our annual Platform+ net revenue growth in each of 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024, subject to his continued service through each vesting date, as follows:

Limited Perquisites

We do not view perquisites or other personal benefits as a significant component of our executive compensation program. Accordingly, we do not provide significant perquisites or other personal benefits to our named executive officers except as generally made available to our employees or in certain other limited circumstances. In 2022,2023, we reimbursed Mr. O’Donnell for private club membership dues and related incidentals, which the compensation committee determined were reasonable because (1) they would provide significant potential business and economic benefits to us through access to the facilities of the club for meetings and other gatherings pertaining to our business and to entertain potential and existing customers and (2) membership in the club is limited to individuals and not available directly for businesses or entities. In addition, we reimbursed Mr. Wang for expenses related to the use of an apartment owned by Mr. Wang near our Irvine headquarters by visiting service providers, which the compensation committee determined was reasonable because in using the apartment during visits, the visitors are in close proximity to Mr. Wang for better collaboration, have the use of an in-residence office and the cost to the company is similar to comparable hotels near our headquarters. In addition, each of our named executive officers received contributions to their 401(k) savings plans consistent with the matching program provided to all eligible employees as described below in the section titled “Other Benefits.Other than as described above, our named executive officers did not receive perquisites or other personal benefits that were, in the aggregate, greater than $10,000 per individual during 2022.2023.

Employment Agreements
We have entered into a confirmatory employment letter with each of our NEOs, which superseded any existing employment agreement or employment offer letter between the NEO and us. In addition, in connection with Mr.
-41-

O’Donnell’s promotion to CR/SO, we entered into the O’Donnell Restated Employment Letter, reflecting his new title and the changes to his base salary and bonus compensation in connection with his promotion, as described in “—Base Salary” and “—Cash Incentive Compensation” above. Each NEO’s confirmatory employment letter has no specific term and provides that the NEO is an at-will employee.
Severance and Change in Control Benefits
We have entered into change in control and severance agreements with our NEOs, which superseded any prior agreement or arrangement the NEOs may have had with us that provided for severance and/or change in control payments or benefits. In August 2023, our compensation committee completed a review of the change in control and severance benefits offered to our senior level employees, and in order to provide for greater consistency among our NEOs, our compensation committee approved updated change in control and severance agreements with Messrs. Townsend and O’Donnell to provide them the same benefits as Messrs. Wang and Wong.The severance and/or change in control benefits under these employment agreements and change in control and severance agreements are described below under “—Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.”
Other Benefits
Our NEOs are eligible to participate in our standard benefit plans (which include health insurance, life and disability insurance and our 401(k) plan) on the same terms as all other U.S.-based employees. Under the 401(k) plan, eligible employees may elect to defer a portion of their compensation, within the limits prescribed by the Code, on a pre-tax or after-tax (Roth) basis, through contributions to the 401(k) plan. The 401(k) plan is intended to qualify under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code. As a tax-qualified retirement plan, pre-tax contributions to the 401(k) plan and earnings on those pre-tax contributions are not taxable to the employees until distributed from the 401(k) plan, and earnings on Roth contributions are not taxable when distributed from the 401(k) plan. In 20222023 we provided matching contributions to the 401(k) plan accounts of all eligible employees. The amount of these matching contributions was (i) until July 2022, up to 50% of the first 4% of eligible compensation, and (ii) beginning in July 2022, up to 100% of the first 4% of eligible compensation. In addition, we subsidized a portion of each employee’s insurance premiums in 2022.2023.

Clawback Policy
In November 2023, we adopted a clawback policy in accordance with SEC and NYSE requirements under the Dodd‑Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.This policy provides for the non-discretionary recovery of excess incentive-based compensation from current and former executive officers in the event of an accounting restatement, whether or not the executive officer was at fault for the restatement, in accordance with SEC and NYSE requirements.

Tax and Accounting Considerations
Section 162(m) of the Code
Generally, Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (referred to as the Code) disallows a tax deduction for any publicly held corporation for individual compensation exceeding $1.0 million in any taxable year for its chief executive officer and certain other highly compensated current and former executive officers. Our compensation committee, in approving the amount and form of compensation for our NEOs, considers all elements of the cost to our company of providing compensation to our executive officers, including the potential impact of Section 162(m). However, our compensation committee may, in its judgment, authorize compensation payments that exceed the deductibility limit imposed by Section 162(m) when it believes that such payments are appropriate. The amount of incremental income tax associated with the deduction lost for 20222023 as a result of Section 162(m) was approximately $4.6$3.5 million.
Section 409A of the Code
Section 409A of the Code requires that “nonqualified deferred compensation” be deferred and paid under plans or arrangements that satisfy the requirements of the statute with respect to the timing of deferral elections, timing of payments and certain other matters. Failure to satisfy these requirements can expose employees and other service providers to accelerated income tax liabilities and penalty taxes and interest on their vested compensation under such plans.
-44-

