DEAR STOCKHOLDER:

It is my pleasure to invite you to attend the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of PLBY Group, Inc. (the “Annual Meeting”). The Annual Meeting will be held virtually on June 16, 2025, at 1:00 p.m., Eastern Time. You may attend the virtual Annual Meeting and vote your shares electronically during the meeting via live audio webcast by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PLBY2025. If you will not attend the Annual Meeting virtually, you may also vote online, by telephone or by mail prior to the Annual Meeting.

The enclosed Notice of 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and Proxy Statement describes the proposals to be considered and voted upon at the Annual Meeting.

Whether or not you plan to attend the virtual Annual Meeting, it is important that you be represented. To ensure that your vote will be received and counted, please vote online, by telephone or by mail by following the instructions included with the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (“Notice of Internet Availability”) that will be provided to you, or promptly sign, date and return the proxy card in the postage-paid envelope (which will be provided to those stockholders who request to receive paper copies of these materials by mail).

On behalf of the Board of Directors and senior management, I would like to express our appreciation for your support and interest in PLBY Group, Inc. I look forward to your engagement with the Annual Meeting.

Sincerely,

Ben Kohn

Chief Executive Officer & President

Important Notice of Internet Availability for the Annual Meeting to be held on June 16, 2025.

This year we will take advantage of the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that allow us to furnish our proxy materials over the Internet. As a result, we are sending a Notice of Internet Availability to our stockholders rather than a full paper set of the proxy materials. The Notice of Internet Availability contains instructions on how to access our proxy materials on the Internet, as well as instructions on how stockholders may obtain a paper copy of our proxy materials. This process helps the environment and substantially reduces the costs associated with printing and distributing our proxy materials. To make it easier for you to vote, Internet and telephone voting are available. The instructions on the Notice of Internet Availability or, if you received a paper copy of the proxy materials, the proxy card, describe how to use these convenient services.

NOTICE OF 2025 ANNUAL MEETING OF PLBY GROUP, INC. STOCKHOLDERS

TO THE STOCKHOLDERS OF PLBY GROUP, INC.:

The 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of PLBY Group, Inc. (the “Company”) will be held on June 16, 2025, at 1:00 p.m., Eastern Time. The Company has adopted a virtual format for the Annual Meeting to provide a safe, consistent and convenient experience to all stockholders regardless of location. You may attend the virtual meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PLBY2025.

The Annual Meeting is being held for the following purposes:

1.To elect two Class II directors (Juliana F. Hill and György Gattyán) to the Company’s Board of Directors;

2.To approve, for purposes of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b), the issuance by the Company of 16,956,842 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a sale price of $1.50 per share to The Million S.a.r.l. (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated December 14, 2024, by and between the Company and the Purchaser (the “Nasdaq Proposal”);

3.To approve an amendment to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 150,000,000 to 400,000,000 (the “Share Increase Proposal”);

4.To approve an amendment to the Charter to change the Company’s name to “Playboy, Inc.” (the “Name Change Proposal”);

5.To ratify the appointment of BDO USA, P.C. as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025;

6.To hold an advisory, non-binding vote to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers; and

7.To consider and vote upon the proposal to adjourn or postpone the Annual Meeting, from time to time, to a later date or dates, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes to approve the Nasdaq Proposal, the Share Increase Proposal and/or the Name Change Proposal.

You may vote on these matters directly or by proxy. Whether or not you plan to virtually attend the Annual Meeting, the Company asks that you vote by one of the following methods to ensure that your shares will be represented at the meeting in accordance with your wishes:

•Vote online by going to www.proxyvote.com and following the instructions on the website;

•Vote by phone by calling the toll-free telephone number 1-800-690-6903 and following the recorded instructions; or

•Vote by mail, by completing and returning a proxy card in the addressed stamped envelope (which will be provided to those stockholders who request to receive paper copies of proxy materials by mail).

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on April 21, 2025 are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement of the meeting.

As permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Company is providing access to its proxy materials online under the SEC’s “notice and access” rules. As a result, unless you previously requested electronic or paper delivery on an ongoing basis, the Company is mailing to its stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice of Internet Availability”) instead of a paper copy of the proxy statement and a form of proxy card or voting instruction card. The Notice of Internet Availability contains instructions on how to access such proxy materials online. The Notice of Internet Availability also instructs you on how you may authorize a proxy to vote your shares over the Internet, how you can receive a paper copy of the proxy materials through the mail and how you can enroll in e-delivery. This distribution process is more resource and cost-efficient. The Notice of Internet Availability is first being mailed, and the proxy materials are expected to be made available, to the Company’s stockholders on or about April 30, 2025.

Important Notice of Internet Availability for the Annual Meeting to be held on June 16, 2025. The Notice of Internet Availability and the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting are available through the Internet at www.proxyvote.com. If you received proxy materials for the Annual Meeting via email, the email contains voting instructions and links to the proxy statement for the Annual Meeting on the Internet.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT. Whether or not you plan to virtually attend the Annual Meeting, PLBY Group, Inc. urges you to submit your vote via the Internet, telephone or mail.

By Order of the Board of Directors of PLBY Group, Inc.:

Chris Riley

General Counsel and Secretary

PROXY STATEMENT

PLBY GROUP, INC.

GENERAL INFORMATION

This Proxy Statement and the enclosed form of proxy card are being furnished to you in connection with the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of PLBY Group, Inc. (“PLBY,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”). The Annual Meeting will be held on June 16, 2025, at 1:00 p.m., Eastern Time. The Annual Meeting will be held virtually via live audio webcast. You may attend the virtual Annual Meeting and vote your shares electronically during the meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PLBY2025. This Proxy Statement and the accompanying notice and form of proxy (the “proxy materials”) are first being made available on or about April 30, 2025 to stockholders of record with respect to our Common Stock at the close of business on April 21, 2025 (the “Record Date”).

At the Annual Meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote in the election of two directors; to approve, for purposes of Rule 5653(b) (“Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b)”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), the issuance by the Company of 16,956,842 shares of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a sale price of $1.50 per share to The Million S.a.r.l. (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated December 14, 2024 (the “Additional Purchase Agreement”), by and between the Company and the Purchaser (the “Nasdaq Proposal”); to approve an amendment to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 150,000,000 to 400,000,000 (the “Share Increase Proposal”); to approve an amendment to the Charter to change the Company’s name to “Playboy, Inc.” (the “Name Change Proposal”); to ratify BDO USA, P.C. (“BDO”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025; and to approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers (“Say-on-Pay”). At the Annual Meeting, you will also be asked to consider and vote on a proposal to adjourn the Annual Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes to approve the Nasdaq Proposal, Share Increase Proposal and/or the Name Change Proposal at the time of the Annual Meeting (the “Adjournment Proposal”). If any other matter is properly presented at the Annual Meeting, the persons named in the accompanying proxy card will have discretionary authority to vote on that matter.

We are furnishing proxy materials to our stockholders over the Internet, and providing a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice of Internet Availability”) by mail. We believe that this process expedites stockholders’ receipt of proxy materials while lowering the costs and reducing the environmental impact of our Annual Meeting. The Notice of Internet Availability is first being mailed to stockholders of the Company on or about April 30, 2025. Our Board of Directors (the “Board”) has fixed the close of business on April 21, 2025 as the Record Date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. Except as set forth herein, only holders of Common Stock of record at the close of business on April 21, 2025 will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting.

Table of Contents

You will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials unless you request to receive these materials in hard copy by following the instructions provided in the Notice of Internet Availability. Instead, the Notice of Internet Availability will instruct you on how you may access and review all of the important information contained in the proxy materials. The Notice of Internet Availability also instructs you on how you may submit your proxy via the Internet, telephone or mail. If you received a Notice of Internet Availability by mail and would like to receive a printed copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting such materials included in the Notice of Internet Availability.

