The live audio webcast of the Annual Meeting will be accessible at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/JAMF2024, where you will also be able to submit questions and vote online. You will be able to vote your shares electronically during the meeting by logging in using the 16-digit control number included in your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, on your proxy card, or on the voting instruction form accompanying these proxy materials.
The accompanying Proxy Statement provides information about the matters we will ask you to consider at the Annual Meeting, which are:

COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING
Q: Why did I receive these materials?
The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Jamf Holding Corp. (“Jamf”) is soliciting your proxy to vote at our 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) (or at any postponement or adjournment of the meeting). Shareholders who own shares of our common stock as of the record date, April 1, 2024 (the “Record Date”), are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. You should review these proxy materials carefully as they give important information about the proposals that will be voted on at the Annual Meeting, as well as other important information about Jamf.
Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials.   As permitted by Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules, we are making this Proxy Statement and our Annual Report available to our shareholders electronically via the Internet. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) contains instructions on how to access this Proxy Statement and our Annual Report and how to vote online or by telephone. If you received a Notice by mail, you will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials in the mail. Instead, the Notice instructs you on how to access and review all of the important information contained in the Proxy Statement and Annual Report. The Notice also instructs you on how you may submit your proxy over the Internet or by telephone. If you received the Notice by mail and would like to receive a printed copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting such materials contained on the Notice.
Householding.   The SEC’s rules permit us to print an individual’s multiple accounts on a single notice or set of annual meeting materials. To take advantage of this opportunity, we have summarized on one Notice or set of annual meeting materials all of the accounts registered with the same tax identification number or duplicate name and address, unless we received contrary instructions from the impacted shareholder prior to the mailing date. Each registered shareholder will, however, continue to receive separate proxy cards. We agree to deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a separate copy of the Notice or proxy materials, as requested, to any shareholder to which a single copy of those documents was delivered. If you prefer to receive separate copies of the Notice or proxy materials, contact Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc. at 1-866-540-7095 or in writing at Broadridge Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717. A number of brokerage firms have instituted householding. They will have their own procedures for shareholders who wish to receive individual copies of the proxy materials.
Q: Who will be entitled to vote?
Shareholders who own shares of our common stock as of the Record Date, are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, Jamf had 128,333,366 shares of common stock outstanding. Holders of shares of common stock are entitled to one vote per share. Cumulative voting is not permitted with respect to the election of directors or any other matter to be considered at the Annual Meeting.
Q: What will I be voting on?
You will be voting on:
1.
the election of David Breach, Michael Fosnaugh, Christina Lema, and John Strosahl as Class I directors to serve on the Board until the 2027 Annual Meeting and until their successors are duly elected and qualified;
2.
the approval, by an advisory vote, of Jamf’s say-on-pay proposal;
3.
the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as Jamf’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2024; and
4.
any other business as may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment or postponement of the meeting.

Q: How does the Board recommend I vote on these matters?
The Board recommends you vote:
1.
FOR the election of David Breach, Michael Fosnaugh, Christina Lema, and John Strosahl as Class I directors;
2.
FOR the approval, by an advisory vote, of Jamf’s say-on-pay proposal; and
3.
FOR the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2024.
Q: How do I cast my vote?
Beneficial Shareholders.   If you hold your shares through a broker, trustee, or other nominee, you are a beneficial shareholder. In order to vote your shares, please refer to the materials forwarded to you by your broker, bank, or other nominee for instructions on how to vote the shares you hold as a beneficial shareholder.
Registered Shareholders.   If you hold shares in your own name, you are a registered shareholder and may vote during the virtual Annual Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/JAMF2024. You will need your unique 16-digit control number included on your Notice or proxy card. Only one person will be able to log in with that unique control number at any time. You can also vote by proxy before the Annual Meeting in the following ways:
1.
via the Internet at www.proxyvote.com;
2.
by telephone by calling 1-800-690-6903; or
3.
by signing and returning a proxy card.
Proxies submitted via the Internet or by telephone must be received by 11:59 p.m. (EDT) on May 29, 2024.
Q: Can I access the proxy materials electronically?
Yes. Your Notice, proxy card or voting instruction form will contain instructions on how to:
1.
view our proxy materials for the Annual Meeting on the Internet; and
2.
instruct us to send our future proxy materials to you electronically by e-mail.
Our proxy materials are also available at www.proxyvote.com and our proxy materials will be available during the voting period starting on April 19, 2024.
Instead of receiving future copies of our proxy statements and annual reports by mail, shareholders of record, and most beneficial owners can elect to receive an email that will provide an electronic link to these documents. Your election to receive future proxy materials by email will remain in effect until you revoke it.
Q: How may I change or revoke my proxy?
Beneficial Shareholders.   Beneficial shareholders should contact their broker, trustee, or nominee for instructions on how to change their proxy vote.
Registered Shareholders.   Registered shareholders may change their vote or revoke a properly executed proxy at any time before its exercise:
1.
via the Internet at www.proxyvote.com;
2.
by telephone by calling 1-800-690-6903;
3.
by signing and returning a later-dated proxy card; or

4.
by voting at the Annual Meeting.
Q: How can I attend the Annual Meeting?
The Annual Meeting is being held as a virtual-only meeting. If you are a shareholder of record as of the Record Date and have logged in using your 16-digit control number, you may attend, vote, and ask questions virtually at the meeting by logging in at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/JAMF2024. The control number is included in the Notice or on your proxy card.
If you are not a shareholder as of the Record Date or do not have a control number, you may listen to the Annual Meeting, but will not be able to ask questions or vote at the meeting.
If you have questions, you may type them into the dialog box provided at any point during the meeting (until the floor is closed to questions). Shareholder questions or comments are welcome, but we will only answer questions pertinent to Annual Meeting matters, subject to time constraints. Questions regarding personal matters and statements of advocacy are not pertinent to Annual Meeting matters and therefore will not be addressed. Questions or comments that are substantially similar may be grouped and answered together to avoid repetition. A webcast replay of the Annual Meeting will also be archived on www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/JAMF2024.
Q: What if I run into technical issues while trying to access the Annual Meeting?
The virtual meeting platform is supported across browsers and devices running the most updated version of applicable software and plug-ins. Ahead of the Annual Meeting, participants should log in to ensure a strong internet connection and that streaming audio can be heard.
If you encounter technical difficulties with the virtual meeting platform on the meeting day, please call the technical support number that will be posted on the meeting website. Technical support will be available starting at 8:15 a.m. CDT and until the end of the meeting.
Q: Why is the Annual Meeting virtual only?
We have held virtual only annual meetings since our initial public offering, and we are excited to continue using this format to provide ease of access, real-time communication, and cost savings for our shareholders and our company. Hosting a virtual meeting makes it easy for our shareholders to participate from any location around the world.
Q: How many shares must be present to transact business at the Annual Meeting?
A quorum of our shareholders must be present at the Annual Meeting for any business to be conducted. Under our amended and restated bylaws (the “Bylaws”), the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding capital stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, constitute a quorum. If you authorize a proxy to vote electronically or telephonically, or you sign and return a paper proxy or voting instruction form, your shares will be counted to determine whether a quorum has been established even if you “withhold” your vote or fail to vote on a particular item of business. Abstentions and “broker non-votes” will also be considered present for the purpose of determining whether there is a quorum for the Annual Meeting.
If a quorum is not present or represented by proxy at the scheduled time of the Annual Meeting, the chair of the Annual Meeting or the holders of a majority of the voting power entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the meeting, may adjourn the Annual Meeting until a quorum is present or represented by proxy.
Q: What is the voting requirement to approve each of the proposals, and how are the votes counted?
PROPOSAL 1 — ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
A plurality of the votes cast by the shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon is required to elect each nominee named herein. This means that
 