Accordingly, we generally intend to design and administer our compensation and benefits plans and arrangements for all of our employees and other service providers, including our NEOs, with the intent that they are either exempt from, or satisfy the requirements of, Section 409A.
Accounting Standards
ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (ASC Topic 718) requires us to recognize an expense for the fair value of equity-based compensation awards. Grants of equity awards under our equity incentive award plans are accounted for under ASC Topic 718. Our compensation committee has regularly considered, the accounting implications of significant compensation decisions, especially in connection with decisions that relate to our equity incentive award plans and programs. As accounting standards change, we may revise certain programs to appropriately align accounting expenses of our equity awards with our overall executive compensation philosophy and objectives.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT
The compensation committee has reviewed and discussed with management the Compensation Discussion and Analysis provided above. Based on its review and discussions, the compensation committee recommended to the board of directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement.
Respectfully submitted by the members of the compensation committee of the board of directors:
David Russell (Chair)
Vicky L. Free
The information contained in this report shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material” or “filed” with the SEC or subject to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, except to the extent that VIZIO specifically requests that the information be treated as soliciting material or incorporates it by reference into a document filed under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.
COMPENSATION RISK ASSESSMENT
Our management team plays a role in evaluating and mitigating any risk that may exist relating to our compensation plans, practices and policies for all employees, including our NEOs. In designing and recommending compensation programs, our management considers whether our compensation plans and practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our business or that may encourage employees to take unnecessary risk that could threaten our business. No such plans or practices have been identified. Such considerations include, among other things, a review of our cash and equity incentive-based compensation plans to ensure that they are aligned with our performance goals and the overall compensation to ensure an appropriate balance between fixed and variable pay components and between short- and long-term incentives.
Our compensation committee, with the assistance of Compensia, assesses and considers potential risks when reviewing and approving our compensation plans, practices and policies for all employees, including our NEOs, and considers our ongoing programs at least annually for practices and policies that could encourage excessive risk-taking. Based upon its assessment, the compensation committee believes that any risks arising from our compensation plans, practices and policies do not create disproportionate incentives for our employees to take risks that could have a material adverse effect on us in the future.

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control
Change in Control and Severance Agreements
In March 2021, we entered into change in control and severance agreements with each of our NEOs, pursuant to which our NEOs and certain other key employees are eligible to receive certain severance and change in control benefits,benefits. The terms of these agreements are as described below. Each change in control and severance agreement superseded any prior agreement or arrangement the NEO may have had with us that provided for severance and/or change in control payments or benefits.
As described above in “—Compensation Discussion & Analysis—Elements of Compensation——Severance and Change in Control Benefits,” we amended the agreements for Messrs. Townsend and O’Donnell in August 2023 to provide them the same severance and change in control benefits as Messrs. Wang and Wong.
Qualifying Termination Outside Change-in-Control Period. If an NEO’s employment is terminated outside the period beginning three months before a change in control and ending 18 months following that change in control (the “Change-in-Control Period”) either (1) by VIZIO without “cause” (excluding by reason of death or disability) or (2) by the NEO for

If any of the amounts provided for under these change in control and severance agreements or otherwise payable to our NEOs would constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code and could be subject to the related excise tax, the NEO would be entitled to receive either full payment of benefits under his or her change in control or severance agreement or such lesser amount which would result in no portion of the benefits being subject to the excise tax, whichever results in the greater amount of after-tax benefits to the NEO. The change in control and severance agreements do not require us to provide any tax gross-up payments.
Amount of Payments Upon Termination at 20222023 Year-End
The following table sets forth information regarding potential payments that would have been provided to each of our NEOs who were employed with us through December 31, 20222023 under each of the circumstances specified below if he or she had terminated employment with VIZIO effective December 31, 2022.2023. Amounts shown do not include (i) accrued but unpaid salary through the date of termination and (ii) other benefits earned or accrued by the NEO during his employment that are available to all salaried employees, such as accrued vacation.

Financial Performance Measures
As described in greater detail in “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the Company’s executive compensation program seeks to ensure a performance-based delivery of pay that aligns our NEOs’ rewards with our corporate strategies, business and financial objectives and the long-term interests of our stockholders. The most important financial performance measuremeasures used by the Company to link executive compensation actually paid to the Company’s NEOs, for the most recently completed fiscal year, to the Company’s performance iswere as follows:

Financial Performance Measures
Platform+ Net Revenue Growth
Relative Total Shareholder Return
CEO PAY RATIO

SEC rules require us to provide information regarding the relationship between the annual total compensation of Mr. Wang, our CEO, and the annual total compensation of our median employee.

Identification of Median Employee

Under the SEC rules, we are required to identify a median employee only once every three years, as long as there has been no change in our employee population or employee compensation arrangements that we reasonably believe would result in a significant change to our pay ratio disclosure. We believe there has been no change to our employee population or employee compensation arrangements that would result in a significant change in our pay ratio since fiscal year 2022. However, the median employee previously identified was no longer employed by VIZIO as of December 31, 2023. Accordingly, as permitted under SEC rules, we replaced the median employee identified for our initial CEO pay ratio disclosure relating to fiscal year 2022 with an employee whose compensation is substantially similar.

