PROXY STATEMENT

GENERAL INFORMATION

This Proxy Statement is being furnished in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors” or the “Board”) of Carlisle Companies Incorporated (the “Company”) of proxies to be voted at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). The Annual Meeting will be held at 8:00 a.m., local time, on Wednesday, April 30, 2025 at The Resort at Pelican Hill, 22701 S. Pelican Hill Rd. South, Newport Coast, California 92657.

In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations (the “SEC rules”), instead of mailing a printed copy of the proxy materials to each stockholder of record, the Company is furnishing proxy materials to its stockholders via the Internet. You will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials unless you request a copy. Instead, the Notice of Availability of Proxy Materials instructs you how to access and review the proxy materials. If you would like to receive a printed copy of the proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting a copy included in the Notice of Availability of Proxy Materials.

The Notice of Availability of Proxy Materials was first provided to stockholders beginning March 18, 2025.

The proxy is solicited by the Board of Directors. The cost of proxy solicitation will be borne by the Company. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail and the Internet, officers and other employees of the Company may devote part of their time to solicitation by e-mail, facsimile or telephone. Arrangements may also be made with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for the forwarding of solicitation materials to beneficial owners and for the reimbursement of their out-of-pocket and clerical expenses incurred in connection therewith. Proxies may be revoked at any time prior to the taking of the vote at the Annual Meeting. See “Voting by Proxy” on page 58.

The mailing address of the Company’s principal executive offices is Carlisle Companies Incorporated, 16430 North Scottsdale Road, Suite 400, Scottsdale, Arizona 85254. Upon written request mailed to the attention of the Secretary of the Company, at the Company’s principal executive offices, the Company will provide without charge a copy of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2024 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Shares Entitled to Vote; Quorum

The record date for the Annual Meeting is March 5, 2025. Only holders of record of shares of the Company’s common stock (“Shares”) as of the close of business on that date will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the record date, 44,149,405 Shares were outstanding. The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast is necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting.

Voting Rights

The Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) provides that holders of Shares are entitled to one vote per Share.

Voting Methods

If your Shares are registered directly in your name with the Company’s transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services, LLC, you are considered the registered holder of those Shares. As the registered stockholder,

1

you can ensure your Shares are voted at the Annual Meeting by submitting your instructions: (i) via the Internet by logging on to www.proxyvote.com and following the instructions, using the Control Number shown on the Notice of Availability of Proxy Materials (or proxy card if you received or request one), for voting; (ii) by telephone (only if you received or request a proxy card) by calling the phone number on the proxy card; (iii) by mail (only if you received or request a proxy card) by completing, signing, dating and promptly returning the proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided; or (iv) by attending the Annual Meeting and voting your Shares in person at the meeting. Internet and telephone voting for registered stockholders will be available 24 hours a day, up until 11:59 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on Tuesday, April 29, 2025. You may obtain directions to the Annual Meeting in order to vote in person by calling the Company’s principal executive offices at (480) 781-5000.

If you hold your Shares indirectly in the name of an intermediary such as a bank, broker or other nominee, rather than directly in your name, then you are considered the beneficial owner of Shares held in street name. As the beneficial owner, you are entitled to direct the voting of your Shares by your intermediary. Banks, brokers and other nominees typically offer telephonic or electronic means by which the beneficial owners of Shares held by them can submit voting instructions, in addition to the traditional mailed voting instruction forms. If you are the beneficial owner of Shares held in street name, please follow the instructions you receive from the holder of record to vote your Shares. As the beneficial owner, if you wish to vote at the Annual Meeting, you will need to bring to the meeting a legal proxy from your bank, broker or other nominee authorizing you to vote those Shares.

If you participate in the Carlisle, LLC Employee Incentive Savings Plan (the “401(k) Plan”) and own Shares through your 401(k) Plan account, Delaware Charter Guarantee & Trust Company d/b/a Principal Trust Company (“Principal”), the trustee of the 401(k) Plan, will vote your 401(k) Plan Shares in accordance with the instructions you provide by voting via the Internet, by telephone or on the voting instruction form. If Principal does not receive voting instructions from you by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on Sunday, April 27, 2025, Principal will vote your 401(k) Plan Shares as directed by the Carlisle Pension and Insurance Committee, the 401(k) Plan administrator, in its discretion.

Voting Requirement to Approve Each of the Proposals

The following sets forth the voting requirement to approve each of the proposals:

Proposal 1, Election of Directors. Directors will be elected by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast (meaning that the number of votes cast “for” a nominee must exceed the number of votes cast “against” such nominee). If any incumbent director who is a nominee for reelection receives a greater number of votes “against” his or her election than votes “for” such election in an uncontested election of directors, the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) provide that the director must promptly tender his or her offer of resignation to the Board for consideration. See “Proposal 1: Election of Directors” for a more detailed description of the Company’s director resignation policy.

Proposal 2, Advisory Vote to Approve the Company’s Named Executive Officer Compensation. Advisory approval of the Company’s named executive officer compensation in 2024 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes of all Shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the proposal at the Annual Meeting (meaning that of the total votes of all Shares represented at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote, a majority of them must be voted “for” the proposal for it to be approved on a non-binding, advisory basis).

Proposal 3, Ratification of the Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. Ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2025 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes of all Shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the proposal at the Annual Meeting (meaning that of the total votes of all Shares represented at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote, a majority of them must be voted “for” the proposal for it to be approved).

