CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. shares closed down about 0.1% at $475.63 on Tuesday after a filing showed the cybersecurity firm approved a new performance-based equity award for Chief Executive George Kurtz. The award is for a target 300,000 performance stock units — stock grants that vest only if targets are met — and can pay out between zero and 600,000 shares based on CrowdStrike’s three-year total shareholder return, or stock gains including dividends, versus S&P 500 constituents. The filing said the payout would be zero below the 25th percentile of relative performance and could reach double the target at the 90th percentile or above. SEC
