FAQ

What insider transaction did Core Laboratories (CLB) report for its SVP?

Core Laboratories granted SVP Gwendolyn Gresham 33,490 performance shares on February 12, 2026 at an exercise price of $0. This is an equity incentive award, not an open-market purchase or sale of existing Core Laboratories shares by the executive.

How do the 33,490 Core Laboratories (CLB) performance shares vest?

The 33,490 performance shares vest, if at all, on December 31, 2028 after a three-year performance period. Vesting depends on Core Laboratories’ Return on Invested Capital ranking versus the Bloomberg Peer Group, as determined by the Compensation Committee at the end of the performance period.

What performance levels affect Core Laboratories (CLB) SVP performance share payout?

The award vests at 50% if Core Laboratories is in the top 35th percentile of ROIC, 100% at the top 55th percentile, and 175% at or above the 85th percentile, all measured against the Bloomberg Peer Group after the three-year performance period ends.

Is there a total shareholder return modifier on the Core Laboratories (CLB) award?

Yes. Any portion of the performance shares that would vest above 100% of the target, up to the 175% maximum, is cut in half if Core Laboratories’ absolute total shareholder return over the performance period is negative, as determined by the Compensation Committee.

What happens to the Core Laboratories (CLB) performance share award upon certain employment terminations?

The performance share award survives termination due to death, disability, termination by the company without cause, or retirement at age 62. In these cases, vesting still occurs, if earned, on December 31, 2028 based on the same performance conditions and peer ROIC comparisons.
