ACCOUNTING FOR EQUITY COMP: TODAY AND TOMORROW

Start the new year with a forward-focused session on how accounting and stock administration teams can drive greater alignment, accuracy, and innovation in equity compensation reporting.

Join us on January 6th for a hosted happy hour beginning at 4:00 PM, followed by the formal session starting around 4:30 PM.

This event features real-world perspectives from Amazon’s equity compensation team and explores the full financial reporting lifecycle—from the core mechanics of the annual close to the growing role of AI in transforming how equity compensation is managed and reported.

Andrea Bosenberg, Equity Accounting at Amazon, will share practical accounting insights, including key dependencies, common challenges, and lessons learned that contribute to accurate and efficient financial reporting.

Michael Sanders, Stock Administration at Amazon, will provide the administrator’s viewpoint, highlighting how AI tools are enhancing productivity, reducing manual work, and improving collaboration with accounting during the close process and beyond.

The session will conclude with a live Q&A panel, giving attendees a chance to engage directly with Andrea and Michael on their roles, cross-functional coordination, and how they see equity compensation evolving in the year ahead.

Who Should Attend
While this session is designed for stock plan professionals, we encourage you to invite your accounting and finance colleagues—especially those involved in close processes, financial reporting, or audit support.

This session is eligible for CPE credit for those attending the full session.

Thank you to our sponsor!

With pay transparency and equity requirements tightening across both the U.S. and Europe, understanding how equity fits into the broader pay equity framework has never been more important. This session will explore how companies can proactively manage compensation fairness, mitigate legal risk, and prepare for upcoming EU regulations. Experts will discuss how to incorporate equity awards—such as RSUs, options, and performance grants—into pay equity
analyses and offer practical steps for compliance across regions.


KEY LEARNING POINTS:

  • Understand why U.S.-based companies should routinely conduct pay equity analyses under federal and state laws—and how equity awards factor into those reviews.
  • Learn how to value and integrate equity compensation (RSUs, options, performance grants) into pay equity assessments to ensure accurate and defensible results.
  • Gain insights into the EU’s new pay transparency and equity testing requirements—and how U.S. companies can conduct “look-ahead” testing now to identify and address potential compliance gaps before implementation.
