Brown & Brown sets 2026 executive cash incentive targets and approves performance equity grants

Brown & Brown said its board compensation committee approved a 2026 annual cash incentive plan for certain executive officers, with payouts based 40% on organic revenue growth, 40% on adjusted EBITDAC margin, and 20% on personal objectives, with each component ranging from 0% to 200% of target. Target 2026 cash incentives for named executive officers are $5.5 million for J. Powell Brown, $1.4 million for R. Andrew Watts, $1.1 million for J. Scott Penny, and $1.4 million for Chris L. Walker. The company also approved performance-based equity awards effective March 3, 2026, including performance restricted stock for J. Powell Brown ($10.0 million), Watts ($5.0 million) and Penny ($2.5 million), and performance stock units for Walker ($1.5 million). The awards are tied to five-year share-price and EPS growth targets and relative total share price return versus the S&P 500 median, with maximum payouts of 805% for the performance stock awards and 299% for Walker’s PSUs, and multi-year vesting schedules beginning in 2031 for PSUs and 2032 for the performance stock awards.