Your proxy is being solicited by our Board. Your proxy may be revoked by written notice to our Secretary at our headquarters at any time before being voted. You may also revoke your proxy by submitting a proxy with a later date, entering a new vote by Internet or by telephone or by voting during your virtual attendance at the Annual Meeting. To vote online, please go to www.proxyvote.com and follow the instructions on the website. To vote by telephone, please call the toll-free telephone number 1-800-690-6903 and follow the recorded instructions. To vote by mail, please sign, date and return the proxy card in the postage-paid envelope (which will be provided to those stockholders who request to receive paper copies of these materials by mail). Votes submitted online or by mail must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on June 15, 2025. Submitting your vote online, by telephone or by mail will not affect your right to vote virtually during the Annual Meeting, if you choose to do so. Proxies that are properly delivered to us and not revoked before the closing of the polls during the Annual Meeting will be voted for the proposals described in this Proxy Statement in accordance with the instructions set forth in the Notice of Internet Availability. Your virtual presence at the Annual Meeting does not of itself revoke your proxy.

Attendance at the Annual Meeting

The Annual Meeting will be held entirely online. Stockholders of record as of the Record Date will be able to attend and participate in the Annual Meeting online by accessing www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PLBY2025. To join the Annual Meeting you will need to have your 16 digit control number, which is included in your Notice of Internet Availability and proxy card. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting online, we recommend that you also vote by proxy as described herein so that your vote will be counted if you decide not to attend the Annual Meeting or in the event of any technical difficulties during the Annual Meeting.

Access to the Audio Webcast of the Annual Meeting

The live audio webcast of the Annual Meeting will begin promptly at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time, on June 16, 2025. Online access to the audio webcast will open approximately 15 minutes prior to the start of the Annual Meeting to allow time for you to log in and test the computer audio system. We encourage our stockholders to access the meeting prior to the start time.

To attend the online Annual Meeting, log in at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PLBY2025. Stockholders will need their 16-digit control number, which appears on the notice and the instructions that accompanied the proxy materials. If you do not have a control number, please contact your broker, bank, or other nominee as soon as possible, so that you can be provided with a control number and gain access to the meeting.

Availability of Live Audio Webcast to Team Members and Other Constituents

The live audio webcast will be available to not only our stockholders but also our team members and other constituents.

Securities Entitled to Vote

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to notice of the Annual Meeting. Such stockholders may vote shares held by them at the close of business on the Record Date at the Annual Meeting, except that, consistent with Nasdaq rules, the Purchaser will be unable to cast a vote for any of its shares of Common Stock with respect to the Nasdaq Proposal (Proposal No. 2). As of the close of business on the Record Date, there were 93,940,964 shares of our Common Stock outstanding held by 79 holders of record. Except for the Purchaser solely with respect to the Nasdaq Proposal, each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share on each proposal to be considered by our stockholders.

Beneficial owners of shares are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting virtually and may vote their shares electronically during the Annual Meeting by following the instructions posted at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PLBY2025.

Stockholder of Record. If your Common Stock shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, you are considered the “stockholder of record” with respect to those shares. As a stockholder of record, you may vote electronically during the Annual Meeting or vote by proxy in advance of the Annual Meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting virtually, we urge you to vote on the Internet as instructed in the Notice of Internet Availability that is mailed to you, by calling the toll-free telephone number 1-800-690-6903 and following the recorded instructions, or by proxy by mail, if you request a printed proxy card, to ensure your vote is counted.

Beneficial Owner. If your Common Stock shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in street name. The organization holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank, or other agent on how to vote the shares in your account. Your brokerage firm, bank, or other agent will not be able to vote in the election of directors, on the Nasdaq Proposal, on the Say-on-Pay proposal or on the Adjournment Proposal unless they have your voting instructions, as these are considered non-routine matters and broker discretionary voting on these matters is prohibited, so it is very important that you indicate your voting instructions to the institution holding your shares. Beneficial owners of shares are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting virtually and may vote their shares electronically during the Annual Meeting.

Matters Scheduled for a Vote

There are seven matters scheduled for a vote:

•Proposal 1: To elect a total of two director nominees;

•Proposal 2: To approve the Nasdaq Proposal;

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank, or Other Agent

You will need the 16-digit control number included on the notice and voting instructions received from your broker, bank or other agent.

We provide Internet proxy voting to allow you to vote your shares online, with procedures designed to ensure the authenticity and correctness of your proxy vote instructions. However, please be aware that you must bear any costs associated with your Internet access, such as usage charges from Internet access providers and telephone companies.

Vote Required

In accordance with our Amended and Restated Bylaws (our “Bylaws”), the presence at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions from voting on a proposal by a stockholder at the Annual Meeting, as well as broker non-votes, will be considered for purposes of determining the number of total votes present at the Annual Meeting for quorum purposes.

The affirmative vote of a plurality of the total votes cast for directors at the Annual Meeting is necessary to elect a director. No cumulative voting is permitted. The two nominees receiving the highest number of votes cast “FOR” will be elected. You may vote for both the director nominees, withhold authority to vote your shares for both director nominees or withhold authority to vote your shares with respect to any one of the director nominees. Withholding authority to vote your shares with respect to one or more director nominees will have no effect on the election of those nominees. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the election of the nominees.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the votes cast by stockholders present or represented at the Annual Meeting is required to approve the Nasdaq Proposal. The total number of votes cast “FOR” will be counted for purposes of determining whether sufficient affirmative votes have been cast to approve the Nasdaq Proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the approval of the Nasdaq Proposal.

The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds (66⅔%) of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote is required to approve the Share Increase Proposal. The total number of votes cast “FOR” will be counted for purposes of determining whether sufficient affirmative votes have been cast to approve the Share Increase Proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as votes “against” the Share Increase Proposal, because of the approval required by two-thirds of outstanding shares.

Table of Contents

The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds (66⅔%) of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote is required to approve the Name Change Proposal. The total number of votes cast “FOR” will be counted for purposes of determining whether sufficient affirmative votes have been cast to approve the Name Change Proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as votes “against” the Name Change Proposal, because of the approval required by two-thirds of outstanding shares.

Both the Share Increase Proposal and the Name Change Proposal require approval by at least 66⅔% of the voting power of the stockholders of record as of the Record Date entitled to vote, because both such proposals require amendments to our Charter in order to become effective, and the terms of our Charter require such supermajority approval for any amendment of the Charter, including with respect to amending the name of the Company and the number of its authorized shares. Refer to the section entitled “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions” in this Proxy Statement for additional details on the voting standard required for Charter amendments.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the votes cast by stockholders present or represented at the Annual Meeting is required to approve the ratification of the appointment of BDO as our independent registered public accounting firm. The total number of votes cast “FOR” will be counted for purposes of determining whether sufficient affirmative votes have been cast to approve the ratification of the appointment of BDO as our independent registered public accounting firm. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the ratification of the appointment of BDO as our independent registered public accounting firm.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the votes cast by stockholders present or represented at the Annual Meeting is required to approve, on an advisory, non-binding basis, the compensation of our named executive officers. The total number of votes cast “FOR” will be counted for purposes of determining whether sufficient affirmative votes have been cast to approve, on an advisory, non-binding basis, the compensation of our named executive officers. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the advisory approval of such Say-on-Pay proposal.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the votes cast by stockholders present or represented at the Annual Meeting is required to approve the Adjournment Proposal. The total number of votes cast “FOR” will be counted for purposes of determining whether sufficient affirmative votes have been cast to approve the Adjournment Proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the approval of the Adjournment Proposal.

How to Obtain Proxy Materials

You will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials unless you request to receive these materials in hard copy by following the instructions in the Notice of Internet Availability. Instead, the Notice of Internet Availability will instruct you on how you may access and review all of the important information contained in the proxy materials. The Notice of Internet Availability also instructs you how you may submit your proxy via the Internet.

