INF OR 25th percentile Median 75th percentile OR M (P25) (P50) (P75) M A A T Salary of employee identified (FY 23) T I I ON Total remuneration of employee identified (FY 23) £42k £42k £42k ON £49k £49k £49k CEO pay ratios (Option A) FY 23 59 to 1 50 to 1 41 to 1 FY 22 26 to 1 22 to 1 18 to 1 FY 21 27 to 1 23 to 1 19 to 1 FY 20 53 to 1 45 to 1 37 to 1 FY 19 34 to 1 29 to 1 24 to 1 The ratios are calculated using ‘option A’ as set out in the disclosure regulations. The employees at the lower quartile, median and upper quartile (P25, P50 and P75) were determined based on total remuneration for FY 2023 using a calculation approach consistent with that used for the incumbent CEO in the single figure table on page 111. The Committee chose to use option A on the basis that it would provide the most accurate approach to identifying the median, lower and upper quartile employees. The Committee considers pay ratios as one of many reference points when considering remuneration. Throughout Aston Martin, pay is positioned to be fair and market competitive in the context of the relevant talent market for each role. ASTON MARTIN LAGONDA ANNUAL REPORT AND ACCOUNTS 2023 117