3

 
the four nominees receiving the highest number of votes “FOR” at the Annual Meeting will be elected, even if those votes do not constitute a majority of the votes cast. Votes that are “WITHHELD” with respect to one or more nominees will result in the respective nominee receiving fewer votes, but they will not count as votes against a nominee and will have no effect on the outcome of the election of those nominees because directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. If you are a beneficial shareholder, your bank or broker is not permitted to vote your shares on this proposal if voting instructions are not received from you (this is commonly referred to as a “broker non-vote”). Broker non-votes are not considered votes cast and, therefore, will not impact the election of the nominees.
PROPOSAL 2  — NON-BINDING ADVISORY APPROVAL OF THE SAY-ON-PAY PROPOSAL
The affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the capital stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon will constitute the shareholders’ non-binding approval with respect to the say-on-pay proposal. Although the results will not be binding on the Compensation and Nominating Committee or the Board, the Compensation and Nominating Committee and the Board will consider the results of the shareholder vote when making future decisions regarding executive compensation. Abstentions will be counted as shares present and entitled to vote and therefore will have the same effect as a vote against Proposal 2. The say-on-proposal is not considered a “routine” matter, and therefore, if you are a beneficial shareholder and your bank, broker, or other nominee does not receive instructions from you, they may not vote your shares on your behalf (a “broker non-vote”). Broker non-votes will not be deemed represented at the Annual Meeting for purposes of voting on Proposal 2 and, therefore, will have no effect on Proposal 2.
PROPOSAL 3  — RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the capital stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon is required to approve Proposal 3. Abstentions will be counted as present and entitled to vote on Proposal 3 and will therefore have the same effect of a negative vote as a vote against Proposal 3. Since this is a “routine” matter, we do not expect there to be any broker non-votes with respect to the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2024.
Q: When will the results of the vote be announced?
The preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. The final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC within four business days of the Annual Meeting.
Q: What is the deadline for submitting a shareholder proposal or director nomination for our Annual Meeting to be held in 2025?
Shareholder proposals pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) for inclusion in Jamf’s proxy statement and form of proxy for Jamf’s annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 2025 must be received by the Chief Legal Officer and Secretary at Jamf’s principal executive offices at 100 Washington Ave S, Suite 1100, Minneapolis, MN 55401, no later than December 20, 2024. Shareholders wishing to make a director nomination or bring a proposal before the annual meeting to be held in 2025 (other than pursuant to Rule 14a-8) must provide written notice of such proposal to the Chief Legal Officer and Secretary at Jamf’s principal executive offices no later than the close of business on February 28, 2025 and not earlier than the close of business on January 30, 2025, assuming Jamf does not change the date of the 2025 annual meeting of shareholders by more than 30 days before or after the anniversary of the Annual Meeting. If so, then Jamf’s Chief Legal Officer and Secretary must receive the notice no earlier than the close of business on the 120th calendar day prior to the date of the 2025 annual meeting of shareholders and not later than the close of business on the later of the 10th calendar day following the day on which public announcement of the date of 2025 annual meeting of shareholders is first made by Jamf or the 90th calendar day prior to the date of the 2025 annual meeting. Any shareholder proposal or
 
4

 
director nomination must comply with the other provisions of Jamf’s Bylaws and be submitted in writing to the Chief Legal Officer and Secretary at Jamf’s principal executive offices.
In addition to satisfying the foregoing requirements under our Bylaws, to comply with the requirements set forth in Rule 14a-19 of the Exchange Act (the universal proxy rules), shareholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees, other than the Board’s nominees, must also provide written notice to the Chief Legal Officer and Secretary that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19(b) of the Exchange Act. Such notice must be postmarked or transmitted electronically to Jamf at its principal executive offices, no later than March 31, 2025.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board, which is currently composed of eleven directors. Our Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (our “Certificate”) provides that the authorized number of directors may be changed only by resolution of our Board. Our Certificate also provides that our Board be divided into three classes of directors, with the classes as nearly equal in number as possible. At each annual meeting of shareholders, a class of directors will be elected for a three-year term to succeed the class whose term is then expiring.
The following table sets forth the director class, name, age as of April 1, 2024, and other information for each member of our Board:

We believe that in order for our Board to effectively guide us to long-term sustainable and dependable performance, it should be composed of individuals with sophistication and experience in the many disciplines that impact our business. In order to best serve our shareholders, we seek to have a Board, as a whole, that is competent in key corporate disciplines, including accounting and financial acumen, business judgment, crisis management, governance, leadership, people management, risk management, social responsibility and reputational issues, and strategic planning. Additionally, we desire that the Board have specific knowledge related to our industry, such as expertise in software and technology. The Compensation and Nominating Committee believes that all directors must, at a minimum, meet the criteria set forth in the Board’s Code of Ethics and the Corporate Governance Guidelines, which specify, among other things, that the Compensation and Nominating Committee will consider criteria such as independence, diversity, age, skills, and experience in the context of the needs of the Board. In addressing issues of diversity in particular, the Compensation and Nominating Committee considers a nominee’s differences in gender, ethnicity, tenure, skills, and qualifications. The Compensation and Nominating Committee believes that diversity of backgrounds and viewpoints is a key attribute for a director nominee. While we do not have a formal policy on diversity, when considering the selection of director nominees, the Compensation and Nominating Committee considers individuals with diverse backgrounds, viewpoints, accomplishments, cultural background, and professional expertise, among other factors. Further, our Board is committed to actively seeking highly qualified women and individuals from underrepresented minority groups to include in the pool from which new candidates are selected. The Compensation and Nominating Committee also will consider a combination of factors for each director, including: (a) the nominee’s ability to represent all shareholders without a conflict of interest; (b) the nominee’s ability to work in and promote a productive environment; (c) whether the nominee has sufficient time and willingness to fulfill the substantial duties and responsibilities of a director; (d) whether the nominee has demonstrated the high level of character, ethics, and integrity expected by the Company; (e) whether the nominee possesses the broad professional and leadership experience and skills necessary to
 
6

 
effectively respond to the complex issues encountered by a publicly-traded company; and (f) the nominee’s ability to apply sound and independent business judgment.
The Compensation and Nominating Committee has determined that all of our directors meet the criteria and qualifications set forth in our Code of Ethics, our Corporate Governance Guidelines, and the criteria set forth above for director nominees. Moreover, each director possesses the following critical personal qualities and attributes that we believe are essential for the proper functioning of the Board to allow it to fulfill its duties for our shareholders: accountability, ethical leadership, governance, integrity, risk management, and sound business judgment. In addition, our directors have the confidence to assess and challenge the way things are done and recommend alternative solutions; a keen awareness of our business and social realities of the environment in which we operate; the independence and high performance standards necessary to fulfill the Board’s oversight function; and the humility, professional maturity, and style to interface openly and constructively with other directors. Finally, the director biographies below include a non-exclusive list of other key experiences and qualifications that further qualify each director to serve on the Board. These collective qualities, skills, experiences, and attributes are essential to our Board’s ability to exercise its oversight function for Jamf and its shareholders, and guide the long-term sustainable, dependable performance of Jamf.
Subject to any earlier resignation or removal in accordance with the terms of our Certificate, our Class I directors will serve until the Annual Meeting, and each of them is standing for election in connection therewith. Our Class II directors will serve until our 2025 meeting of shareholders, and our Class III directors will serve until our 2026 meeting of shareholders. In addition, our Certificate provides that our directors may be removed with or without cause by the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the voting power of our outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class for so long as Vista Equity Partners (“Vista”) holds in the aggregate (directly or indirectly) 40% or more of voting power of the then outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (“Voting Stock”). If Vista no longer holds in the aggregate (directly or indirectly) 40% or more of our Voting Stock, then our directors may be removed only for cause upon the affirmative vote of at least 66 2∕3% of the voting power of our outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote thereon. In addition, our Bylaws provide that a majority of the directors nominated or designated for nomination by Vista may designate the Chair of the Board for so long as Vista beneficially owns at least 30% or more of the voting power of the Voting Stock.
Director Nomination Agreement
In connection with our initial public offering (our “IPO”), we entered into a director nomination agreement (as amended and restated, the “Director Nomination Agreement”) with Vista that provides Vista the right to designate nominees for election to our Board for so long as Vista beneficially owns 5% or more of the total number of shares of our common stock that it owned immediately prior to the completion of our IPO. Vista may also assign its designation rights under the Director Nomination Agreement to an affiliate. The Director Nomination Agreement specifically provides Vista the right to designate: (i) all of the nominees for election to our Board for so long as Vista beneficially owns 40% or more of the total number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by Vista immediately prior to the completion of our IPO, as adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or similar changes in the Company’s capitalization (such amount of shares, as adjusted, the “Original Amount”); (ii) a number of directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to 40% of the total directors for so long as Vista beneficially owns at least 30% and less than 40% of the Original Amount; (iii) a number of directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to 30% of the total directors for so long as Vista beneficially owns at least 20% and less than 30% of the Original Amount; (iv) a number of directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to 20% of the total directors for so long as Vista beneficially owns at least 10% and less than 20% of the Original Amount; and (v) one director for so long as Vista beneficially owns at least 5% and less than 10% of the Original Amount. In each case, Vista’s nominees must comply with applicable law and stock exchange rules, as well as our Corporate Governance Guidelines. In addition, Vista is entitled to designate the replacement for any of its Board designees whose service terminates prior to the end of the director’s term regardless of Vista’s beneficial ownership at such time. Vista also has the right to have its designees participate on committees of our Board proportionate to its stock ownership, subject to compliance with applicable law and stock exchange rules, as well as our Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Director
 