How Your Proxy Will be Voted

When proxies are properly signed, dated and returned, the shares represented by the proxies will be voted in accordance with the instructions of the stockholder. If no specific instructions are given, you give authority to Marc Crossman and Chris Riley to vote the shares in accordance with the recommendations of our Board as described above. If any director nominee is not able to serve, proxies will be voted in favor of the other nominee and may be voted for a substitute nominee, unless our Board chooses to reduce the number of directors serving on our Board. If any matters not described in this Proxy Statement are properly presented at the Annual Meeting, then the proxy holders will use their own judgment to determine how to vote the shares. If the Annual Meeting is adjourned, the proxy holders can vote your shares on the new meeting date as well, unless you have revoked your proxy.

How to Change Your Vote After Submitting Your Proxy

You can revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the Annual Meeting. If you are a stockholder of record, you may revoke your proxy in any one of three ways:

1.A duly executed proxy card with a later date or time than the previously submitted proxy;

Table of Contents

2.A written notice that you are revoking your proxy to our Secretary, Chris Riley, care of PLBY Group, Inc., 10960 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 2200, Los Angeles, CA 90024; or

3.A later-dated vote on the Internet or by telephone, or by a ballot cast online during the Annual Meeting (simply virtually attending the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy).

If you are a beneficial owner, you may revoke your proxy by submitting new instructions to your broker, bank, or other agent, or if you have received a proxy from your broker, bank, or other agent giving you the right to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting, by attending the meeting virtually and voting during the meeting.

PROPOSAL NO. 1 — ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Company’s business affairs are managed under the direction of our Board. The Board consists of six members, as set forth below (with director nominees for election at this year’s Annual Meeting in bold).

Name

Age

Position

Ben Kohn

Chief Executive Officer, President, and Director

Suhail Rizvi

Director (Chairman of the Board)

György Gattyán

Director

Juliana F. Hill

Director

Tracey Edmonds

Director

James Yaffe

Director

The Board is divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III, with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class serving a three-year term. Our stockholders will elect two directors in one class at this year’s Annual Meeting, as follows:

•Class II, which consists of Mr. György Gattyán and Ms. Juliana F. Hill, each of whom is subject to re-election for a new term that will expire at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2028.

Mr. Gattyán and Ms. Hill are referred to in this proxy statement as the “nominees”. Upon their election to the Board, the nominees will serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following their election and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. The Board’s Class I directors, consisting of Messrs. Kohn and Rizvi, and Class III directors, consisting of Ms. Edmonds and Mr. Yaffe, are not up for reelection. The Class I directors’ terms will expire at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2027. The Class III directors’ terms will expire at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2026.

The affirmative vote of a plurality of the total votes cast for directors is necessary to elect each nominee as a director. This means that the two nominees who receive the most votes will be elected to the two open directorships, even if they get less than a majority of the votes cast. Each nominee has consented to his or her nomination and has advised us that he or she intends to serve if elected. If at the time of the Annual Meeting one or more of the nominees have become unable to serve: (i) shares represented by proxies will be voted for the remaining nominees and for any substitute nominee or nominees; or (ii) the Board may, in accordance with our Bylaws, reduce the size of the Board or may leave a vacancy until a nominee is identified. Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy holders will vote the proxies received by them “FOR” the election of György Gattyán and Juliana F. Hill as Class II directors.

The following is a brief biography of each nominee for director and a discussion of the specific experience, qualifications, attributes, or skills for each nominee that led the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board (the “CGN Committee”) to recommend that person as a nominee for director as of the date of this proxy statement.

György Gattyán was appointed to the Board in February 2025. Mr. Gattyán currently serves as the Class A Manager and Chief Executive Officer of Docler Holding S.a.r.l. (“Docler Holding”), a multinational information technology, media and entertainment company he founded in 2013 and is headquartered in Luxembourg. Docler Holding is the parent company of Byborg Enterprises SA (“Byborg”), which is the Company’s largest licensee and primarily focused on the development and operation of live streaming websites, including the webcam platform LiveJasmin, which Mr. Gattyán founded in 2001. Since 2016, he has also served as the joint owner, co-founder and Vice President of Federation Internationale de Teqball (FITEQ), the governing body presiding over teqball, a sport Mr. Gattyán co-created in 2014. In addition, since 2021, Mr. Gattyán has served as the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of each of the Gattyán Foundation and Docler Foundation, which provide support to disadvantaged children living in state care and engage in a range of other philanthropic endeavors, respectively. Since 2011, he has been the Co-Founder and Patron of the Junior Prima Primissima Foundation, which gives out the Junior Prima Award for Hungarian folk art and public education, and the founder of the “Docler Holding New Generation” Gábor Dénes Award, sponsoring young talents with singular achievements and quality works in the field of science. Mr. Gattyán holds degrees from Kodolányi János University and Semmelweis University.


			11

We believe Mr. Gattyán’s experience as an entrepreneur, digital technology executive and as a director and chairperson of multiple organizations qualifies him to serve on the Board and to provide management and operational advice to the Board.

Juliana F. Hill has served as a director of the Company since March 2022. Ms. Hill is the founder and Manager of JFH Consulting LLC, which provides financial and strategic advisory services and was founded in 2013. Since 2020, Ms. Hill has also served as a director of National Cinemedia, Inc. (Nasdaq: NCMI), the largest cinema advertising network in the United States, and serves as the Chair of its Audit Committee. Previously, Ms. Hill held senior executive positions within finance at iHeartMedia, Inc., a digital media company formerly known as Clear Channel Communications, Inc., and was an audit manager at Ernst & Young LLP. Ms. Hill holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting from Trinity University, and a Master of Business Administration degree from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University. She is also a certified public accountant in the state of Texas.

We believe Ms. Hill’s experience as a financial executive and as a director and chairperson of a public company qualifies her to serve on our Board, to serve as chairperson of our Audit Committee and to provide guidance to our internal audit function and financial advice to our Board.

Upon the recommendation of our CGN Committee, our Board has nominated György Gattyán and Juliana F. Hill as Class II directors, to serve until the 2028 annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified.

Vote Required

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE ELECTION OF ALL OF THE NOMINEES NAMED HEREIN (PROPOSAL NO. 1).

We believe Mr. Rizvi’s more than 10 years as a director of Playboy and the Company, and over 27 years of private equity investing, operations and management experience, makes him well qualified to serve as the Chairman of our Board.

Tracey Edmonds has served as a director of the Company since February 2021.

Mr. Yaffe is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of TA:DA Holdings, LLC (“TA:DA”), an operational holding company that buys and invests in human performance companies and was founded in April 2019.

Board Diversity Matrix

The following Board Diversity Matrix presents certain Board diversity information, as self-disclosed by our current directors. While neither the Board nor the CGN Committee has a formal written policy regarding director diversity, both the CGN Committee and the Board consider the diversity of backgrounds and experience when selecting nominees for director election and in evaluating Board composition and performance. As we pursue future Board recruitment efforts, the CGN Committee will continue to seek out candidates who can contribute to the diversity of views and perspectives of the Board. This includes seeking out individuals of diverse backgrounds and with diverse perspectives informed by other personal and professional experiences. This approach to the promotion of diversity has resulted in a group of directors, including the director nominees for the Annual Meeting, that we believe to be individuals of substantial accomplishment with demonstrated leadership capabilities, as further detailed in each director’s biography included in this Proxy Statement.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board Leadership Structure

Currently, Ben Kohn is our Chief Executive Officer and Suhail Rizvi is the Chairman of our Board. While Mr. Kohn serves as a director, the roles of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chairman of the Board are separate. Mr. Rizvi and György Gattyán, along with our three independent directors, Tracey Edmonds, Juliana F. Hill and James Yaffe, are all non-employee directors. We believe this leadership structure is best for our company and our stockholders at this time. We believe that having our Chief Executive Officer serve as a director helps facilitate good communication between management and our non-employee directors, and that our non-employee directors are able to carry out their oversight responsibilities effectively.

