The accompanying proxy statement describes the matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on March 25, 2024 are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting and at any adjournments or postponements thereof.

We are pleased to take advantage of the Securities and Exchange Commission rules that allow us to furnish our proxy materials and our annual report to stockholders on the Internet. We believe that posting these materials on the Internet enables us to provide our stockholders with the information that they need more quickly while lowering our costs of printing and delivery and reducing the environmental impact of our Annual Meeting.

We are holding the Annual Meeting in a virtual-only format this year. We believe that this is the right choice for Enovis and its stockholders, as it provides expanded stockholder access, improves stockholder convenience, improves communications, alleviates the environmental impact of traveling to an in-person meeting and promotes the health and safety of participants by allowing them to participate from any location. To attend, participate in, and vote during the Annual Meeting, stockholders of record must go to the meeting website at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/ENOV2024 and enter the control number found on their proxy card or Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”). If you are a beneficial stockholder who owns common stock in street name, meaning through a bank, broker or other nominee, and your voting instruction form or Notice indicates that you may vote those shares through the http://www.proxyvote.com website, then you may attend, participate in, and vote during the Annual Meeting using the 16-digit control number indicated on that voting instruction form or Notice. Otherwise, stockholders who hold their shares in street name should contact their bank, broker or other nominee (preferably at least five days before the Annual Meeting) and obtain a “legal proxy” in order to be able to attend, participate in or vote at the Annual Meeting.

As a stockholder of Enovis, your vote is important. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting virtually, we urge you to vote your shares at your earliest convenience and thank you for your continued support of Enovis Corporation.

Corporate Social Responsibility and Sustainability

Our corporate social responsibility (“CSR”) and sustainability program is organized around identifying, assessing and managing on an ongoing basis the environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) factors that are relevant to our long-term financial performance. Our sustainability program takes into account the interests of our key stakeholder constituencies, including our employees, customers, communities and stockholders. ESG issues that we focus on across the Company include workplace health and safety, energy efficiency, waste management, climate risk, human capital management, diversity and inclusion, supply chain management, business ethics and compliance, and data privacy and protection.

In March 2024, we published our 2023 CSR Report, which details our CSR program and initiatives, and can be accessed on our website at www.enovis.com on the Investors page under the Corporate Governance Tab. The report builds on our 2022 CSR Report, which was our first such report as a standalone medical technology company following the spin-off of ESAB Corporation in April 2022. Key elements of our CSR program and selected highlights from the 2023 CSR Report are summarized below.

Ten director nominees will be elected at the Annual Meeting, each to serve until the next annual meeting of the Company and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified. At the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Board has nominated the following persons to serve as directors for the term beginning at the Annual Meeting on May 20, 2024: Matthew L. Trerotola, Barbara W. Bodem, Liam J. Kelly, Angela S. Lalor, Philip A. Okala, Christine Ortiz, A. Clayton Perfall, Brady Shirley, Rajiv Vinnakota, and Sharon Wienbar. All nominees are currently serving on the Board.

Director Qualifications

 Nominating Committee Criteria for Board Members

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers, among other things, the following criteria in selecting and reviewing director nominees:

Pursuant to its charter, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also reviews, among other qualifications, the perspective, broad business judgment and leadership, business creativity and vision, and diversity of potential directors, all in the context of the needs of the Board at that time. We believe that Board membership should reflect diversity in its broadest sense, including persons diverse in geography, gender, and ethnicity, and we seek independent directors who represent a mix of backgrounds and experiences that will enhance the quality of the Board’s deliberations and decisions.

The charter of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee affirmatively recognizes diversity as one of the criteria for consideration in the selection of director nominees, and in its deliberations and discussions concerning potential director appointments the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has paid particular attention to diversity together with all other qualifying attributes. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is committed to actively seeking out highly qualified women and minority director candidates, as well as candidates with diverse backgrounds, experiences and skills, as part of each director search that our Company undertakes. In addition, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee annually considers its effectiveness in achieving these objectives as a part of its assessment of the overall composition of the Board and as part of the annual Board evaluation process described further below, which includes a director skills matrix to identify areas of director knowledge and experience that may benefit the Board in the future. That information is used as a part of the director search and nomination process. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee looks for candidates with the expertise, skills, knowledge and experience that, when taken together with that of other members of the Board, will lead to a Board that is effective, collegial and responsive to the needs of the Company.