7

 
Nomination Agreement also prohibits us from increasing or decreasing the size of our Board without the prior written consent of Vista. This agreement will terminate at such time as Vista owns less than 5% of the Original Amount.
Shareholder Recommendations for Director Nominees
The Compensation and Nominating Committee will consider shareholder nominations for membership on the Board. For the 2025 annual meeting of shareholders, nominations may be submitted to Jamf Holding Corp., 100 Washington Ave S, Suite 1100, Minneapolis, MN 55401, Attn: Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, and such nominations will then be forwarded to the Chair of the Compensation and Nominating Committee. Recommendations must be in writing and must comply with the timing and other requirements set forth in our Bylaws and under Rule 14a-19(b) of the Exchange Act, if applicable, described in the section entitled “Commonly Asked Questions and Answers About the Annual Meeting — Q: What is the deadline for submitting a shareholder proposal or director nomination for our Annual Meeting to be held in 2025?”.
When filling a vacancy on the Board, the Compensation and Nominating Committee identifies the desired skills and experience of a new director and nominates individuals who it believes can strengthen the Board’s capabilities and further diversify the collective experience and backgrounds represented by the then-current directors. The Compensation and Nominating Committee may engage third parties to assist in the search and provide recommendations. Also, directors are generally asked to recommend candidates for the position. The candidates are then evaluated based on the process outlined in our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the Compensation and Nominating Committee charter, and the same process is used for all candidates, including candidates recommended by shareholders.

The Board has adopted a written charter for the Compensation and Nominating Committee, which is available on the investor relations section of our website at https://ir.jamf.com/corporate-governance/governance-highlights. Our website is not part of this Proxy Statement.
Board Leadership Structure
The following section describes our Board leadership structure, the reasons why the structure is in place at this time, the roles of various positions, and related key governance practices. Our Board believes the mix of experienced independent directors from outside organizations and who are Vista-affiliated, as well
 
14

 
as management directors that make up our Board, along with the role of our Chair and our Board committee composition, benefits Jamf and its shareholders.
Independence; Board Mix
Our Board has an effective mix of independent and management directors. Our Board includes nine independent directors (including our current Chairman Mr. Fosnaugh), as well as our current Chief Executive Officer, John Strosahl and our former Chief Executive Officer, Dean Hager.
Chair / Chief Executive Officer
Our Bylaws provide that that a majority of the directors nominated or designated for nomination by Vista may designate the Chair of the Board for so long as Vista beneficially owns at least 30% or more of our Voting Stock. Mr. Fosnaugh has been our Chair since November 2020. Mr. Fosnaugh has extensive knowledge and experience in a variety of relevant areas acquired through his professional and other experiences, including technology, finance, marketing, business transactions, and mergers and acquisitions. This knowledge and experience gives Mr. Fosnaugh the insight necessary to navigate the responsibilities of strategic development and execution and provide overall guidance to our Chief Executive Officer as to the Board’s views and perspectives.
With respect to the roles of Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, the corporate governance guidelines provide that the roles may be separated or combined, and the Board will exercise its discretion in combining or separating these positions as it deems appropriate in light of prevailing circumstances. The roles of Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer are currently separated. The Board believes that this structure clarifies the individual roles and responsibilities of Chief Executive Officer and Chair of the Board, streamlines decision-making and enhances accountability. The Board believes that, at this time, separating the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer is the most effective leadership structure because it allows Mr. Strosahl to focus on the management of the Company, day-to-day operations and engaging with external stakeholders, while Mr. Fosnaugh focuses his attention on the broad strategic issues considered by the Board, leveraging his strong public company background to provide strategic guidance and effective oversight of management, engaging with the Chief Executive Officer between Board meetings and providing guidance to Mr. Strosahl.
Performance Evaluation
The Board recognizes that a thorough, constructive evaluation process enhances the Board’s effectiveness and is an essential element of good corporate governance. Each year, our Compensation and Nominating Committee conducts a performance evaluation to determine whether the Board, its committees and the directors are functioning effectively. The evaluation process focuses on the contributions to Jamf by the Board and each standing committee of the Board, with an enhanced focus on areas in which the Board or management believes could improve. Written questionnaires solicit feedback on a range of issues, including Board and committee structure and composition; meeting process and dynamics; execution of key responsibilities; interaction with management; interaction with advisors and other parties, such as auditors; and information and resources. Director suggestions for improvements based on evaluation results, as well as to evaluation questionnaires and process, are considered for incorporation for the following year.

Insider Trading; Hedging and Pledging Transactions
We have adopted an Insider Trading Policy that is designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules, and regulations, as well as Nasdaq listing standards. Our Insider Trading Policy prohibits the trading of our securities on the basis of material, non-public information (except pursuant to an approved 10b5-1 trading plan), establishes regular blackout periods wherein certain designated employees are prohibited from trading in our securities and required to obtain pre-clearance during open trading periods, and requires that all insider 10b5-1 plans comply with applicable law, including with respect to cooling off periods. Additionally, we encourage our executive officers and directors to adopt 10b5-1 plans. Pursuant to our Insider Trading Policy, we prohibit our employees, directors, and officers from engaging in hedging transactions, including hedging or monetization transaction mechanisms, such as the use of financial instruments (for example, prepaid variable forwards, equity swaps, collars, and exchange funds). Additionally, directors, officers, and other employees are prohibited from holding our securities in a margin account or otherwise pledging our securities as collateral for a loan.
Risk Oversight
Our management team is responsible for the day-to-day management of risks we face, while our Board, assisted by its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, our Board has the responsibility to ensure the risk management processes our management team has designed and implemented are appropriate and functioning adequately. To that end, our Board believes that open communication between our management team and the Board is essential for effective risk management and oversight. Our Chief Executive Officer and other members of the senior management team attend the meetings of our Board and its committees, as well as such other meetings as the Board or its committees deem appropriate, where, among other topics, they discuss strategy and key risks facing the Company. In this respect, our full Board reviews strategic and operational risk in the context of reports from our management team, and evaluates the risks inherent in significant transactions and events.
Our Board oversees an enterprise-wide approach to risk management, designed to support the achievement of organizational objectives, improve long-term organizational performance, and enhance
 
16

 
shareholder value. A fundamental part of risk management is not only understanding the most significant risks a company faces and what steps management is taking to manage those risks but also understanding what level of risk is appropriate for a given company. The involvement of our full Board in reviewing our business is an integral aspect of its assessment of the Company’s risk profile and also its determination of what constitutes an appropriate level of risk. In connection with its reviews of the operations of our business, our full Board addresses the primary risks associated with our business, such as strategic planning. Our Board appreciates the evolving nature of our business and industry and is actively involved with monitoring new threats and risks as they emerge, especially with respect to cybersecurity, privacy, and information security given the nature of our business.
While our full Board has overall responsibility for risk oversight, our Board committees help fulfill those oversight responsibilities in certain areas of risk. The Audit Committee assists our Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to risk management in the areas of internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures, legal and regulatory compliance, tax, liquidity risk, cybersecurity, and other financial and audit related risks. The Audit Committee discusses with our management team, along with our independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP, on a quarterly basis, guidelines and policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management, reviews our major financial risk exposures, and evaluates the steps our management team has taken to monitor and control these exposures. Our Audit Committee also monitors certain key risks on a regular basis, such as risk associated with internal control over financial reporting, liquidity risk, the timely detection and mitigation of the effects of cybersecurity threats or incidents to Jamf, and other financial and audit-related risks. Our Compensation and Nominating Committee oversees the design and implementation of our compensation policies and programs and monitors the incentives created by these policies and programs. In addition, our Compensation and Nominating Committee oversees our major corporate governance risks, including through monitoring the effectiveness of the Company’s ESG efforts and compliance with our Corporate Governance Guidelines. Our Compensation and Nominating Committee regularly reviews our compensation policies and practices, including the risks created by our compensation plans. We are committed to ensuring our Board and its committees are consistently updated on threats to our business and receive consistent updates on risk mitigation processes.
Code of Ethics
We have adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers, and directors, including those officers responsible for financial reporting. Our Code of Ethics is available on the investor relations section of our website at https://ir.jamf.com/corporate-governance/governance-highlights. We intend to disclose any amendments to the code, or any waivers of its requirements, on our website.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
No interlocking relationships exist between the members of our Board and the board or compensation committee of any other company.
Communications by Shareholders and Other Interested Parties with the Board
Shareholders and other interested parties may contact an individual director, the Board as a group, or a specified Board committee or group, including the independent directors as a group, by sending regular mail to:
Jamf Holding Corp.
100 Washington Ave S, Suite 1100
Minneapolis, MN 55401
ATTN: Board of Directors

