In this March 18, 2022 article published by CNBC, Spencer Kimball reports that Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla has received a 15% increase in his compensation for 2021 following the company’s increase in profits.
According to the report, Bourla received an $8 million cash incentive on top of his salary of $1.69 million. He also received stock and options totaling $13.2 million and $1.38 million in other compensation.
Bourla’s bonuses came as a reward as Pfizer has booked a profit of nearly $22 billion in 2021, double the previous year’s income. Sales from the COVID vaccine totaled $36.7 billion, accounting for 45% of its annual revenue.
