Mr. Maleh has been our PEO for each year presented. For purposes of calculating the average compensation amounts for our non-PEO NEOs, Messrs. Holmes and Yellin were included for each year presented. Mr. Mahoney was included for fiscal years 2021 through 2024 and for a portion of fiscal 2025 through his resignation in April 2025. Dr. Nierenberg and Mr. Langan were included beginning in fiscal 2025 following their appointments as NEOs effective August 2025. Compensation amounts for each non-PEO NEO reflect compensation earned during the applicable fiscal year, including compensation earned for partial-year service.
​

The amounts shown for Compensation Actually Paid have been calculated in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K and do not reflect compensation actually earned, realized, or received by the Company’s NEOs. These amounts reflect the Summary Compensation Table Total with certain adjustments as described in footnote 3 below.
​

Compensation Actually Paid reflects the exclusions and inclusions of certain amounts for the PEO and the Non-PEO NEOs as set forth below. The fair value of stock awards was determined using methodologies and assumptions developed in a manner substantively consistent with those used to determine the grant date fair value of such awards.

The Peer Group Total Shareholder Return, or TSR, set forth in this table utilizes the customized peer group, which we also utilize in the stock performance graph required by Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2026. The customized peer group consists of three companies: Exponent Inc., FTI Consulting Inc. and Huron Consulting Group Inc. The comparison assumes $100 was invested for the period starting January 2, 2021, through the end of the listed year in the Company and in the customized peer group, respectively. All dollar values assume reinvestment of the pre-tax value of dividends paid by companies, where applicable, included in the customized peer group. Historical stock performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock performance.