The composition of our Board and the relationship between management and the non-employee directors puts each director in a position to influence agendas, flow of information, and other matters. Our independent directors hold regularly scheduled meetings without management and in which only the independent directors are present. Such meetings generally are held in conjunction with regularly scheduled Board meetings and at other times as may be requested by an independent director.

Our Board believes that management speaks for the Company. While individual non-employee directors may, from time-to-time, meet or otherwise communicate with various constituencies that are involved with us, it is expected that directors would do this with the knowledge of management and, absent unusual circumstances, only at the request of management.

Board Composition

On February 11, 2025, the Board expanded the size of the Board from five to seven directors (the “Board Expansion”) and appointed György Gattyán as a new Class II director. Mr. Gattyán’s initial term will expire at the Annual Meeting, or his earlier resignation or removal. As a result of the Board Expansion and the appointment of Mr. Gattyán, the Board is currently comprised of six directors and has one vacant seat to be filled by a new independent director. Refer to the section entitled “Director Independence” below for additional information regarding independent directors.

The Board is divided into three classes, Class I, Class II and Class III, with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class serving a three-year term. The Company’s Board is divided into the following classes:

•Class I, which consists of Mr. Ben Kohn and Mr. Suhail Rizvi, whose terms will expire at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2027;

•Class II, which consists of Ms. Juliana F. Hill and Mr. György Gattyán, who are subject to re-election at the Annual Meeting for new terms that will expire at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2028; and

•Class III, which consists of Ms. Tracey Edmonds and Mr. James Yaffe, whose terms will expire at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2026.

At each annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to directors whose terms then expire will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following their election and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. This classification of the Board may have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in the Company’s control or management. The Company’s directors may be removed for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon, voting as a single class; provided, however, that at any time when Rizvi Traverse Management, LLC (together with its affiliates, “RT”) beneficially owns collectively, in the aggregate, less than 50% in voting owner of the stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (as it did as of the Record Date), any such director or the entire Board may be removed only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66⅔% of the voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class. Refer also to the section entitled “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions” in this Proxy Statement for additional information regarding RT and any Byborg rights to Board seats.

The CGN Committee is responsible for (a) identifying individuals qualified to become members of the Board, and (b) recommending that the Board select the director nominees for the next annual meeting or any special meeting of the Company’s stockholders, or to fill a vacancy on the Board. The CGN Committee is also responsible for periodically assessing, developing and communicating with the full Board concerning the appropriate criteria to be utilized in evaluating potential director nominees.

•Commitment to understand the Company and its business, industry and strategic objectives.

•Commitment and ability to regularly attend and participate in meetings of the Board, Board committees and stockholders, number of other company boards on which the candidate serves and ability to generally fulfill all responsibilities as a director of the Company.

•Willingness to represent and act in the interests of all stockholders of the Company, rather than the interests of a particular group.

•Willingness to accept the nomination to serve as a director of the Company.

The Committee will also consider the following factors in connection with its evaluation of each prospective nominee:

•Whether the prospective nominee will generally foster a diversity of backgrounds, skills, perspectives and experiences (provided that the Company and the Board have not adopted any specific policy or criteria regarding director diversity).

•For potential audit committee members, whether the nominee possesses the requisite education, training and experience to qualify as “financially sophisticated” or the equivalent standard under applicable SEC rules, as applicable.

•For incumbent directors standing for re-election, the incumbent director’s performance during his or her term, including the number of meetings attended, level of participation, overall contribution to the Company, number of other company boards on which the director serves, and any changed circumstances affecting the individual director that may bear on his or her ability to continue to serve on the Board.

•The composition of Board and whether the prospective nominee will add to or complement the Board’s existing strengths.

For information regarding the qualifications of each of our directors, we encourage you to read their biographies set forth in this Proxy Statement.

Family Relationships

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, there are no family relationships between any of the Company’s directors or any of its executive officers.

Director Independence

Nasdaq listing rules require that a majority of the board of directors of a company listed on Nasdaq be composed of “independent directors,” which is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion of the company’s board of directors, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The Board has determined that Tracey Edmonds, Juliana F. Hill and James Yaffe are each an independent director under the Nasdaq listing rules and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. Our Chairman, Suhail Rizvi, and György Gattyán, both non-employee directors, were determined not to be independent directors, given their respective relationship with RT and Byborg, our second largest and largest stockholders, respectively, as well as due to Byborg being the Company’s largest licensee. In making these determinations, the Board considered the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director had or has with the Company and all other facts and circumstances the Board deemed relevant in determining independence, including the beneficial ownership of our Common Stock by each non-employee director, and the transactions involving them described below in the section entitled “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions”.

On February 11, 2025, the Company notified Nasdaq of the Company’s temporary noncompliance with the continued listing requirements as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(b) regarding the composition of the Board, because there is no longer a majority of independent directors on the Board. On February 14, 2025, the Company received a deficiency letter (the “Nasdaq Letter”) from Nasdaq, notifying the Company that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605. The Company will rely on the cure period set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(b)(1)(A) with respect to the composition of its Board, which cure period is expected to expire as of August 11, 2025. The Company is in the process of identifying a new independent director to appoint to the Board to fill the vacancy created by the Board Expansion, and the Company anticipates appointing such additional independent director within the cure period under the Nasdaq rules listed above.

Committees of the Board

The standing committees of the Board consist of an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee.

Audit Committee

Ms. Edmonds, Ms. Hill and Mr. Yaffe serve on the Audit Committee of the Board, with Ms. Hill serving as the Chairperson of the Audit Committee. The Board determined that each of these individuals qualify as independent directors according to the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect to audit committee membership. The Audit Committee was established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act. The Board also determined that Ms. Hill qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as such term is defined in Item 407(d) of Regulation S-K. The Board has adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee, which is available on our corporate website at www.plbygroup.com. The information on our website is not part of this Proxy Statement. During 2024, the Audit Committee held eight meetings and acted by unanimous written consent one time.

The Audit Committee’s duties, including those that are specified in our Audit Committee Charter, include, but are not limited to:

•reviewing and discussing with management and the independent auditor the annual audited financial statements, and recommending to the Board whether the audited financial statements should be included in our annual report on Form 10-K;

Board Attendance

Directors are expected to attend our annual meetings of stockholders, and four of our then current Board members and director nominees attended last year’s annual meeting. During 2024, the Board held 19 meetings and acted by unanimous written consent five times, and each director attended at least 75% of the combined Board meetings and meetings of committees on which he or she served (during the period which he or she served).

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

The PLBY Group, Inc. Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy became effective as of February 10, 2021 and was amended on April 20, 2023. Our Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy consists of both cash and equity components. We also currently reimburse our directors for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with attending Board and committee meetings.

On April 20, 2023, the Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy was amended, in consultation with the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consultant, Exequity LLP (“Exequity”). Under the amended policy, the annual equity grant was reduced from $200,000 in grant date value to a grant date value of $100,000, the initial equity grant in grant date value of $200,000 was eliminated, and each non-employee director will be eligible to receive an annual cash retainer of $65,000 for service on the Board. In addition, each non-employee director will be eligible to receive the following additional annual cash retainers for serving in the applicable committee role:

•Chairperson of the Audit Committee: $20,000

•Member of the Audit Committee (other than the Chairperson): $10,000

•Chairperson of the Compensation Committee: $15,000

•Member of the Compensation Committee (other than the Chairperson): $10,000

•Chairperson of the CGN Committee: $15,000

•Member of the CGN Committee (other than the Chairperson): $10,000

•Chairperson and/or Member of a Special Committee: the Board may from time award an additional retainer for non-employee directors serving on a special committee of the Board.

The annual retainers are to be paid quarterly, in arrears. In the event a non-employee director does not serve in a pertinent role for an entire calendar quarter, the applicable retainer will be prorated for the portion of such calendar quarter actually served. Non-employee directors may elect to receive vested shares of Common Stock in lieu of the foregoing cash retainers on the date on which such retainers would otherwise have been paid in cash in accordance with the terms and conditions of our equity incentive plan.

