James R. Fitterling's holdings in Dow Inc. reflect his long-term commitment to the company. As of 2023, he was granted approximately 151,830 shares, part of a long-term incentive plan that vests over three years. His options include 227,540 shares with an exercise price set at $59.08. This structure indicates that a significant part of his wealth is tied directly to Dow's stock performance, which aligns his interests with those of the shareholders. In past years, fluctuations in stock value have directly influenced his net worth, especially after major events like the DowDuPont merger. While he has faced years of higher compensation tied to bonuses and stock vesting, since the performance metrics didn’t meet expectations for some recent years, his compensation has seen more conservative adjustments, reflecting the company's current focus on long-term sustainability rather than just immediate financial gains.