 Board Member Service

The biographies of each of the nominees below contain information regarding the experiences, qualifications, attributes or skills that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board considered in determining that the person should serve as a director of the Company. The Board has been informed that all of the nominees listed below are willing to serve as directors, but if any of them should decline or be unable to act as a director, the individuals named in the proxies may vote for a substitute designated by the Board, or the Board may determine to reduce the size of the Board. The Company has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable or unwilling to serve.

Nominees for Director

The names of the nominees for director, their ages as of April 5, 2024, principal occupations, employment and other public company board service during at least the last five years, periods of service as a director of the Company, and the experiences, qualifications, attributes and skills of each nominee are set forth below:

Vote Required

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast is required for election of each director.

Board Recommendation

Director Independence

The independent members of our Board must hold at least two “executive session” meetings each year without the presence of management. In general, the meetings of independent directors are intended to be used as a forum to discuss such topics as they deem necessary or appropriate. If the Chair of the Board is not an independent director, the independent directors select a Lead Independent Director who serves as chairperson for each executive session. Prior to his retirement from Board service in May 2023, Mitchell Rales served as the presiding director of the independent director executive sessions. Upon Mr. Rales’ retirement, Ms. Wienbar was appointed as Lead Independent Director and has since served as chairperson for executive sessions in that capacity.

Board of Directors and its Committees

The Board and its committees meet regularly throughout the year, and may also hold special meetings and act by written consent from time to time. The Board held a total of six meetings during the year ended December 31, 2023. During 2023, each of our directors attended at least seventy-five percent of the aggregate Board meetings and meetings of the committees of the Board on which such directors served (during the periods that he or she served). Our Corporate Governance Guidelines request Board members to make every effort to attend our annual meeting of stockholders. All of our directors attended our annual meeting of stockholders in 2023.

The Board has a standing Audit Committee, Compensation and Human Capital Management Committee (the “CHCM Committee”), and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The charters for the standing committees are available on the Company’s website at www.enovis.com on the Investors page under the Corporate Governance tab. These materials also are available in print to any stockholder upon request to: Corporate Secretary, Enovis Corporation, 2711 Centerville Road, Suite 400, Wilmington, DE 19808. The Board committees review their respective charters on an annual basis. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees an annual evaluation of the Board and each committee’s operations and performance, as described in greater detail below.

Chair

Audit Committee

Our Audit Committee met ten times during the year ended December 31, 2023. The Audit Committee is responsible, among its other duties and responsibilities, for overseeing our accounting and financial reporting processes, the audits of our financial statements, the qualifications of our independent registered public accounting firm, the performance of our internal audit function and independent registered public accounting firm, and the Company’s policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management related to information technology and cybersecurity. The Audit Committee reviews and assesses the qualitative aspects of our financial reporting, our processes to manage business and financial risks, and our compliance with significant applicable legal, ethical and regulatory requirements. The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of our independent registered public accounting firm. The members of our Audit Committee are Mr. Perfall, Chair, Mr. Okala, and Ms. Bodem. The Board has determined that each of Mr. Perfall, Mr. Okala and Ms. Bodem qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as that term is defined under the SEC rules. The Board has determined that each member of our Audit Committee is independent and financially literate under the NYSE’s listing standards and that each member of our Audit Committee is independent under the standards of Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met five times during the year ended December 31, 2023. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for recommending candidates for election to the Board. In making its recommendations, the committee will review a candidate’s qualifications and any potential conflicts of interest and assess contributions of current directors in connection with his or her renomination. The committee is also responsible, among its other duties and responsibilities, for making recommendations to the Board or otherwise acting with respect to corporate governance policies and practices, including Board size and membership qualifications, new director orientation, committee structure and membership, related person transactions, and communications with stockholders and other interested parties. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is also responsible for reviewing the Company’s undertakings with respect to environmental, social, and governance matters, including the Company’s role as a corporate citizen and the Company’s policies and programs relating to health, safety and sustainability matters. The members of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are Mr. Vinnakota, Chair, Mr. Kelly and Dr. Ortiz. The Board has determined that each member of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is independent under the NYSE’s listing standards.