Non-employee directors are also required to retain ownership of at least 25% of the shares of Common Stock of the Company awarded to them (net of taxes) and maintain such ownership until their departure from the Board.

Insider Trading Policy; Hedging and Pledging Prohibition

Our insider trading policy prohibits directors, officers, employees, and consultants (including each of our named executive officers), as well as certain family members, others living in such covered person’s household, and entities whose transactions in Company securities are subject to their influence or control, from trading in securities of the Company (or securities of any other company with which the Company does business) while in possession of material nonpublic information, with certain limited exceptions, including in connection with a Rule 10b5-1 plan adopted in compliance with our insider trading policy. Before any of our directors, executive officers or other covered persons identified by our insider trading policy engages in certain transactions involving Company securities, such person must obtain pre-clearance and approval of the transaction from our General Counsel.

In addition, our insider trading policy prohibits all employees (including our executive officers), members of our Board, and certain consultants, as well anyone living in such persons’ households, entities in which such persons serve as the general partner or in which they own or hold a controlling interest, trusts of which such persons are a trustee, settlor or beneficiary, estates of which such persons are an executor or beneficiary, or any other group or entity where such person has or shares with others the power to decide whether to buy Company securities, from engaging in derivative securities transactions, including hedging, pledging company securities as collateral, holding company securities in a margin account, or other inherently speculative transactions with respect to our capital stock.

Hedging or monetization transactions can be accomplished through a number of possible mechanisms, including through the use of financial instruments such as prepaid variable forwards, equity swaps, collars and exchange funds. Hedging transactions may permit a director, officer or employee to continue to own our securities obtained through employee benefit plans or otherwise, but without the full risks and rewards of ownership. When that occurs, the director, officer or employee may no longer have the same objectives as our other stockholders. Therefore, directors, officers and employees are prohibited by our insider trading policy from engaging in any such transactions.


			26

Table of Contents

Our insider trading policy only permits pledges of our securities by employees, officers and directors with the written pre-approval of our General Counsel. Under that policy, our General Counsel only approves pledges of our securities by directors and officers in amounts consistent with guidelines approved by the CGN Committee of the Board. As of the Record Date, no pledges by officers and directors had been approved in accordance with the policy and the guidelines.

Clawback Policy

We have an executive compensation clawback policy, adopted effective as of November 20, 2023 (the “Clawback Policy”), to address requirements under rules recently adopted by the SEC and Nasdaq mandating the clawback of applicable incentive compensation upon a restatement of our financial statements. The Clawback Policy applies with respect to a restatement of our financial statements even in the absence of any fraud or misconduct by an executive officer. In the event of a required accounting restatement (including a “little-r” restatement) of our financial statements, we are generally required to recover from our applicable executive officers any incentive-based compensation that was based wholly or in part upon the attainment of any financial reporting measure and was received by current or former executive officers after December 1, 2023, to the extent that such compensation based on the erroneously reported financial information exceeds the amount derived from the restated financial information. The Clawback Policy requires that such applicable executive officer return to the Company any such excess compensation received during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date we are required to prepare an accounting restatement. The Clawback Policy provides for mandatory clawback by us of such excess compensation, with certain exceptions, including: (a) the direct expense paid to a third party to assist in enforcing the policy would exceed the amount to be recovered (provided that we must make a reasonable attempt to recover such erroneously awarded compensation, document our reasonable attempts to effect a recovery, and provide that documentation to Nasdaq) and (b) a recovery from certain tax-qualified retirement plans would likely cause such plans to fail to meet the statutory requirements for tax exemption. To facilitate the application of the Clawback Policy, we require our executive officers to agree to repay any such excess compensation in accordance with the Clawback Policy. The Company’s right of recovery under the Clawback Policy is in addition to any other remedies or rights of recovery that are available to the Company under applicable law or pursuant to other Company policies or agreements, including any applicable clawback provisions of the 2018 Plan and the 2021 Plan.

We filed a copy of the Clawback Policy as Exhibit 97.1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. We will disclose in our annual proxy statement any action to recover compensation under the Clawback Policy during or following the end of the most recently completed fiscal year. No such action was required to be taken by us during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. No executive officer incentive-based compensation was tied to any of the restated financial measures for any period. There was no erroneously awarded compensation under the Clawback Policy for 2024.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, references in this section to the “Company”, “PLBY”, “we”, “us”, “our” and other similar terms refer to PLBY Group, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The compensation provided to our named executive officers is detailed in the Summary Compensation Table, other tables and the accompanying footnotes, and narrative following this section. Our named executive officers for 2024 were:

•Ben Kohn, Chief Executive Officer and President

•Marc Crossman, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer

Compensation-Setting Process

Compensation Committee’s Role

Our Board has delegated to its Compensation Committee the authority and responsibility for reviewing, evaluating, and determining the compensation to be paid to executive officers, overseeing our compensation policies, and administering the compensation plans and programs for the Company. The Compensation Committee has overall responsibility for determining and/or approving the compensation of our executive officers, including our Chief Executive Officer. Members of the Compensation Committee are appointed by the Board. The Compensation Committee consists of three members of the Board: Tracey Edmonds, Juliana F. Hill and James Yaffe, none of whom is an executive officer of the Company and each of whom qualifies as an “independent director” under Nasdaq rules. We rely on the knowledge and experience of our Compensation Committee members and our management in determining the appropriate compensation for our executive officers. Our Chief Executive Officer and other members of our management team provide input to the Compensation Committee, which also refers to market data for executive compensation and considers input from our compensation consultants.

Compensation Consultant’s Role

The Compensation Committee has the authority to engage the services of outside consultants. The Compensation Committee has retained Exequity, an independent board and management advisory firm, since September 2022, as its independent compensation consultant. Exequity reports directly to the Compensation Committee.

Our Compensation Committee has reviewed Exequity’s independence under applicable SEC and Nasdaq rules annually. Our Compensation Committee concluded each year that Exequity is independent within the meaning of such rules and that its engagement did not present any conflict of interest.

Management’s Role

Management’s role is to make recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding our compensation programs and policies, and to implement the programs and policies approved by the Compensation Committee. Our Chief Executive Officer makes recommendations to the Compensation Committee with respect to compensation for our executive officers, including our named executive officers, other than himself. The Compensation Committee considers our Chief Executive Officer’s recommendations, but ultimately has final approval of all compensation for our executive officers, including the types of award and specific amounts. All such determinations by our Compensation Committee are discretionary.

No executive officer participated directly in the final determinations regarding his or her own compensation package or was present during such determinations.

The Compensation Committee meets regularly in executive session. Our Chief Executive Officer is not present during Compensation Committee deliberations or votes on his compensation and shall recuse himself from sessions of the Board where it acts on his compensation.

Elements of Executive Compensation

Our current compensation program generally consists of the following components:

•base salary;


			28

Table of Contents

•annual bonuses;

•equity-based awards; and

•other benefits.

We combine these elements to formulate compensation packages that provide competitive pay, reward achievement of financial, operational, and strategic objectives, and align the interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders. The overall use and weight of each compensation element is based on our subjective determination of the importance of each element in meeting our overall objectives, including motivating executive officers with an owner’s mentality.

Base Salary

The Compensation Committee determines base salaries of our executive officers, which are subject to review annually. The Compensation Committee may adjust executive officer base salaries, from time to time, to reflect changes in market conditions or other factors, and subject to the terms of any employment agreements.

The table below sets forth information regarding the year-end base salary amounts for 2024 for our named executive officers (“NEOs”). Except for Marc Crossman, whose base salary was established in 2023, the base salaries of our other named executive officers were established in 2021. All NEOs’ base salaries were established pursuant to employment agreements (including amendments thereto) entered into with the Company.


