Equilar 100: CEO Pay at the Largest Companies by Revenue

Methodology Notes: The Equilar 100 includes the largest pay packages awarded to CEOs from U.S.-based or listed companies with more than $1 billion in revenue that filed proxy statements for fiscal year 2023 by April 30, 2024. The figures represent what was awarded to a CEO in fiscal year 2023, and include salary, cash bonuses, stock and options awards valued at grant date, and other compensation (including benefits and perks). These numbers exclude change in pension values and above market earnings on deferred compensation. While many of the companies in the Equilar 100 are consistent from year to year, due to changes in revenue the list is not the same every year.
*n/a = CEO did not serve two full fiscal years.