Compensation and Human Capital Management Committee

Our CHCM Committee met five times during the year ended December 31, 2023. The members of our CHCM Committee are Ms. Lalor, Chair, Ms. Wienbar and Mr. Vinnakota. The Board has determined that each member of our CHCM Committee is a “non-employee director” within the meaning of SEC Rule 16b-3, and is independent under the NYSE’s listing standards for directors and compensation committee members.

The CHCM Committee is responsible, among its other duties and responsibilities, for determining and approving the compensation and benefits of our Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers, monitoring compensation arrangements applicable to our Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers in light of their performance, effectiveness and other relevant considerations and adopting and administering our equity and incentive plans. Specifically, the CHCM Committee annually reviews and approves the corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, evaluates his performance in light of those goals and objectives, and determines his compensation level based on that analysis. The CHCM Committee also annually reviews and approves all elements of the compensation of our other executive officers. Our Chief Executive Officer plays a significant role in developing and assessing achievement against the goals and objectives for other executive officers and makes compensation recommendations to the CHCM Committee based on these evaluations. The CHCM Committee also administers all of the Company’s management incentive compensation plans and equity-based compensation plans. The CHCM Committee makes recommendations to the Board regarding compensation of all executive officer hires, all elements of director compensation, and the adoption of certain amendments to incentive or equity-based compensation plans. The CHCM Committee also assists the Board in its oversight of risk related to the Company’s compensation policies and practices applicable to all Enovis team members. Additionally, the CHCM Committee periodically reviews the Company’s strategies and policies related to human capital management, including with respect to matters such as diversity, inclusion, pay equity, corporate culture, talent development and retention. For further information on our compensation practices, including a description of our processes and procedures for determining compensation, the scope of the CHCM Committee’s authority and management’s role in compensation determinations, please see the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this Proxy Statement, which begins on page 27.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

No member of the CHCM Committee is or has ever been an officer or an employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, and no CHCM Committee member has any interlocking or insider relationship with the Company which is required to be reported under the rules of the SEC.

Identification of Director Candidates and Director Nomination Process

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers candidates for Board membership suggested by its members and other Board members, as well as by management and stockholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may also use outside consultants and third-party search firms to assist in identifying candidates. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for assessing whether a candidate may qualify as an independent director. Each possible candidate is discussed and evaluated in detail before being recommended to the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee utilizes the same criteria for evaluating candidates regardless of the source of the referral.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends, and the Board nominates, candidates to stand for election as directors. Stockholders may nominate persons to be elected as directors and, as noted above, may suggest candidates for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. If a stockholder wishes to suggest a person to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for consideration as a director candidate, he or she must provide the same information as required of a stockholder who intends to nominate a director pursuant to the procedures contained in Section 3.3 of our Bylaws, in accordance with the same deadlines applicable to director nominations, as described below under “General Matters—Stockholder Proposals and Nominations.”

Board Leadership Structure

Our Board’s goal is to achieve the best possible Board leadership structure to facilitate effective oversight and management of our Company. The Board believes that there is no single, generally accepted approach to providing effective Board leadership, and that the leadership structure of the Board may vary from time to time based on the individuals serving on the Board and the specific circumstances facing the Company. To that end, our Corporate Governance Guidelines specify that the Board does not have a formal policy as to whether the positions of Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer should be held by separate persons, or whether the Chair should be independent, and that the Board’s policy is instead to adopt the practice that best serves the Company’s needs at any particular time.

Mr. Trerotola, our Chief Executive Officer, has served as Chair of the Board since May 2023 following Mr. Rales’ retirement at our 2023 Annual Meeting. In arriving at its decision to appoint Mr. Trerotola as Chair, the Board noted that Mr. Trerotola is be able to leverage his deep understanding of the Company’s business to elevate the right strategic opportunities and identify key risks and mitigation opportunities for the Board’s review. The Board also determined that, in his role of Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Trerotola is best positioned to effectively communicate Board strategy to the other members of management and to efficiently implement Board directives and priorities.

Following the 2023 Annual Meeting, in accordance with our Corporate Governance Guidelines, Ms. Wienbar was appointed as Lead Independent Director. We believe that the presence of a strong Lead Independent Director ensures robust independent leadership on the Board and enhances the Board’s ability to evaluate management performance and fulfill its oversight role. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines establish a clear mandate and specific responsibilities for the Lead Independent Director, which include, among other things, coordinating the activities of the independent directors, consulting with the Chair to help establish Board meeting schedules and agendas and reviewing those schedules and agendas, calling and presiding over executive sessions of the independent directors, acting as a liaison between the independent directors and the Chair, and coordinating the annual performance evaluation of the Chief Executive Officer together with the CHCM Committee. We believe that Ms. Wienbar’s extensive knowledge of the Company, leadership experience on other public and private company boards, business acumen and deep understanding of growth and innovation drivers make her well suited for the role of Lead Independent Director.