2

Other Items. Approval of any other matters requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes of all Shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the item at the Annual Meeting (meaning that of the total votes of all Shares represented at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote, a majority of them must be voted “for” the item for it to be approved).

Effect of Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present or represented for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum for the Annual Meeting. A broker non-vote occurs when a bank, broker or other nominee holding Shares in street name for a beneficial owner votes on one proposal but does not vote on another proposal because, with respect to such other proposal, the nominee does not have discretionary voting power and has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner.

Under the New York Stock Exchange rules (the “NYSE rules”), Proposal 3, the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2025, is considered a “routine” matter, which means that banks, brokers and other nominees may vote in their discretion on this proposal on behalf of clients who have not furnished voting instructions. However, Proposals 1 and 2, the election of directors and the advisory vote to approve the Company’s named executive officer compensation in 2024, respectively, are “non-routine” matters under the NYSE rules, which means that banks, brokers and other nominees that have not received voting instructions from their clients on these matters may not vote on these proposals.

With respect to Proposal 1, the election of directors, you may vote “for” or “against” each of the nominees for the Board, or you may “abstain” from voting for one or more nominees. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered votes cast for the foregoing purpose and will therefore have no effect on the election of director nominees.

With respect to Proposals 2 and 3, the advisory vote to approve the Company’s named executive officer compensation in 2024 and the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2025, respectively, you may vote “for” or “against” these proposals, or you may “abstain” from voting on these proposals. Abstentions will be counted as votes present or represented and entitled to vote on these proposals and will therefore have the same effect as votes “against” these proposals, and broker non-votes will not be considered entitled to vote on these proposals and will therefore have no effect on their outcome. As discussed above, because Proposal 3, the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2025, is considered a “routine” matter, the Company does not expect any broker non-votes with respect to this proposal.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP

The table below provides information about the beneficial ownership of Shares as of February 28, 2025 by each person known by the Company to beneficially own more than 5% of the outstanding Shares as of such date. As defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), “beneficial ownership” means essentially that a person has or shares voting or investment power over shares. It does not necessarily mean that the person enjoys any economic benefit from those shares. The ownership percentages in the table below are based on 44,149,183 Shares outstanding as of February 28, 2025.

4

The table below shows the number and the percentage of Shares beneficially owned as of February 28, 2025 by each director, director nominee and named executive officer and by all directors and executive officers as a group. As of February 28, 2025, a total of 44,149,183 Shares were outstanding.

The Share equivalent units for the directors represent Share equivalent unit awards and restricted Shares the directors elected to defer and invest in Share equivalent units under the Carlisle Companies Incorporated Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors”). Following termination of a director’s service, Share equivalent units will be paid in Shares in a lump sum.

The Share equivalent units for the named executive officers represent Shares earned under the Carlisle Companies Incorporated Incentive Compensation Program (the “Incentive Compensation Program”) that the officers elected to defer under the Carlisle Companies Incorporated Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan”), which will be paid in Shares based on the elections made by the officers under the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan.

PROPOSAL 1:

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The number of members of the Board is currently 11 directors. The Company’s Charter provides for a classified Board of Directors under which the Board is divided into three classes of directors, with each class as nearly equal in number as possible. Three directors are to be elected at the Annual Meeting. If elected, each nominee will serve for a three-year term expiring at the 2028 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified. All of the nominees are currently serving as directors and have agreed to be named in this Proxy Statement and to serve if elected.

Although the Company knows of no reason why any of the nominees would not be able to serve, if any nominee is unavailable for election, the proxy holders intend to vote your Shares for any substitute nominee proposed by the Board. Alternatively, in lieu of designating a substitute nominee, the Board may reduce the number of directors.

Under the Company’s Statement of Corporate Governance Guidelines and Principles, a director is required to submit his or her resignation at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders following the earlier of the date when he or she reaches age 72 or has completed 18 consecutive years of service on the Board. Each of Messrs. Adams, Bohn and Ostrander will reach the age of 72 prior to the Annual Meeting and will submit his resignation from the Board at the Annual Meeting.

The Company’s Bylaws provide for a majority vote standard in uncontested director elections, which means each director nominee must receive a majority of the votes cast with respect to that nominee at the Annual Meeting. For this purpose, a “majority of the votes cast” means that the number of votes cast “for” a nominee must exceed the number of votes cast “against” such nominee. In an uncontested election, if any incumbent director who is nominated for reelection does not receive a majority of the votes cast, the director must promptly tender his or her offer of resignation to the Board for consideration. In such event, the Board may accept such offer of resignation and either decrease the number of directors on the Board or fill the vacancy with a new director, refuse to accept such offer of resignation or take other appropriate action. The Company’s Bylaws provide that directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast in contested elections. The resignation policy set forth in the Company’s Bylaws does not apply to contested elections.

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR” the election of each of the three nominees listed below. Unless otherwise specified, valid proxies will be voted “FOR” the election of each of the three nominees listed below.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Company is governed by the Board of Directors. The Board has general oversight responsibility for the affairs of the Company, which it exercises directly and through its committees. In exercising its fiduciary duties, the Board represents and acts on behalf of the Company’s stockholders. The Board has adopted written corporate governance guidelines and principles, known as the Statement of Corporate Governance Guidelines and Principles. The Board also has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which applies to the Company’s directors, officers (including the principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), employees and consultants. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics includes guidelines relating to the ethical handling of conflicts of interest, compliance with laws and other related topics.

