The study, which offers an early look at the highest-paid CEOs at U.S. public companies with at least $1 billion in revenue, finds that median CEO pay reached $29.4 million in 2025, up 23.2% year over year. This marks the sharpest rise since 2021, when compensation jumped 30.8% amid widespread post-pandemic incentives. The latest surge likely reflects heightened expectations for chief executives as companies navigate rapid technological change, particularly around artificial intelligence, alongside broader economic pressures. Equity compensation remains the primary driver of CEO pay. The median value of stock awards climbed 38.8% year over year, rising from $15.7 million in 2024 to $21.9 million in 2025. Meanwhile, cash compensation also increased, with base salaries rising 5.3% and bonuses up 17.2%. Perquisites climbed 24.2% year over year to $391,991, driven by growing investment in executive security following the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in December 2024.