Board Evaluation Process

The Board and its committees conduct self-assessments annually at their February meetings. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees the process. The annual evaluation procedure is summarized below.

Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

 Full Board

The Board maintains responsibility for oversight of risks that may affect the Company. The Board discharges this duty primarily through its standing committees and also considers risk in its strategic planning for the Company and in its consideration of acquisitions. The Board engages in discussions about risk at each quarterly meeting, where it receives reports from its committees, as applicable, about the risk oversight activities within their respective areas of responsibility. In coordination with the Audit Committee, the Board reviews the Company’s enterprise risk management with the Company’s senior leaders, with a focus on those risks that have the highest probability and greatest impact to the Company. In addition, the Company maintains a Compliance Steering Committee, which includes all members of the Company’s executive leadership team, as well as leaders of key functional areas, such as compliance, supply chain and information technology. The Compliance Steering Committee meets on a quarterly basis to review enterprise risks, as well as related mitigation efforts, and management provides regular updates to the Board on significant matters that are discussed at such meetings.

The Audit, Nominating and Corporate Governance and CHCM Committees each make full reports to the Board of Directors at each regularly scheduled meeting regarding each committee’s considerations and actions, and risk considerations are presented to and discussed with the Board by management as part of strategic planning sessions and when considering potential acquisitions. Further details regarding the roles of the Board’s standing committees with respect to risk oversight are set forth below.

 Audit Committee

The Audit Committee (i) receives reports from and discusses with management, our internal audit team, and our independent registered public accounting firm all major risk exposures (whether financial, operating or otherwise), (ii) reviews the Company’s policies with respect to risk assessment and enterprise risk management, including with respect to cybersecurity risks, and (iii) oversees compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and our ethics program, including our Code of Business Conduct.

On an annual basis, management (i) provides the Audit Committee with a comprehensive overview of the Company’s compliance, information security and cybersecurity programs and initiatives and (ii) reviews its assessment of key enterprise risks and focus areas with the Audit Committee, utilizing a “risk radar” approach developed from meetings with key executives, external benchmarking discussions and reviews of industry thought leadership. Such assessment takes into account, among other things, potential impact to financial statements, regulatory and compliance considerations, potential impact to the Company’s brand and reputation, and the Company’s ability to meet customer demands.

Management reports to the Audit Committee on a quarterly basis regarding the Company’s information security and cybersecurity programs, including the Company’s training, processes, controls and procedures in these areas, as well as its efforts to monitor and improve its cybersecurity defenses and response plans. In addition, management provides regular updates to the Audit Committee on compliance and other matters that are raised through the Company’s ethics hotline and other internal channels.

 Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees the corporate governance principles and governance structures that contribute to successful risk oversight and management. Pursuant to its charter, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has primary oversight responsibility for reviewing the Company’s undertaking with respect to ESG matters, and reviews ESG trends and developments with management as a standing agenda item at each meeting.

 CHCM Committee

Standards of Conduct

 Corporate Governance Guidelines and Pledging

The Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines, which set forth a framework to assist the Board in the exercise of its responsibilities. The Corporate Governance Guidelines cover, among other things, the composition and certain functions of the Board and its committees, executive sessions, Board responsibilities, expectations for directors, director orientation and continuing education, and our policy prohibiting pledging of Enovis stock.

Code of Business Conduct

As part of our system of corporate governance, the Board has also adopted a Code of Business Conduct (the “Code of Conduct”), that is applicable to all directors, officers and employees of the Company. The Code of Conduct sets forth Company policies, expectations and procedures on a number of topics, including but not limited to conflicts of interest, compliance with laws, rules and regulations (including insider trading laws), honesty and ethical conduct, and quality. The Code of Conduct also sets forth procedures for reporting violations of the Code of Conduct and investigations thereof. If the Board grants any waivers from our Code of Conduct to any of our directors or executive officers, or if we amend our Code of Conduct, we will, if required, disclose these matters through our website within four business days following such waiver or amendment.