To identify our median employee for purposes of our initial CEO pay ratio disclosure relating to the year ended December 31, 2022, we first identified all individuals employed by us other than Mr. Wang who were employees onas of December 31, 2022, whether employed on a full-time or part-time basis. We did not have any temporary or seasonal employees employed as of December 31, 2022. For each employee in this population, we then aggregated (i) cash compensation earned in 2022,, including bonuses, and (ii) the promised value of any equity awards granted during 2022 or that had been promised to the employee in 2022 and were actually granted in 2023.2023. All of our cash compensation in this calculation was paid in U.S. dollars. The promised values of our equity grants arewere the amounts communicated to employees at the time of their hire or promotion, which iswas then used by us to calculate the size of their award. This amount may vary from the award’s grant date fair value. Adjustments were made to annualize the compensation of permanent employees who were not employed by us for the entire year.

We had an even number of employees other than Mr. Wang as of December 31, 2022, so two employees were at the median of the employee population. Of these employees, one was on leave for portions of 2022 and 2023, so we selected the other employee as our median employee.

Methodology and Pay Ratio

After identifyingWe calculated the new median employee, we calculated that employee’s total compensation for 20222023 using the same methodology we used for our named executive officers as set forth in the “Summary Compensation Table” above. For 2022,2023, the annual total compensation of our median employee was $165,054.$185,847. We note that the compensation for the median employee included two annual equity grants during 2023 because the employee’s promised annual equity award for 2022 was granted in 2023, which was typical for our employee population during 2023. The total annual compensation reported in the “Summary Compensation Table” for our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Wang, was $9,743,646.$9,151,825. Therefore, our CEO Pay Ratio for 20222023 is approximately 59:49:1.

This information is being provided for compliance purposes and is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules, based on our internal records and the methodology described above. The SEC rules for identifying the median compensated employee allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices. Accordingly, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies have different employee populations and compensation practices and may use different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios. Neither the compensation committee nor management of the company used the CEO Pay Ratio measure in making compensation decisions.

Policies and Procedures for Related Person Transactions
Our audit committee, in accordance with its charter, has the primary responsibility for reviewing and overseeing all transactions with related persons.
We have a formal written policy providing that all “related party transactions,” which are transactions between us and related persons in which the aggregate amount involved exceeds or may be expected to exceed $120,000 and in which a related person has or will have a direct or indirect material interest, must be reviewed and approved or ratified by the audit committee. This policy provides that a related person is defined as a director, executive officer, nominee for director or beneficial owner of more than 5% of our Class A common stock or Class B common stock, in each case since the beginning of the most recently completed year, and any of their immediate family members.
Under this policy, our audit committee will review the material facts of all related party transactions and either approve, ratify or disapprove of the entry into the transaction. In determining whether to approve or ratify any such transaction, our audit committee will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, whether the transaction would affect the independence of any director, whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party, and the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction. The policy grants standing pre-approval of certain transactions, including (i) executive compensation arrangements with named executive officers and certain compensation arrangements with other executive officers, (ii) director compensation arrangements reportable on our Annual Report on Form 10-K or proxy statement, (iii) transactions with another company at which a related person’s only relationship is as an employee (other than an executive officer), director, or beneficial owner of less than 10% of that company’s shares, (iv) transactions where a related party’s interest arises solely from the ownership of our stock and all holders of our stock received the same benefit on a pro rata basis, (v) charitable contributions, grants, endowments or pledges by us to a charitable organization, foundation, or university where the related person’s only relationship is as an employee (other than an executive officer), or director, if the aggregate amount involved does not exceed the lesser of $1,000,000 or 2% of the charitable organization’s total annual receipts, (vi) any transaction available to all U.S. employees generally, and (vii) other transactions where disclosure of such transaction would not be required pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K. In addition, it is our policy that directors interested in a related person transaction will recuse themselves from any discussion or vote on a related person transaction in which they may have an interest.

If a stockholder who has notified us of his, her or its intention to present a proposal at an annual meeting of stockholders does not appear to present his, her or its proposal at such annual meeting, then we are not required to present the proposal for a vote at such annual meeting.
Recommendation and Nomination of Director Candidates
Holders of our common stock may recommend director candidates for consideration by our nominating and corporate governance committee. Any such recommendations should include the nominee’s name and qualifications for membership on our board of directors and should be directed to our General Counsel at the address set forth above under “—Stockholder Proposals.” For additional information regarding stockholder recommendations for director candidates, see the section titled “Board of Directors and Corporate Governance—Stockholder Recommendations and Nominations to our Board of Directors.”
In addition, our amended and restated bylaws permit stockholders to nominate directors for election at an annual meeting of stockholders. In no event may a stockholder provide notice with respect to a greater number of director candidates than there are director seats subject to election by stockholders at the annual meeting. To nominate a director, the stockholder must provide the information required by our amended and restated bylaws. In addition, the stockholder must give timely notice to our Secretary in accordance with our amended and restated bylaws, which, in general, require that the notice be received by our Secretary within the time periods described above under the section titled “—Stockholder Proposals” for stockholder proposals that are not intended to be included in a proxy statement.