Name			2024 Base Salary
Ben Kohn			$850,000
Marc Crossman			$400,000
Chris Riley			$400,000

Annual Bonuses

The Company uses annual cash incentive bonuses for executive officers to tie a portion of their compensation to financial and operational objectives achievable within the applicable fiscal year. Each year, the Compensation Committee will select the performance targets, target amounts, target award opportunities and other terms and conditions of annual cash bonuses for the executive officers, subject to the terms of any employment agreement. Following the end of each year, the Compensation Committee will determine the extent to which the performance targets were achieved and the amount of the award that is payable to the executive officers, taking into consideration each individual’s bonus target set forth in their respective employment agreement (which did not change in 2024 from prior years). New Company and individual performance targets were not established for 2024, and no annual performance-based cash bonuses were awarded to the named executive officers for 2024. See note 1 to the “Summary Compensation Table” below for additional details for bonuses paid to each named executive officer for the years 2023 and 2024 (as applicable).

Stock-Based Awards

We use stock-based awards to reward long-term performance and incentivize future performance of our executive officers and other employees and service providers. We believe that providing a meaningful portion of the total compensation package in the form of stock-based awards aligns the incentives of our executive officers with the interests of our stockholders and motivates and helps retain our executive officers and other personnel. Stock-based awards are awarded under the 2021 Plan, which was approved by our stockholders in 2021.

Neither the Board nor the Compensation Committee takes material nonpublic information into account when determining the timing or terms of equity awards, including with respect to options, nor do we time the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation. Although we do not have a formal policy with respect to the timing of our equity award grants, the Compensation Committee has generally granted such awards once a year to directors and executive officers. In addition to the annual grants of equity awards, equity awards may be granted at other times during the year to newly hired or promoted employees, and in other special circumstances. In 2024, we did not grant any stock options, stock appreciation rights, or similar option‐like instruments.

Table of Contents

We generally issue three forms of equity awards:

Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). RSUs represent the right to receive one share of Common Stock for each unit granted, subject to a continued service requirement, so the value of the RSUs is tied to the performance of the Company’s Common Stock. RSUs typically vest over multiple years, subject to continued service through each vesting date. See the “2024 Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table” below for RSUs granted to our named executive officers in 2024.

Performance-based Restricted Stock Units (PSUs). PSUs represent the right to receive one share of Common Stock for each unit granted, subject to a continued service requirement. Whereas the vesting of our RSUs is time-based, our PSUs vest upon the achievement of certain performance metrics determined at the time of the grant of the PSUs, subject to continued service through each vesting date. To date, all of our PSUs have had vesting based upon the achievement of certain share price targets by our Common Stock, as quoted on Nasdaq. As with our RSUs the value of the PSUs is tied to the performance of the Company’s Common Stock.

In October 2021, Messrs. Kohn and Riley received a grant of PSUs that were to vest in four equal tranches arising upon the achievement of each of the following 30-day volume-weighted average prices for a share of our Common Stock: $20, $30, $40 and $50; provided that each such price was achieved on or prior to the seventh anniversary of the vesting start date (February 10, 2021) of such PSUs. The vesting start date was determined pursuant to the terms of our employment agreements with our named executive officers and is related to the closing date of the consummation of the business combination of Playboy and Mountain Crest Acquisition Corp (“MCAC”) in 2021 (the “Business Combination”), pursuant to which our predecessor public company MCAC became PLBY and Playboy became a wholly-owned subsidiary of PLBY. Prior to October 9, 2023, the first three milestones had been achieved, resulting in 75% of the grant having vested. As of October 9, 2023, the vesting terms for Messrs. Kohn and Riley’s PSUs were amended to eliminate the remaining milestone such that the remaining unvested shares vest 50% on June 30, 2024 and 50% on June 30, 2025. No PSUs were granted by the Company in 2024.

Stock Options. Stock options are granted with an exercise price based on the market price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of grant (as quoted on Nasdaq). The stock options will have value to our executive officers only if the fair market value of our Common Stock increases after the date of grant, which provides a strong incentive to our executive officers to increase stockholder value. Additionally, stock options typically vest over multiple years, subject to continued service through each vesting date. We view stock options as inherently performance-based and an effective tool to motivate our executive officers to build stockholder value and reinforce our position as a growth company.

The exact awards granted are not determined based on a specific formula, but rather through the exercise of judgment after considering various factors, including compensation provided to other executives with similar responsibilities, including in our peer group and within our company, the current unvested equity held by such executive officer, and the perceived retentive value of the proposed awards. We also consider each executive officer’s individual performance, including the results and contributions delivered during the year and how they align with our short-term and long-term goals, the executive’s leadership within the Company, the cash compensation received by the executive officer, and feedback received from the executive officer’s peers and team. No stock options were granted by the Company in 2024.

Other Employee Benefits

Like other employees, our executive officers, including our named executive officers, are able to participate in our employee benefit and welfare plans, including life and disability insurance, medical and dental care plans, and a 401(k) plan. We match contributions made to our 401(k) plan by our employees up to 3.5% of their wages, including our named executive officers. All of the named executive officers participated in our 401(k) plan.

In the future, we may provide perquisites or other personal benefits in limited circumstances, such as where we believe it is appropriate to assist our executives in the performance of their duties, to make our executive team more efficient and effective, and for recruitment, motivation, or retention purposes. All future practices with respect to perquisites or other personal benefits for executives will be subject to review and approval by the compensation committee.

Tax and Accounting Considerations

Deductibility of Executive Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), limits the amount that we may deduct from our U.S. federal taxable income for compensation paid to persons who are “covered employees”, for purposes of Section 162(m), to $1 million per covered employee per year. While we are mindful of the benefit of full tax deductibility of compensation, we also value the flexibility of compensating our executive officers in a manner that can best promote our corporate objectives. Therefore, we may approve compensation that may not be fully deductible.

No Tax Reimbursement of Parachute Payments and Deferred Compensation

We did not provide any executive officer, including any named executive officer, with a “gross-up” or other reimbursement payment for any tax liability that he or she might owe as a result of the application of Sections 280G, 4999, or 409A of the Code during 2023 or 2024, and we have not agreed and are not otherwise obligated to provide any named executive officer with such a “gross-up” or other reimbursement.

Accounting Treatment

We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with the authoritative guidance set forth in ASC Topic 718, which requires companies to measure and recognize the compensation expense for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including PSUs, RSUs, and stock options, over the period during which the award recipient is required to perform services in exchange for the award.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the Company’s executive officers currently serves, or in the past fiscal year has served, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee (or other body performing equivalent functions) of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of the Board or the Compensation Committee.

Estimate of Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

The amounts estimated in the table below assume that the relevant triggering event (a termination of employment or change in control, as applicable) occurred on December 31, 2024 and are based on the terms of the applicable employment agreements and equity award agreements that were in effect on that date. The table assumes that any equity awards that vest in connection with the applicable triggering event that are subject to performance conditions are earned at the target level of performance within the applicable period except as may be noted otherwise, and values equity awards based on the closing price of a share of our Common Stock on December 31, 2024 of $1.46.

Employment Agreements

Kohn Option Grant and Employment Agreement

On January 31, 2021, Playboy granted Ben Kohn an option to purchase 172,393 shares of Playboy common stock at an exercise price of $58.89 per share (the “Pre-Closing Option”), which was assumed by the Company in connection with the closing of the Business Combination and converted into an option to purchase 965,944 shares of Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $10.52 per share in accordance with the conversion mechanics for other outstanding options described in the merger agreement for the Business Combination. The Pre-Closing Option generally vested as follows: 1/3 on the first anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination and ratably in 24 monthly installments thereafter.

Playboy entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Kohn in connection with his continued employment as our Chief Executive Officer and President, which became effective upon, and was assumed by the Company in connection with, the closing of the Business Combination (the “Kohn Employment Agreement”). The Kohn Employment Agreement provides for an annual base salary equal to $850,000 and that Mr. Kohn is eligible to earn an annual cash bonus (with a target amount equal to 100% of his base salary and maximum of 200% of his base salary).