Clawback Policy

In September 2023, the CHCM Committee adopted a new clawback policy in compliance with recently enacted SEC rules and NYSE listing standards which applies to our executive officers and mandates the recovery of any erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation in the event that the Company is required to restate its financial results due to material non-compliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period. See page 39 for further details on our clawback policy.

Policies on Insider Trading, Hedging and Stock Ownership

The Company has a Policy on Insider Trading and Compliance which, in addition to mandating compliance with insider trading laws, requires prior legal department review and approval of any Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, and prohibits any director, officer or employee of the Company from engaging in short sales, transactions in derivative securities (including put and call options), or other forms of hedging and monetization transactions, such as zero-cost collars, equity swaps, exchange funds and forward sale contracts, that allow the holder to limit or eliminate the risk of a decrease in the value of the Company’s securities. Further, we have stock ownership policies applicable to our directors and executives to promote alignment of interests between our stockholders, directors and management, as described in greater detail further in this Proxy Statement.

Where to Find Our Key Governance Policies

The Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Conduct are available on the Company’s website at www.enovis.com on the Investors page under the Corporate Governance tab. These materials also are available in print to any stockholder upon request to: Corporate Secretary, Enovis Corporation, 2711 Centerville Road, Suite 400, Wilmington, DE 19808.

Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions

Policies and Procedures for Related Person Transactions

We have adopted a written Policy Regarding Related Person Transactions pursuant to which our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee or a majority of the disinterested members of our Board generally must approve related person transactions in advance. The policy applies to any transaction or series of similar transactions involving more than $120,000 in which the Company is a participant and in which a “related person” has a direct or indirect material interest. “Related persons” include the Company’s directors,

nominees for director, executive officers, and greater than 5% stockholders, as well as the immediate family members of the foregoing. In approving or rejecting the proposed transaction, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee takes into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, whether the proposed related person transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances, the extent of the person’s interest in the transaction and, if applicable, the impact on a director’s independence. Under the policy, if we discover related person transactions that have not been approved, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is to be notified and will determine the appropriate action, including ratification, rescission or amendment of the transaction.

Relationships and Transactions

Hayden Shirley, an employee of one of the Company’s subsidiaries, is the son of Brady Shirley, a director and former executive officer of the Company. In 2023, Mr. H. Shirley served as a director of sales for the Company’s surgical business, and earned approximately $410,445 in salary and commissions. He was also granted restricted stock unit awards with respect to 754 shares, which vest ratably over a three-year period. His compensation is consistent with the total compensation provided to other employees of the same level with similar responsibilities.

Stockholders and interested parties wishing to communicate with our Board may do so by writing to any of the members of the Board, the Chair of the Board, or the non-management members of the Board as a group, at:

Our Policy Regarding Stockholder Communications with the Board of Directors (the “Board Communications Policy”) requires that any stockholder communication to members of the Board prominently display the legend “Board Communication” in order to indicate to the Corporate Secretary that it is communication subject to our policy and will be received and processed by the Corporate Secretary’s office. Each communication received by the Corporate Secretary is copied for our files and promptly forwarded to the addressee. In our Board Communications Policy, the Board has requested that certain items not related to the Board’s duties and responsibilities be excluded from forwarded communications, such as mass mailings and business advertisements. In addition, the Corporate Secretary is not required to forward any communication that the Corporate Secretary, in good faith, determines to be frivolous, unduly hostile, threatening, illegal or similarly unsuitable. However, the Corporate Secretary maintains a list of each communication subject to this policy that is not forwarded, and on a quarterly basis delivers the list to the Chair of the Board. In addition, each communication subject to this policy that is not forwarded because it was determined by the Secretary to be frivolous, commercial advertising, irrelevant or similarly unsuitable is nevertheless retained in our files and made available at the request of any member of the Board to whom such communication was addressed.

In 2023, non-employee Board members received compensation under the following compensation program:

Mr. Rales, who was our non-executive Chair of the Board until his retirement effective as of the 2023 Annual Meeting, received an annual cash retainer of $1 and did not receive any other cash fees or the annual equity awards described above. Ms. Wienbar was elected by the Board to serve as Lead Independent Director effective upon Mr. Rales’ retirement, and receives an annual cash retainer of $40,000 for service as Lead Independent Director. Such retainer was pro-rated for 2023.

