Northwest Pipe Company ( (NWPX) ) has shared an update.

On March 12, 2026, NWPX Infrastructure’s board approved new long-term incentive grants of performance share units and restricted stock units for key executives, tying 75% of award value to EBITDA margin performance and staggering vesting dates through early 2029 to encourage retention and performance alignment. The company simultaneously set new base salaries and updated employment agreements for its named executive officers, replacing prior change-in-control arrangements and clarifying severance, retirement, and equity treatment across various termination scenarios.

The release also detailed a January 15, 2026 retirement notice from Executive Vice President Miles Brittain, whose formal retirement will occur on April 3, 2026 and be followed by a three-year part-time consulting role that preserves scheduled RSU vesting but forfeits unvested PSUs. In a related leadership move on March 12, 2026, the company elevated Senior Vice President Jesus Tanguis to corporate officer status and confirmed he will receive executive-level compensation and an employment agreement similar to other top executives, while also setting June 10, 2026 as the date for its annual shareholders’ meeting with an April 9, 2026 record date.
