2020 Performance Share Plan Award and 2020 Performance Measures
 
2020 Performance Share Plan Award
 
On 14 February 2020, the Company granted conditional share awards to the Executive Directors, other Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities ('PDMRs') and their Persons Closely Associated ('PCA') under the GlaxoSmithKline 2017 Performance Share Plan ('the Plan'). The Plan was approved by shareholders on 4 May 2017 and allows a performance-related opportunity in the form of conditional awards to be granted to senior executives in the Group, including the Executive Directors and other PDMRs.
 
Under the terms of the Plan, conditional awards are granted over a specific number of Ordinary Shares or American Depositary Shares ('ADSs'), and the percentage of awards that ultimately vests is dependent on the level of achievement against performance targets set by the Remuneration Committee.
 
2020 Performance Measures
 
In accordance with the current Remuneration Policy and following engagement with shareholders, the Remuneration Committee has determined that, beginning in 2020, a new performance measure, Pipeline Progress, is being introduced. This new measure is targeted to support GSK's Innovation business priority and reward progress in strengthening our R&D pipeline with high quality assets and in achieving approvals in major markets for key assets or indications. The focus of the metric will be on the achievement of material milestones. This has particular importance as the Company works towards separation.
 
The performance period for the awards is the three financial years from 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2022.  The awards will be based on four measures:
 
Performance Measure
Proportion of each award
Relative Total Shareholder Return (TSR)
 
30%
Adjusted Free Cash Flow (AFCF)
 
30%
Innovation Sales (name changed from R&D New Products)
 
20%
Pipeline Progress
 
20%
 
Relative TSR measure
 
This measure compares the TSR of the Company's Ordinary Shares over the performance period with the TSR of the shares of nine (9) other global pharmaceutical companies (i.e. a comparator group of ten (10) companies including the Company). This TSR comparator group remains unchanged. The companies in the TSR comparator group are AstraZeneca, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Eli Lilly, Johnson & Johnson, Merck & Co, Novartis, Pfizer, Roche Holdings, Sanofi and GlaxoSmithKline.
 
In a group of 10 companies, the median (position 5.5) falls between two companies. The vesting schedule for the 2020 awards is as follows:
 
Ranking position
Vesting Schedule
1st, 2nd or 3rd
100%
4th
70%
5th
40%
Median (Threshold vesting)
25%
6th or below
0%
 
Adjusted Free Cash Flow (AFCF) measure
 
The use of cash flow as a performance measure is intended to recognise the importance of effective working capital management and of generating cash to fund the Group's operations, investments, and ordinary dividends to shareholders.
 
Free cash flow represents the operating profit of the business adjusted for non-cash items after deducting the cost or benefit of working capital, capital expenditure, contingent consideration payments, net interest, dividends paid to non-controlling interests and taxation.
 
The adjustments to free cash flow, used to set the AFCF target for the purpose of this performance measure, include foreign exchange, legal, special pension contributions, and the impact of divestments and acquisitions.  The measure post-adjustment is the "adjusted free cash flow" target.
 
This element of the 2020 award will vest as follows:
 
Performance Level
Adjusted Free Cash Flow target
Proportion Vesting
 
Below threshold
< £9.99bn
0%
Threshold
£9.99bn
25%
 
£10.30bn
50%
 
£11.33bn
75%
Maximum
£11.84bn
100%
 
The proportions vesting between the above vesting levels will be calculated on a straight-line basis.
 
Innovation Sales measure
 
Due to commercial sensitivity, the Remuneration Committee remains of the view that the Innovation Sales measure product target cannot be published at the time of grant.  However, the target and vesting outcome will be disclosed in full at the end of the performance period. 
 
25% of this element will vest if the performance threshold level is attained, rising to 100% for stretching performance exceeding 122% of the set threshold.  Below the set threshold, none of this element will vest. 
 
Pipeline Progress measure
 
The new Pipeline Progress measure is being introduced to increase our emphasis on Innovation and to reward acceleration and strengthening of the pipeline. The measure is based on two equally weighted elements of our key assets or indications: 
 
Proportion of LTI award
 
Pipeline Progress - Sub-measure
10%
Pivotal trial starts, which will focus mainly on phase III registrational trial starts, but may also include phase II starts (for example, in oncology)
10%
Major regulatory approval milestones
 
Points will be allocated to the successful assets in each sub-measure based upon their forecast commercial value (peak year sales) at the end of the performance period.
 
These sub-measures of the 2020 award will vest as follows:
 
 
 
Pivotal Trial Starts                                                                                                             
Performance Level

Where relevant, achievements between the above performance levels will be rewarded on a straight-line basis.  At the end of the performance period we will provide full disclosure of what has been achieved, in terms of both milestones and aggregate points, along with a narrative commentary on performance. 
 
Notes
 
1.   To the extent that each element of a conditional award does not vest at the end of the three-year performance period, it will lapse.
 
2.   The Executive Directors and other PDMRs in the transaction notifications below were each granted a conditional award under the terms of the GlaxoSmithKline 2017 Performance Share Plan.  Awards granted are of Ordinary Shares or ADSs.
 
3.   Dividends will accrue on the conditional award of Ordinary Shares or ADSs during the performance period, but will only vest to the extent that the awards themselves vest at the end of the performance period. These dividends are not included in the figures below.
 
4.   For Executive Directors, the award is subject to an additional vesting period of two years (the 'Holding Period') from the normal vesting date, i.e. five years in total.  During the additional Holding Period, the relevant Ordinary Shares or ADSs would only be forfeited in the event that the Executive Director was terminated for cause, and the Ordinary Shares or ADSs will continue to carry rights to dividend equivalents.