In December 2023, the Board, upon the recommendation of the CHCM Committee, approved certain updates to the non-employee director compensation policy in order to align director compensation with market practices among the Company’s compensation peer group. Effective as of January 1, 2024, the value of annual equity awards awarded to non-employee directors will be $230,000, and for 2024 such awards will be comprised entirely of restricted stock units that vest after one year of service on the Board.

The Board has also approved a stock ownership policy for our non-employee directors. Each non-employee director is required to own shares of our common stock (including shares issuable upon exercise of stock options and shares underlying restricted stock units) with a value equal to five times the annual cash retainer within five years of joining the Board. All of our directors, except for Ms. Bodem and Dr. Ortiz, who were appointed in April 2022 and are in the five-year grace period, have achieved these ownership targets as of the date of this Proxy Statement.

Further, our Board has adopted a policy prohibiting any director (or executive officer) from pledging as security under any obligation any shares of Company stock that he or she directly or indirectly owns and controls, and providing that pledged shares of Company common stock do not count toward our stock ownership requirements.

The Board has adopted a Director Deferred Compensation Plan which permits non-employee directors to receive, at their discretion, deferred stock units (“DSUs”) in lieu of their annual cash retainers and committee chairperson retainers. A director who elects to receive DSUs receives a number of units determined by dividing the cash fees earned during, and deferred for, the quarter by the closing price of our common stock on the date of the grant, which is the last trading day of the quarter. A non-employee director also may convert director restricted stock unit grants to DSUs under the plan. DSUs granted to our directors convert to shares of our common stock after separation from service, based upon a schedule elected by the director in advance. In the event that a director elects to receive DSUs, the director will receive dividend equivalent rights on such DSUs to the extent dividends are issued on our common stock. Dividend equivalents are deemed reinvested in additional DSUs (or fractions thereof) at the dividend payment date.

We also reimburse all directors for travel and other necessary business expenses incurred in the performance of their services on our Board and the committees thereof and extend coverage to them under our directors’ and officers’ indemnity insurance policies.

The following table sets forth information regarding compensation paid to our non-employee directors during 2023:

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION FOR 2023

As of December 31, 2023, the aggregate number of unvested stock awards and unexercised options outstanding held by each of our non-employee directors then serving at the time was as follows:

We are asking our stockholders to ratify the Audit Committee’s selection of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, and oversight of our independent auditors. Ernst & Young LLP has served as our independent auditor since its appointment in 2002. Although stockholder ratification is not required, the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP is being submitted for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice with a view towards soliciting stockholders’ opinions which the Audit Committee will take into consideration in future deliberations. If the selection is not ratified, the Audit Committee will consider whether it is appropriate to select another registered public accounting firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may select a different registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders. The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee believe that the retention of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company’s independent auditor is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Representatives for Ernst & Young LLP are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Fees and Services

The following table sets forth the aggregate fees for services rendered by Ernst & Young LLP for the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022:

This category of the table above includes fees for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 that were for professional services rendered (including reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses) for the integrated audits of our annual consolidated financial statements, for reviews of the financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and for statutory audits.

Audit-Related Fees

This category of the table above includes the fees billed for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and are not reported under “Audit Fees.”

Tax Fees

This category of the table above includes fees billed for tax compliance, tax preparation, tax planning and other tax services. For 2023, Tax Fees included approximately $302,150 for tax compliance and preparation, and for 2022, Tax Fees included approximately $285,000 for tax compliance and tax preparation.

All Other Fees

This category of the table above includes fees billed for products and services other than those described above under Audit Fees, Audit-Related Fees and Tax Fees.

The Audit Committee has considered whether the services rendered by the independent registered public accounting firm with respect to the fees described above are compatible with maintaining the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence and has concluded that such services do not impair its independence.

Audit Committee’s Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

Pursuant to its charter, the Audit Committee must pre-approve all auditing services, review and attest services, internal control related services and non-audit services provided to the Company by the independent registered public accounting firm and all fees payable by the Company to the independent registered public accounting firm for such services. The Audit Committee also is responsible for overseeing the audit fee negotiations associated with the retention of Ernst & Young LLP for the audit of our financial statements. The Audit Committee has adopted a pre-approval policy to promote compliance with the NYSE’s listing standards and the applicable SEC rules and regulations relating to auditor independence. In accordance with the Audit Committee charter and the pre-approval policy, the Audit Committee reviews with Ernst & Young LLP and management the plan and scope of Ernst & Young LLP’s proposed annual financial audit and quarterly reviews, including the procedures to be utilized and Ernst & Young LLP’s compensation, and pre-approves all auditing services, review and attest services, internal control related services and permitted non-audit services (including the fees and terms thereof) to be performed for us by Ernst & Young LLP. The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more members of the Audit Committee consistent with the pre-approval policy, provided that the decisions of such Audit Committee member or members must be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

Vote Required

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote is required to ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2024.

