AMN 2018 Proxy Statement

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS the expectation that (1) we would achieve market-leading revenue and AEBITDA growth on a consolidated basis and within each of our business segments, and (2) our named executive officers would lead their teams to successfully execute our business strategy in a manner that reflected our core values. Due to our solid operational performance and financial results, each named executive officer earned 85% of his or her target bonus that was tied to the Company’s 2017 financial performance. We set forth below the breakdown of each named executive officer’s compensation for 2017 as taken from the Summary Compensation Table. Response to 2017 Say-on-Pay Vote At our 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on April 19, 2017, we received approximately 96% support on our “say-on-pay” proposal regarding the executive compensation of our named executive officers identified in our 2017 proxy statement. Our compensation program has remained consistent with that set forth in our 2017 proxy statement. We believe the following four themes remain important among our investors: (1) compensation should correlate to company performance, (2) performance awards should constitute an important component of long-term incentive awards, (3) performance measures beyond total shareholder return should be considered, and (4) variable compensation should be designed to motivate, reward and retain executives. 32 AMN HEALTHCARE SERVICES, INC. ⎪ 2018 Proxy Statement SummaryofourNamedexecutiveOfficersCompensationin2017
