Exhibit 99.1

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

 

You are cordially invited to attend the Annual General Meeting (the “Meeting”) of the shareholders of monday.com Ltd. (the “Company,” or “we”, or “our”), to be held at 6:00 p.m., Israel time, on August 6, 2026, at our offices at 6 Yitzhak Sadeh St., Tel Aviv, Israel. The matters to be acted upon at the Meeting are described in the notice and proxy statement appearing on the following pages. Only shareholders who held shares at the close of business on June 26, 2026 are entitled to vote. The Board of Directors of the Company recommends a vote “FOR” each matter set forth in the notice.

 

monday.com is at an inflection point. We have rebuilt our platform around a single organizing principle: people and Al agents, working together to get work done. The platform does not just help teams manage work — it executes it.

 

At the center of the platform are monday agents: Al built natively into monday.com that any team member can configure, deploy, and direct, with no technical background required. Our agents draw on live data across every department, every workflow, and every priority, operating inside the same permissions, security, and governance our customers already trust. They draft, qualify, close, onboard, and process, around the clock, under human supervision. This change defines what monday.com is building toward.

 

The financial foundation supporting this transformation is strong. In 2025, we crossed $1 billion in revenue for the first time, growing 27% year-over-year to $1.232 billion, while delivering GAAP net income of $118.7 million including a one time non cash tax benefit from reversal of valuation allowance in the amount of $61.1 million and $333.6 million in net cash provided by operating activities. In Q1 2026, we had $351.3 million in revenue, record GAAP and non-GAAP operating income, and raised our full-year 2026 revenue guidance to $1.47 billion (at the midpoint), reflecting confidence in the business even as we invest heavily in the Al Work Platform. We ended Q1 2026 with over 4,500 enterprise customers with more than $50,000 in ARR1, growing 32% year-over-year, and 99 customers above $500,000 in ARR, growing 74%.

 

This year’s Annual General Meeting includes the approval of a Compensation Policy for Executive Officers and Directors (the “Compensation Policy”), as well as the approval of compensation terms for our Co-Chief Executive Officers and non-employee directors. These are consequential matters for our shareholders, and we want to be transparent about how we have approached them.

 

The Compensation Policy is the governance framework that sets the boundaries and principles for how we pay our Executive Officers and Directors. It defines the mix of fixed and variable pay, the structure of equity awards, and the limits on severance and other benefits.

 

The approval of compensation terms for our Co-CEOs and non-employee directors reflects the Compensation Committee’s assessment of what is appropriate for the current stage of the business — a company that has crossed $1 billion in revenue, is executing a significant platform transformation, and competes for talent in a global market. The Compensation Committee’s objective throughout has been straightforward: ensure that pay reflects performance and that the overall compensation is competitive enough to retain the people who are driving this business forward.

The Board of Directors believes the proposals presented at this meeting support monday.com’s long-term strategy and are in the best interests of shareholders. The proposed compensation and equity-related matters are designed to reinforce accountability, retain key talent, and align incentives with durable growth, multi-product adoption, Al execution, operating leverage, and long-term shareholder value.

 

Whether or not you plan to attend the Meeting, please sign, date, and mail the enclosed proxy card or vote by telephone or internet in accordance with the instructions on your proxy card. We are grateful for your continued trust. The platform we are building today is the one we have been building toward since 2012.

The Al Work Platform

 

During 2026, the Company has rebuilt its platform from the ground up around a single organizing principle: people and Al agents working together to get work done — across every team, every department, and every type of business.

 

monday agents are built directly into the platform’s data layer, operating within the permissions, security, and governance structures each customer already has in place. Because they run on live operational data rather than a separate Al layer, they can take action across workflows — drafting, qualifying, routing, processing — continuously and under human oversight, without requiring customers to stitch together external tools in order to realize value.

 

In May 2026, the Company also introduced one-click connectors to leading Al platforms, allowing customers to bring their preferred Al models into existing workflows as they wish. Alongside this, monday.com expanded its Al ecosystem with access to multiple large language models through the monday Al Platform Gateway, new Al-powered development tools in monday vibe, and a redesigned mobile app where Sidekick and agents work together in a single interface.

 

 

2 Refer to Exhibit A for a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. 2026 Proxy Statement - 04

 

 

 

In 2025, monday.com crossed $1 billion in revenue for the first time — a milestone that reflects both the scale of the business and the discipline with which it has been built. Revenue of $1,232 billion represented 27% growth year-over-year. GAAP net income reached $118.7 million, and net cash provided by operating activities of $333.6 million supported continued investment and $135 million in share repurchases during the year.

 

Q1 2026 extended the momentum: $351.3 million in revenue (+24% year-over-year), record GAAP and non-GAAP operating income, and $104.7 million in net cash provided by operating activities. The Company holds $1.2 billion in cash and marketable securities as of March 31, 2026. Full-year 2026 revenue guidance (raised following Q1) stands at $1.47 billion (at the midpoint), reflecting management’s confidence in sustained growth as the Al Work Platform scales.

 

 

monday.com’s enterprise motion continues to be the primary growth driver. Customers above $500,000 in ARR — the largest enterprise accounts — grew 74% year-over-year as of the end of Q1 2026, underscoring the depth of monday.com’s penetration into mission-critical workflows at scale. Enterprise customers now represent more than 42% of total ARR as of the end of Q1 2026. Net dollar retention for this cohort stands at 116% as of the end of Q1 2026, reflecting consistent expansion as customers adopt additional products and deepen usage.

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF

SHAREHOLDERS

 

Notice is hereby given that an Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (the “Meeting”) of monday.com Ltd. (the “Company.” “we” or “our”) will be held at 6:00 p.m., Israel time, on August 6, 2026, at the Company’s offices at 6 Yitzhak Sadeh St., Tel Aviv, Israel, for the following purposes:

 

1.to re-elect Mr. Eran Zinman, Mr. Aviad Eyal and Ms. Petra Jenner as Class II directors, to serve until the Company’s annual general meeting of shareholders in 2029, and until their successors are duly elected and qualified;

 

2.to approve the Compensation Policy for Executive Officers and Directors;

 

3.to approve the Co-CEO Compensation Package;

 

4.to approve the Non-Employee Director Compensation Package; and

 

5.to re-appoint Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co., a member firm of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited, as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026 and until the Company’s next annual general meeting of shareholders, and to authorize and ratify the Board of Directors (with power of delegation to its audit committee) to set the fees to be paid to such auditors.

 

In addition to considering and voting on the foregoing proposals, members of the Company’s management will be available at the Meeting to review and discuss with shareholders the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

 

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” each of the above proposals, which are described in the accompanying proxy statement.

 

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented and voting in person or by proxy is required to approve each of the proposals.

 

We know of no other matters to be submitted at the Meeting other than as specified herein. If any other business is properly brought before the Meeting, the persons named as proxies may vote in respect thereof in accordance with their best judgment.

 

Shareholders of record at the close of business on June 26, 2026 are entitled to vote at the Meeting.

 

The approval of Proposal No. 2, and in the event Proposal No. 2 is not approved, also the approval of Proposal No. 3 and Proposal No. 4, is further subject to the fulfillment of one of the following additional voting requirements: (i) the majority of the ordinary shares, no par value (“Shares”) that are voted at the Meeting in favor of a Proposal, excluding abstentions, includes a majority of the votes of shareholders who are not controlling shareholders or do not have a personal interest in the approval of the Proposal; or (ii) the total number of shares of the shareholders mentioned in clause (i) above that are voted against the Proposal does not exceed two percent (2%) of the total voting rights in the Company.