17

 
Jamf. Jamf generally will not forward to the directors a communication that is primarily commercial in nature, relates to an improper or irrelevant topic, or requests general information regarding Jamf.
Corporate Responsibility
We recognize the importance of a thoughtful approach to corporate citizenship and sustainability, as we believe operating our business in line with these principles drives long-term value for our stakeholders. We continue to develop our strategies and shape our programs around corporate responsibility. In 2023, we continued our commitment to innovation and responsible business practices through the release of our second Purpose and Impact Report, which provides additional information on our key ESG programs and commitments. Our Purpose and Impact Report is available on the Corporate Responsibility section of our website. Website references in this Proxy Statement are provided for convenience only, and the content on the referenced websites is not incorporated by reference herein. While we believe that our ESG goals align with our long-term growth strategy and financial and operational priorities, they are aspirational and may change, and there can be no assurance that they will be met.

2023 Executive Compensation Program Highlights
Highlights of our 2023 executive compensation program include:

A focus on a total compensation, including base salary and incentive compensation, considered against compensation offered by our peer companies which compete with us for talent;

An annual cash incentive opportunity contingent on the achievement of corporate financial performance, targeted at a percentage of each executive’s base salary, with payout on a sliding scale depending upon the degree to which we achieve our corporate financial goals;

Equity awards, comprised of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), the values of which rise as our stock price rises, and that align the interests of our executives with those of our shareholders; and

Competitive benefits that enable our executives to maintain their health and welfare, and to save for their retirement.
Overview of our Executive Compensation Program
Our executive compensation program is designed to help us attract, retain, and incentivize talented executives, to closely align pay with performance, and to align the interests of our NEOs with those of our shareholders. To further these goals, we tie a meaningful portion of our NEOs’ compensation to the attainment of key performance goals that we believe will help us attain short- and long-term business objectives and create shareholder value. In addition, we grant equity-based compensation to align the interests of our NEOs with those of our shareholders.
 
22

 
The compensation of our NEOs in 2023 consisted of the following elements:
Compensation Element
Purpose
Features
Base salary
To provide a fair and competitive base level of compensation for services rendered Fixed annual salary targeted at the 50th percentile of our peer group
Annual Short-Term Incentive
Compensation
To motivate and reward for achievements relative to our goals and expectations for each fiscal year Annual cash incentive opportunity with payment of a targeted amount contingent on achievement of corporate financial results, with payout on a sliding scale depending on over- or under-achievement of corporate financial results
Equity Incentive Compensation
To align executives’ interests with those of our shareholders and provide an incentive for our executives to remain with us RSUs that vest over time, the values of which rise as our stock price rises, and that align the interests of our executives with those of our shareholders, generally targeted at the 50th percentile of our peer group
Other Benefits
To provide market-competitive benefits to enable our executives to maintain their health and welfare, and to save for their retirement Benefit plans such as medical, dental, and life insurance plans; 401(k) plan; we provide limited executive perquisites and supplemental executive benefits
In addition to our direct compensation elements, the following features of our compensation program are designed to align our executive team with shareholder interests and with market best practices:
What We Do
What We Don’t Do
✓ Maintain an industry-specific peer group for benchmarking pay
× Allow hedging or pledging of equity
✓ Target pay based on market norms
× Allow for re-pricing of option awards
✓ Deliver executive compensation primarily through performance-based cash compensation and RSUs that increase in value based on our share performance
× Provide excessive perquisites
✓ Offer market-competitive benefits for executives that are consistent with the rest of our employees
× Provide supplemental executive retirement plans
✓ Align performance goals for the NEOs with those of the employees generally
× Offer dividend equivalents on unearned RSUs
✓ Consult with an independent compensation consultant on compensation levels and practices
× Provide guaranteed incentive payments
✓ Maintain a clawback policy that complies with Nasdaq’s new clawback rules promulgated under Section 10D of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder
 
23

 
We believe that these features of our executive compensation program benefit the Company as a whole and serve to increase the alignment of incentives between our NEOs and our shareholders.
Process for Determining NEO Compensation
The Compensation and Nominating Committee
The Compensation and Nominating Committee (or, as used in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis and the compensation tables that follow, the “Committee”) oversees our executive compensation program and is responsible for approving the nature and amount of the compensation paid to our NEOs and for generally overseeing our equity compensation plans and awards. As described below, the Committee also works with members of management and obtains advice from an independent compensation consultant in the course of making its compensation decisions.
The Role of Management
Together, our CEO and Chief People Officer (“CPO”) typically review the design of our executive compensation program, working with internal resources, as well as our independent compensation consultant. Based on this review, management may recommend modifications to the executive compensation program for the Committee’s consideration. In addition, our CEO and CPO provide the Committee with an assessment of the Company performance and individual performance of each NEO (other than themselves). Based on this assessment, our CEO and CPO will make recommendations to the Committee regarding the compensation of such NEOs, including the appropriate split between each of the different elements of compensation. In preparing compensation recommendations, our CEO, CPO, and other members of management involved in the compensation process review market compensation data, consisting of peer group data and other supplementary third-party survey data, and benchmark the compensation for our NEOs against such data.
Independent Compensation Consultant
In connection with the design and oversight of our compensation program, the Committee has retained Radford, an independent compensation consulting firm, to provide advice on a broad range of executive and non-employee director compensation-related matters, including the development of a peer group for compensation-setting purposes, and assistance in determining an approach to both equity-based compensation generally as well as competitive levels of cash and equity compensation for our NEOs and non-employee directors. After consideration of the independence assessment factors provided under the Nasdaq listing standards, it was determined that Radford was independent and that the work it performed during 2023 did not raise any conflicts of interest.
Use of Competitive Market Data and Peer Groups
The Committee directs Radford to provide it with competitive market data and analysis based on a select group of peers and companies and published compensation survey data, as well as current market practices and trends, compensation structures, and peer group compensation ranges. The competitive market data Radford provides is based on a compensation peer group selected and approved by the Committee with input and guidance from Radford and published compensation survey data in cases where there is insufficient data for specific executive positions within the peer group companies. The compensation peer group is comprised of companies that are considered similar to us at the time of selection based on industry, business focus, stage of development, company size, geographic location, and various financial criteria, including revenue and market capitalization.
 
24

 
Based on these criteria, our peer group for 2023, as approved by our Committee, was comprised of the following 22 companies:
Altair Engineering Dynatrace PagerDuty Sprout Social
Appfolio Elastic Paylocity SPS Commerce
Asana Everbridge Q2 Varonis Systems
Blackline Five9 Rapid7 Workiva
Ceridian HCM nCino SentinelOne
Domo New Relic Smartsheet
We believe that the compensation practices of our 2023 peer group provided us with appropriate compensation data for evaluating the competitiveness of the compensation of our NEOs during 2023.
Notwithstanding the similarities of the 2023 peer group to Jamf, due to the nature of our business and our industry, we compete for executive talent with many public companies that are larger and more established than we are or that possess greater resources than we do, and with smaller private companies that may be able to offer greater compensation potential. In 2023, cash compensation for our executive officers was generally targeted at the 50th percentile of our 2023 peer group and long-term equity incentive compensation was generally targeted at the 50th percentile of our 2023 peer group. Although the executive compensation was generally targeted per the above, other criteria may be considered, including market factors, the experience level of the executive and the executive’s performance against established company and individual goals, in determining variations to this general target range.
Consideration of Say-On-Pay Advisory Vote
Because we value the opinions of our shareholders, the Board and the Committee will consider the outcome of the most recent and future Say-on-Pay voting results as well as feedback received throughout the year, when making compensation decisions for our executive officers in the future.
Pay Mix
Our Committee oversees the general mix of the elements of our executive compensation programs. It does not target a specific mix of value for the compensation elements within these programs in either the program design or pay decisions. Rather, our Committee reviews the mix of compensation elements to ensure that performance-based compensation is appropriately apportioned to the short-term and long-term to ensure alignment with our business goals, performance and shareholder interests.
Components of Our NEO Compensation Program
Base Salary
Each of our NEOs is paid a base salary. The Committee believes this element of compensation is important because it provides a fixed element of compensation that reflects the individual NEO’s skills, experience, and role. Base salaries are established based on a review of peer group data, if available for a particular position, and other third-party data obtained by our independent compensation consultant; internal pay equity; and each NEO’s skill set, experience, role, responsibilities, and prior year performance. Such base salaries are reviewed annually, and may be adjusted based on such factors and the recommendations
 
25

 
of our CEO and CPO, except with respect to our CEO’s own base salary. The Committee sets our CEO’s base salary. The table below sets forth the annual base salaries for 2023 for each of our NEOs:

Annual Short-Term Cash Incentive Plan
Our annual short-term cash incentive plan for the 2023 fiscal year (the “2023 ACIP”) motivates and rewards our executives for achievements relative to our goals and expectations for each fiscal year. Each NEO has a target cash incentive award opportunity, defined as a percentage of his or her annual base salary (see “— 2023 ACIP NEO Award Targets and Payouts” for each NEO’s target percentage). The dominant considerations in evaluating performance under the 2023 ACIP are our financial performance relative to our plan and achievement of corporate objectives for the year; though our Committee may also consider the individual NEO’s handling of unplanned events and opportunities, as well as the CEO’s input with respect to the performance of our Company and other executives, as appropriate.
Target cash incentive award opportunities are generally determined with respect to the same corporate objectives and formula for all employees eligible to participate under our 2023 ACIP, including our NEOs, and represent a specific percentage of annual base salary.
For each of Messrs. Goodkind, Strosahl, and Wudi and Ms. Lam, their cash incentive award payout was subject to a potential 15% reduction if the Company did not achieve certain objectives for increases in BIPOC representation for each of the general Jamf employee base and Jamf management team. The Committee has included these additional metrics in order to incentivize additional corporate performance goals with respect to inclusion and representation. In addition, for Mr. Hager, his 2023 total cash incentive award opportunity included additional stretch opportunities based on achievement against certain individual Management by Objective (“MBO”) goals, as further described below. The Committee has included these additional MBOs for Mr. Hager in order to incentivize additional corporate performance goals.
2023 Performance Targets
The Committee determines the applicable performance metrics and the performance goals for our ACIP on an annual basis, taking into account, among other things, input from management, our annual operating plan and technical roadmap, and performance projections provided by us to the financial investment community. Our performance goals are set to be challenging, yet achievable. The selected performance
 
26

 
goals are intended to promote the achievement of short-term business objectives and to support our longer-term business strategy. Accordingly, the Committee decided that payments under the 2023 ACIP would depend on the Company’s achievement of ARR and non-GAAP operating income margin targets for 2023 as follows:
Measure
Threshold Value
On-Target Value
Weighting
ARR
$570.0 million
$610.0 million
70%
Non-GAAP operating income margin*
6.2%
7.2%
30%
*
Represents Non-GAAP operating income divided by revenue.
Under the 2023 ACIP, no cash award was payable with respect to a particular measure (ARR or non-GAAP operating income margin) if the percentage achievement was below the threshold (50%) for the applicable target. At threshold attainment, payout begins at 50% of the target bonus. From threshold to target attainment for each performance metric, the payout rate rises linearly from 50% to a maximum of 200% for each performance metric at its applicable weighting percentage.
For Mr. Hager, his 2023 ACIP included an additional $150,000 stretch award opportunity based upon Company achievement against certain MBOs for ARR, non-GAAP operating income, and increases in BIPOC representation for each of the general Jamf employee base and Jamf management. While the Company satisfied the applicable targets under the non-GAAP operating income and BIPOC representation MBOs, the Company did not satisfy the applicable target under the ARR MBO. Accordingly, Mr. Hager did not earn any additional amounts under the stretch award opportunity.
2023 ACIP NEO Award Targets and Payouts
The Committee determined that the Company had achieved ARR performance of $588.6 million and non-GAAP operating income margin performance of approximately 8%, each as described above under “— 2023 Performance Targets.” Accordingly, the weighted payout for its executive officers was approximately 93.3% of target. In addition, the applicable BIPOC representation targets under the 2023 ACIP for Messrs. Goodkind, Strosahl, and Wudi and Ms. Lam were satisfied, and, as a result, their payouts were not subject to reduction.
In light of such achievement, the actual cash incentive award amounts under the 2023 ACIP were approved by our Committee and paid to our NEOs, as set forth in the table below.

Long-Term Equity Incentive Awards
The Committee believes that in order to appropriately incentivize NEOs to create shareholder value, a significant portion of our NEOs’ compensation should be in the form of equity-based compensation. Our long-term incentive program is designed to tie compensation realized to stock price performance and encourage retention of key executives. Our long-term incentive program is a key tool in aligning NEO pay with value creation on behalf of shareholders.
2023 Equity Grants
In 2023, the Committee approved the grant of RSUs to each of our NEOs in connection with our annual equity program, as well as a one-time grant to Mr. Strosahl in connection with his promotion to CEO. The RSUs vest ratably over four years from the date of grant based on the NEO’s continued employment through each vesting date. The vesting of the RSUs may be accelerated under certain prescribed circumstances. Each RSU corresponds in value to a single share of our common stock. On each vesting date, the number of RSUs that vest will be distributed in an equivalent number of shares of our common stock less any shares utilized to satisfy payroll tax obligations.
The Committee granted RSUs to our NEOs in connection with our annual equity program to align the interests of our NEOs with those of our shareholders (since the value of RSUs is tied to our share performance) and to encourage retention through time-based vesting. In particular, the Committee considers competitive RSU grants to be an effective long-term incentive that drives retention and continuity in our executive management team. The Committee granted additional RSUs to Mr. Strosahl in connection with his promotion to CEO in order to align his compensation with his new role and because the Committee believes that this award provides a compelling incentive for Mr. Strosahl in his leadership of Jamf, and will reward his focus on Jamf’s long-term growth strategy.
The Committee set the target grant date equity value of the awards for each NEO based on the factors described above, and in connection with setting such targets the Committee engaged Radford to provide competitive market data and analysis based on a select group of peers and companies and published compensation survey data, as well as information about current market practices and trends. The grant date equity value of the 2023 RSUs granted to each of our NEOs in connection with our annual program, as well as one-time grants is set forth below.

Amounts represent the grant date fair value of RSUs granted to the NEOs as computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 718. The assumptions used in calculating grant-date fair value of the RSUs are set forth in Notes 2 and 10 to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The amounts reported in this column reflect the accounting cost for these RSUs and do not correspond to the actual economic value that may be received by the NEOs for these RSUs.
Employee Benefits
We maintain a tax-qualified retirement plan that provides all of our full-time U.S. employees, including our NEOs, with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax-advantaged basis. Under our 401(k) plan,
 