Board Recommendation

The Audit Committee consists of A. Clayton Perfall, Barbara W. Bodem and Philip A. Okala, who are all non-management directors. The members of the Audit Committee meet the independence and financial literacy requirements of the NYSE and the additional, heightened independence criteria applicable to members of the Audit Committee under SEC and NYSE rules. In 2023, the Audit Committee held ten meetings. The Audit Committee operates pursuant to a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors, which it annually reviews. The charter, which complies with all current regulatory requirements, is available on the Company’s website at www.enovis.com on the Investors page under the Corporate Governance tab. During 2023, at each of its regularly scheduled meetings, the Audit Committee met with senior members of the Company’s finance team. Additionally, the Audit Committee has separate private sessions, during its regularly scheduled meetings, with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and head of internal audit, respectively. The Audit Committee is updated periodically on management’s process to assess the adequacy of the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting, the framework used to make the assessment, and management’s conclusions on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee has also discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm, their evaluation of the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting.

The Audit Committee evaluates the performance of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm each year and determines whether to reengage the current independent registered accounting firm or consider other independent registered accounting firms. In doing so, the Audit Committee considers the quality and efficiency of the services provided by the independent registered accounting firm, the firm’s global capabilities, and the firm’s technical expertise, tenure as the Company’s independent registered accounting firm and knowledge of the Company’s global operations and businesses. In connection with the applicable audit partner rotation requirements, the Audit Committee also is involved in considering the selection of the auditors’ lead engagement partner when rotation is required. Based on this evaluation, the Audit Committee decided to engage Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Audit Committee reviews with the independent registered accounting firm and management the overall audit scope and plans, as well as the results of internal and external audit examinations and evaluations by management and the independent registered accounting firm of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting and the quality of the Company’s financial reporting. Although the Audit Committee has the sole authority to appoint the independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee recommends that the Board ask stockholders, at the Company’s annual meeting, to ratify the appointment of the independent registered accounting firm (see Proposal 2 beginning on page 24).

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 with management and with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, including a discussion of the quality and suitability of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant accounting judgments and estimates, and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements. In addressing the quality of management’s accounting judgments, members of the Audit Committee are apprised of certifications prepared by the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer that the unaudited quarterly and audited annual consolidated financial statements of the Company fairly present, in all material respects, the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company.

In performing all of these functions, the Audit Committee acts in an oversight capacity. The Audit Committee reviews the Company’s quarterly and annual reports on Form 10-Q and Form 10-K prior to filing with the SEC. In its oversight role, the Audit Committee relies on the work and assurances of the Company’s management, which has the primary responsibility for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for preparing the financial statements, and other reports, and of the independent registered public accounting firm, which is engaged to review the quarterly consolidated financial statements of the Company, and audit and report on the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company and the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of the Company’s year-end.

The Audit Committee discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) and SEC. The Audit Committee has received from the independent registered public accounting firm the written disclosures and the letter required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent registered public accounting firm’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm its independence. On the basis of the reviews and discussions referenced above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The following discussion and analysis of compensation arrangements of our named executive officers for 2023 should be read together with the compensation tables and related disclosures set forth under the section heading “Executive Compensation.”

Executive Summary

Named Executive Officers

The following discussion provides details regarding our executive compensation program and the compensation of our named executive officers in 2023. Our named executive officers (“NEOs”) for 2023 are:

Our Compensation Philosophy and Guiding Principles

Our executive compensation approach links compensation to Company and individual performance while aligning the long-term interests of management and stockholders. We strive to create a compensation program for our team members, including our executives, that provides a compelling and engaging opportunity to attract, retain and motivate the best talent. We believe that our compensation programs motivate performance-driven leadership that is aligned to achieve our financial and strategic objectives with the intention to deliver superior long-term returns to our stockholders. Utilizing this philosophy, our executive compensation program has been designed to:

Fiscal 2023 Pay for Performance Alignment and Compensation Overview

Our leadership team delivered strong results in 2023 and continued to execute on the Company’s long-term goals of revenue growth and margin expansion. We finished fiscal 2023 with adjusted earnings per share of $2.40 and adjusted EBITDA of $269 million. Our Prevention & Recovery and Reconstructive business segments each continued to outgrow their markets, while accelerating their pace of innovation. We also made continued and significant progress on our margin improvement journey, expanding our adjusted EBITDA margin by 70 basis points.

