A.    Proposals

Proposal 1: Election of Directors

There are 10 nominees for election to our Board of Directors. The directors elected will hold office until the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or until their successors have been elected and qualified. Under our Bylaws, directors must retire by the close of the first annual meeting of stockholders held after they reach age 72, unless the Board determines that it is in the best interests of DXC and its stockholders for the director to continue to serve until the close of a subsequent annual meeting. Each nominee has informed the Board that he or she is willing to serve as a director.

Vote Required

In uncontested elections, director nominees are elected if the number of votes cast for such nominee’s election exceeds the number of votes cast against such nominee’s election. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the vote for this proposal.

In accordance with DXC’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, if an incumbent director nominee fails to receive the requisite number of votes, such director nominee shall promptly tender his or her resignation for consideration by the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee.

Director Nomination Process

The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing and assessing with the Board the appropriate skills, experience, and background sought for Board members in the context of our business and then-current membership on the Board. This assessment of Board skills, experience, and background involves considering numerous diverse factors including independence, experience, professional and personal ethics and values, age, gender and ethnic diversity, as well as skills and attributes. Our Board is committed to actively seeking women and minority director candidates for consideration.

The Board seeks directors whose expertise achieves a balance across the following skills and attributes:

The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee also considers skills and experience related to Environmental, Social and Governance matters as it believes it strengthens the Board’s oversight and ensures that strategic business imperatives and long-term value creation are achieved within a reasonable, sustainable business model.

In addition to the skills and expertise listed above, the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee and the Board also believe that the following key attributes are important to an effective Board:

In evaluating potential director nominees, the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee considers the applicable qualifications. The committee then considers the contribution they would make to the quality of the Board’s decision making and effectiveness.

The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee will also consider potential director candidates recommended by stockholders as described under Business for 2023 Annual Meeting at the end of this proxy statement. This committee may retain from time-to-time third-party search firms to identify qualified director candidates and to assist the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee in evaluating candidates identified by others.

2022 Director Nominees

Each of the nominees has a strong reputation and experience in areas relevant to the strategy and operations of DXC’s businesses, particularly industries and growth segments that DXC serves, as noted above. Each of the nominees holds or has held senior executive positions in global, complex organizations or has relevant operating experience. In these positions, they have also gained experience in core management skills, such as strategic and financial planning, public company financial reporting, corporate governance, risk management, thought leadership, executive management and leadership refreshment. Many of our directors also have experience serving on boards of directors and board committees of other public companies.

Board Skills Matrix

The following chart provides summary information about each of our director nominees’ skills and attributes. More detailed information is provided in each director nominee’s biography.

Board Diversity and Refreshment

The Board believes that maintaining a diverse membership with varying backgrounds, skills, expertise and other personal characteristics promotes inclusiveness, enhances the Board’s deliberations and enables the Board to better represent all of DXC’s constituents, including its diverse customer base and workforce. Accordingly, the Board is committed to regular renewal and refreshment and seeking out highly qualified candidates with diverse backgrounds, skills and experiences as part of each Board candidate search undertaken, including actively seeking women and minority director candidates for consideration.

The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee, which oversees succession planning for the Board and makes recommendations regarding key leadership roles on the Board and its committees, regularly reviews the composition of our Board and assesses the skills and characteristics of our directors with a view towards enhancing the composition of our Board to support the Company’s evolving strategy. Likewise, on an annual basis, committee assignments are reviewed to discuss whether rotation of Committee members and committee chairs is appropriate to introduce fresh perspectives and to broaden and diversify the views and experiences represented on the Board’s committees.

Our Board believes that these considerations and goals, together with the Board’s Annual Evaluation and the Board Retirement policy based on age limit of 72, are important factors in the Board’s refreshment efforts. Since August 2020, we have welcomed five new directors to the Board, two of whom are women and two others of whom are from a racial / ethnic minority group, and each of whom brings extensive experience and fresh perspectives to enrich Board dialogue and enhance the Board’s ability to continue to effectively oversee our business. Raul J. Fernandez was nominated for election as director at our 2020 annual meeting of stockholders, we appointed Dawn Rogers and Akihiko Washington to our Board in March 2021 and, most recently, we appointed Carrie Teffner to our Board in April 2022.