 

2026 Proxy Statement - 07

 

 

 

For this purpose, a “controlling shareholder” is any shareholder that has the ability to direct the Company’s activities (other than by means of being a director or office holder of the Company). A person is presumed to be a controlling shareholder if it holds or controls, by himself or together with others, one half or more of any one of the “means of control” of a company. For the purpose of Proposal No. 3 and Proposal No. 4, in each case, in the event Proposal No. 2 is not approved, the term controlling shareholder shall also include a person who holds 25% or more of the voting rights in the general meeting of the Company if there is no other person who holds more than 50% of the voting rights in the Company. For the purpose of a holding, two or more persons holding voting rights in the Company, each of which has a personal interest in the approval of the transaction being brought for approval of the shareholders of the Company, will be considered to be joint holders.

 

Means of control” is defined as any one of the following: (i) the right to vote at a general meeting of a company, or (ii) the right to appoint directors of a company or its chief executive officer.

 

A “personal interest” of a shareholder in an action or transaction of a company includes a personal interest of any of the shareholder’s relatives (i.e. spouse, brother or sister, parent grandparent, child as well as child, brother, sister or parent of such shareholder’s spouse or the spouse of any of the above) or an interest of a company with respect to which the shareholder or the shareholder’s relative (as defined above) holds 5% or more of such company’s issued shares or voting rights, in which any such person has the right to appoint a director or the chief executive officer or in which any such person serves as director or the chief executive officer, including the personal interest of a person voting pursuant to a proxy which the proxy grantor has a personal interest, whether or not the person voting pursuant to such proxy has discretion with regards to the vote; and excludes an interest arising solely from the ownership of ordinary shares of a company.

 

Under Israeli law, every voting shareholder is required to notify the Company of whether such shareholder is a controlling shareholder or has a personal interest in the approval of Proposal No. 2 and Proposal No. 3 and Proposal No. 4, in the event Proposal No. 2 is not approved (each such shareholder, an “Interested Shareholder”). To avoid confusion, every shareholder voting by means of the enclosed proxy card or voting instruction form, or via telephone or internet voting, will be deemed to confirm that such shareholder is NOT an Interested Shareholder. We consider it highly unlikely that any of our shareholders is a controlling shareholder or has a personal interest in such Proposals (other than our Directors, Executive Officers and their relatives in Proposal No. 2, our Co-CEOs and their relatives in Proposal No. 3 and our non-employee directors and their relatives in Proposal No. 4, in case of Proposal Nos. 3 and 4, in the event Proposal No. 2 is not approved, and therefore none should be deemed an Interested Shareholder. If you are an Interested Shareholder (in which case your vote will only count for or against the ordinary majority tally, and not for or against the special tally under Proposal No. 2, and Proposal No. 3 and Proposal No. 4, in the event Proposal No. 2 is not approved) please notify Ms. Shiran Nawi, Chief People and Legal Officer, at the Company’s offices at 6 Yitzhak Sadeh St., Tel Aviv, Israel, or by email at ir@monday.com. If your Shares are held in “street name” by your broker, bank or other nominee and you are an Interested Shareholder, you should notify your broker, bank or other nominee of that status, and they in turn should notify the Company as described in the preceding sentence.

 

THE SHAREHOLDERS’ VOTE WITH RESPECT TO THE APPROVAL OF PROPOSAL NO. 2, AND PROPOSAL NO. 3 AND PROPOSAL NO. 4, IN THE EVENT PROPOSAL NO. 2 IS NOT APPROVED, IS BINDING UNDER ISRAELI LAW AND NOT MERELY ADVISORY, UNLIKE THE “SAY-ON-PAY” VOTES IN PROXY STATEMENTS FOR U.S. DOMESTIC COMPANIES.

 

2026 Proxy Statement - 08

 

 

 

In special circumstances prescribed by the Israeli Companies Law 5759-1999, and regulations promulgated thereunder, and subject to certain conditions, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors may nonetheless approve Proposal No. 2 even if shareholders have voted against their approval, provided they determine, based on detailed arguments, that such approval is in the best interest of the Company.

 

A proxy statement describing the matters to be voted upon at the Meeting along with a proxy card enabling the shareholders to indicate their vote on the matter will be available on or about July 2, 2026 to all shareholders entitled to vote at the Meeting. Such proxy statement will also be furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under cover of Form 6-K and will be available at https://ir.monday.comI and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Proxies must be submitted to Broadridge Financial Solutions (“Broadridge”) no later than 11:59 p.m. ET on August 5, 2026, or to our offices, to the attention of Ms. Shiran Nawi, Chief People and Legal Officer, no later than 8:00 a.m. (Israel time) on August 6, 2026. Shareholders who hold their shares in “street name,” meaning in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee, must either direct the record holder of their shares on how to vote their shares or obtain and submit a legal proxy from the record holder to vote the shares at the Meeting on behalf of the record holder. You should follow the directions provided by your bank, broker, or other nominee regarding how to instruct them to vote your shares.

(the “Company.” “we” or “our”) in connection with the solicitation of proxies on behalf of the board of directors of the Company (“Board of Directors”) for use at the Annual General Meeting of shareholders (“Meeting”) to be held at 6:00 p.m., Israel time, on August 6, 2026, at the Company’s offices at 6 Yitzhak Sadeh St., Tel Aviv, Israel, or at any adjournments or postponements thereof, pursuant to the accompanying notice of meeting (“Notice”).

In addition to considering and voting on the foregoing proposals (“Proposals”), the Company’s shareholders will have the opportunity to hear from representatives of the Company’s management, who will be available at the Meeting to review and discuss with shareholders the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

 

Board of Directors Recommendation

 

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” each of the above Proposals, which are described below.

 

Record Date

 

Only shareholders of record at the close of business on June 26, 2026, the record date for the Meeting, are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting and any adjournments or postponements thereof. All shareholders are cordially invited to attend the Meeting in person. Shareholders who are unable to attend the Meeting in person are requested to complete, date and sign the enclosed proxy card and return it promptly in the pre-addressed envelope provided or to the Company’s offices or vote by telephone or over the internet in accordance with the instructions on your proxy card. As of May 31, 2026, the Company had outstanding 42,906,944 Shares (excluding treasury shares), each of which is entitled to one vote on each of the matters being voted on at the Meeting.

 

2026 Proxy Statement - 10

 

 

 

Quorum and Adjournment

 

Pursuant to our Amended and Restated Articles of Association, the quorum required for general meetings of shareholders must consist of at least two shareholders present in person or by proxy (including by voting deed) holding not less than 25% of our voting power. A meeting adjourned for lack of a quorum will generally be adjourned (i) to the same day of the following week at the same time and place, (ii) to such day, time and place if so specified in the notice of the meeting, or (iii) to such day, time and place as the Chairperson of the Meeting shall determine (which may be earlier or later than the date pursuant to clause (i) above). At the reconvened meeting, any number of shareholders present in person or by proxy shall constitute a lawful quorum.

 

Pursuant to our Amended and Restated Articles of Association, holders of our Shares have one vote for each Share held on all matters submitted to a vote before the shareholders at a general meeting.

