Remuneration Report 2022
Introduction from the Remuneration Committee
At A.P. Moller - Maersk, we aspire to provide truly integrated logistics. Across oceans, ports, on land and in the air, we are combining our supply chain infrastructure with the power of our people and technology to drive end-to-end innovation that accelerates our customers' success.
Sustainability remains a key goal based on our company's core values and our responsibility as an integrated container logistics company. We are living in a climate emergency, and we have made a deliberate choice to take an active role in shaping the solutions, enabling the global shipping industry to deliver on the Paris Agreement and A.P. Moller - Maersk to achieve its 2040 net-zero target.
2022 has been a challenging year with great uncertainties for our employees, our customers and stakeholders due to the war in Ukraine, an energy crisis in Europe, high inflation and a slow-down of the global economy, and yet a year we can all be proud of for the strong and unprecedented financial outcome for A.P. Moller - Maersk.
For remuneration purposes, the assessment of performance combines core financial aspects as well as transformational aspects. The first focuses on how we deliver and create value for our shareholders today, the second ensures progress towards our ambitions that will be the basis for future value creation.
Performance on company-wide financial goals is at an all-time high, combined with a strong revenue growth in Logistics & Services as well as solid progress towards our trans formation goals, the performance against the short-term incentive plan for 2022 is at a score of 145%.
Underlining the importance of delivering on our long-term commitments, the changes to Executive Board members' remuneration in 2022 reflect this as we put more emphasis on long-term incentives. Furthermore, from 2023, we are introducing an Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) measure in our long-term incentive plan. We will ensure that we fully align and integrate the right ESG targets to deliver on our commitments.

Remuneration Report 2022
Key remuneration changes and outcomes in 2022
In this section, we provide a summary of the remuneration changes and outcomes for the year which are also detailed in the sections 'Remuneration
- Executive Board' and 'Remuneration - Board of Directors'.
Executive Board
Retirement
Søren Skou retired from the role as CEO as of 1 January 2023, and Morten H. Engelstoft retired from the role as CEO of APM Terminals as of 1 July 2022.
Base salary
Søren Skou, Patrick Jany, Vincent Clerc and Morten H. Engelstoft received no base salary increase. Henriette Hallberg Thygesen's and Navneet Kapoor's base salary increased by 7.1% to reflect the experience, contribution and expectations of their role.
Shift towards long-term focus
In line with our ambition to strengthen the link between pay and long-term company per- formance, the changes in the Executive Board members' remuneration were focused on re-balancing the pay mix to progress towards increasing the proportion of the variable remuneration components.
The long-term incentive target level for Søren Skou and Patrick Jany increased from 65% to 70% of annual base salary.
For Vincent Clerc, the long-term incentive target level increased from 65% to 100% of annual base salary.
For Henriette Hallberg Thygesen and Navneet Kapoor, the long-term incentive target level increased from 50% to 65% and 60% to 65% of annual base salary, respectively.
This complies with the maximum long-term incentive award level of 100% of base salary as outlined in the 2022 Remuneration Policy.
Variable pay reflects strong performance
The short-term incentive was implemented under the same framework as last year with the target award size of 50% of the base salary at the individual level. Navneet Kapoor's short-term incentive target increased from 40% to 50% to align with other Executive Board members.
Financial metrics together with transformation measures have been reviewed for 2022 to emphasise the focus on the company's transformation and growth within the Logistics
-
Services area. As a result, Logistics & Gateways revenue, which was included in the short- term incentive plan for 2021, has been replaced with Logistics & Services revenue and the total weight on transformation measures has increased from 40% to 50%.
The bonus pay-out is determined based on the company's performance against the annual scorecard, which has resulted above the target level at 145%. Bonus pay-out at tar- get versus actual performance for each Executive Board member is shown in Chart 1.

Remuneration Report 2022
From here onwards, we represent the regular Remuneration Report for 2022
Remuneration Committee
The Remuneration Committee ('Committee') continuously monitors prevailing market practice and developments within our peer group companies specifically. We value on going dialogue with our shareholders, institutional investors and other stakeholders to ensure that our Remuneration Policy remains fit for purpose and helps drive execution of the company's strategy.
While the advisory vote for the Remuneration Report 2022 did not result in any changes, the Committee is ensuring that the investors and other stakeholders views are taken into consideration when reviewing the remuneration policy.
Main activities in 2022
The company progressed on the ambitious transformation process that was initiated in 2016 with the aim of creating a focused integrated transport and logistics company with growth and stable profitability. As we are now able to look even further ahead with a clear vision on how to make integrated logistics simpler and more sustainable, and by that bring more value to our customers, the Committee has in 2022 focused on:
- Examining opportunities for improving the long-term incentive framework that links managements' remuneration not only to the company's share price, but also with what they and people they lead contribute to the long-term goals of the company. In 2021, the Committee decided to replace the current Restricted Share and Stock Option Plans with a new Performance Share Plan in 2023; 2022 was used to refine the plan and ensure that we fully align and integrate the right performance measures to deliver on our long-term commitments.
- Discussing and deciding on the appropriate measures for the new long-term incen- tive plan.
- Reviewing the peer group used for benchmarking of executive remuneration.
- Reviewing the service contract terms for Executive Board members.
