How is our CEO’s pay linked to Experians performance? (not audited)
The chart below shows Experians annual TSR performance against the FTSE 100 Index over the last seven years. The FTSE 100 Index
is the most appropriate index against which TSR should be measured, as it is widely used and understood. Experian is a constituent
of the index.

How has the CEO’s pay changed compared to the wider workforce? (not audited)
The following table sets out the percentage change in the CEO’s salary, benefits and annual bonus between 2015 and 2016, and how
this compares to the average percentage change for our UK and Ireland employees. Consistent with the approach used in previous
years, the Committee has selected this group of employees to illustrate the comparison because Experian is a UK listed company
and has widely varying approaches to pay across different geographic regions. This also avoids the complexities, including the
impact of foreign exchange rate movements, involved in collating remuneration data across different geographic populations. As an
example of the varying practices across the different countries in which we operate, salary review budgets for 2016 ranged between
1.7% and 25%.
Brian Cassin was appointed CEO part-way through 2015 and in order to provide a comparison with the full-year figures for 2016 his
salary, benefits and annual bonus for the period between 16 July 2014 and 31 March 2015 have been annualised.
The figures for UK and Ireland employees reflect average salaries and average employee numbers each year. The annual bonus
figure includes payments from sales incentive plans.
