clawback mechanism financial
"Performance Targets: The Awards are not subject to performance conditions. Clawback mechanism: Clawback may be applied where there are the following exceptional circumstances"
A clawback mechanism is a contractual rule that lets a company recover money or benefits it already paid — for example bonuses, incentive pay, or erroneous payouts — if certain problems later appear, such as fraud, accounting errors, or regulatory breaches. Investors care because clawbacks protect shareholder value by holding managers accountable and reducing the risk that the company must absorb losses; think of it like a security deposit that can be reclaimed if the renter causes damage.
