Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Thryv Holdings, Inc. reports that its Compensation Committee terminated the 2026 Short-Term Incentive Plan (2026 STIP) and replaced it with a new H2 2026 Short-Term Incentive Plan (Bridge Plan), effective July 1, 2026. The change applies to all employees who participated in the 2026 STIP immediately before that date, including the company’s Named Executive Officers.

The Bridge Plan covers the performance period from July 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026 and is intended to align incentives with the company’s revised second-half 2026 business plan and operating priorities following a recently announced restructuring. Target incentive opportunities under the Bridge Plan are prorated to 50% of each eligible employee’s annual 2026 STIP target, reflecting the six‑month performance period. The company states that other terms generally remain the same as under the 2026 STIP, with updated performance targets and a shortened performance period.

Short-Term Incentive Plan financial
"approved the termination of the Company’s 2026 Short-Term Incentive Plan"
Named Executive Officers financial
"including each of the Company’s Named Executive Officers"
Named executive officers are the senior company leaders whose names, roles and compensation are singled out in required regulatory filings; this typically includes the chief executive, chief financial officer and the next highest‑paid senior officers. Investors treat this list like a team roster — it shows who makes key decisions, how they are paid and whether incentives align with shareholder interests, so changes or pay patterns can signal governance quality, risk or strategic shifts.
performance period financial
"covering the performance period of July 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026"
The performance period is the specific time span over which an investment’s results, an employee’s targets, or a fund’s returns are measured and judged. It matters to investors because the length and start/end of that window determine which gains or losses count toward performance fees, bonus payouts, or benchmark comparisons—much like timing a race decides who wins, the chosen period can change whether results look strong or weak.
business plan and operating priorities financial
"reflects the Company's revised second-half 2026 business plan and operating priorities"
prorated financial
"will be prorated by fifty percent (50%) of such eligible employee’s annual target opportunity"
Prorated means dividing or allocating a quantity, cost, or benefit proportionally based on the amount of time or usage involved. For example, if a service fee is paid monthly but someone uses only part of the month, the fee is adjusted to reflect the actual time used. This ensures fairness by matching costs or benefits to the actual period or amount involved, which can impact how investors evaluate expenses, returns, or value.

FAQ

What compensation change did THRY (Thryv Holdings, Inc.) disclose for 2026?

Thryv approved termination of its 2026 Short-Term Incentive Plan and adopted an H2 2026 Short-Term Incentive Plan effective July 1, 2026, aligning incentive pay with its revised second-half 2026 business plan and operating priorities after a restructuring.

Who is covered by Thryv’s new H2 2026 Short-Term Incentive Plan (THRY)?

The H2 2026 Bridge Plan covers all employees who were participants in the 2026 STIP immediately before July 1, 2026, including each of Thryv’s Named Executive Officers, for the performance period July 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026.

How does the new Bridge Plan affect target incentive opportunities at THRY?

Under the Bridge Plan, each eligible employee’s target opportunity is prorated to 50% of their annual target under the 2026 STIP, reflecting a six-month performance period from July 1, 2026 to December 31, 2026 rather than a full year.

Why did Thryv Holdings (THRY) replace its 2026 STIP with a Bridge Plan?

The company states the 2026 STIP was set in December 2025, before a recently announced restructuring. After that restructuring, Thryv’s second-half 2026 business plan and priorities changed, so the Bridge Plan updates performance targets and period to match the revised plan.

What is the performance period under Thryv’s H2 2026 Bridge Plan (THRY)?

The Bridge Plan’s performance period runs from July 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026, replacing the full-year 2026 performance period that applied under the prior 2026 Short-Term Incentive Plan for the same employees.

Item 5.02.
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
 
On August 10, 2026, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Thryv Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the termination of the Company’s 2026 Short-Term Incentive Plan (the “2026 STIP”) and the replacement thereof with the H2 2026 Short-Term Incentive Plan (the “Bridge Plan”), effective as of July 1, 2026 (the “Effective Date”), for all employees of the Company who were participants in the 2026 STIP as of immediately prior to the Effective Date, including each of the Company’s Named Executive Officers.
 
The 2026 STIP and the financial performance targets thereunder were approved by the Committee in December 2025, prior to the recently announced restructuring of the Company. As a result of the restructuring, the Company’s second-half 2026 business plan and priorities have changed. The Bridge Plan, covering the performance period of July 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026, reflects the Company's revised second-half 2026 business plan and operating priorities.
 
The terms of the Bridge Plan are generally the same as those under the 2026 STIP, except that:
 
An eligible employee’s target opportunity under the Bridge Plan will be prorated by fifty percent (50%) of such eligible employee’s annual target opportunity under the 2026 STIP as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date — reflecting a six-month performance period (July 1, 2026 – December 31, 2026);
Performance targets have been updated to reflect the Company's revised second-half 2026 business plan and operating priorities; and
The performance period under the Bridge Plan will cover only the period from July 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026, instead of the full year 2026, as was the applicable performance period under the 2026 STIP.
 
The foregoing description of the Bridge Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Bridge Plan document, which is filed as an exhibit hereto.