 

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

 

Abstentions and “broker non-votes” are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. A “broker non-vote” occurs when a bank, broker, or other nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner is present in person or by proxy at the Meeting but does not vote on a particular proposal because that holder does not have discretionary voting power for that particular item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. Banks, brokers or other nominees that hold shares in “street name” for clients typically have authority to vote on “routine” proposals even when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners. However, absent specific instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares, banks, brokers, or other nominees are not allowed to exercise their voting discretion with respect to any proposals that are considered non-routine. Proposal No. 1, the re-election of our Class II directors. Proposal No. 2 the approval of our Compensation Policy for Executive Officers and Directors, Proposal No. 3, the approval of the Co-CEO Compensation Package, and Proposal No. 4, the approval of the Non-Employee Director Compensation Package, are considered to be non-routine, and Proposal No. 5, the re-appointment of independent auditors and authorization of the Board of Directors to fix their remuneration (with power of delegation to its audit committee) is considered to be routine. Thus, if you hold your Shares in “street name” and do not provide your bank, broker or other nominee with specific instructions regarding how to vote on Proposal No. 1, Proposal No. 2, Proposal No. 3, and Proposal No. 4, your bank, broker, or other nominee will not be permitted to vote your Shares on the Proposal, resulting in a “broker non-vote.” Therefore, it is important for a shareholder that holds Shares through a bank, broker, or other nominee to instruct its bank, broker, or other nominee how to vote its Shares, if the shareholder wants its Shares to count for all Proposals.

 

Voting Requirements

 

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented and voting in person or by proxy is required to approve each of the Proposals.

 

The approval of Proposal No. 2, and in the event Proposal No. 2 is not approved, also the approval of Proposal No. 3 and Proposal No. 4, is further subject to the fulfillment of one of the following additional voting requirements: (i) the majority of the Shares that are voted at the Meeting in favor of a Proposal, excluding abstentions, includes a majority of the votes of shareholders who are not controlling shareholders or do not have a personal interest in the approval of the Proposal; or (ii) the total number of Shares of the shareholders mentioned in clause (i) above that are voted against the Proposal does not exceed two percent (2%) of the total voting rights in the Company.

 

2026 Proxy Statement - 11

 

 

 

For this purpose, a “controlling shareholder” is any shareholder that has the ability to direct the Company’s activities (other than by means of being a director or office holder of the Company). A person is presumed to be a controlling shareholder if it holds or controls, by himself or together with others, one half or more of any one of the “means of control” of a company. For the purpose of Proposal No. 3 and Proposal No. 4, in each case, in the event Proposal No. 2 is not approved, the term controlling shareholder shall also include a person who holds 25% or more of the voting rights in the general meeting of the Company if there is no other person who holds more than 50% of the voting rights in the Company. For the purpose of a holding, two or more persons holding voting rights in the Company each of which has a personal interest in the approval of the transaction being brought for approval of the shareholders of the Company will be considered to be joint holders.

 

“Means of control” is defined as any one of the following: (i) the right to vote at a general meeting of a company, or (ii) the right to appoint directors of a company or its chief executive officer.

 

A “personal interest” of a shareholder in an action or transaction of a company includes a personal interest of any of the shareholder’s relatives (i.e. spouse, brother or sister, parent grandparent, child as well as child, brother, sister or parent of such shareholder’s spouse or the spouse of any of the above) or an interest of a company with respect to which the shareholder or the shareholder’s relative (as defined above) holds 5% or more of such company’s issued shares or voting rights, in which any such person has the right to appoint a director or the chief executive officer or in which any such person serves as director or the chief executive officer, including the personal interest of a person voting pursuant to a proxy which the proxy grantor has a personal interest, whether or not the person voting pursuant to such proxy has discretion with regards to the vote; and excludes an interest arising solely from the ownership of ordinary shares of a company.

 

Under Israeli law, every voting shareholder is required to notify the Company whether such shareholder is a controlling shareholder or has a personal interest in the approval of Proposal No. 2, and Proposal No. 3 and Proposal No. 4, in the event Proposal No. 2 is not approved (each such shareholder, an “Interested Shareholder”). To avoid confusion, every shareholder voting by means of the enclosed proxy card or voting instruction form, or via telephone or internet voting, will be deemed to confirm that such shareholder is NOT an Interested Shareholder. The Company considers it highly unlikely that any of its shareholders is a controlling shareholder or has a personal interest in such Proposals (other than our Directors, Executive Officers and their relatives in Proposal No. 2, our Co-CEOs and their relatives in Proposal No. 3 and our non-employee directors and their relatives in Proposal No. 4, in case of Proposal Nos. 3 and 4, in the event Proposal No. 2 is not approved), and therefore none should be deemed an Interested Shareholder. If you are an Interested Shareholder (in which case your vote will only count for or against the ordinary majority tally, and not for or against the special tally under Proposal No. 2, and Proposal No. 3 and Proposal No. 4, in the event Proposal No. 2 is not approved) please notify Ms. Shiran Nawi, Chief People and Legal Officer, at the Company’s offices at 6 Yitzhak Sadeh St., Tel Aviv, Israel, or by email at ir@monday.com. If your Shares are held in “street name” by your broker, bank, or other nominee and you are an Interested Shareholder, you should notify your broker, bank, or other nominee of that status, and they in turn should notify the Company as described in the preceding sentence.

 

If the Company determines that a change to a virtual meeting format is advisable or required, an announcement of such change will be published in a Form 6-K furnished with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

 

Apart from for the purpose of determining a quorum, broker non-votes and abstentions will not be counted as represented and voting in person or by proxy. On each matter submitted to the shareholders for consideration at the Meeting, only Shares that are voted on such matter will be counted toward determining whether shareholders approved the matter.

 

2026 Proxy Statement - 12

 

 

 

Shares present at the Meeting that are not voted on a particular matter (including broker non-votes) will not be counted in determining whether such matter is approved by shareholders.

 

Voting Procedures

 

Registered Shareholders

 

Shareholders registered in the Company’s shareholders register (“Registered Shareholders”) may vote their Shares by attending the Meeting and voting their Shares in person, or by completing the enclosed proxy card, signing and dating it and mailing it either in the enclosed postage prepaid envelope or to the Company’s offices, or to vote by telephone or over the internet in accordance with the instructions on your proxy card. Registered Shareholders who vote their Shares by proxy must also provide the Company with a copy of their identity card, passport or certificate of incorporation, as the case may be.

 

Beneficial Owners

 

Shareholders who hold their Shares in “street name,” meaning in the name of a bank, broker, or other nominee, through Cede & Co., referred to as beneficial owners, must either direct the record holder of their Shares how to vote their Shares or obtain and submit a legal proxy from the record holder to vote at the Meeting on behalf of the record holder, together with a proof that such record holder held the Shares on the record date. If you are a beneficial owner whose Shares are held through a bank, broker, or other nominee, you should follow the directions provided by your bank, broker, or other nominee regarding how to instruct them to vote your Shares. It is important for a shareholder that holds Shares through a bank, broker, or other nominee to instruct its bank, broker, or other nominee how to vote if the shareholder wants its Shares to be voted on all Proposals.

 

Note for Shareholders Voting via Proxy Card

 

Shareholders who vote their Shares via proxy card may use the form of proxy and the return envelope enclosed, or mail the proxy card to the Company’s offices.

Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability

 

Corporate responsibility and sustainability matters are central to the Company’s identity, and the ‘monday.com way’ is applied to the challenges and opportunities they present.

 

Board oversight. The Board of Directors is majority independent. The Company reviews director independence and conducts Board of Directors self-assessments annually, and uses tailored onboarding to align new directors with our platform, priorities, and governance framework. The Board of Directors reflects a range of experience and expertise that is purpose-fit to our business strategy, including in enterprise software, venture capital and high-growth technology, go-to-market strategy, financial oversight, and global market expansion, which the Company believes leads to better-informed decisions and stronger oversight.

 

Committee structure. Oversight is distributed across four standing committees of the Board of Directors: Audit, Compensation, Nominating and Corporate Governance, and Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability — each operating under a formal charter. The Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability Committee oversees our environmental and social strategy and reviews our core programs, including environmental initiatives, inclusion and belonging, the monday.com Foundation, and our nonprofit initiatives.

 

Responsible Al. As part of the Company’s broader focus on ethical governance, there is a focus on responsible Al development and oversight. Al capabilities are built with attention to transparency, data privacy, and user control, and are aligned with the platform’s existing permission structures and data residency policies. The Company works with managed, enterprise-grade models that follow zero-retention policies, and does not use customer data to train Al models, nor are third parties allowed to do so.

 

Privacy and security. The Company builds privacy and security into products through a Privacy by Design and Privacy by Default approach. The data protection strategy and controls are based on international standards and industry best practices, such as ISO 27001, ISO 27018, and OWASP Top 10, and are subject to independent annual SOC 2 audits. The platform also includes HIPAA-compliant features and a Guardian add-on offering Tenant-Level Encryption, Bring Your Own Key, and Multiple SSO capabilities to support customers with heightened data protection requirements. The Company conducts red team assessments, penetration tests, attack simulations, and assume-breach simulations, and operates a bug bounty program. A dedicated privacy team builds and executes the Company’s privacy program, including conducting product and feature reviews, privacy and impact assessments, and supporting data protection and privacy-related requests.

 

Ethics and policies. The Company’s approach is anchored in clear, value-led policies, including a Code of Ethics and Conduct, Anti-Corruption Policy, Whistleblower Policy, and Vendor Code of Conduct.

 

The Company’s people and communities. Inclusivity is a core value, and the Company supports belonging through nine Employee Resource Groups available to all employees, leadership and management development programs, and employee wellness initiatives covering both physical and mental health. The Company also helps nonprofits scale their impact through monday for nonprofits and through the monday.com Foundation, an Israeli Public Benefit Company incorporated in 2024 that houses the Company’s Emergency Response Team and Tech School programs.

PROPOSAL NO. 1

 

RE-ELECTION OF OUR CLASS II DIRECTORS

 

Background

 

At each annual general meeting of the Company’s shareholders, the election or re-election of Directors following the expiration of the term of office of the Directors of that class will be for a term of office that expires on the date of the third annual general meeting following such election or re-election. The Company’s Directors are divided among the three classes as follows:

 

the Class I directors are Roy Mann, Gili lohan and Ronen Faier, and their terms will expire at the annual general meeting of shareholders to be held in 2028;

 

the Class II directors are Eran Zinman, Aviad Eyal and Petra Jenner, and their terms will expire at the Meeting; and

 

the Class III directors are Avishai Abrahami and Jeff Horing, and their terms will expire at the annual general meeting of shareholders to be held in 2027.

 

At the Meeting, shareholders will be asked to re-elect Eran Zinman, Aviad Eyal and Petra Jenner as Class II directors.

 

If re-elected at the Meeting, Eran Zinman, Aviad Eyal, and Petra Jenner will serve until the Company’s 2029 annual general meeting of shareholders, and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified, or until their office is vacated in accordance with the Amended and Restated Articles of Association or the Companies Law.

 

In accordance with the Companies Law, Eran Zinman, Aviad Eyal, and Petra Jenner have certified to us that they meet all the requirements of the Companies Law for election as a director of a public company, and possess the necessary qualifications and have sufficient time to fulfill their duties as directors of monday.com, taking into account the size and special needs of monday.com. The Board of Directors has determined that each of Aviad Eyal and Petra Jenner is independent and that Aviad Eyal satisfies the additional requirements applicable to members of an audit committee and a compensation committee under SEC and Nasdaq corporate governance rules. Aviad Eyal currently serves on the Audit, Compensation, Nominating and Corporate Governance, and Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability Committees. Aviad Eyal will continue to serve on those committees subject to his re-election at the Meeting.

 

During 2025, all of the Company’s Directors attended at least 80% of the aggregate of the Board of Directors and applicable committee meetings.

 

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors recommended that Eran Zinman, Aviad Eyal, and Petra Jenner be re-elected at the Meeting as Class II directors for a term to expire at the Company’s 2029 annual general meeting of shareholders, and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified, or until their office is vacated in accordance with the Amended and Restated Articles of Association or the Companies Law.

2026 Proxy Statement - 19

 

 

PROPOSAL NO. 2

 

APPROVAL OF THE COMPENSATION POLICY FOR
EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS

 

Background

 

Under the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 (the “Companies Law”), all Israeli public companies are required to adopt a written compensation policy for their Executive Officers and Directors. The compensation policy sets the framework within which Executive and Director compensation is determined, establishing caps, guidelines, and boundaries. It is not a guarantee of any specific compensation outcome, and individual terms of engagement are determined on a case-by-case basis within its parameters.

 

The Company’s current Compensation Policy was adopted by its shareholders in May 2021 and became effective upon the Company’s initial public offering on the Nasdaq Global Select Market in June 2021 (the “IPO”). In reliance on the provision of the Companies Regulations (Relief Regarding the Obligation to Determine a Compensation Policy), 5773-2013 that permits a newly listed company to adopt an initial compensation policy for a term of up to five years, its shareholders approved the current policy for a five-year term. That term expired in June 2026. Following that initial five-year period, any subsequent shareholder approval of the compensation policy is valid for a term of up to three years under the Companies Law.

 

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) and Board of Directors have approved, and are recommending that the Company’s shareholders approve, a Compensation Policy for Executive Officers and Directors (the “Policy”) for a period of three years from its approval. The Policy is attached to this Proxy Statement as Exhibit B.

 

This proposal represents monday.com’s first compensation policy approval since its 2021 IPO, a milestone that reflects the Company’s substantial growth over that period. The Policy is designed to attract and retain the top talent needed for the Company’s next chapter, while applying a disciplined and responsible approach to compensation across its components.

 

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

 

The Compensation Committee and Board of Director’s approach to Executive and Director compensation is guided by three principles.

 

First, compensation should be designed to attract, retain and motivate experienced and talented leaders who are expected to drive monday.com’s long-term success.

 

Second, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors implemented key principles of a “pay-for-performance” philosophy by designing the executive compensation program to link a substantial portion of the Executives’ target total direct compensation to the achievement of financial and strategic performance objectives that directly correlate to the Company’s key objectives and the long-term enhancement of shareholder value. Therefore, variable compensation is split between performance-based and time-based components, with the structure weighted toward performance, if not equal.

 

Third, compensation levels are benchmarked annually against a relevant peer group approved by the Compensation Committee and positioned at the market median, reflecting a balanced and responsible approach to compensation.

 

2026 Proxy Statement - 20

 

 

Within the first quarter of each year, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors conduct a merit review for the executive team in order to determine the annual equity grants to be granted to each Executive, as well as the performance-based equity awards and annual bonus. At this time they also review whether any base salary increase is appropriate. The defined terms are made in alignment with the Company’s main objectives.

 

The Policy is designed to align the interests of the Company’s Executive Officers and Directors with the long-term interests of the Company and its shareholders, promote sustainable performance, and maintain consistency in the manner in which compensation is structured and administered across the organization.

 

Independent Compensation Advisors and Peer Group

 

The Compensation Committee engaged Meridian Compensation Partners (“Meridian”) to conduct an independent comprehensive review of the Company’s executive compensation program. This included a review of the peer group used for compensation benchmarking and advice to the Compensation Committee regarding market practices and trends, pay levels, and program design, such as the structure and competitiveness of base salary, annual incentive opportunities, long-term incentive design and mix, equity grant practices and levels, share usage, and related governance considerations. The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors retain full discretion and responsibility for executive compensation decisions. Meridian reported directly to the Compensation Committee, and the Compensation Committee determined Meridian to be independent.

 

For the purposes of benchmarking compensation, in December 2025, the Compensation Committee approved a peer group of 20 companies, supported by Radford, a business unit of Aon plc, a leading global provider of consulting services relating to human capital and compensation. Radford reported directly to the Compensation Committee, and the Compensation Committee determined Radford to be independent. The peer group was selected based on several parameters, including sector/industry, revenue, market capitalization, and headcount.

 

Peers are listed below:

 

AppFolio BILL Holdings BlackLine
     
Confluent CyberArk DocuSign
     
Dynatrace Elastic Freshworks
     
GitLab Global-E Online Hubspot
     
Klaviyo MongoDB Procore Technologies
     
Rubrik Samsara SentinalOne
     
Tenable Holdings Wix.com  

 

Equity Management and Dilution

 

The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors consider share-based compensation dilution as a key consideration. Hence, the Company is deliberately cautious with respect to maintaining low levels of dilution in relation to its share-based compensation plans, burn rate, and total cost of equity. The Company continues to demonstrate disciplined equity management and, as such, is committed to carefully managing its equity dilution levels, which is currently 9.94%.

 

2026 Proxy Statement - 21

 

 

The Company’s equity incentive and employee share purchase plans include “evergreen” provisions permitting automatic annual increases to the share reserves, up to specified percentages of the Company’s outstanding shares per year. The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors treat these provisions as ceilings rather than entitlements, authorizing increases based on the Company’s actual hiring, retention, and incentive needs rather than automatically drawing the maximum amount available. From 2022 through 2025, the Company drew approximately 85% of the total evergreen capacity available over that period, electing in certain years to draw less than the full amount where existing reserves were sufficient to meet its needs. This needs-based approach reflects the Board of Directors’ ongoing commitment to responsible equity and share-based compensation management and to limiting dilution to shareholders.

 

The Company has demonstrated a strong commitment to returning excess capital to shareholders, repurchasing $870 million in ordinary shares — representing 10,486,207 shares, or approximately 20% of shares outstanding — from November 2025 through 2026, exceeding all equity units granted over that period. Because share repurchases reduce total shares outstanding, they mechanically increase dilution percentages as calculated by certain third parties. Adjusting for this effect by adding repurchased shares back to total shares outstanding, dilution as of July 1, 2026 would be reduced by 1.81% to 8.13%.

 

The Company’s burn rate for 2025 was 1.8%, calculated as the number of shares underlying equity awards granted during the year divided by total shares outstanding. On a three-year average basis (2023-2025), the Company’s burn rate was 1.9%. The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors consider these levels to be consistent with responsible equity management and reflective of the Company’s disciplined, needs-based approach to equity grants described above.

 

Performance Targets and KPI Structure

 

The Company’s Key Performance Indicators (“KPIs”) are designed to measure the most critical and strategic aspects of the Company’s performance.

 

KPI targets are determined by the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors on an annual basis. Both the annual bonus and the performance component of the annual equity grant are subject to the following payout mechanics: below threshold, no amount is earned; at threshold, a pro-rata portion of the annual bonus or the performance portion of the annual equity grant as applicable, will be earned in accordance with a payout scale, as determined by the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors; at target, the full amount of the annual bonus or the performance component of the annual equity grant as applicable, will be earned; above target both the annual bonus and performance component of the annual equity grants are eligible for payout up to 200% of target in accordance with a payout scale as determined by the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors.

 

Historically, the performance component of the annual equity grant and the annual bonus were determined by two distinct KPIs — one reflecting growth and another reflecting profitability. In 2026, these KPIs were revenue and Non-GAAP operating margins, respectively.

 

Moving forward, the performance component of the annual equity grant and the annual bonus will each be determined by one shared primary KPI related to growth, and one distinct secondary KPI. The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors determined that best practice supports maintaining separate secondary KPIs for long-term (for the performance component of the annual equity grant) and short-term (for the annual bonus) incentives, as this better aligns each vehicle with its intended purpose.

 

The secondary KPI will be selected by the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors at the appropriate time and will be designed to support the Company’s strategy at its then-current stage of development. Given the rapid pace of evolution in the work management and Al-powered productivity space, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors believe retaining flexibility to identify the most relevant and robust metric — whether related to new product expansion, profitability, or other measures of shareholder value — is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.

 

2026 Proxy Statement - 22

 

 

All KPIs will be approved annually by the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors. The target levels for any financial KPIs shall not be established below the Company’s publicly disclosed financial guidance.

 

The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors believe the Policy establishes a direct and transparent link between executive pay and shareholder value. Executives are rewarded for creating value through measurable results, while sharing directly in the gains and losses experienced by shareholders.

 

Principal Amendments

 

The proposed amendments to the current Policy are limited in scope and do not materially alter its substance or philosophy. The principal amendments are as follows:

 

(i) Duration: The term of the Policy is three years from the date of shareholder approval, consistent with the three-year renewal cycle required under the Companies Law for subsequent terms.

 

(ii) Ratio Between Fixed and Variable Compensation: The ratio set forth in Section 4.2 of the policy has been updated to 98% to strengthen pay-for-performance alignment by increasing the proportion of compensation tied to performance outcomes relative to the total compensation package, and to reflect the Company’s current compensation structure.

 

(iii) Equity Grant Caps: The annual equity grant caps applicable to Executive Officers under Section 14.2 of the Policy have been updated to reflect the Company’s growth since the adoption of the current Policy, and its compensation structure at the time of adoption. The Policy retains the existing framework under which the applicable cap for each Executive Officer is determined as a fixed dollar amount and a percentage of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital at the time of grant (each of which operates as a separate ceiling that may not be exceeded), with separate thresholds applicable to the Co-CEOs and other Executive Officers, and with the percentage threshold further differentiated by whether the award includes an exercise price. Specifically, any equity award granted to an Executive Officer in any single year (excluding bonuses paid in equity in lieu of cash) is subject to the following limitations: (a) with respect to the Co-CEOs, (i) for awards without an exercise price (e.g., RSUs or PSUs), the number of shares subject to the award at the time of grant may not exceed 0.50% of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital, (ii) for awards with an exercise price (e.g., options), such number may not exceed 1.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital and (iii) the dollar value of the award, on an “on-target” basis, may not exceed $13,650,000; and (b) with respect to any other Executive Officer, (i) for awards without an exercise price, the number of shares subject to the award at the time of grant may not exceed 0.375% of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital, (ii) for awards with an exercise price, such number may not exceed 0.75% of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital, and (iii) the dollar value of the award, on an “on-target” basis, may not exceed $10,000,000; in each case, any shares earned on account of overachievement may not exceed 200% of the on-target number of shares. The updated caps reflect the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors’ view that executive compensation should be calibrated to the Company’s operational scale, performance trajectory, and the competitive market for leadership talent — factors that do not always move in lockstep with share price at any given point in time.

(iv) Equity Award Terms: Section 14 of the Policy has been updated to refine the terms governing equity awards, including: (a) setting the minimum time-based vesting period for Executive Officers (other than non-employee directors) at three years, with the earliest vesting date for the Co-CEOs occurring no earlier than one year from the date of grant; (b) clarifying the methodology for setting the exercise price of options, which is determined in accordance with the Company’s policies, such that, where options are granted in lieu of RSUs for tax or regulatory reasons, the exercise price may be set at zero, in which case the number of options granted will equal the number of RSUs that would otherwise have been granted in respect of the same award, and in all other cases the exercise price shall equal the fair market value of the Company’s shares on the date of grant; and (c) providing that any repricing of equity awards will be subject to shareholder approval.

 

(v) Special Bonus: The cap on the special bonus that may be granted to an Executive Officer under Section 11.1 of the Policy has been reduced from 200% to 100% of the Executive Officer’s annual base salary, lowering the maximum special bonus opportunity available to Executive Officers.

 

(vi) Aggregate Limitation on Retirement and Termination Payments: The aggregate cap under Section 19 of the Policy, which limits total non-statutory retirement and termination payments to twenty-four (24) times an Executive Officer’s monthly pay, has been expanded to also capture payments made under Section 11.1 (special recognition in connection with retirement) and Section 22.4 (cash bonuses payable in connection with a change of control).

 

(vii) Clawback Policy: The “Clawback Policy” section of the Policy has been revised to ensure alignment with the existing Nasdaq-compliant clawback policy.

 

(viii) Mechanisms for Tax Withholding: The Policy has been revised to clarify the allowed mechanisms for satisfying tax withholding on Executive Officers’ and Directors’ equity-based compensation.

 

The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors are satisfied that the Policy, taken as a whole, reflects a compensation framework that is appropriate given the Company’s scale and stage of development supports the Company’s strategic objectives, and continues to align the interests of Executives with those of shareholders. All compensation ranges have been reviewed against current market data and are consistent with competitive practice.

2026 Proxy Statement - 24

 

 

PROPOSAL NO. 3

 

APPROVAL OF THE CO-CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
COMPENSATION PACKAGE

 

Background

 

Since the Company’s IPO in June 2021, monday.com has grown significantly in revenue, scale, and product breadth, with Co-Chief Executive Officers, Roy Mann and Eran Zinman, leading the Company throughout.

 

monday.com believes having Co-CEOs reflects the complementary expertise of its two co-founders. Working in an integrated partnership since inception, the Co-CEOs jointly drive the Company’s strategic product vision and direction in balance with business growth, and collectively assume responsibilities that would otherwise be distributed across multiple senior roles, such as a President or COO. While they lead the Company’s strategy together, each Co-CEO brings a distinct area of focus that reinforces the other’s leadership. Roy Mann drives cutting-edge research and shapes the platform and ecosystem roadmap. Eran Zinman leads the Company’s business and go-to-market strategy, executive operations, and organizational execution. This structure — a deliberately lean C-suite with broad individual scope — is consistent with their hands-on, founder-led approach. For purposes of compensation benchmarking and investor analysis, while reflecting this breadth of responsibility, the Company and its advisors benchmark each Co-CEO’s compensation individually against the chief executive compensation of peer companies. The Company believes this approach provides an accurate and meaningful basis for comparison and that the Co-CEO structure, built on more than a decade of shared co-founder experience, provides the depth of leadership required to manage both the product and technical dimensions of the Company’s continued growth as an Al Work Platform company.

 

During this period of exceptional growth, Co-CEOs, Roy Mann and Eran Zinman, operated under a compensation framework that reflected their commitment to shareholder alignment, which resulted in each Co-CEO’s total compensation falling below the 25th percentile of the Company’s peer group.

 

According to Meridian’s April 2026 analysis on companies with a Co-CEO structure, the Company’s one-year and three-year revenue growth ranks at the 70th and 76th percentile of the peer group respectively, while its Co-CEO total compensation remains below the 25th percentile. The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors view this gap as material and determined that a phased correction to the market median by 2028 is both appropriate and necessary, to reflect the scope and impact of the Co-CEOs’ roles. Compensation is expected to remain within the market median range through 2029, consistent with the long-term commitment of the leadership team that has driven monday.com’s transformation from a single-product startup to an Al Work Platform.

 

Co-CEO Compensation Review and Methodology

 

Since the IPO, both Co-CEOs have operated under a framework that reflects their deliberate commitment to shareholder alignment. The framework imposed a 3% annual salary increase cap and fixed annual equity grants at $7 million each, regardless of the Company’s performance or market movement. Over five years, while monday.com’s annual revenue grew from $308 million to over $1 billion and the Company expanded into new product categories, Co-CEO compensation remained static relative to the market. This restraint was unusual, does not reflect market practices, and should be recognized as an outlier.

 

2026 Proxy Statement - 25

 

 

The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors determined that, given the growth of the Company over the past five years, it is appropriate and necessary to modify prior outlier restrictions on the Co-CEO compensation package to promote the Co-CEOs’ retention while maintaining close alignment with shareholders.

 

The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors have determined that the proposed compensation package is structured to align a significant portion of Co-CEO compensation with shareholder interests and incentivize long-term shareholder value creation.

 

Central to this assessment is an understanding of how the Co-CEO structure operates in practice, and what the market tells us about how to compensate for it.

 

Co-CEO Structure and Compensation Rationale

 

The Co-CEO structure represents a purposeful and strategic evolution of the Company’s leadership team, established in 2021 prior to the IPO, to best support the Company’s scaled operations.

 

monday.com operates with a lean C-suite in which each Co-CEO carries more than a full CEO scope of responsibility. The Compensation Committee, under the guidance of Meridian, reviewed 24 companies operating with a Co-CEO structure. The analysis found that when both Co-CEOs are founders, the market standard is identical compensation for both — a practice followed by companies including Warby Parker, Monster Beverage, and BlackLine. The Compensation Committee structured the proposed compensation framework to be consistent with this standard.

 

On a per-Executive basis, the proposed compensation reaches the market median by 2028, which is a market-standard outcome. For purposes of benchmarking, each Co-CEO’s compensation is evaluated individually against chief executive compensation at peer companies. In aggregate, the combined package reflects two full CEO-scope roles, offset by a deliberately narrow C-suite structure that limits overall executive compensation spend.

 

In setting the compensation of the Co-CEOs, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors considered, among other things, the following factors:

 

✔ the significant financial and strategic growth of the Company since 2012, under Roy Mann’s and Eran Zinman’s leadership, as more fully described in the “Business Overview” section above;

 

✔ the deliberately narrow executive leadership structure, in which each Co-CEO absorbs responsibilities typically distributed across multiple senior roles;

 

✔ the five-year period of self-imposed compensation restraint, during which each Co-CEO operated under a 3% annual salary cap and a fixed $7 million equity grant regardless of Company performance or market movement;

 

✔ the fact that each Co-CEOs’ total compensation is below the 25th percentile for chief executive officers within the Peer Group and broader market;

 

✔ the difficulty and cost of replacing founder-CEOs, and the potential impact on monday.com’s short- and long-term performance if either Co-CEO were to depart;

 

✔ the stability and long average tenure of the management team under the Co-CEOs’ leadership;

 

✔ Roy Mann’s and Eran Zinman’s unique expertise and profound knowledge of the Company and the industry;

 

2026 Proxy Statement - 26

 

 

✔ benchmarking analysis of compensation paid to chief executive officers in the Peer Group and broader market as well as reviewing the proposed plan against the guidelines of leading proxy advisory firms, and;

 

✔ the heavily performance-linked nature of the Co-CEOs’ equity compensation, including awards that vest only upon the achievement of pre-established performance milestones, directly aligning their interests with those of the shareholders.

 

Proposed Compensation

 

Subject to shareholder approval, the Co-CEOs’ compensation terms will be updated as follows for the period 2027-2029. The proposed compensation package is a structured, phased correction designed to reach the market median by 2028 and maintain that positioning through 2029. This compensation package is consistent with the Policy and compensation philosophy described in Proposal No. 2 above.

 

Base Salary

 

The monthly salary cap is planned to be increased by 19% to NIS 110,000 (approximately US $37,415) in the first year (2027), and by an additional 5% per month in the second and third years to NIS 115,000 (approximately US $39,116) and NIS 120,000 (approximately US $40,816) in 2028 and 2029, respectively, unless a lesser amount is approved by the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors, with a target of approximately 85% of the 25th peer group percentile.

 

Annual Bonus

 

The annual bonus structure remains unchanged. Each Co-CEO is eligible for a target bonus of 100% of annual base salary (12 times monthly salary), with a maximum payout of 200% of annual base salary (24 times monthly salary) for above-target performance. Bonus eligibility is subject to the achievement of annual KPI targets set by the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors. Below-threshold performance results in no bonus. At threshold, a pro-rata portion of the target bonus of 100% of annual base salary will be earned on a straight line basis, in accordance with the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors’ determination.

 

Equity-Based Compensation

 

The annual equity grant will be increased to a target of the 50th peer group percentile by 2028. The equity award for each CEO will be capped in the first year (2027) at $9.5 million, in the second year (2028) at $13 million, and in the third year (2029) at $13.65 million. The proposed equity mix will shift from 70% performance component / 30% time-based component to 60% performance component / 40% time-based component, such that the mix is more in line with peers, and better balances time-based equity with performance-based equity. The performance-based awards payout cap will be increased from 100% to 200%, reflecting peer performance-based awards payout caps, and enabling compensation for the first time for above-target performance. The proposed 60/40 mix remains more performance-weighted than the peer median of 50/50, reflecting the Company’s continued commitment to a pay-for-performance structure. While the overachievement reward will be increased to 200%, this maximum payout will require exceptional outperformance, robust profitability, and substantial delivery of the Company’s strategic and financial goals. This enhancement aligns with the Company’s strict pay-for-performance philosophy, ensuring that maximum rewards are earned only when exceptional value is created for shareholders. To put this in context, over the past three years (2023, 2024, and 2025) the un-capped, formulaic earning rate on performance-based awards granted to the Co-CEOs averaged 113.5%, though their actual equity payouts were strictly limited by the prior 100% cap. This reflects strong performance, but confirms the proposed 200% cap would have applied conservatively under these historical conditions, providing a measured reward for clear outperformance.

 

2026 Proxy Statement - 27

 

 

Severance

 

Each Co-CEO is entitled to 120 days’ advance notice upon termination or resignation. In the event of termination without Cause, whether or not in connection with an M&A Event, each Co-CEO is also entitled to a severance payment equal to 12 months of average monthly base salary for the fiscal year in which termination occurs.

 

Change in Control — Double-Trigger Acceleration

 

All unvested equity awards held by each Co-CEO are subject to double-trigger vesting acceleration. Upon an M&A Event, acceleration is triggered only if the Co-CEO’s employment is also terminated without Cause, or by the Co-CEO for Good Reason, within the period commencing three months prior to and ending 18 months following the closing of such event. “Good Reason” includes a material reduction in target cash compensation (25% or more), a material reduction in benefits, or a material demotion in responsibilities, subject in each case to a 30-day notice and cure period.

 

Projected Compensation Under the Proposed Plan

 

The following reflects the projected total compensation for each Co-CEO under the proposed plan, assuming target performance. These figures represent the target level only; actual payouts depend on annual performance against the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors-approved KPIs and overachievement.

 

  2027 2028 2029
       
Annual Equity Grant $9.5 million $13.0 million $13.65 million
       
Total Compensation
(each, at target)

2026 Proxy Statement - 28

 

 

PROPOSAL NO. 4

 

APPROVAL OF THE NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR
COMPENSATION PACKAGE

 

Background

 

Under the Companies Law, the compensation terms of each Director, including equity-based compensation, must be approved by the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors, and shareholders. The Company’s current Non-Employee Director Compensation Package (the “Current NED Package”) was approved in May 2021, to become effective as of the time of the Company’s IPO in June 2021 and has not been updated since that time.

 

The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors, with the assistance of Meridian, reviewed the Current NED Package against the compensation paid to non-employee directors at 19 peer companies. The analysis determined that the Current NED Package falls below the 50th percentile of the peer benchmark across most components. The sole purpose of the proposed amendments is to bring all components into alignment with the 50th percentile. Nothing in the proposed package is intended to exceed the market median.

 

The proposed Non-Employee Director Compensation Package (the “NED Package”) is consistent with the Policy and compensation philosophy described in Proposal No. 2.

 

NED Package — Principal Terms

 

The following sets out the principal components of the NED Package. All figures are in U.S. Dollars.

 

Cash Compensation

 

Board of Directors member $40,000; Board of Directors Chairperson $60,000; Lead Independent Director $45,000.

Committee chair fees: Audit $20,000; Compensation $15,000; Nominating & Corporate Governance, Corporate Responsibility & Sustainability, and any other standing committee $10,000 each.

Committee member fees: Audit $10,000; Compensation $8,000; Nominating & Corporate Governance, Corporate Responsibility & Sustainability, and any other standing committee $5,000 each.

No fees for ad-hoc committees; a chair receives the chair fee in lieu of the member fee; a Director in multiple roles may receive multiple fees but will not receive both chair and member fees for serving on the same committee.

 

Equity Compensation

 

Annual Grant: $200,000 fair market value; granted yearly upon the Board of Directors’ approval of second quarter financial statements in the third quarter of each year, (unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion); cliff-vests on the first anniversary. None in a Director’s welcome-grant year.
Welcome-Grant: $400,000 fair market value; within 90 days of initial appointment/election to the Board of Directors; vests in 12 equal quarterly installments over three years.
Double-trigger: unvested RSUs fully vest if an M&A Event occurs while serving and the directorship is terminated (other than by the Director) within 12 months after — or immediately before — closing.

 

2026 Proxy Statement - 29

 

 

Principal Changes to the NED Package

 

Cash Retainer Increases: The annual base Board of Directors retainer and certain committee chair and member fees have been increased to align director compensation with prevailing market practice for the Company’s size and stage of development.
Equity Award Increases: The grant-date values of both the annual equity grant and the and the one-time welcome-grant have been increased, consistent with the same market-alignment objective.
Committee Renaming: The former “Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance Committee” has been renamed the “Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability Committee,” with conforming updates to the related chair and member fees.
Timing of the Annual Equity Grant: The annual equity grant is now tied to the Board of Directors’ approval of the Company’s second quarter financial statements and is made in the third quarter of the year, rather than in conjunction with management equity grants, providing a more predictable and governance-aligned grant cycle.
Clarifications: Clarifying text has been added to confirm that a Director may not receive both chair and member fees for service on the same committee.

 

The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors believe these adjustments are measured, market-aligned, and consistent with the compensation philosophy described in Proposal No. 2.

 

Board of Directors Recommendation

 

Proposal

2026 Proxy Statement - A - 01

 

 

 

 

 

A. Overview and Objectives

 

1. Introduction

 

This document sets forth the Compensation Policy for Executive Officers and Directors (this “Compensation Policy” or “Policy”) of monday.com Ltd. (“monday” or the “Company”), in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Law, 5759-1999 and the regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Companies Law”).

 

Compensation is a key component of monday’s overall human capital strategy to attract, retain, reward, and motivate highly skilled individuals that will enhance monday’s value and otherwise assist monday to reach its business and financial long-term goals. Accordingly, the structure of this Policy is established to tie the compensation of each officer to monday’s goals and performance.

 

For purposes of this Policy, “Executive Officers” shall mean “Office Holders” as such term is defined in Section 1 of the Companies Law, excluding, unless otherwise expressly indicated herein, monday’s Directors.

 

This Policy is subject to applicable law and is not intended, and should not be interpreted as limiting or derogating from, provisions of applicable law to the extent not permitted.

 

This Policy shall apply to compensation agreements and arrangements which will be approved after the date on which this Policy is adopted and shall serve as monday’s Compensation Policy for three (3) years, commencing as of its adoption, unless amended earlier.

 

The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors of monday (the “Compensation Committee” and the “Board”, respectively) shall review and reassess the adequacy of this Policy from time to time, as required by the Companies Law.

 

2. Objectives

 

monday’s objectives and goals in setting this Policy are to attract, motivate and retain experienced and talented leaders who will contribute to monday’s success and enhance shareholder value, while demonstrating professionalism in an achievement-oriented and merit-based culture that rewards long-term excellence, while embedding and modeling monday’s core values. To that end, this Policy is designed, among other things:

 

2.1       To closely align the interests of the Executive Officers with those of monday’s shareholders in order to enhance shareholder value;

 

2.2       To align a significant portion of the Executive Officers’ compensation with monday’s short and long-term goals and performance;

 

2.3       To provide the Executive Officers with a structured compensation package, including competitive salaries, performance-motivating cash and equity incentive programs and benefits, and to be able to present to each Executive Officer an opportunity to advance in a growing organization;

 

2.4       To strengthen the retention and the motivation of Executive Officers in the long-term;

 

2.5       To provide appropriate awards in order to incentivize superior individual excellence and corporate performance; and

 

2.6       To maintain consistency in the way Executive Officers are compensated.

 

2026 Proxy Statement - B - 01

 

 

 

3. Compensation Instruments

 

Compensation instruments under this Policy may include the following:

 

3.1       Base salary;

 

3.2       Benefits;

 

3.3       Cash bonuses;

 

3.4       Equity-based compensation;

 

3.5       Change of control provisions; and

 

3.6       Retirement and termination terms.

 

4. Overall Compensation - Ratio Between Fixed and Variable Compensation

 

4.1       This Policy aims to balance the mix of “Fixed Compensation” (comprised of base salary and benefits) and “Variable Compensation” (comprised of cash bonuses and equity-based compensation) in order to, among other things, appropriately incentivize Executive Officers to meet monday’s short and long-term goals while taking into consideration the Company’s need to manage a variety of business risks.

 

4.2       The total annual target bonus and equity-based compensation of each Executive Officer shall not exceed 98% of such Executive Officer’s total compensation package for such year.

 

5. Inter-Company Compensation Ratio

 

5.1       In the process of drafting and updating this Policy, monday’s Board and Compensation Committee have examined the ratio between employer cost associated with the engagement of the Executive Officers, including Directors, and the average and median employer cost associated with the engagement of monday’s other employees (including contractor employees as defined in the Companies Law) (the “Ratio”).

 

5.2       The possible ramifications of the Ratio on the daily working environment in monday were examined and will continue to be examined by monday from time to time in order to ensure that levels of executive compensation, as compared to the overall workforce will not have a negative impact on work relations in monday.

 

B. Base Salary and Benefits

 

6.  Base Salary

 

6.1       A base salary provides stable compensation to Executive Officers and allows monday to attract and retain competent executive talent and maintain a stable management team. The base salary varies among Executive Officers, and is individually determined according to the educational background, prior vocational experience, qualifications, corporate role, business responsibilities and past performance of each Executive Officer.

 

6.2       Since a competitive base salary is essential to monday’s ability to attract and retain highly skilled professionals, monday will seek to establish a base salary that is competitive with base salaries paid to Executive Officers in a peer group of other companies operating in the global technology sectors which are as much as possible similar in their characteristics to monday, the list of which shall be reviewed and approved by the Compensation Committee. To that end, monday shall utilize comparative market data and practices as a reference, including a survey comparing and analyzing the level of the overall compensation package offered to an Executive Officer of the Company with compensation packages for persons serving in similar positions (to that of the relevant officer) in the peer group. Such compensation survey may be conducted internally or through an external independent consultant.

 

2026 Proxy Statement - B - 02

 

 

 

6.3       The Compensation Committee and the Board may periodically consider and approve base salary adjustments for Executive Officers. The main considerations for salary adjustment will be similar to those used in initially determining the base salary, but may also include change of role or responsibilities, recognition for professional achievements, regulatory or contractual requirements, budgetary constraints or market trends. The Compensation Committee and the Board will also consider the previous and existing compensation arrangements of the Executive Officer whose base salary is being considered for adjustment. Any limitation herein based on the annual base salary shall be calculated based on the monthly base salary applicable at the time of consideration of the respective grant or benefit.

 

7. Benefits

 

7.1       The following benefits may be granted to the Executive Officers in order, among other things, to comply with legal requirements:

 

7.1.1 Vacation days in accordance with market practice;

 

7.1.2 Sick days in accordance with market practice;

 

7.1.3 Convalescence pay according to applicable law;

8.2       An annual cash bonus may be awarded to Executive Officers upon the attainment of pre-set periodical objectives and targets determined by the Compensation Committee (and, if required by law, by the Board) for each fiscal year, or in connection with such officer’s engagement, in the case of newly hired Executive Officers, taking into account monday’s short- and long-term goals, as well as its compliance and risk management policies. The Compensation Committee and the Board (if required by law) shall also determine applicable minimum thresholds that must be met for entitlement to the annual cash bonus (all or any portion thereof) and the formula for calculating any annual cash bonus payout, with respect to each fiscal year, for each Executive Officer. In special circumstances, as determined by the Compensation Committee and the Board (e.g., regulatory changes, significant changes in monday’s business environment, a significant organizational change, significant merger and acquisition events, etc.), the Compensation Committee and the Board may modify the objectives and/or their relative weight during the fiscal year, or may modify payouts following the conclusion of the year.

 

8.3       In the event that the employment of an Executive Officer is terminated prior to the end of a fiscal year, the Company may (but shall not be obligated to) pay such Executive Officer an annual cash bonus (which may or may not be pro-rated), assuming the Executive Officer is otherwise entitled to an annual cash bonus.

 

8.4       The actual annual cash bonus to be paid to Executive Officers shall be approved by the Compensation Committee and the Board (if required by law).

10.2     The less significant part of the annual cash bonus granted to monday’s CEO, and in any event not more than 30% of the annual cash bonus, may be based on a discretionary evaluation of the CEO’s overall performance by the Compensation Committee and the Board based on quantitative and qualitative criteria.

The exercise price of options shall be determined in accordance with monday’s policies, the main terms of which shall be disclosed in the annual report of monday, or in any other filing required by law; provided, however that if options are granted in lieu of RSUs due to tax or regulatory considerations, the exercise price may be set at zero (0), in which case the number of options granted shall equal the number of RSUs that would otherwise have been granted in respect of the same award, and

 

2026 Proxy Statement - B - 06

 

 

 

otherwise the exercise price shall be equal to the fair market value of the Company’s shares on the date of grant.

 

13.4     The terms of the awards may provide for the acceleration of vesting upon a change of control. Executive Officers and directors may also participate in monday’s employee stock purchase program (ESPP) according to its terms.

Accordingly, the Board may, following approval by the Compensation Committee, make modifications to such awards consistent with the terms of such incentive plans, subject to any additional approval as may be required by the Companies Law, provided that repricing shall be subject to shareholder approval.

 

14. General Guidelines for the Grant of Awards

 

14.1     The equity-based compensation shall be granted from time to time and be individually determined and awarded according to the performance, educational background, prior business experience, qualifications, corporate role and the personal responsibilities of the Executive Officer.

(ii) with respect to equity awards that include an exercise price, such as options, the number of shares subject to the award at the time of grant shall not exceed 0.75% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company; and