All of the Company’s corporate governance materials, including the charters for the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, as well as the Statement of Corporate Governance Guidelines and Principles and the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, are available on the Company’s website at www.carlisle.com. These materials are also available in print without charge to any stockholder upon request by contacting the Company in writing at Carlisle Companies Incorporated, 16430 North Scottsdale Road, Suite 400, Scottsdale, Arizona 85254, Attention: Secretary, or by telephone at (480) 781-5000. Any modifications to these corporate governance materials will be reflected, and the Company intends to post any amendments to, or waivers from, the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, on the Company’s website at www.carlisle.com. By referring to the Company’s website, www.carlisle.com, or any portion thereof, the Company does not incorporate its website or its contents into this Proxy Statement.

The Board has determined that a substantial majority of the members of the Board are independent under the applicable NYSE rules and SEC rules. The NYSE rules provide that a director does not qualify as “independent” unless the board of directors affirmatively determines that the director has no material relationship with the company (either directly or as a partner, stockholder, or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the company). The NYSE rules recommend that a board of directors consider all of the relevant facts and circumstances in determining the materiality of a director’s relationship with a company. In addition to the NYSE rules and the SEC rules, the Board of Directors has adopted director independence standards to assist the Board in determining whether a director has a material relationship with the Company. Under those standards, which are included in the Company’s Statement of Corporate Governance Guidelines and Principles, a director will not be independent if the director or an immediate family member of the director is, or has been within the preceding three years: (i) employed by the Company or received $120,000 during any 12-month period in direct compensation from the Company, other than director and committee fees and pension or other forms of deferred compensation for prior service (provided such compensation is not contingent in any way on continued service); (ii) employed by or affiliated with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm; (iii) part of an interlocking directorate in which an executive officer of the Company served on the compensation committee of another company that employed the director or an immediate family member of the director; or (iv) employed by another company that made payments to, or received payments from, the Company for property or services in an amount which, in any single fiscal year, exceeded the greater of $1 million or 2% of such other company’s consolidated gross revenues.

In December 2024, the Board of Directors, with the assistance of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, conducted an evaluation of director independence based on the Company’s director independence standards, the NYSE rules and the SEC rules. The Board considered all relationships and transactions between each director (and his or her immediate family members and affiliates) and each of the Company, its

14

management and its independent registered public accounting firm, as well as the transactions described below under “—Related Person Transactions.” As a result of this evaluation, the Board determined those relationships that do exist or did exist within the last three years (except for Mr. Koch’s current employment with the Company) all fall below the thresholds in the Company’s director independence standards, the NYSE Rules and the SEC rules. Consequently, the Board of Directors determined that each of Messrs. Adams, Bohn, Collins, Frias, Myers, Ostrander and Singh and Mses. Hansen and Ricard is an independent director under the Company’s director independence standards, the NYSE rules and the SEC rules. The Board also determined that each member of the Audit, Compensation and Corporate Governance and Nominating Committees (see membership information below under “—Board Committees”) is independent, including that each member of the Audit Committee is “independent” as that term is defined under Rule 10A-3(b)(1)(ii) of the Exchange Act.

In January 2025, the Board elected Ms. Palmer to serve as a director. The Board also determined that Ms. Palmer is an independent director under the Company’s director independence standards, the NYSE rules and the SEC rules.

Mr. Koch, as the Company’s Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer, is responsible for providing the day-to-day leadership of the Company, executing the Company’s strategy, shaping the Company’s corporate vision, developing the operational management of the Company’s businesses, and leading the Company’s strategic direction, the Board’s engagement with stockholders, and the Board’s consideration of key governance matters.

The Board of Directors acknowledges that independent Board leadership is important, and, accordingly, the Company’s Statement of Corporate Governance Guidelines and Principles provides that when the Company’s Chief Executive Officer serves as Chair of the Board, or the Chair is otherwise not considered independent, the independent director then serving as Chair of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee will also serve as the Lead Independent Director. The Lead Independent Director’s duties closely parallel the role of an independent Chair of the Board of Directors to provide an appropriate level of independent oversight for Board decisions. Mr. Adams, as the Lead Independent Director, has the following responsibilities: (i) chairs all meetings of the Board of Directors at which the Chair is not present and all executive sessions of the Board of Directors; (ii) liaises between the Chair and Chief Executive Officer and the independent directors; (iii) consults with the Chair concerning information to be sent to the Board of Directors, meeting agendas and meeting schedules to ensure appropriate time is provided for all agenda items; (iv) calls meetings of independent directors as required; and (v) is available when appropriate for consultation, including stockholder communications. In addition, the Lead Independent Director presides over an executive session of the independent directors at every regularly scheduled meeting of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors believes that the existence of a Lead Independent Director, the scope of the Lead Independent Director’s responsibilities and the regularly scheduled executive sessions of the independent directors all support strong corporate governance principles and allow the Board to effectively fulfill its fiduciary responsibilities to stockholders.

In addition, as previously noted, all of the Company’s directors (other than Mr. Koch, the Company’s Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer) and each member of the Audit, Compensation and Corporate Governance and Nominating Committees meet the independence requirements of the Company’s director independence standards, the NYSE rules and the SEC rules. Therefore, independent directors directly oversee such critical matters as the integrity of the Company’s financial statements, the compensation of executive management, the selection and evaluation of directors and the development and implementation of the Company’s corporate governance policies and structures. In addition, the Compensation Committee conducts an annual performance review of Mr. Koch and, based upon this review and other considerations, makes recommendations for his compensation for approval by the independent members of the Board.

15

The Board has three standing committees: (i) the Audit Committee; (ii) the Compensation Committee; and (iii) the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. Committee members and committee chairs are appointed by the Board of Directors. The members and chairs of these committees are identified in the following table:

The Board of Directors has also adopted a committee chair rotation guideline. Under the guideline, each committee chair typically serves for three years, subject to modifications at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors believes that periodically bringing new leadership to each of the committees will enhance the effectiveness of the committees.

Each committee of the Board of Directors functions pursuant to a written charter adopted by the Board. Set forth below is a summary of the principal functions of each committee. The full texts of each committee charter are available on the Company’s website at www.carlisle.com.

Audit Committee. The Audit Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its responsibility to oversee the corporate accounting, internal controls and reporting practices of the Company and the quality and integrity of the Company’s financial statements. The Audit Committee also assists the Board in its oversight of the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, policies relating to risk assessment and risk management (including with respect to legal and regulatory risk, compliance risk, financial and accounting risk, cybersecurity risk and business continuity risk), material environmental and social issues (including those related to climate and sustainability), the independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence, and the performance of the Company’s internal audit function and independent registered public accounting firm. In so doing, it is the responsibility of the Audit Committee to maintain free and open means of communication among the Board, the independent registered public accounting firm, the internal auditors and the financial management of the Company. During 2024, the Audit Committee held six meetings.

Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee discharges the Board’s responsibilities relating to the compensation of the Company’s executives in such a way as to enable the Company to attract and retain executives of the highest quality. The Compensation Committee prepares the report on executive compensation required to be included in the Company’s annual proxy statement in accordance with applicable SEC rules. The Compensation Committee also reviews and recommends to the independent directors on the Board the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer, reviews and approves the compensation of the Company’s other senior executives and assists the Board in its oversight of the Company’s human capital management. The charter of the Compensation Committee permits the committee to delegate any or all of its authority to one or more subcommittees. During 2024, the Compensation Committee held three meetings.

16

Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee assists the Board by identifying individuals qualified to be members of the Board, consistent with criteria approved by the Board, and recommending such individuals be nominated by the Board for election to the Board by the stockholders or be elected by the Board to fill a vacancy or a newly created directorship. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee also: (i) develops and recommends to the Board a set of corporate governance principles applicable to the Company that are consistent with sound corporate governance practices and in compliance with applicable legal, regulatory and other requirements; (ii) periodically evaluates the performance of the Chief Executive Officer and Chair, discusses succession planning and recommends a new Chief Executive Officer as appropriate; (iii) oversees the annual evaluation of the performance of the Board and its committees; and (iv) monitors and reviews any other corporate governance matters that the Board may refer to the committee from time to time. During 2024, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee held two meetings.

Other Committees. The Board may also establish other committees from time to time as it deems necessary.

The Board of Directors held six meetings during 2024. Each incumbent director attended all meetings of the Board and committees of the Board on which the director served during 2024. At the conclusion of each of the regularly scheduled Board meetings, the independent directors met in executive session without management. Mr. Adams, as the Lead Independent Director, presided over these executive sessions.

The Company’s Statement of Corporate Governance Guidelines and Principles provides that members of the Board are expected to attend the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders absent extenuating circumstances. All of the Company’s directors in office at the time attended the Company’s 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

As more fully described in its charter, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee assists the Board by identifying and evaluating individuals qualified to be directors and by recommending to the Board such individuals for nomination as directors. Pursuant to the Company’s Statement of Corporate Governance Guidelines and Principles, director nominees should possess the highest personal and professional integrity, ethics and values, and be committed to representing the long-term interests of the Company’s stockholders. Nominees should also have outstanding business, financial, professional, academic or managerial backgrounds and experience. Each nominee must be willing to devote sufficient time to fulfill his or her duties and should be committed to serve on the Board for an extended period of time.

Under the Company’s Statement of Corporate Governance Guidelines and Principles, in identifying, recruiting and recommending nominees to the Board, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is committed to including for consideration qualified candidates with diverse backgrounds, including diversity of gender, race and ethnicity, and the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee has consistently included diversity as a desired qualification when conducting searches for director nominees. The Board believes its composition reflects its emphasis on diversity.

In identifying potential candidates for Board membership, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee relies on suggestions and recommendations from directors, stockholders, management and others, including from time-to-time executive search and board advisory firms. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee does not distinguish between director nominees recommended by stockholders and other director nominees. All director nominees, including those recommended by stockholders, are evaluated in accordance with the process described above. Stockholders wishing to suggest candidates to the Corporate

17

Governance and Nominating Committee for consideration as directors must submit a written notice to the Company’s Secretary following the procedures set forth in this Proxy Statement under “Director Nominations by Stockholders” below.

Stockholders may nominate directors for election at the Company’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders by submitting the nominee’s name in accordance with provisions of the Company’s Bylaws, which require advance notice to the Company and certain other information.

Written notice must be received by the Company’s Secretary at Carlisle Companies Incorporated, 16430 North Scottsdale Road, Suite 400, Scottsdale, Arizona 85254 not later than the close of business on the 90^th day nor earlier than the close of business on the 120^th day prior to the first anniversary of the Annual Meeting. As a result, any director nominations submitted by a stockholder pursuant to the provisions of the Company’s Bylaws must be received not earlier than December 31, 2025 and not later than January 30, 2026. However, in the event that the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after the first anniversary of the Annual Meeting (April 30, 2026), notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered or received no earlier than the close of business on the 120^th day prior to the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90^th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10^th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Company.

The notice must contain certain information about the nominee and the stockholder submitting the nomination, as set forth in the Company’s Bylaws

A stockholder, or a group of up to 20 stockholders, owning continuously 3% or more of the Company’s outstanding Shares for at least three years may nominate and include in the Company’s proxy materials for an annual meeting of stockholders up to 20% of the Board (or if such amount is not a whole number, the closest whole number below 20%, but not less than two directors) if such nominating stockholder(s) and nominee(s) satisfy the requirements set forth in the Company’s Bylaws, which require advance notice to the Company and certain other information.

Written notice must be received by the Company’s Secretary at Carlisle Companies Incorporated, 16430 North Scottsdale Road, Suite 400, Scottsdale, Arizona 85254 not later than the close of business on the 120^th day nor earlier than the close of business on the 150^th day prior to the first anniversary of the date that the Company first distributed its proxy statement to stockholders for the Annual Meeting (March 18, 2025). As a result, any director nominations submitted by a stockholder for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to the proxy access provisions of the Company’s Bylaws must be received not earlier than October 19, 2025 and not later than November 18, 2025. However, in the event that the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after the first anniversary of the Annual Meeting (April 30, 2026), notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered or received no earlier than the close of business on the 150^th day prior to the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and not later than the close of business on the later of the 120^th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10^th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Company.

The notice must contain certain information about the nominating stockholder(s) and nominee(s), as set forth in the Company’s Bylaws.

The Board has adopted a policy concerning the review, approval and monitoring of transactions involving the Company and “related persons” (i.e., directors, director nominees and executive officers of the Company or their immediate family members, or stockholders owning more than 5% of the outstanding Shares). The policy covers any such transaction exceeding $120,000 in which the related person has a direct or indirect material interest. Related person transactions must be approved by the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, which will approve the transaction only if it determines that the transaction is in the best interest of the Company. In the course of its review and, if appropriate, approval of a related person transaction, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee considers all of the relevant facts and circumstances, including the material terms of the transaction, the risks, benefits and costs of the transaction, the availability of other comparable services or products and, if applicable, the impact on a director’s independence. There were no related person transactions in 2024.

Risk management is a significant component of management’s annual strategic and operating planning processes. The Company has adopted an enterprise risk management program to identify and mitigate enterprise risk. Under the program, each operating business is required to identify risks to its business and prepare a detailed plan to mitigate those risks. The division presidents present the plans to executive management as part of their strategic and operating plans. Over the course of each year, the division presidents provide similar presentations to the Board of Directors at the Board meetings covering the Company’s business plans. Each year, the Board is briefed by senior leadership and reviews and discusses reports on the Company’s ongoing litigation, cybersecurity risks and insurance coverages.

The Compensation Committee, in consultation with the committee’s compensation consultant, periodically reviews the relationship between the Company’s compensation practices and risk. The Compensation Committee has concluded that the Company’s compensation practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company and do not encourage inappropriate risk taking. The Compensation Committee’s conclusion was based on the following:

19

Under the Company’s Statement of Corporate Governance Guidelines and Principles, a director is required to submit his or her resignation at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders following the earlier of the date when he or she reaches age 72 or has completed 18 consecutive years of service on the Board. The Company’s retirement policy for directors does not have any exemptions or conditions.

21

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Director compensation is determined by the Board based on recommendations made by the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee reviews director compensation at least every two years and makes recommendations to the Board regarding the form and amount of director compensation, including any perquisites and other benefits, and any additional compensation to be paid to the directors for their services. In making its recommendations, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee gives due consideration to what is customary compensation for directors of comparable companies, as well as any other factors it deems appropriate that are consistent with the policies and principles set forth in its charter and the Company’s Statement of Corporate Governance Guidelines and Principles.

Elements of the Director Compensation Program

Directors who are employees of the Company receive compensation as employees of the Company but receive no additional compensation for serving as directors. As discussed more fully below, compensation for non-employee directors is based on an annual service period commencing on the date of each Annual Meeting of Stockholders and is composed of the following elements:

Compensation Benchmarking

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee periodically benchmarks non-employee director compensation to ensure the compensation provided to the Company’s non-employee directors is reasonable and competitive with the market. In April 2024, Willis Towers Watson, the Company’s compensation consultant, presented a director compensation report to the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, including a competitive market analysis of the Company’s director compensation program to confirm whether the program was delivering pay to the Company’s directors within the program guidelines. The director compensation report included market highlights and trends and compared the Company’s director compensation practices, including pay levels and structure of the program, with those of similarly situated companies. For purposes of its analysis, Willis Towers Watson developed market references from recent proxy statement disclosures of a general industry comparator group of 296 U.S.-based public companies with revenues between $3 billion and $9 billion. While the report concluded that the Company’s director compensation program was generally aligned with market practices, including the mix of cash and stock-based compensation, the report noted that the Company’s director compensation was below the 50^th percentile. Willis Towers Watson recommended that the Company increase the amount of cash and stock-based compensation paid to the Company’s directors to an amount that would bring the Company’s total director compensation to slightly above the 50^th percentile. Willis Towers Watson also recommended that the Company simplify its director compensation program by providing a higher fixed board retainer and eliminating additional retainers for service as committee members. After considering the report, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee recommended, and the Board agreed, to modify the Company’s non-employee director compensation program to simplify the retainer structure and increase the total amount of cash and stock-based compensation paid to the non-employee directors for the one-year period that commenced on May 1, 2024 to the amounts recommended by Willis Towers Watson, as further described below.

22

Annual Fees for Board Service and Committee Leadership Roles

The Company pays an annualized retainer fee of $125,000 to each non-employee director. Each non-employee director may elect to receive up to one-half of the annual fee in Shares. Directors do not receive meeting attendance fees.

The Company pays additional annual fees for leadership roles on the Board’s committees. The Chair of the Audit Committee receives an annualized fee of $25,000 and the Chair of the Compensation Committee receives an annualized fee of $20,000. The Chair of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, who also serves as the Lead Independent Director, receives an annualized fee of $45,000.

Stock-Based Awards

Each non-employee director is eligible to participate in the Incentive Compensation Program. The Incentive Compensation Program provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted Shares or units or other stock-based awards to non-employee directors. The Board administers the Incentive Compensation Program with respect to awards to non-employee directors and has the discretionary authority to make all award decisions under the Incentive Compensation Program.

Each non-employee director is eligible to receive a grant of restricted Shares under the Incentive Compensation Program on the date of each Annual Meeting of Stockholders having a grant date fair value of approximately $175,000. Each non-employee director elected to the Board on a date other than the date of an Annual Meeting of Stockholders is eligible to receive a prorated grant of restricted Shares on the date of the director’s election. Restricted Shares granted to each non-employee director have a vesting period ending the earlier of: (i) one year from the date of grant; or (ii) upon the director’s retirement from the Board upon reaching age 72 or after completing 18 consecutive years of service on the Board. On April 30, 2024, the Board granted each eligible director an award of 451 restricted Shares having a grant date fair value of approximately $175,000 based on the closing market price of a Share on that date.

Deferred Compensation Plan

Under the Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors maintained by the Company, each non-employee director of the Company is entitled to defer up to 100% of the cash fee payable or restricted Shares awarded to him or her. Each participant in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors may direct the “deemed investment” of his or her deferral account among the different investment options offered by the Company from time to time. The investment options currently include a fixed rate fund or Share equivalent units for cash fees deferred and Share equivalent units for restricted Shares deferred. All amounts credited to a participant’s account under the Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors vest as follows: (i) for cash fees deferred, such amounts are always 100% vested; and (ii) for restricted Shares deferred, such amounts vest at the end of the vesting period applicable to the restricted Shares deferred. Amounts credited to a participant’s account will generally be paid, or commence being paid, after the participant terminates service as a director. At the participant’s election, payments of deferred cash fees can be made in a lump sum or in quarterly installments over a 10-year period. Payments of deferred restricted Shares under the Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors will be paid in Shares in a lump sum. Payments of deferred cash fees under the Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors are made in cash from the Company’s general assets.

Stock Ownership Policy

The Board has adopted a stock ownership policy that requires significant stock ownership by the Company’s non-employee directors. The stock ownership policy requires each non-employee director to own Shares having a market value equal to five times the annual fee amount within five years of him or her becoming a director.

23

Shares for purposes of this policy include Shares, Share equivalent units and any restricted Shares. Once the required market value ownership level is achieved, no further purchases are required in the event the value of the Shares held by a director falls below the ownership level due solely to a decrease in the market value of the Shares. As of December 31, 2024, each of the directors who had been a member of the Board for at least five years as of that date met the policy’s ownership requirement.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

This section contains a discussion and analysis of the Company’s executive compensation policies and practices and the compensation earned by the Company’s executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table on page 37 of this Proxy Statement (referred to as the “named executives” or the “named executive officers”) under those policies and practices. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) is responsible for oversight of the Company’s compensation policies and practices for all executive officers of the Company, including the named executives.

As you review this section, you will see that the Compensation Committee has adopted executive compensation policies and practices that: (i) link pay and performance, with the Company’s executives having the opportunity to earn substantial compensation over and above their base salaries based on the Company’s performance or the market value of the Shares; (ii) align the interests of the Company’s executives and stockholders; (iii) are transparent and easy to communicate to the Company’s executives and stockholders; and (iv) provide a valuable retention tool for key executive talent.

In 2023, management announced Vision 2030, a strategic vision for the Company following its pivot from a diversified industrial portfolio to a pure play building products company. Vision 2030 is built on the foundation and core capabilities established over the Company’s long history and based on creating sustainable value for stockholders through repeatable execution of solid plans. A critical factor to achieving the Vision 2030 strategic goals is the contribution of motivated employees. Accordingly, the Company’s annual incentive compensation program continues to be directly linked to key financial goals and awards annual incentive compensation to the named executives based on the Company’s progress toward achieving the Vision 2030 strategic goals for the Company.

The executive compensation program provides a further link between executive pay and stockholder interests by including performance Shares and stock options in the long-term, stock-based awards made under the program. The performance Shares are earned based on the total return to the Company’s stockholders (Share appreciation plus dividends) relative to the total stockholder return of the companies comprising the S&P MidCap 400 Index^® over three-year performance periods. The value of the earned performance Shares and the stock options is directly linked to the market value of the Shares. The Company’s stockholders endorsed the executive compensation program at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders where approximately 88% of the votes represented at the meeting and entitled to vote were cast in favor of a resolution approving the compensation earned by the named executive officers under the program in 2023.

