3、 Independent opinions on the scientificity and rationality of the indicators set in the restricted stock incentive plan in 2022
The appraisal indicators of the restricted stock incentive plan in 2022 are divided into two levels: company level performance appraisal and individual level performance appraisal.
The company selects the annual operating revenue value or the cumulative annual operating revenue value as the company level performance index. Operating income is an important indicator to measure the operating status and market share of an enterprise and predict the business expansion trend of an enterprise. It is also an effective indicator to reflect the growth of an enterprise. The company's main RF front-end chips are mainly used in smart phones and other mobile smart terminals, which are vulnerable to macroeconomic fluctuations and reduced downstream demand. There are many companies in the RF front-end chip design industry, the market competition is increasing, and the chip products provided by competitors tend to be homogeneous, which makes the company face risks such as the decline of market product unit price and the reduction of industry profit. At the same time, as the performance difference of smart phones and other mobile intelligent terminals gradually shrinks, the competition in the downstream market is fierce, and the gross profit margin of downstream enterprises shows a downward trend, which may also lead to the reduction of the profit space of design enterprises in the industry. In this context, according to the development characteristics and actual situation of the industry, after reasonable business prediction and taking into account the incentive role of the incentive plan, the company has set reasonable performance assessment indicators on the basis of comprehensive consideration of macroeconomic environment, historical performance, industry development, market competition and the company's future development plan, It helps to improve the competitiveness of the company's core business, ensure the realization of the company's future development strategy and business objectives, and bring more efficient and lasting returns to shareholders.
In addition to the performance appraisal at the company level, the company has also set up a performance appraisal system for individuals, which can make a more accurate and comprehensive comprehensive evaluation of the work performance of incentive objects. The company will determine whether the individual incentive object meets the ownership conditions of restricted shares according to the annual performance evaluation results of the incentive object.
In conclusion, after careful review, all our independent directors agree that the assessment system of the company's restricted stock incentive plan in 2022 is comprehensive, comprehensive and operable, the setting of assessment indicators is scientific and reasonable, and has a binding effect on the incentive objects, which can achieve the assessment purpose of the restricted stock incentive plan in 2022.
