The latest announcement is out from International Paper Co ( (IP) ).
International Paper has corrected a prior disclosure on its 2026 Long-Term Incentive Plan to reflect an additional 10,482 performance stock units awarded to Joseph R. Saab for his 2025 contributions while serving in expanded leadership roles. The company also detailed new PSU grants to several senior executives, a one-time inducement RSU award for new Chief Human Resources Officer Melissa S. Flores, and the full vesting of a 2024 recognition RSU award for Senior Vice President Clayton R. Ellis, underscoring its continued use of equity-based compensation tied to total shareholder return and executive retention.
The PSU grants under the 2026 plan vest after three years based solely on total shareholder return, with payouts ranging from zero to 200 percent of target, reinforcing performance alignment for key leaders. The recognition and inducement awards, along with tax-related share withholdings on vesting, highlight International Paper’s focus on retaining critical talent across packaging and cellulose fibers operations while maintaining regulatory transparency on PDMR share dealings.