The Kohn Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Kohn will be granted the following equity grants during his employment: (1) for the 2021 fiscal year, a Company equity award with a grant date fair value for financial accounting purposes equal to $2,000,000, comprised of 50% stock options and 50% RSUs; (2) beginning in 2022 and for each fiscal year thereafter, an annual Company equity award with a target grant date fair value for financial accounting purposes equal to $2,000,000, which may include performance-based grants; and (3) following the closing of the Business Combination, a special grant of performance-based restricted stock units (the “Initial PSUs”) that if earned would settle in a target percentage of approximately 2.5% of the fully diluted Common Stock of the Company outstanding on the date of grant (including certain executive level equity awards granted at the time of and shortly after the Business Combination) and a special grant of time-based restricted stock units (the “Initial RSUs”) that if earned would settle in a target percentage equal to (x) 2.5% of the fully diluted Common Stock of the Company (determined in the same manner as the Initial PSUs), minus (y) the percentage of the fully diluted Common Stock of the Company (determined in the same manner) represented by the Pre-Closing Option. The Initial PSUs originally were to vest upon the Company’s achievement of each of the following 30-day volume weighted average stock price milestones: $20, $30, $40 and $50, and the Initial RSUs vested in three equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the closing of the Business Combination, in each case subject to Mr. Kohn’s continued employment or service as a director through the applicable vesting dates. Prior to October 9, 2023, the first three Initial PSU milestones had been achieved, resulting in 75% of the Initial PSUs having vested. On October 9, 2023, the vesting terms were amended to eliminate the remaining milestone such that the remaining unvested shares of the Initial PSUs vested 50% on June 30, 2024 and will vest 50% on June 30, 2025.

Mr. Kohn’s employment agreement provides that in addition to being eligible to participate in our standard benefit plans, he will be provided with a company-paid life insurance policy with a death benefit equal to $25 million and a company-paid disability insurance policy with an annualized benefit of not less than $5 million.

If Mr. Kohn’s employment is terminated without cause or he resigns for good reason (as such terms are defined in Mr. Kohn’s employment agreement), he will be entitled to the following: (i) a severance payment equal to 1.5 times the sum of his then-current base salary and target annual bonus, payable over 18 months (or, if such termination occurs within 24 months following a change in control (as defined in the employment agreement), 2.5 times the sum of his then-current base salary and target annual bonus, payable over 30 months); (ii) a pro-rated bonus for the year of termination; (iii) our reimbursement or direct payment of COBRA continuation coverage premiums for up to 18 months following the date of termination; (iv) accelerated vesting of 100% of Mr. Kohn’s then-outstanding non-performance-based equity awards; and (v) continued vesting of certain outstanding performance based equity awards for a period of time following such termination based on actual performance (provided that, if such termination occurs within 24 months following a change in control, 100% of the then-outstanding Initial PSUs will vest in full). In each case, the severance payments described above are subject to Mr. Kohn’s execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims against us and our affiliates.

Mr. Kohn’s employment agreement also includes certain restrictive covenants, including a non-solicitation of employees covenant for a period of 12 months following termination of his employment and standard confidentiality and invention assignment provisions.

Crossman Employment Agreement

On March 22, 2023, Playboy entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Crossman in connection with his employment as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer (the “Crossman Employment Agreement”). The Crossman Employment Agreement provides for an annual base salary equal to $400,000 and that Mr. Crossman is eligible to earn an annual cash bonus (with a target amount equal to 80% of his base salary).

The Crossman Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Crossman will be granted the following equity grants during his employment: (1) beginning in 2024 and for each fiscal year thereafter, an annual equity award with a target grant date fair value for financial accounting purposes equal to $700,000, which may include performance-based grants, and (2) an initial grant of RSUs for 400,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, to be awarded by the Company following commencement of his employment and which will vest in three equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of March 22, 2023, in each case subject to Mr. Crossman’s continued employment through the applicable vesting dates. The Crossman Employment Agreement further provides that Mr. Crossman is eligible to participate in the Company’s standard benefit plans.

If Mr. Crossman’s employment is terminated without cause or he resigns for good reason (as such terms are defined in the Crossman Employment Agreement), he will be entitled to the following: (i) a severance payment equal to the sum of his then-current base salary and target annual bonus for the year of termination, payable in regular installments over 12 months (or, if such termination occurs within 24 months following a change in control (as defined in the Crossman Employment Agreement), 1.25 times the sum of his then-current base salary and target annual bonus for the year of termination, payable in regular installments over 15 months); (ii) a pro-rated bonus for the year of termination; (iii) the Company’s reimbursement or direct payment of COBRA continuation coverage premiums for up to 18 months following the date of termination; and (iv) accelerated vesting of 100% of Mr. Crossman’s then-outstanding non-performance based annual equity awards (and, if such termination occurs within 12 months of March 22, 2023, one-third of the initial RSUs will become immediately vested). In each case, the severance payments described above are subject to Mr. Crossman’s execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims against the Company and its affiliates.

The Crossman Employment Agreement also includes certain restrictive covenants, including a non-solicitation of employees covenant for a period of 12 months following termination of Mr. Crossman’s employment and standard confidentiality and invention assignment provisions.

Riley Employment Agreement

On February 10, 2021, Playboy entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Riley in connection with his employment as the Company’s General Counsel and Secretary, which became effective upon, and was assumed by the Company in connection with, the Business Combination (the “Riley Employment Agreement”). The Riley Employment Agreement provides for an annual base salary equal to $400,000 and that Mr. Riley is eligible to earn an annual cash bonus (with a target amount equal to 80% of his base salary).

The Riley Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Riley will be granted the following equity grants during his employment: (1) beginning in 2022 and for each fiscal year thereafter, an annual equity award with a target grant date fair value for financial accounting purposes equal to $700,000, which may include performance-based grants, (2) a special grant of Initial PSUs that if earned would settle in a target percentage of approximately 0.45% of the fully diluted Common Stock of the Company outstanding on the date of grant (including certain executive level equity awards granted at the time of and shortly after the Business Combination) and (3) a special grant of Initial Options to purchase a target percentage of 0.18% of the fully diluted common shares outstanding on the date of grant (determined in the same manner as the Initial PSUs). If the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the grant date is greater than the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on February 10, 2021, then a portion of the Initial Options were to be converted into a number of time-based restricted stock units equal to (x) the difference between the fair market value per share of our Common Stock on the grant date minus the fair market value per share of such stock on February 10, 2021, multiplied by (y) the number of Initial Options, divided by (z) the fair market value per share of our Common Stock on the grant date.

Mr. Riley’s Initial PSUs originally were to vest upon the Company’s achievement of each of the following 30 day volume weighted average stock price milestones: $20, $30, $ 40 and $50, and the Initial Options vested 1/3 on the first anniversary of February 10, 2021 and then monthly in 24 equal installments thereafter, in each case subject to Mr. Riley’s continued employment through the applicable vesting dates. Prior to October 9, 2023, the first three Initial PSU milestones had been achieved, resulting in 75% of the Initial PSUs having vested. On October 9, 2023, the vesting terms were amended to eliminate the remaining milestone such that the remaining unvested shares of the Initial PSUs vested 50% on June 30, 2024 and will vest 50% on June 30, 2025.

The Riley Employment Agreement provides that in addition to being eligible to participate in our standard benefit plans, Mr. Riley will be provided with a company-paid life insurance policy with a death benefit equal to $10 million and a company-paid disability insurance policy with an annualized benefit of not less than $2.5 million.