As a result of this strong financial performance, we achieved and exceeded the established targets under our Annual Incentive Plan (“AIP”) for sales and adjusted EBITDA, leading to an overall company performance factor under the AIP of 122% of target for our NEOs.

Further, the CHCM Committee took the following actions during 2023:

2023 Say-On-Pay Vote

At our 2023 Annual Meeting, approximately 98% of the stockholder votes cast on our advisory proposal to approve the compensation of our NEOs were voted in favor of our executive compensation proposal. Our CHCM Committee considered the outcome of this vote in the context of our prior and ongoing engagement with stockholders and accordingly did not make any additional changes to our executive compensation policies and program elements. Our CHCM Committee believes this affirms stockholders’ support of the Company’s approach to executive compensation. Accordingly, the CHCM Committee did not make any changes to the underlying structure of our executive compensation program in response to the 2023 “say-on-pay” vote, but will continue to review and consider the outcome of future say-on-pay votes when making compensation decisions for our NEOs.

Our Executive Compensation Program

Our executive compensation program includes elements designed to align executive pay with Company objectives and long-term stockholder returns, including the PRSU grants based on relative Total Shareholder Return as discussed above.

For 2023, the CHCM Committee established the following target compensation program for our CEO:

2023 CEO Incentive Compensation Structure

With respect to our other NEOs, for 2023, the CHCM Committee established the following target compensation program:

2023 Incentive Compensation Structure for Other NEOs (Average)

Our 2023 executive compensation structure consists of three core compensation elements: base salary, an annual cash bonus, and long-term incentives. The CHCM Committee reviewed each element individually while also considering the total compensation package provided to create an appropriate mix designed to attract, incentivize, and retain our executives. The following table summarizes the core elements of our 2023 executive compensation program:

Leading Compensation Practices

The framework of our executive compensation program includes the governance features and other specific elements discussed below:

Determination of Executive Compensation and Performance Criteria

Our executive compensation program is based on the philosophy and design outlined above with a focus on exceptional performance and continuous improvement from our management team. Within this framework, the CHCM Committee exercises its reasoned business judgment in making executive compensation decisions and takes into account recommendations by our Chief Executive Officer with respect to the compensation of each executive officer, other than himself (see “CEO Recommendations” on page 37). Some of the factors that generally are referenced when making executive compensation decisions, none of which is assigned a particular weight, are as follows:

Further, a substantial percentage of compensation under our Annual Incentive Plan is determined solely by the achievement of annual performance criteria based on Board-approved financial and operational goals for the fiscal year. These goals are then incorporated into the metrics set for our Annual Incentive Plan and approved by the CHCM Committee, as further discussed under “Bonus Calculation and Payment - Financial and Operational Metrics and 2023 Performance Results” on page 33. We believe that this link to our Board-established corporate and business goals reinforces alignment and incentivizes breakthrough results both at the business-unit level and Company-wide.

Elements of Our 2023 Executive Compensation Program

Base Salary

Base salaries are designed to provide compensation that is market competitive so that we can attract the best qualified individuals and retain our senior management. Base salaries are established at an executive’s hire and generally reviewed annually for potential increases. In February 2023, the CHCM Committee set the salary levels for each of our NEOs based on the CHCM Committee’s assessment of the relative roles and responsibilities of management and the results of their individual performance assessments, combined with perspective from competitive compensation data prepared by FW Cook and the CHCM Committee’s reasoned business judgment. Mr. Berry received a phased increase to his base salary in connection with his promotion to Chief Financial Officer. On January 1, 2023, his base salary was increased to $500,000 and on August 1, 2023, he received a second increase to $575,000. Mr. Berry’s compensation during 2023 is aligned with similarly situated executives in our peer group. A comparison of base salary levels as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 is set forth below:
