"As our company continues to grow and expand into new markets, all of our team members help us achieve success with a company culture centered around integrity, safety, innovation, and sustainable growth,” said PGT Innovations CEO and President Jeff Jackson. "To thank our hard-working team members, we will invest approximately $4 million over the next three years for this unprecedented restricted stock grant. We hope that it fuels our team’s pride of ownership and rewards them for their great work, which has helped propel PGT Innovations to be a national leader in the premium window and door manufacturing industry.”

All team members who have worked at PGT Innovations for one year or longer, and are not already participants in the company’s annual long-term incentive plan, will receive a grant of restricted stock in January 2019. On the third anniversary of the grant date, employees who had one-to-two years of service as of the grant date will be given 50 shares of PGTI common stock, team members who had two-to-five years of service as of the grant date will receive 75 shares of PGTI common stock, and employees with over five years of employment as of the grant date will be awarded with 100 shares of PGTI common stock. Current employees with less than one year of service will receive their grant of restricted stock in January 2020.

In July 2018, the company announced a one-time stock grant that provided 10 shares of common stock to each of its team members who were not already participants in the company’s annual long-term incentive plan. This marked the first time that every employee at PGT Innovations became a company shareholder.