28

 
participants may elect to defer a portion of their compensation on a pre-tax basis and have it contributed to the plan subject to applicable annual limits under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Pre-tax contributions are allocated to each participant’s individual account and are then invested in selected investment alternatives according to the participants’ directions. Employee elective deferrals are 100% vested at all times. We also provide a 3% employer contribution. As a U.S. tax-qualified retirement plan, contributions to the 401(k) plan and earnings on those contributions are not taxable to the employees until distributed from the 401(k) plan and all contributions are deductible by us when made. Our NEOs participate in our 401(k) plan on the same basis as other eligible employees. We do not maintain any qualified or non-qualified defined benefit plans or supplemental executive retirement plans that cover our NEOs.
All of our full-time U.S. employees, including our NEOs, are eligible to participate in our health and welfare plans, including medical and dental benefits, life insurance benefits, and short-term and long-term disability insurance. Our NEOs participate in these plans on the same basis as other eligible employees. We do not maintain any supplemental health or welfare plans for our NEOs.
We provide perquisites or other personal benefits in limited circumstances, such as where we believe it is appropriate to assist an individual NEO in the performance of his or her duties, to make him or her more efficient and effective, and for recruitment, motivation or retention purposes.
Change in Control and Severance Benefits
We have entered into letter agreements with each of our current NEOs, which provide for severance payments and benefits in connection with certain terminations of employment. In addition, the stock awards granted to our NEOs would vest in connection with a qualifying termination of employment following a change in control. For more information on the payments and benefits provided to our NEOs in connection with certain terminations or a change in control, see “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.”
Compensation Risk Assessment
The Committee regularly reviews our compensation policies and practices, including the risks created by our compensation plans, and has concluded that any risks arising from our compensation policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Tax and Accounting Considerations
The Committee considers the tax and accounting consequences of compensation paid under our executive compensation program. However, the Committee believes that its primary responsibility is to maintain an executive compensation program that attracts, retains, and rewards our NEOs. Accordingly, the Committee has paid, and may continue to pay, in its discretion, compensation that is not fully deductible or is limited as to tax deductibility.
Clawback Policy
The adopted a Clawback Policy (the “Clawback Policy”) that complies with Nasdaq’s new clawback rules promulgated under Section 10D of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder. In the event the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement of its financial statements due to the Company’s material noncompliance with any such financial reporting requirement, the Clawback Policy requires that covered executives must reimburse the Company or forfeit any excess incentive-based compensation “received” ​(as defined under the clawback rules) by such covered executive during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date on which the Company is required to prepare the restatement. Executives covered by the Clawback Policy are current and former executive officers, as determined by the Committee in accordance with Section 10D of the Exchange Act and the Nasdaq listing standards. Incentive-based compensation subject to the Clawback Policy includes any cash or equity compensation that is granted, earned or vested based wholly or in part on the attainment of a financial reporting measure. The amount subject to recovery is the excess of the incentive-based compensation received based on the erroneous data over the incentive-based compensation that would have been received had it been based on the restated results. The Clawback Policy will only apply to incentive-based compensation received on or after October 2, 2023.

Under Mr. Strosahl’s employment letter agreement, upon a termination of Mr. Strosahl’s employment by the Company without Cause or by Mr. Strosahl for Good Reason (as those terms are defined in the employment letter agreement) (each, a “Qualifying Termination”) and subject to Mr. Strosahl’s execution of a separation and release agreement, Mr. Strosahl would receive or be eligible for (as applicable), in addition to any Accrued Amounts (as defined below): (A) a cash severance payment for the applicable severance period (as described below); (B) amounts due for COBRA continuation coverage for the applicable severance period (as described below) (subject to eligibility); and (C) acceleration of 50% of Mr. Strosahl’s then outstanding unvested equity awards that vest based on continued employment or service; provided that, in the event a Qualifying Termination occurs during a Change of Control Period (as discussed further below), (x) the Company would additionally be obligated to pay Mr. Strosahl a prorated bonus for the calendar year that includes the termination date based on deemed achievement of the performance criteria at target levels and (y) 100% of Mr. Strosahl’s then outstanding unvested equity awards that vest based on continued employment or service would accelerate and vest as of the termination date. “Accrued Amounts” include (i) any unpaid base salary through the termination date; (ii) any bonus earned but unpaid with respect to the calendar year ending on or preceding the termination date; (iii) any accrued but unused vacation, payable in accordance with the Company’s vacation policy as in effect on the termination date; and (iv) reimbursement for any unreimbursed business expenses incurred through the termination date.
Under the employment letter agreements for each of Messrs. Goodkind and Wudi and Ms. Lam, in the event of a Qualifying Termination and subject to the applicable NEO’s execution of a separation and release agreement, the NEO would receive or be eligible for (as applicable), in addition to any Accrued Amounts: (A) a cash severance payment for the applicable severance period (as described below); and (B) amounts due for COBRA continuation coverage for the applicable severance period (as described below); provided, that in the event a Qualifying Termination occurs during a Change of Control Period (as discussed further below), (x) the Company would additionally be obligated to pay the NEO a prorated bonus for the calendar year that includes the termination date based on deemed achievement of the performance criteria at target levels and (y) 100% of the NEO’s then outstanding unvested equity awards that vest based on continued employment or service would accelerate and vest as of the termination date.
Under Ms. Tschida’s employment letter agreement, in the event of a Qualifying Termination and subject to Ms. Tschida’s execution of a separation and release agreement, Ms. Tschida would receive a cash severance payment for the applicable severance period (as described below).
The applicable severance periods for our current NEOs are as set forth below:

The Change of Control Period means the one-year period immediately following a Change of Control and the three-month period immediately preceding a Change of Control. Change of Control has the meaning set forth in the 2020 Plan (as defined below).
Pursuant to terms of the employment letter agreements as described above, the RSUs granted to certain of our NEOs would vest upon a Qualifying Termination.
The amount of compensation and benefits payable to each current NEO under their existing employment agreements in various termination and change in control situations has been estimated in the tables below. Cash severance amounts were calculated based on the NEO’s base salary as in effect on December 31, 2023 and the NEO’s target 2023 ACIP payout for a qualifying termination with change in control. As applicable, the value of the equity vesting acceleration was calculated for each of the tables below based on the assumption that the change in control and the NEO’s employment termination occurred on

December 31, 2023. The per share closing price of the Company’s stock on the Nasdaq as of December 29, 2023 was $18.06, which was used as the value of the Company’s stock in the change in control. The value of RSU vesting acceleration was calculated by multiplying the number of unvested RSUs subject to vesting acceleration as of December 31, 2023, by the per share closing price of the Company’s stock as of December 29, 2023.

CEO Transition
Mr. Hager retired from his position as our CEO, effective September 2, 2023. See “Compensation Discussion and Analysis — CEO Transition.” In connection with the CEO transition, among other things, (i) Mr. Hager’s 2023 ACIP payout was prorated through September 2, 2022 (valued at approximately $225,000 at the target payout), (ii) Mr. Hager was entitled to continue to vest in his outstanding equity awards so long as he continues to serve on our Board (based on the closing price of our common stock on December 29, 2023 of $18.06, the value of Mr. Hager’s retained RSU awards eligible for continued vesting through his transition end date was approximately $6.8 million), and (iii) Mr. Hager continues to be eligible to exercise his vested options so long as he continues as a member of our Board (based on the closing price of our common stock on December 29, 2023 of $18.06, less the applicable exercise price, the value of Mr. Hager’s retained stock option awards held at December 31, 2023 was approximately $21.1 million).
CEO Pay Ratio
Pursuant to Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are required to disclose the ratio of the annual total compensation of our principal executive officer (“PEO”) to the median of the annual total compensation of all of our employees other than our PEO.
Because we have had no changes to our employee population or compensation arrangements that would significantly impact our pay ratio disclosure, the employee representing the median paid employee for 2023 is the same employee selected for 2022.
We had two CEOs who served us during 2023, Mr. Hager our former CEO, and Mr. Strosahl, our current CEO. As permitted under the rules, we chose to use Mr. Hager for the pay ratio calculation because Mr. Hager served as CEO for the majority of the fiscal year. For 2023, the annualized total compensation for Mr. Hager was $4,126,351, and the annual total compensation for our median employee was $100,489, resulting in an estimated pay ratio of approximately 41:1.
The pay ratio reported above is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our internal records and the methodology described above. The SEC rules for identifying the median
 
37

 
compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices. Accordingly, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies have different employee populations and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates, and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.
Pay Versus Performance

Relationship between CAP and ARR, Net Income, TSR, and Peer Group TSR
The former PEO CAP and the average Other NEO CAP decreased in 2023. The current PEO CAP increased in 2023. The decrease in each of former PEO CAP and the average Other NEO CAP in 2023 was largely the result of the decrease in fair value of awards granted prior fiscal years that were outstanding and unvested at December 31, 2023. The increase in current PEO CAP was largely the result of the CEO promotion grant described more fully above in Compensation Discussion and Analysis — Long-Term Equity Incentive Awards — 2023 Equity Grants.”
Jamf’s Net Income and ARR increased for the covered period and was directionally in line with current PEO CAP, whereas former PEO CAP and the average Other NEO CAP decreased over the covered period. In addition, Jamf’s cumulative TSR ended lower than the cumulative TSR of Jamf’s Peer Group for the covered period, and was directionally in line with former PEO CAP and the average Other NEO CAP, whereas current PEO CAP increased over the covered period.

2023 Performance Measures
We consider the list below to be Jamf’s most important metrics that link compensation paid to our NEOs, as they are the key metrics that determine the payout of Jamf’s ACIP, as well as certain management MBOs. For more information on the 2023 ACIP and actual payouts thereunder for each NEO, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis — Annual Short-Term Cash Incentive Plan” beginning on page 26 of this Proxy Statement. The performance measures included in this table are not ranked by relative importance.

Equity Incentives — 2017 Stock Option Plan
The 2017 Plan was originally adopted by our Board and approved by our shareholders in connection with Vista’s acquisition of Jamf. Under the 2017 Plan, we have reserved for issuance an aggregate of 8,470,000 shares of our common stock. The number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance is subject to automatic adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, or other change in our capitalization.
Our Compensation and Nominating Committee is the administrator of the 2017 Plan. The administrator has full power to select, from among the individuals eligible for awards, the individuals to whom awards will be granted, and to determine the specific terms and conditions of each award. The administrator is authorized to exercise its discretion to reduce the exercise price of outstanding stock options or effect the repricing of such awards through cancellation and re-grants without shareholder approval.
Our Board determined not to make any further awards under the 2017 Plan following the completion of our IPO.

Equity and Cash Incentives — 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan
Our 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) was adopted by our Board and approved by our shareholders in connection with our IPO. Under the 2020 Plan, employees, consultants, and directors of our Company and our affiliates performing services for us, including our executive officers, are eligible to receive awards. The 2020 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, bonus stock, dividend equivalents, other stock-based awards, substitute awards, annual incentive awards, and performance awards intended to align the interests of participants with those of our shareholders. We initially reserved 14,800,000 shares of our common stock for issuance under the 2020 Plan. The total number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan increases on January 1st of each of the first 10 calendar years during the term of the 2020 Plan by the lesser of: (i) a number of shares of our common stock equal to 4% of the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding on December 31st of the preceding calendar year or (ii) a number of shares of our common stock as determined by our Board.
The 2020 Plan is administered by our Compensation and Nominating Committee. The Compensation and Nominating Committee has the authority to construe and interpret the 2020 Plan, grant awards and make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the plan. Awards under the 2020 Plan may be made subject to “performance conditions” and other terms.
2021 ESPP
The 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2021 ESPP”) was adopted by our Board in March 2021 and approved by our shareholders in May 2021. The 2021 ESPP grants employees the ability to designate a portion of their base pay to purchase shares at a price equal to 85% of the fair market value of our shares on the first or last day of each 6-month purchase period. Shares are purchased on the last day of the purchase period. Currently, any officer of the Company subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act is not eligible to participate in the 2021 ESPP. The total number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2021 ESPP increases on January 1st of each of the first 10 calendar years after the first offering date by the lesser of: (i) a number of shares of our common stock equal to 1% of the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding on December 31st of the preceding calendar year or (ii) the number of shares of our common stock as determined by the plan administrator.
Equity Compensation Plan Information
The following table provides information as of December 31, 2023, regarding shares of our common stock that may be issued under our equity compensation plans, consisting of the 2017 Plan, the 2020 Plan, and the 2021 ESPP.

As December 31, 2023, the number of shares reserved for issuance under our 2017 Plan, 2020 Plan, and 2021 ESPP were 8,470,000 shares, 29,183,546 shares, and 5,425,961 shares, respectively, subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, or other change in our capitalization. The number of shares reserved for issuance under our 2020 Plan automatically increases each January 1st of each of the first 10 calendar years during the term of the 2020 Plan by 4% of the outstanding number of shares of our common stock on the immediately preceding December 31st or such lesser number of shares as determined by our Board. The total number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2021 ESPP automatically increases on January 1st of each of the first 10 calendar years after the first offering date by a number of shares of our common stock equal to 1% of the total number of shares of our

common stock outstanding on December 31st of the preceding calendar year or such lesser number of shares as determined by the plan administrator. The shares of common stock underlying any awards that are forfeited, cancelled, held back upon exercise or settlement of an award to satisfy the exercise price or tax withholding, reacquired by us prior to vesting, satisfied without the issuance of stock, expire, or are otherwise terminated, other than by exercise, under the 2017 Plan and 2020 Plan will be added back to the shares of common stock available for issuance under such plans.
(2)
Includes 2,594,622 shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding return target options, 1,048,885 shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding service options, and 10,551,679 shares issuable upon the vesting of outstanding RSUs.
(3)
As RSUs do not have an exercise price, such units are not included in the weighted average exercise price calculation.
(4)
As of December 31, 2023, there are 128,928 shares available for grant under our 2017 Plan, 13,716,641 shares available for grant under our 2020 Plan, and 4,697,650 shares available for grant under the 2021 ESPP. We no longer make grants under the 2017 Plan.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Policies for Approval of Related Party Transactions
We have adopted a written policy with respect to the review, approval and ratification of related party transactions. Under the policy, our Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving related party transactions. In the course of its review and approval of related party transactions, our Audit Committee will consider the relevant facts and circumstances to decide whether to approve such transactions. In particular, our policy requires our Audit Committee to consider, among other factors it deems appropriate:

the related person’s relationship to us and interest in the transaction;

the material facts of the proposed transaction, including the proposed aggregate value of the transaction;

the impact on a director’s independence in the event the related person is a director or an immediate family member of the director;

the benefits to us of the proposed transaction;

if applicable, the availability of other sources of comparable products or services; and

an assessment of whether the proposed transaction is on terms that are comparable to the terms available to an unrelated third party or to employees generally.
The Audit Committee may only approve those transactions that are in, or are not inconsistent with, our best interests and those of our shareholders, as the Audit Committee determines in good faith.
In addition, under our Code of Ethics our employees and directors will have an affirmative responsibility to disclose any transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest.
Related Party Transactions
Other than compensation arrangements for our directors and NEOs, which are described in the section entitled “Executive Compensation” and “Director Compensation,” below we describe transactions during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 to which we were a participant or will be a participant, in which:

the amounts involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000; and

any of our directors, executive officers, or holders of more than 5% of our capital stock, or any member of the immediate family of, or person sharing the household with, the foregoing persons, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
Director Nomination Agreement
For more information on the Director Nomination Agreement that we are party to with Vista, see “Board of Directors and Corporate Governance — Director Nomination Agreement.”
David Breach, Michael Fosnaugh, Charles Guan, Christina Lema, and Martin Taylor, five of our current directors, are employed as President and Chief Operating Officer; Senior Managing Director; Vice President; Deputy Chief Legal Officer; and Senior Managing Director, respectively, of Vista.
Registration Rights Agreement
We are party to a registration rights agreement with Vista. Vista is entitled to request that we register Vista’s shares on a long-form or short-form registration statement on one or more occasions in the future, which registrations may be “shelf registrations.” Vista is also entitled to participate in certain of our registered offerings, subject to the restrictions in the registration rights agreement. We will pay Vista’s expenses in connection with Vista’s exercise of these rights. The registration rights described in this paragraph apply to (i) shares of our common stock held by Vista and its affiliates and (ii) any of our capital stock (or that of our subsidiaries) issued or issuable with respect to the common stock described in clause (i) with respect to any
 
45

 
dividend, distribution, recapitalization, reorganization, or certain other corporate transactions (“Registrable Securities”). These registration rights are also for the benefit of any subsequent holder of Registrable Securities; provided that any particular securities will cease to be Registrable Securities when they have been sold in a registered public offering, sold in compliance with Rule 144 of the Securities Act, or repurchased by us or our subsidiaries. In addition, with the consent of the Company and holders of a majority of Registrable Securities, any Registrable Securities held by a person other than Vista and its affiliates will cease to be Registrable Securities if they can be sold without limitation under Rule 144 of the Securities Act.
Indemnification of Officers and Directors
We are party to indemnification agreements with each of our executive officers and directors. The indemnification agreements provide the executive officers and directors with contractual rights to indemnification, expense advancement, and reimbursement, to the fullest extent permitted under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Additionally, we may enter into indemnification agreements with any new directors or officers that may be broader in scope than the specific indemnification provisions contained in Delaware law.
Relationship with VCG
We utilize Vista Consulting Group, LLC (“VCG”), the operating and consulting arm of Vista, for consulting services, reimburse VCG for expenses related to participation by Jamf employees in VCG sponsored events, and additionally pay VCG for related fees and expenses. In connection therewith, we paid VCG $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Arrangements with Companies Controlled by Vista
We purchased services annually from certain companies controlled by Vista. We paid such companies approximately $1.2 million in the aggregate during the year ended December 31, 2023. We believe all of these arrangements are on comparable terms that are provided to unrelated third parties.
We received payments annually from certain companies controlled by Vista of $0.3 million in the aggregate during the year ended December 31, 2023. We believe all of these arrangements are on comparable terms that are provided to unrelated third parties.
Lease Arrangements
The Company has an ongoing lease agreement for office space in Eau Claire, WI with an entity in which Mr. Wudi, our Chief Innovation Officer, is a minority owner. The lease terms are consistent with market rates. The Company paid $1.1 million to the lessor entity for year ended December 31, 2023.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth information about the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of April 1, 2024 for:

each person or group known to us who beneficially owns more than 5% of our common stock;

each of our directors;

each of our NEOs; and

all of our directors and executive officers as a group.
Each shareholder’s percentage ownership is based on 128,333,366 shares of common stock outstanding as of April 1, 2024. Beneficial ownership for the purposes of the following table is determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These rules generally provide that a person is the beneficial owner of securities if such person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting thereof, or to dispose or direct the disposition thereof or has the right to acquire such powers within 60 days. Common stock subject to options or RSUs that are currently exercisable or exercisable or will vest within 60 days of April 1, 2024 are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding the options or RSUs. These shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as disclosed in the footnotes to this table and subject to applicable community property laws, we believe that each shareholder identified in the table possesses sole voting and investment power over all common stock shown as beneficially owned by the shareholder.
Unless otherwise noted below, the address of each beneficial owner listed on the table is c/o Jamf Holding Corp., 100 Washington Ave S., Suite 1100, Minneapolis, MN 55401. Beneficial ownership representing less than 1% is denoted with an asterisk (*).

PROPOSAL 2 — ADVISORY VOTE ON JAMF’S EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
(SAY-ON-PAY PROPOSAL)
Section 14A of the Exchange Act (which was added by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act) requires that we provide shareholders with the opportunity to vote to approve, on an advisory and non-binding basis, the compensation of our NEOs (commonly known as a “say-on-pay” vote). At our 2022 annual meeting of shareholders, a majority of our shareholders voted, consistent with the recommendation of our Board, to hold an annual say-on-pay vote. The annual vote will continue unless our shareholders vote, at our 2028 annual meeting of shareholders, to approve a different say-on-pay vote frequency, as required pursuant to Section 14(A) of the Exchange Act. Our Board believes that an annual advisory vote on a resolution to approve executive compensation allows our shareholders to provide us with their regular, direct input on our compensation philosophy, policies and practices.
We are asking shareholders to approve, on an advisory and non-binding basis, the compensation of our NEOs in 2023, as disclosed in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the “Summary Compensation Table,” and the related compensation tables and narrative disclosure. Although this advisory vote is not binding, our Board and the Compensation and Nominating Committee value our shareholders’ opinions and the Compensation and Nominating Committee intends to consider the voting results when evaluating our executive compensation program and determining the compensation of our executives in the future.
As described in detail in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this Proxy Statement, our executive compensation programs are designed to help us attract, retain, and incentivize talented executives, to closely align pay with performance, and to align the interests of our NEOs with those of our shareholders. We believe in promoting a pay-for-performance culture, and, accordingly, as described in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this Proxy Statement, the Compensation and Nominating Committee has tied a meaningful portion of our NEOs’ compensation to the attainment of key performance goals that we believe will help us attain short- and long-term business objectives and create shareholder value. Please read the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section for additional details about our executive compensation objectives, philosophy, and programs, along with the compensation paid to our NEOs with respect to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and the rationale for such compensation.
Shareholders are being asked to approve the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:
“RESOLVED, that the shareholders of the Company approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in the Company’s proxy statement for its 2024 annual meeting of shareholders pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section and the accompanying compensation tables and related narrative disclosure.”
The Board recommends a vote “FOR” the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our NEOs as described in this Proxy Statement.

PROPOSAL 3 — RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Audit Committee has appointed Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2024. Services provided to the Company and its subsidiaries by Ernst & Young LLP for the year ended December 31, 2023 are described below and under “Audit Committee Report.”
Fees and Services
The following table summarizes the aggregate fees for professional audit services and other services rendered by Ernst & Young LLP for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022:
2023
2022
Audit Fees(1)
$ 2,234,163 $ 2,272,100
Audit-Related Fees(2)
$ 303,713 $ 410,000
Tax Fees(3)
$ 165,000 $
All Other Fees(4)
$ 3,600 $ 4,890
(1)
Audit fees consist of fees and expenses for the annual audit of our consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, the quarterly reviews of our consolidated financial statements included in Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, accounting consultations, and services related to other regulatory filings made with the SEC, including fees related to our secondary offerings for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
(2)
Audit-Related fees consist of fees and expenses related to due diligence for acquisitions.
(3)
Tax fees consist of fees and expenses for tax advisory services related to acquisitions.
(4)
All other fees include fees and expenses for advisory services related to acquisitions and fees for access to online research software.
In considering the nature of the services provided by the independent auditor, the Audit Committee determined that such services are compatible with the provision of independent audit services. The Audit Committee discussed these services with the independent auditor and Jamf management to determine that they are permitted under the rules and regulations concerning auditor independence promulgated by the SEC to implement the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
The Audit Committee has adopted a policy that requires advance approval of all audit services as well as non-audit services, regardless of cost, to the extent required by the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Unless the specific service has been previously pre-approved with respect to that year, the Audit Committee must approve the permitted service before the independent auditor is engaged to perform it. The Audit Committee may consider the amount or range of estimated fees as a factor in determining whether a proposed service would impair the registered public accounting firm’s independence. Requests or applications to provide services that require separate approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Audit Committee by both the independent registered public accounting firm and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer or the Chief Accounting Officer and must include a joint statement as to whether, in their view, the request or application is consistent with the SEC’s and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s (“PCAOB”) rules on registered public accounting firm independence.
The Audit Committee approved all services provided by Ernst & Young LLP. Representatives of Ernst & Young LLP are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. They will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so, and we expect that they will be available to respond to questions.
Ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the capital stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. If Jamf’s shareholders do not ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP, the Audit Committee will reconsider the appointment and may affirm the appointment or retain another

independent accounting firm. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee may in the future replace Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm if it is determined that it is in Jamf’s best interests to do so.
The Audit Committee and the Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2024.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT
The Audit Committee oversees our financial reporting process on behalf of the Board. The Audit Committee is composed of three independent directors (as defined by the Nasdaq listing standards) and met four times in 2023. Our Audit Committee operates under a written charter, which is posted on the investor relations section of our website. As provided in the charter, the Audit Committee’s oversight responsibilities include monitoring the integrity of our financial statements (including reviewing financial information, the systems of internal controls, the audit process, and the independence and performance of our internal audit function and independent registered public accounting firm) and our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. However, management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including our systems of internal controls. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee:

reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 with our management;

discussed with our independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP, the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and the SEC; and

received the written disclosures and the letter from Ernst & Young LLP required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding Ernst & Young LLP’s communications with the audit committee concerning independence, and has discussed with Ernst & Young LLP the independence of Ernst & Young LLP.
Based on the Audit Committee’s review and discussions noted above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Kevin Klausmeyer, Chair

APPENDIX A
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe the non-GAAP measures of non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP operating income are useful in evaluating our operating performance. We believe that this non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to shareholders because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance and assists in comparisons with other companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP information to supplement their GAAP results. The non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly-titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by our management about which expenses are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliation tables of the most comparable GAAP financial measures to these non-GAAP financial measures are set forth below. We strongly encourage shareholders to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not rely solely on any single financial measurement or communication.
Non-GAAP Gross Profit
We define non-GAAP gross profit as gross profit, adjusted for amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expense, payroll taxes related to stock-based compensation, and system transformation costs. A reconciliation of non-GAAP gross profit to gross profit, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is as follows:

System transformation costs

Non-GAAP gross profit
$ 460,132 $ 390,042
Non-GAAP Operating Income
We define non-GAAP operating income as operating loss, adjusted for amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expense, acquisition-related earnout, offering costs, payroll taxes related to stock-based compensation, system transformation costs, restructuring charges, and extraordinary legal settlements and other non-recurring litigation costs. A reconciliation of non-GAAP operating income to operating loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is as follows:
