Regarding Tim Cook’s total compensation for 2023, his target was set at $49 million, a 40% reduction from the 2022 target of $84 million. However, the proxy filing today reveals that Cook’s actual total compensation for 2023 exceeded the target.

According to the filing, Cook earned $63,209,845 in 2023, approximately 28% higher than the planned $49 million compensation. Although this figure is still around 36% lower than his 2022 earnings, the breakdown includes a $3,000,000 salary, $46,970,283 in stock awards, $10,713,450 in non-equity incentive plan compensation, and $2,526,112 in other compensation.

Apple notes that the median annual total compensation for its employees in 2023 was $94,118, resulting in a pay ratio of 672 to 1 between Cook and the median Apple worker. The company asserts that this pay ratio adheres to SEC rules and is a reasonable estimate based on the disclosed methodology.

The proxy statement also details the compensation for other named executives:

– Luca Maestri, CFO: $26,935,883
– Kate Adams, General Counsel and Secretary: $26,941,705
– Deirdre O’Brien, Senior Vice President of Retail: $26,937,010
– Jeff Williams, COO: $26,961,226

Since 2017, Apple’s board of directors has mandated that Cook utilize a private jet for all business and personal travel for security and efficiency reasons. In 2023, Apple reported spending $1,621,468 on Cook’s personal air travel expenses, more than double the expenditure in 2022. Additionally, Apple allocated $820,309 for personal security, covering both direct costs and a percentage of fixed costs incurred by the company to provide such services.