The majority of our Board is diverse based on directors’ self-identified gender, race, ethnicity and/or nationality.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the election of

each of these 10 nominees for director.

Proposal 2: Ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023

The Audit Committee has appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP as DXC’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, and the Board asks stockholders to ratify that appointment. Although current law, rules, and regulations, as well as the charter of the Audit Committee, require the Audit Committee to engage, retain, and oversee DXC’s independent registered public accounting firm, the Board considers the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm to be an important matter of stockholder concern and is submitting the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP for ratification by stockholders as a matter of good corporate practice. The Board considers the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as DXC’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023 to be in the best interests of DXC and its stockholders. A representative from Deloitte & Touche LLP will attend the meeting and will have the opportunity to make a statement and respond to appropriate questions.

If stockholders do not ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Audit Committee will consider whether it is appropriate to appoint a different independent registered public accounting firm.

Vote Required

The affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the shares of common stock present in person (virtually) or represented by proxy and voting at the meeting is required to approve the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as DXC’s independent auditor for the current fiscal year. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the vote for this proposal.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the ratification

of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public

accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023.

Fees

The following table summarizes the aggregate fees billed by DXC’s principal accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, the member firms of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited, and their respective affiliates, which include Deloitte Tax LLP and Deloitte Consulting LLP (Deloitte), for services provided to DXC during fiscal years 2022 and 2021.

Pre-Approval Policy

Pursuant to its charter, and in accordance with Section 10A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), the Audit Committee pre-approves all audit, audit-related, tax and other services to be provided by the independent auditors. The Audit Committee may delegate to one or more members of the Audit Committee the authority to pre-approve services to be provided by the independent auditors. Such pre-approval decisions of any Audit Committee member to whom such authority is delegated must be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

Proposal 3: Non-Binding Advisory Vote to Approve Our Named Executive Officer Compensation

In accordance with Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, we are providing our stockholders the opportunity to approve, on a nonbinding, advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement. We urge the stockholders to read the CD&A appearing elsewhere in this proxy statement, as well as the 2022 Summary Compensation Table and related compensation tables and narrative, which provide detailed information on the compensation policies and practices and the compensation paid to our named executive officers in fiscal 2022, as well as compensation design considerations for fiscal year 2023.

We are therefore asking our stockholders to approve the following advisory resolution at the 2022 Annual Meeting:

RESOLVED, that the stockholders of DXC Technology Company approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers, as disclosed in the DXC Technology Company 2022 definitive proxy statement pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and the accompanying footnotes and narratives.

The vote on the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement is advisory, and therefore not binding on DXC, the Compensation Committee or our Board. Our Board and our Compensation Committee value the opinions of our stockholders. To the extent there is any significant vote against the named executive officer compensation as disclosed in this proxy statement, we will consider our stockholders’ concerns and the Compensation Committee will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address those concerns. We have determined that our stockholders should cast an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers on an annual basis. Unless this determination changes, the next advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers will be at the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Vote Required

The affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the shares of common stock present in person (virtually) or represented by proxy and voting at the meeting is required to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and the accompanying footnotes and narratives. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the vote for this proposal.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the advisory resolution to approve our

named executive officer compensation.

B. Corporate Governance

The Board

DXC is committed to maintaining the highest standards of corporate governance. The Board’s responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

The Board discharges its responsibilities through regularly scheduled meetings as well as telephonic meetings, action by written consent and other communications with management, as appropriate. DXC expects directors to attend all meetings of the Board and the Board committees upon which they serve, and all annual meetings of DXC’s stockholders at which they are standing for election or re-election as directors.

In this section, we describe some of our key governance policies and practices.

Corporate Governance Guidelines

The Board adheres to governance principles designed to ensure excellence in the execution of its duties and regularly reviews the company’s governance policies and practices. These principles are outlined in DXC’s Corporate Governance Guidelines (Guidelines), which, in conjunction with our Articles of Incorporation (Articles of Incorporation), Bylaws (Bylaws), Code of Conduct (Code of Conduct), Board committee charters and related policies, form the framework for the effective governance of DXC.

