Peer Group Issuers, Footnote

Alphabet TSR reflects TSR for Alphabet’s Class C shares (ticker: GOOG). Peer Group TSR is calculated based on the RDG Internet Composite index, which is used for purposes of Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act. The calculation is weighted according to the constituent companies’ market capitalization at the beginning of each period for which a return is indicated.

(1)Represents the grant date fair value of equity-based awards granted each year.

(2)Reflects the value of equity calculated in accordance with the SEC methodology for determining CAP. For all equity awards, our methodology for calculating the value of equity remained consistent between the grant date fair value measurement reflected in row (1) and the point-in-time fair value measurements reflected in the adjustment rows that follow. In all cases, we use the closing price on the applicable date as a basis for fair value. Fair values for each PSU award are measured using a Monte Carlo simulation model as PSUs contain a market condition at the time of grant (as calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718).

Compensation Actually Paid vs. Total Shareholder Return

Over the reported five-year period, CAP for our PEO has generally tracked the direction of Alphabet’s Net Income, cumulative TSR, and relative TSR, with the exception of 2024 and 2025. During these two years, PEO CAP decreased slightly from 2023 levels despite an increase in Alphabet’s share price, record high Net Income, and a strong performance in the company’s 1-year TSR ranking relative to the S&P 100 (the Alphabet-selected measure in the CAP table above). This divergence is primarily driven by a lower unvested equity balance as shares from the 2022 triennial award continued to vest, which limits the impact of year-over-year fair value adjustments despite significant stock price growth.

For non-PEO NEOs, average CAP increased from $60.5 million to $100.9 million in 2025, which trended with the company’s record Net Income of $132,170 million and strong cumulative TSR performance which reached a five-year high in 2025. Over the reported five-year period, average CAP for non-PEO NEOs has generally trended with Alphabet’s relative TSR and Net Income growth, particularly following the transition in 2021 to an equity award mix that includes performance-based awards. This trend also reflects Alphabet’s 1-year TSR ranking relative to the S&P 100, as the average CAP for our non-PEO NEOs has generally followed the year-over-year increases and decreases in this ranking throughout the reported five-year period. Additionally, in each of the reported years, Alphabet’s cumulative TSR has substantially outperformed the cumulative TSR of our peer group, which has driven the value realized through our NEOs’ equity awards, as their CAP has tracked our strong stock price relative to the market.