If Mr. Riley’s employment is terminated without cause or he resigns for good reason (as such terms are defined in the Riley Employment Agreement), he will be entitled to the following: (i) a severance payment equal to the sum of his then-current base salary and target annual bonus, payable over 12 months (or, if such termination occurs within 24 months following a change in control (as defined in the Riley Employment Agreement), 1.25 times the sum of his then-current base salary and target annual bonus, payable over 15 months); (ii) a pro-rated bonus for the year of termination; (iii) our reimbursement or direct payment of COBRA continuation coverage premiums for up to 18 months following the date of termination; and (iv) accelerated vesting of 100% of Mr. Riley’s then-outstanding non-performance based annual equity awards (and, if such termination occurs within 12 months of February 10, 2021, 1/3 of the Initial Options — and, if applicable, 1/3 of the Make-up RSUs — will become immediately vested) and continued vesting of certain outstanding performance based equity awards for a period of time following such termination based on actual performance (provided that, if such termination occurs within 24 months following a change in control, 100% of the then-outstanding Initial PSUs will vest in full and the Initial Options will become immediately vested and exercisable). In each case, the severance payments described above are subject to Mr. Riley’s execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims against us and our affiliates.

The Riley Employment Agreement also includes certain restrictive covenants, including a non-solicitation of employees covenant for a period of 12 months following termination of Mr. Riley’s employment and standard confidentiality and invention assignment provisions.

Named Executive Officer 2024 Retention Agreements

On December 23, 2024, the Company entered into a retention agreement with each of its named executive officers (collectively, the “Retention Agreements”). The Company has entered into the Retention Agreements in recognition of such officers’ continued contributions to the Company and to incentivize them to remain employed by the Company and its subsidiaries, while also managing the Company’s equity available for grants under the 2021 Plan. The form of the Retention Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 26, 2024.

The Retention Agreements acknowledge that Messrs. Kohn, Crossman and Riley were granted RSUs pursuant to the 2021 Plan for 783,392, 274,187 and 274,187 shares of Common Stock, respectively, as of July 30, 2024, which RSUs vest as of June 30, 2025 (as previously disclosed on Forms 4 for such officers filed with the SEC on August 1, 2024). The Retention Agreements also state that the Company will issue RSUs for 783,392, 274,187 and 274,187 shares of Common Stock to Messrs. Kohn, Crossman and Riley, respectively, in each of 2025 and 2026 (with each year’s RSUs vesting as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2027, respectively) and that such grants are subject to future approval by the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion. Pursuant to the Retention Agreements, under certain limited circumstances and subject to formulas set forth in the Retention Agreements, the intended 2025 and 2026 RSU grants (to the extent not yet actually granted to each of Messrs. Kohn, Crossman and Riley) may be converted into a cash payment to such executives, as applicable. Under the terms of the Retention Agreements, none of Messrs. Kohn, Crossman or Riley will be entitled to the 2025 or 2026 RSU grants (or any cash payments in relation thereto) in the event he resigns or is terminated for cause prior to the issuance of such grants, as applicable.

Equity Incentive Plans

We believe that our ability to grant equity-based awards is a valuable and necessary compensation tool that aligns the long-term financial interests of our employees, consultants, and directors with the financial interests of our stockholders. In addition, we believe that our ability to grant equity-based awards helps us to attract, retain, and motivate employees, consultants, and directors, and encourages them to devote their best efforts to our business and financial success.

Treatment of Outstanding Equity Awards in the Business Combination

In connection with the Business Combination, all outstanding options and RSUs under our 2018 Plan (including the unvested options and RSUs held by the named executive officers as described in the “Outstanding Equity Awards at 2024 Fiscal Year-End” table above) became fully vested. Each outstanding option was assumed by the Company and automatically converted into an option to purchase shares of Common Stock, and each outstanding RSU was terminated and settled in shares of Common Stock. On February 9, 2021, our stockholders approved the 2021 Plan, which became effective upon the closing of the Business Combination. The 2021 Plan governs equity-based awards to be granted by the Company following the consummation of the Business Combination.

401(k) Plan and Similar Plans

We maintain a safe harbor 401(k) plan that provides eligible U.S. employees with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax advantaged basis. Eligible employees are able to defer eligible compensation up to certain Code limits, which are updated annually. We have the ability to make matching and discretionary contributions to the 401(k) plan. Currently, we make a match of each participant’s contribution up to 3.5% of the participant’s compensation. Contributions are allocated to each participant’s individual account and are then invested in selected investment alternatives according to the participants’ directions. Employees are immediately and fully vested in their own contributions and our matching contributions vest after the completion of two years of employment with us by the participant. The 401(k) plan is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, with the related trust intended to be tax exempt under Section 501(a) of the Code. As a tax-qualified retirement plan, contributions to the 401(k) plan are deductible by us when made, and contributions and earnings on those amounts are not taxable to the employees until withdrawn or distributed from the 401(k) plan.

Similar plans outside the United States, some of which are government mandated, cover employees of certain of our international subsidiaries. Several of these plans allow us to match, on a voluntary basis, a portion of the employee contributions.

Pension Benefits

Other than our 401(k) plan, our named executive officers did not participate in, or otherwise receive any benefits under, any pension or retirement plan sponsored by us during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Non-qualified Deferred Compensation

Our named executive officers did not participate in, or earn any benefits under, a non-qualified deferred compensation plan sponsored by us during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Pay Versus Performance

We provide the following disclosure regarding executive compensation for our principal executive officer (“PEO”) and non-PEO named executive officers (“Non-PEO NEOs”) and Company performance for the fiscal years listed below. The Compensation Committee did not consider the pay versus performance disclosure below in making its pay decisions for any of the years shown.


Year	Summary Compensation Table Total for PEO ($)(1)	Compensation Actually Paid to PEO ($)(2)	Average Summary Compensation Table Total for Non-PEO NEOs ($)(3)	Average Compensation Actually Paid to Non-PEO NEOs ($)(2),(3)	Value of Initial Fixed $100 Investment Based on Total Shareholder Return ($),(4)	Net Loss ($)

2024	2,364,766	2,781,839	1,010,700	1,150,583	14.75	(79,397,000)

______________

(1) Mr. Kohn was the PEO for all years shown.

(2) SEC rules require that certain adjustments be made to the totals set forth in the Summary Compensation Table included in this Proxy Statement (the “Summary Compensation Table”) in order to determine “compensation actually paid” for purposes of this Pay Versus Performance Disclosure. “Compensation actually paid” does not represent cash and/or equity value transferred to the applicable NEO, but rather is a value calculated under applicable SEC rules for purposes of this Pay Versus Performance Disclosure. In general, “compensation actually paid” is calculated as total compensation set forth in the Summary Compensation Table, as adjusted to include the fair market value of equity awards as of December 31 of the applicable year or, if earlier, the vesting date (rather than the grant date). None of the NEOs participate in a defined benefit plan, so the following table does not include an adjustment for pension benefits. The below table reflects the required adjustments to reconcile total compensation as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table to “Compensation actually paid” for purposes of the Pay Versus Performance Disclosure.

(3) The Non-PEO NEOs were comprised of: for 2024, Messrs. Crossman and Riley, for 2023, Messrs. Crossman, Riley, Lance Barton and Florus Beuting and Ms. Ashley Kechter; for 2022, Messrs. Barton, Riley and Beuting and Ms. Kechter.

(4) Assumes an initial investment of $100 in our Common Stock on January 1 of the listed year through the end of the listed year. Total return equals stock price appreciation plus reinvestment of any dividends (of which the Company had none for the listed years). Historical stock performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock performance.

Compensation Actually Paid reflects the exclusions and inclusions of certain amounts for the PEO and the Non-PEO NEOs as set forth below. Equity values are calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Neither the PEO nor the Non-PEO NEOs are accruing benefits under a pension plan for services rendered in the covered years, and therefore no additions are required for pension plan service cost in determining Compensation Actually Paid.

The following table reconciles Summary Compensation Table total to Compensation Actually Paid with respect to our PEO for the periods indicated:


Year	Salary ($)	Bonus and Non-Equity Incentive Compensation ($)	Equity Compensation ($)	All Other Compensation ($)	Summary Compensation Table Total ($)	Equity Deductions from Summary Compensation Table Total ($) (1)	Additions (Deductions) to Compensation Table Total ($) (2)	Compensation Actually Paid ($)