The full text of the Guidelines, the charters for each of the Board committees, the Code of Conduct and DXC’s Equity Grant Policy, Related Party Transactions Policy and Executive Compensation Clawback Policy are available on DXC’s website, www.dxc.com, under About Us/Leadership and Governance. These materials are also available in print to any person, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-703-245-9700 or writing to Investor Relations, DXC Technology Company, 20408 Bashan Drive, Suite 231, Ashburn, VA 20147. Information on our website is not, and shall not be, deemed to be a part of this Proxy Statement or incorporated into any other filings DXC makes with the SEC.

Board Leadership Structure

Current:

Currently, our Board leadership structure consists of a Chairman, a Chief Executive Officer and independent chairs for our Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee. Ian C. Read has served as Chairman of our Board since March 16, 2020 and, as previously announced, will retire from our Board at the 2022 Annual Meeting.

Effective after our 2022 Annual Meeting:

Effective July 26, 2022, our leadership structure will consist of a Chairman and CEO, a Lead Independent Director and independent committee chairs.

Combination of CEO and Board Chairman Positions

DXC’s Guidelines enable the Board to determine the appropriate Board leadership structure for the Company and allow the roles of Chairman of the Board and CEO to be filled by the same or different individuals. This approach allows the Board flexibility to determine whether the two roles should be separate or combined based upon the Company’s unique individual circumstances and the Board’s assessment of the Company’s leadership from time to time.

The Board regularly considers different structures as circumstances may warrant. The succession planning discussions following Mr. Read’s retirement as Chairman of the Board, effective at our 2022 Annual Meeting, included discussions on the Board leadership structure, including the merits of keeping separate or combining the Chairman and CEO roles. The Board considered several factors, including: the strategic goals of the Company, the status of DXC’s progress with respect to our transformation journey, the various capabilities of our directors, the dynamics of our Board, and best practices in the market. The Board also reflected upon the Company’s independent oversight function exercised by our Board, which consists entirely of independent directors other than Mr. Salvino, as well as the independent leadership to be provided by Mr. Herzog and each of the three standing Board Committees, which consist solely of, and are chaired by, independent directors.

Based on the above, the independent directors of the Board determined that, upon Mr. Read’s retirement as Chairman effective at the 2022 Annual Meeting, a combined Chairman and CEO structure, together with a Lead Independent Director with clearly defined and robust responsibilities, provides the most effective leadership structure for the Company at this time. As Lead Independent Director, Mr. Herzog will have the following duties and responsibilities:

DXC’s governance processes include executive sessions of the independent directors after the conclusion of each regularly scheduled Board meeting, annual evaluations by the independent directors of the CEO’s performance, succession planning, annual Board and committee self-assessments, and the various governance processes contained in the Guidelines and the Board committee charters.

Director Independence

Independent Directors. The Board assesses the independence of our directors and examines the nature and extent of any relations between the Company and our directors, their families and their affiliates. The Guidelines provide that a director is “independent” if he or she satisfies the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) requirements for director independence (as set forth in Appendix A to this proxy statement) and the Board of Directors affirmatively determines that the director has no material relationship with DXC (either directly, or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with DXC).

The Board has determined that, except for Michael J. Salvino, the Company’s President and CEO, all of the Company’s director nominees, namely Mukesh Aghi, Amy E. Alving, David A. Barnes, Raul J. Fernandez, David L. Herzog, Dawn Rogers, Carrie W. Teffner, Akihiko Washington and Robert F. Woods, are independent for purposes of DXC’s Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Board also determined that, except for Michael J. Salvino, the Company’s President and CEO, all of the Company’s directors during fiscal 2022 were independent.

Independent Director Meetings. The non-management directors regularly meet in executive session after the conclusion of each regularly scheduled Board meeting, and meet at such additional times as they may determine.

Committee Independence Requirements. All members serving on the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee must either be independent as defined by the Guidelines or otherwise be eligible to be a committee member under Section 303A of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. In addition, Audit Committee members must meet heightened independence criteria under the rules and regulations of the NYSE and the SEC relating to audit committees, and each Compensation Committee member must meet heightened independence criteria under the rules and regulations of the NYSE and the SEC relating to compensation committees and be a “non-employee director” pursuant to the Exchange Act. The company’s Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee are comprised entirely of independent members.

Limits on Director Service on other Public Company Boards

We have a highly effective and engaged Board, and we believe that our directors’ outside directorships enable them to contribute valuable knowledge and experience to our Board. Nonetheless, the Board is sensitive to the external obligations of its directors and the potential for overboarding. Our Guidelines provide that directors should not serve as a director of another company if doing so would create actual or potential conflicts or interfere with their ability to devote sufficient time and effort to their duties as a director of DXC. Directors who have a full-time job should not serve on the boards of more than three other public companies and directors who do not have a full- time job should not serve on the board of more than four other public companies.

On May 17, 2022, the Company announced that David Herzog will become Lead Independent Director (LID) effective after our 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. In connection with his appointment as LID, Mr. Herzog will reduce his number of other public company boards from three to two before he begins serving as LID for the Company.

Director Attendance

Pursuant to our Guidelines, directors are expected to attend all meetings of the Board and the Board committees upon which they serve, and all annual meetings of the Company’s stockholders at which they are standing for election or re-election as directors.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, DXC held five meetings of the full DXC Board of Directors, DXC’s Audit Committee held eight meetings, DXC’s Compensation Committee held six meetings, DXC’s Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee held five meetings and DXC’s Risk Committee, which was eliminated on August 17, 2021, held one meeting. No DXC director on the DXC Board as of March 31, 2022 attended fewer than 91% of the aggregate of (1) the total number of Board meetings that occurred while he or she was a member of the Board, and (2) the meetings held by each Board committee on which he or she served. Each of the DXC directors then serving attended the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Stockholder Engagement

Governance is a continuing focus at DXC, starting with the Board and extending to all employees.

Management and the Board believe that stockholder engagement is an important component of our governance practices. DXC has an ongoing stockholder outreach program to build relationships with our stockholders and develop a dialogue about DXC’s corporate governance program. We value the input we receive from stockholders, engage on a variety of matters, including corporate governance, executive compensation, ESG issues and human capital management, and strive to be responsive to that feedback.

For details regarding our stockholder engagement efforts relating to our executive compensation program as a result of the 2021 advisory vote to approve executive compensation, please refer to “2021 Say-on-Pay Vote and Stockholder Engagement” in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis.

Risk Oversight

We believe our Board leadership structure supports a risk-management process in which senior management is responsible for our day-to-day risk-management processes and the Board provides oversight of our risk management. As part of its oversight responsibility, the Board oversees and maintains our governance and compliance processes and procedures to promote high standards of responsibility, ethics and integrity.

Management Role. In fiscal 2022, our Chief Operating Officer (COO) focused on leading the Company’s risk and security efforts and risk management efforts, including cybersecurity preparedness, resiliency and security, brand protection initiatives, asset protection and environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks. Our COO also worked to advance DXC’s enterprise-level resilience strategy to enable leaders to respond to security and business disruptions in an efficient and consistent manner, keeping the safety and security of employees at the forefront while protecting company assets.

In order for us to identify and mitigate our risk exposures, we have also established an Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) function to (1) identify risks in the strategic, operational, financial reporting and compliance domains, for DXC as a whole, as well as for each operating unit, and (2) evaluate the effectiveness of existing mitigation strategies. The ERM function coordinates and reviews assessments of internal processes and controls for ongoing compliance with internal policies and legal regulatory requirements. The ERM function periodically reports potential areas of risk to the Board and its committees.

In fiscal 2022, our enterprise risk, issue and opportunity management framework was centralized under a single executive owner to facilitate consistent processes, definitions and tools to proactively address operational, financial, compliance and strategic risks, issues and opportunities.

We will continue to evaluate our risk management program and structure in fiscal 2023 to ensure alignment with the Company’s strategic and operational risks.

Board Role. The Board has overall responsibility for oversight of risk and assessment of our strategic and operational risks throughout the year on an ongoing basis. Members of senior management regularly report on the opportunities and risks faced by us in the markets in which we conduct business.

Committee Role. In fulfilling its oversight role, the Board delegates certain risk management oversight responsibility to the Board’s committees. The committees meet regularly and report any significant issues and recommendations discussed during the committee meetings to the Board. Specifically, each committee fulfills the following oversight roles:

The risks referenced above do not represent an exhaustive list of all enterprise risks that we face or that are considered and addressed from time to time by the Board and its committees. For more information on risks that affect our business, please see our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and other filings we make with the SEC.