In 2024, the Company remained focused on executing the strategies and key actions to support its objectives by continuing implementation of the Carlisle Operating System, divesting non-strategic assets and investing in new acquisitions, both in support of its emphasis on its building products businesses, and strengthening its management talent. The Company’s operational performance during 2024 produced positive financial results and enabled the Company to return capital to stockholders through increased dividends and Share repurchases.

The table below summarizes the Company’s performance for 2024 and 2023 against the annual incentive performance measures selected by the Compensation Committee for determining the annual incentive compensation for the named executive officers.

25

Annual Incentive Performance Measures(1)

The Compensation Committee established the performance measures on which the 2024 annual incentive awards were based, as described on pages 29 and 30. The performance measures were intended to align with the Company’s Vision 2030 strategic goals. As described in this section, the Compensation Committee took the following actions with respect to the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers in 2024:

The Company’s stockholders will have the opportunity at the Annual Meeting to provide feedback to the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee on the Company’s executive compensation program by voting to approve or not approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation earned by the named executive officers under the program in 2024 (the “say-on-pay proposal”). The Compensation Committee encourages all of the Company’s stockholders to carefully review this section, including the compensation disclosure tables below, prior to casting their votes on the say-on-pay proposal included as Proposal 2 in this Proxy Statement.

The Compensation Committee renewed the engagement of Willis Towers Watson as its executive compensation consultant for 2024. Willis Towers Watson provides no services to the Company or its management other than services related to the Company’s executive and non-employee director compensation

26

programs. The Compensation Committee has determined that Willis Towers Watson is independent from the Company and its executive officers and that the services provided by Willis Towers Watson do not raise any conflict of interest.

In September 2024, Willis Towers Watson presented an executive compensation report to the Compensation Committee covering market trends in: (i) executive compensation; (ii) say-on-pay and say-on-equity votes; (iii) potential compensation-related regulatory changes; and (iv) M&A retention programs, and the respective implications for the Company’s executive compensation program.

The Compensation Committee also receives input from Company management in connection with the administration of the Company’s executive compensation program for 2024. In December 2023, Mr. Zdimal, the Company’s Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, provided information and analysis to the Compensation Committee about the financial performance of the Company for 2023 and each of the Company’s operating businesses for which a named executive officer was responsible. Mr. Koch, the Company’s Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer, recommended base salary increases for the named executive officers (other than for himself), and the Compensation Committee approved the recommendations. In addition, the Compensation Committee received input about the refinements made to the performance measures, the threshold, target and maximum performance levels for the performance measures, and the weighting of each performance measure.

The material elements of the total direct compensation provided to executives under the Company’s executive compensation program are: (i) base salary; (ii) an annual cash bonus opportunity expressed as a percentage of each executive’s base salary; and (iii) a long-term, stock-based award, the expected value of which is also expressed as a percentage of base salary. While each element of compensation paid to executive officers is significant, the annual cash bonus and the long-term, stock-based award have the potential to be the largest amounts of the total compensation paid to executive officers.

The following table shows the guiding principles for the Company’s executive compensation program and how the program complies with these principles:

27

Compensation Benchmarking

The Compensation Committee periodically benchmarks executive compensation to ensure the compensation provided to the Company’s executive officers is reasonable and competitive with the market. The Executive Compensation Competitiveness Review (the “Compensation Report”) presented to the Compensation Committee in September 2023 by Willis Towers Watson benchmarked the total pay arrangements of the Company’s executive officers through a competitive market analysis and found that total direct compensation to the executive officers is aligned with the Company’s compensation philosophy of managing total direct compensation between the first and third quartiles of companies of similar size. Willis Towers Watson considers any individual variation in total direct compensation within 20% of target market positioning within a competitive range. The Compensation Report also noted other important factors when evaluating pay levels beyond market data, including an individual’s: (i) performance; (ii) experience or tenure in position; (iii) contribution to the success of the business; (iv) strategic impact; and (v) retention risk. Any variation above or below the guidelines is within reason and explained by experience, strategic impact and scope of executive responsibility. For purposes of its analysis, Willis Towers Watson used data from its 2023 U.S. General Industry Executive Compensation Survey, aged to September 1, 2023 and size-adjusted using linear regression analysis, to predict market rates for an organization of the Company’s size based on total Company or business unit revenues, as appropriate.

Base Salaries

Base salaries provide a baseline level of compensation to executive officers for carrying out the day-to-day duties and responsibilities of their positions.

The Compensation Committee reviews and adjusts base salary levels each year. During the review and adjustment process, the Compensation Committee considers:

The Compensation Committee reviews the named executive officer base salaries in December each year. Any base salary increases approved in December become effective for the succeeding year.

28

In December 2023, the Compensation Committee approved 2024 base salary increases for the Company’s named executives based generally on trends in the market indicating salary increases in the range of 3% to 5%.

2024 Annual Incentive Awards

Annual incentive compensation calculated under the Incentive Compensation Program is based on the overall performance of the Company or a Company business unit compared to pre-established performance measures.

For 2024, the Compensation Committee first established a target annual incentive award expressed as a percentage of each named executive’s base salary. The 2024 target awards were 130% of base salary for Mr. Koch, 80% of base salary for Messrs. Zdimal and Selbach and 75% of base salary for Messrs. Ready and Schwar. The Compensation Committee did not approve a target annual incentive award or any annual incentive award in 2024 for Mr. Berlin, the former President of Carlisle Interconnect Technologies (“CIT”), because CIT was reclassified to discontinued operations effective July 1, 2023 and ultimately sold on May 21, 2024.

