Context
These were performance-based compensation awards certified by Salesforce’s Compensation Committee for performance periods ending Jan 31, 2026. Because the awards are subject to vesting and continued service, they are not immediate cash realizations or sales. Awards reported at $0 reflect compensation issued, not a market purchase price.