Information Security Risk

Our Board devotes significant time and attention to oversight of information security risk. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee oversees the Company’s information security risk program, as well as management’s actions to identify, assess, mitigate, and remediate material information security risk incidents. In fiscal 2022, the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee received regular quarterly reports from the Chief Operating Officer (COO) or the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) on the Company’s information security program at each regular Committee meeting and provided an overview of these information security reports to the full Board at each regular quarterly Board meeting.

In support of the Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) function, DXC has established a Global Cyber Security Risk Management Program to identify, analyze and manage our global cyber security risk. As part of this program, the CISO and COO oversee and report identified cyber security risks to the ERM function, and material risks to the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee of the Board. The CISO and COO also work together to analyze emerging global cyber security risks and use their expertise to review the capability of DXC’s current security posture to mitigate such risks and implement required improvements where necessary.

Our CISO and COO have extensive experience assessing and managing cybersecurity-related risks and implementing related policies, procedures, and strategies. Our CISO has served in leadership roles related to information security for over 27 years, including serving as a Deputy CISO since 2005, as a CISO since 2017 and as DXC’s CISO since May 2019. Similarly, our COO is a well-known leader with more than 20 years of experience in the technology industry and has been with DXC since 2020.

The Company maintains an information security risk insurance policy.

Oversight of COVID-19 Risks

The risk landscape associated with the COVID-19 pandemic has been, and continues to be, discussed with the Board as well as the Board committees, as appropriate. Over the course of fiscal 2022, management regularly updated the Board on the pandemic’s impacts to our business and the strategic, operational and financial risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Management continues to report to the Board on its response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Oversight of Risks Related to Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine

Our Board has overall responsibility for oversight of risk at DXC and has been engaged in, and provided oversight for, DXC’s response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, including our exit of the Russian market, our continuing compliance with applicable sanctions and trade control measures, the relocation and support of our people in the affected countries, and the other related risks described in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022.

Compensation and Risk

Management reviewed DXC’s executive and non-executive compensation programs for fiscal 2021 and determined that its policies and compensation programs were not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on DXC. DXC also considered its robust executive stock ownership guidelines, clawback policy and anti-hedging policy as risk-mitigating features of its executive compensation program. See more below under Risk Assessment in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis.

Prohibition on Hedging or Pledging of Company Stock

Our policy against insider trading prohibits employees, officers and directors from engaging in any speculative or hedging transactions in our securities. We prohibit hedging transactions such as puts, calls, collars, swaps, forward sale contracts, exchange funds, and similar arrangements or instruments designed to hedge or offset decreases in the market value of DXC’s securities. No employee, officer or director may engage in short sales of DXC securities, hold DXC securities in a margin account, or pledge DXC securities as collateral for a loan.

Equity Ownership Guidelines

Under stock ownership guidelines adopted by the Board, Board members, other than the CEO, have an equity ownership requirement of five times their annual retainer to be achieved over a five-year period. Restricted stock units, as well as directly held shares, are taken into account for purposes of determining whether requirements have been met. Stock ownership guidelines for the executive officers, including the CEO, are described under Stock Ownership Guidelines in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis.

Talent Management and Succession Planning

Our Compensation Committee and Board are responsible for reviewing succession plans. The Compensation Committee oversees succession planning and leadership development for DXC’s senior management. The Compensation Committee has responsibility to review and make recommendations with respect to (1) the Board’s succession plan for the CEO, and (2) the company’s succession plans for other members of senior management.

Director Education

The Board recognizes the importance of its members keeping current on DXC and industry issues and their responsibilities as directors. All new directors attend orientation training soon after being elected to the Board, and annual Information Security training. Also, the Board encourages attendance at continuing education programs for Board members, which may include internal strategy or topical meetings, third-party presentations and externally-offered programs.

Code of Conduct

DXC is committed to high standards of ethical conduct and professionalism, and our Code of Conduct confirms our commitment to ethical behavior in the conduct of all DXC activities and reflects our values. The Code of Conduct applies to all directors, all officers (including our chief executive officer (CEO), chief financial officer (CFO) and principal accounting officer (PAO)) and employees of DXC, and it sets forth our policies and expectations on a number of topics including avoiding conflicts of interest, confidentiality, insider trading, protection of DXC and customer property and providing a proper and professional work environment. We maintain a worldwide toll-free and Internet-based helpline – the DXC OpenLine – which employees can use to communicate any ethics-related concerns, and we provide training on ethics and compliance topics for all employees. The DXC OpenLine is administered by a third-party provider. The ethics and compliance function resides in the Ethics and Compliance Office and is managed by DXC’s Chief Ethics and Compliance Officer.

For the year ended March 31, 2022, there were no waivers of any provisions of DXC’s Code of Conduct for our CEO, CFO or PAO. In the event DXC amends the Code of Conduct or waives any provision of the Code of Conduct applicable to our CEO, CFO and PAO that relates to any element of the definition of “code of ethics” enumerated in Item 406(b) of Regulation S-K, we intend to disclose these actions on our website.

Retirement of Directors

Under our Bylaws, directors must retire by the close of the first annual meeting of stockholders held after they reach age 72, unless the Board determines that it is in the best interests of DXC and its stockholders for the director to continue to serve until the close of a subsequent annual meeting.

Board Evaluations

We are committed to providing transparency about our Board and committee evaluation process. Our Board utilizes a multi-part process for its ongoing self-evaluation to ensure that the Board is operating effectively and that its processes reflect best practices.

In addition, the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee periodically assesses the collective skills and experiences of our Board, comparing them to the Company’s long-term strategy.

Resignation of Employee Directors

Under the Guidelines, the CEO must offer to resign from the Board when he or she ceases to be a DXC employee.

Communicating with the Board

Stockholders and other interested parties may communicate with the Board, individual directors, the non-management directors as a group, or with the independent Chairman of the Board, by writing in care of the Corporate Secretary, DXC Technology Company, 20408 Bashan Drive, Suite 231, Ashburn, VA 20147. The Corporate Secretary reviews all submissions and forwards to members of the Board all appropriate communications that in his judgment are not offensive or otherwise objectionable and do not constitute commercial solicitations.

Committees of the Board

As of the date of this proxy statement, the Board has 13 directors and three standing committees: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee.

Each director serving on the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee must be and is independent.

In addition:

Committee Memberships

The number of committee meetings during the last fiscal year and the function of each of the standing committees are described below.

Audit Committee

Remediation of Material Weakness Completed as of March 31, 2022. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Company completed the remediation of a previously disclosed material weakness related to the establishment and timely reassessment of policies and procedures for complex transactions and processes and the related impacts to control activities. The material weakness did not result in a restatement of prior financial statements, and the Company received an unqualified opinion on its financial statements. The Audit Committee was fully engaged and supportive of management’s efforts to remediate the material weakness and reviewed and discussed remediation at each standing Committee meeting it held in fiscal 2022, and held separate sessions of the Committee specifically to review progress on the remediation. The Committee also participated in the recruiting of a new finance leadership team with deep expertise in control environment remediation.

Anyone with questions or complaints regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters may communicate them to the DXC Ethics and Compliance Office and our Audit Committee by contacting DXC’s OpenLine on the Company’s website, www.dxc.com, under “About Us/Leadership and Governance/Ethics and Compliance/Integrity Matters at DXC/SpeakUp!/OpenLine.” Calls may be confidential or anonymous. Questions and complaints marked for the Audit Committee are forwarded to the committee’s chairman for its review, and reviewed and addressed, as appropriate, by DXC’s General Counsel, the Vice President of Ethics and Compliance, the Head of Internal Audit, and the Principal Accounting Officer. The Audit Committee may direct special treatment, including the retention of outside advisors, for any concern communicated to it. The Code of Conduct makes clear DXC’s zero tolerance position on matters of retaliation by management or anyone against DXC employees for any report or communication made in good faith through the DXC OpenLine.

Compensation Committee

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation. Current Compensation Committee members Mukesh Aghi, Dawn Rogers and Akihiko Washington, as well as former Compensation Committee members Raul Fernandez and Mary L. Krakauer, were not at any time during fiscal 2022, or at any other time, one of DXC’s officers or employees. No executive officer of DXC served on the compensation committee or board of any company that employed any member of the DXC Compensation Committee or Board.

Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee

Audit Committee Report

The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with management and Deloitte & Touche LLP, DXC’s independent auditors, DXC’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, management’s assessment of the effectiveness of DXC’s internal control over financial reporting and Deloitte & Touche LLP’s evaluation of DXC’s internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee also discussed with the independent auditors the materials required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) and the Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, the Audit Committee received from Deloitte & Touche LLP the written disclosures and the letter required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and discussed with them their independence.

Based on such review and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors, and the Board of Directors approved, the inclusion of the audited financial statements of DXC in DXC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, for filing with the SEC.

The Audit Committee also appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP as DXC’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, and recommended to the Board of Directors that such appointment be submitted to our stockholders for ratification.

Director Compensation

Director compensation is reviewed annually and approved by the Board of Directors at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee. The annual review includes an analysis by the Compensation Committee’s independent consultant of the program’s framework and pay levels relative to DXC’s peer group.

The director compensation program reflects several best practices to ensure sound governance and alignment with our stockholders:

In the tables and narrative below, we describe our non-employee director compensation program and the compensation paid to our non-employee directors for fiscal 2022. Mr. Salvino, our President and CEO, does not receive any separate compensation for his activities on our Board.

The following table sets forth for each individual who served as a non-employee director of DXC during fiscal 2022 certain information with respect to compensation paid to them by DXC in fiscal 2022.

Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance

With a focus on our customers, colleagues, and communities, DXC is committed to building sustainable and responsible business practices that create value for all our stakeholders and contribute to a better world.

ESG Strategy and Targets

As a responsible corporate citizen with a commitment to environmental sustainability, we set ambitious carbon-reduction goals, and are working toward circular-economy processes and climate impact mitigation. Our sustainability approach is targeted to (1) Advancing the sustainability of our operations; (2) Advancing the sustainability of our IT services; and (3) Using our technologies and capabilities to help our customers become more sustainable.

We strive to minimize our impact on the environment and improve resource efficiency in the areas of energy consumption, data center management and travel and transportation. Our conservation efforts are supported in part by our shift to a virtual-first operating model, which enables our workforce to be largely remote and helps us reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and our overall energy consumption. While the virtual-first model mainly helps reduce the size of our office footprint, we are also pursuing efficiency programs for data centers and data center rationalization programs to reduce energy consumption.

DXC also partners with customers to help them achieve their own climate-related goals. In response to shifting customer demand, we offer a number of products and services that can have a significant impact on our customers’ sustainability objectives, delivering climate-related benefits far greater than what we could achieve alone through our internal carbon-reduction efforts. Offerings such as DXC Modern Workplace, cloud migration services and data-driven sustainability services directly reduce carbon emissions for our customers.¹

Environmental

DXC has committed to set near-term company-wide emission reductions in line with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Additional targets include reducing Scope 1 and 2 emissions 55% by 2025 against a 2019 baseline.

Achievements include:

Social

We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive, values-based and people-first culture. Diversity is at the core of our ability to serve our customers and stockholders, and it strengthens our reputation as an employer of choice in the technology services industry and beyond.

Achievements include:

Governance

DXC’s governance program is being structured to instill trust and garner respect among the stakeholders we serve through responsible and transparent leadership. Our Board devotes significant time and attention to ESG issues, inclusive of Information Security Risk and Ethics & Compliance to maintain the highest standards of corporate governance.

Achievements include:

ESG Oversight

In fiscal 2021, we enhanced the governance of our ESG program to include a multitiered process involving the Board of Directors, members of our executive staff and internal leadership.

Reporting frameworks

		Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) reporting since 2017				Reporting through Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) beginning in 2021
		CDP respondent since 2018; improved two levels from “C” to “B” rating in 2021				Reporting against the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) standards beginning in 2021

Accolades

We maintain a page on our corporate website at www.dxc.com/us/en/about-us/corporate-responsibility where information regarding our Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) program, including our corporate responsibility reports and our accomplishments on ESG related matters, among others, may be found. We seek to be responsive to key areas of stakeholder interest through our ESG disclosures; however, the ESG disclosures on our website, including our Corporate Responsibility Reports, are not incorporated by reference into this proxy statement or our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, because such disclosures include matters that are not material under the federal securities law definition of materiality or otherwise responsive to our reporting obligations.

Political Contributions and Lobbying

In keeping with DXC’s Code of Conduct, DXC pursues its public policy agenda in strict accordance with the law and its global Government Affairs policy which, among other things, establishes clear governance for Lobbying, Political Contributions and Contact with Government Officials.

The Company’s Government Affairs policy is available on our website at www.dxc.com/us/en/about-us/leadership-and-governance/dxc-government-affairs