The Compensation Committee then selected the performance measures on which the 2024 annual incentive awards would be based. The measures adopted for 2024 annual incentive awards available to Messrs. Koch, Zdimal and Selbach were the Company’s consolidated: (i) sales; (ii) operating income margin; (iii) average working capital as a percentage of sales; and (iv) earnings. The measures adopted for 2024 annual incentive awards available to the other named executive officers were: (i) sales; (ii) operating income margin; (iii) average working capital as a percentage of sales, each as reported by their respective business units; and (iv) the Company’s consolidated earnings. The Compensation Committee believes that each of these respective performance measures tracks whether the Company and its core businesses are operating efficiently and with a view toward long-term, sustainable growth. The Compensation Committee believes that superior performance under these measures will ultimately benefit the Company’s stockholders through increased profits, dividends and Share value.

Finally, the Compensation Committee established threshold, target and maximum levels of performance for each of the measures and determined that 50% of the target annual incentive award would be paid for threshold level performance, 100% of the target annual incentive award would be paid for target level performance and 200% of the target annual incentive award would be paid for performance at or above the maximum level. Under the program adopted by the Compensation Committee, the Company’s performance under each of the measures was independently determined from the other measures, so that an annual incentive award was determined for the actual level of performance under each measure. The annual incentive awards under each measure were then combined to determine the aggregate annual incentive award.

The Compensation Committee approved threshold, target and maximum performance levels for 2024 based on the Company’s 2023 adjusted performance. The tables below show the threshold, target and maximum performance levels for each of the performance measures established by the Compensation Committee for 2024 as well as the Company’s adjusted performance in 2024 and 2023. The results shown below for both 2024 and 2023 reflect the Company’s publicly reported results, excluding results of operations of acquisitions made and dispositions completed (including the associated acquisition and disposal costs incurred during the respective year) as well as results of operations of businesses reclassified to discontinued operations. The 2024 results have also been adjusted to exclude: (i) restructuring costs of approximately $1.7 million (pre-tax) at Carlisle Construction Materials (“CCM”) and approximately $1.2 million at Carlisle Weatherproofing Technologies (“CWT”); and (ii) an insurance recovery of approximately $5.0 million (pre-tax). The 2023 results were adjusted to exclude: (i) asset impairment charges of approximately $1.4 million (pre-tax) at CWT and approximately $700,000 (pre-tax) at CIT; (ii) restructuring costs of approximately $5.0 million (pre-tax) at CCM, approximately $500,000 (pre-tax) at CWT and approximately $7.0 million (pre-tax) at CIT; and (iii) accounts payable of approximately $20.0 million at CWT for a purchase accounting adjustment in connection with the acquisition of Henry Company, LLC. The Compensation Committee approved the adjustments because they are generally

29

nonrecurring or were not anticipated when the respective performance measures were approved at the beginning of the year.

2024 Long-Term, Stock-Based Awards

The Compensation Committee makes annual stock-based awards each year at its first regularly scheduled meeting held in January or February. All stock-based awards are made under the Incentive Compensation Program, which imposes certain restrictions, as described below, on the terms of the awards.

In January 2024, the Compensation Committee awarded stock options, performance Shares and time-vested restricted Shares to the named executives in the amounts shown in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table on page 39. The number of Shares included in the 2024 awards was determined using a formula-based approach. First, the Compensation Committee established a target award opportunity for 2024, expressed as a percentage of base salary, for the named executives based on each executive’s position and the long-term incentive award market range for that position: 525% of base salary for the Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer, 200% of base salary for the Chief Financial Officer and the General Counsel and 150% of base salary for the other named executives (other than Mr. Berlin). The Compensation Committee did not establish a target award opportunity or approve any stock-based awards in 2024 for Mr. Berlin, the former President of CIT, because CIT was reclassified to discontinued operations effective July 1, 2023 and ultimately sold on May 21, 2024.

The Compensation Committee then determined the appropriate blend of the types of equity awards to be included in each named executive’s stock-based award. For 2024, the Compensation Committee elected to use a blend of stock options, performance Shares and time-vested restricted Shares (each weighted one-third of a named executive’s target award opportunity) for all the named executives (other than Mr. Selbach) to support the Company’s pay-for-performance programs and the alignment of executive and stockholder interests. The Compensation Committee did not include stock options having a 10-year term in Mr. Selbach’s annual stock-based awards due to his contemplated retirement within the 10-year option term. For this reason, Mr. Selbach’s award was comprised solely of time-vested restricted Shares. For purposes of calculating the number of stock options, performance Shares and time-vested restricted Shares included in each named executive’s stock-based award, the Compensation Committee used the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model for valuing stock options and the closing market price of a Share on the date of grant for valuing performance Shares and time-vested restricted Shares.

All employees awarded stock options, performance Shares and restricted Shares are subject to a non-competition agreement that prohibits the employee from competing with the Company for one year following his or her termination of employment.

The stock options awarded in January 2024 will vest in equal annual installments over three years. The time-vested restricted Shares awarded in January 2024 will become vested on the third anniversary of the award date.

The performance Shares awarded in January 2024 will become vested on the third anniversary of the award date and will be earned based on the total return to the Company’s stockholders (Share appreciation measured using the average of the closing market prices for a Share for the first 10 and last 10 trading days of the performance period plus dividends) relative to the total stockholder return of the companies comprising the S&P MidCap 400 Index^® over the three-year performance period ending December 31, 2026 in accordance with the following table:
