On 24-Jul-2025 Provident Financial Services (PFS) filed an 8-K announcing board approval of the Provident Bank Executive Severance Plan. Participation is limited to executives selected by the Compensation & Human Capital Committee and is conditional on waiving existing change-in-control agreements, preventing duplicate payouts. If terminated by the company without “cause,” a participant receives:
- cash severance equal to 1× base salary
- 1× target annual cash incentive
- company-paid health coverage for up to 12 months (via COBRA) and six months of outplacement services
Upon termination without cause—or resignation for “good reason”—within two years after a change-in-control, benefits escalate to 2× the above amounts for Valerie O. Murray and Ravi Vakacherla and 3× for CFO Thomas M. Lyons, plus a lump-sum payment equal to 12 months of COBRA premiums. The plan does not include excise-tax gross-ups; payments will be cut if necessary to avoid Section 4999 taxes when that yields a higher after-tax value for the executive. No financial statements or pro-forma data accompany the filing.
On 24 July 2025, Provident Financial Services, Inc. (NYSE: PFS) filed a Form 8-K under Item 7.01 – Regulation FD Disclosure. The filing simply furnishes an investor presentation (Exhibit 99.1) that will be used alongside the company’s Q2-25 earnings release, which is being issued the same day. Management notes the materials are “furnished” rather than “filed,” meaning they are not incorporated into liability provisions of the Exchange Act.
No financial statements, pro-forma information or transaction details accompany the report; Items 9.01 (a)-(c) are marked “Not applicable.” The only additional exhibit is the Inline XBRL cover page file. As a routine Reg FD communication designed to ensure simultaneous public access to earnings slides, the 8-K carries limited direct valuation impact but signals that detailed Q2 results will follow imminently.
Provident Financial Services, Inc. (NYSE: PFS) filed a Form 8-K to disclose an amended and restated employment agreement with President & CEO Anthony J. Labozzetta, effective June 26, 2025. The new three-year agreement replaces the March 11, 2020 contract and will automatically extend one year every June 26 unless either party gives 60-day notice. If a change-of-control occurs, the agreement remains in force for at least two additional years.
Key compensation terms
- Base salary: set at $1.0 million annually; may rise but cannot be reduced (except for broad executive pay cuts).
- Severance—no cause / good-reason exit: cash payment equal to 2× (base salary + target cash incentive), plus up to 24 months of net COBRA premium reimbursements.
- Severance—change-of-control: cash payment equal to 3× (base salary + target cash incentive), plus a lump-sum payment covering 36 months of medical, life and disability premiums.
- Excise-tax protection: payments will be delivered in full or cut to avoid 280G/4999 excise taxes—whichever yields the higher after-tax benefit for the CEO.
- Restrictive covenants: non-compete period expanded to one year post-termination.
No financial statements, pro-forma data or other transactions were included. The filing solely addresses executive compensation, signaling the board’s intent to retain Mr. Labozzetta while tightening post-exit competitive safeguards.
