Item One | |||||||||
Election of Directors The first proposal on the agenda for the Annual Meeting will be electing nine directors to hold office until the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held in 2026. | 9 nominees | ||||||||
We expect each nominee for election as a director to be able to serve if elected. If any nominee is not able to serve, proxies will be voted in favor of the remainder of those nominated and may be voted for substitute nominees, unless the Board chooses to reduce the number of directors serving on the Board. The Company’s Bylaws provide that in any uncontested election (an election in which the number of nominees for director is not greater than the number to be elected), each director shall be elected if the number of votes cast “for” the nominee’s election exceed the number of votes cast “against” that nominee’s election. The Bylaws also provide that any nominee who does not receive more votes cast “for” the nominee’s election than the number of votes cast “against” that nominee in an uncontested election is expected to promptly tender his or her resignation to the Chairman of the Board, which resignation shall be promptly considered through a process managed by the Corporate Sustainability and Governance Committee, to determine if a compelling reason exists for concluding that it is in the best interests of the Company for such incumbent to remain a director. The Corporate Sustainability and Governance Committee shall provide its recommendation to the Board with respect to any tendered resignation within 14 days of the certification of the election voting results and such recommendation shall be acted on by the Board within 30 days of the certification of the voting results. If a resignation offer is not accepted by the Board, it will publicly disclose its decision, including a summary of reasons for not accepting the offer of resignation. In a contested election (an election in which the number of nominees for director is greater than the number to be elected), the directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. | James J.

Audit Committee Report The Audit Committee is composed of three directors, all of whom are considered independent under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Nasdaq Stock Market listing standards and the Visteon Director Independence Guidelines, and operates under a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors. During 2024, the Audit Committee held five meetings. Visteon management has the primary responsibility for the Company’s internal controls and the financial reporting process. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and issuing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The independent registered public accounting firm also expresses an opinion, based on an audit, on the effectiveness of Visteon’s internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee oversees and monitors these processes and reports to the Board of Directors on its findings. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors selects and hires the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee considers the impact of changing auditors when assessing whether to retain the current external auditor, and regarding the mandated rotation, has had direct involvement in the selection process for the lead engagement partner for the Company’s audit. Deloitte & Touche LLP has served as Visteon’s external auditor since 2022. During the year, the Audit Committee met and held discussions with Visteon management and Deloitte & Touche LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP the overall scope and plans for their audit. The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with Visteon management and Deloitte & Touche LLP the audited financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, including the critical audit matters addressed in the audit, as well as the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee also discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP the matters required to be discussed with the Audit Committee by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 1301, Communications with Audit Committees, the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and other applicable regulations. Deloitte & Touche LLP submitted to the Audit Committee the written disclosures and the letter required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence. The Audit Committee discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP the firm’s independence and considered whether the provision of non-audit services by Deloitte & Touche LLP to the Company is compatible with maintaining the independence of Deloitte & Touche LLP. The Audit Committee concluded that the independence of Deloitte & Touche LLP from Visteon and management is not compromised by the provision of such non-audit services. Based on these reviews and discussion, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and filed with the SEC. | ||||

Item Three | |||||
Provide an Advisory Vote Executive Compensation Pursuant to Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, we are seeking stockholder approval of the Company’s executive compensation program and practices as disclosed in this proxy statement. While this vote is advisory, and not binding on the Board, it will provide information to the Board and the Organization and Compensation Committee regarding investor sentiment about our executive compensation programs and practices, which the Organization and Compensation Committee will carefully review when evaluating our executive compensation program. Stockholders are being asked to vote on the following advisory resolution: “RESOLVED, that the Company’s stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s executive officers, as disclosed in the 2025 Proxy Statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the Summary Compensation Table and the other related tables and disclosures.” The Company is committed to maintaining executive compensation programs and practices that are aligned with the Company’s business strategy. As a result, the Company has a strong pay-for-performance philosophy that greatly impacts its decisions regarding executive compensation. Our executive compensation programs seek to align management’s interests with our stockholders’ interests to support long-term value creation and pay for performance. This philosophy and the compensation structure are essential to the Company’s ability to attract, retain and motivate individuals who can achieve superior financial results in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. To that end, our program links pay to performance by delivering a significant majority of the total compensation opportunity of our Named Executive Officers in variable or performance-based compensation programs (annual and long-term incentive plans). Performance measures used in the Company’s annual and long-term incentive plans support the Company’s annual operating plan and longer term strategy and are tied to key Company measures of short and long-term performance. Our program also aligns the Named Executive Officers’ financial interest with those of our stockholders by delivering a substantial portion of their total compensation in the form of equity awards and other long-term incentive vehicles. We urge our stockholders to read “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” above, which describes in detail how our executive compensation program and practices operate and are designed to achieve our compensation objectives, as well as the accompanying compensation tables which provide detailed information on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers. | |||||

Our periodic and current reports, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K, and any amendments thereto, are also available through our internet website at https://investors.visteon.com/sec-filings. The SEC has adopted rules that allow us to send a single copy of our Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or proxy solicitation and other required Annual Meeting materials to two or more stockholders sharing the same address. We may do this only if the stockholders at that address share the same last name or if we reasonably believe that the stockholders are members of the same family. If we are mailing a paper copy of our proxy materials, the rules require us to send each stockholder at the shared address a separate proxy card. We believe this rule is beneficial to both our stockholders and to us. Our printing and postage costs are lowered anytime we eliminate duplicate mailings to the same household. However, stockholders at a shared address may revoke their consent to the householding program and receive a separate copy of these materials.
