How FICO CEO Pay Compares
Will Lansing's $8.0M total compensation is 0% below the Data Analytics industry median of $8.0M. The 62:1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio is 27% lower than the industry average of 84:1. Shareholders broadly support this compensation, with 96.5% approval.
FICO (FICO) disclosed $8.0M in CEO compensation for Will Lansing. The package is structured for retention plus performance alignment, with equity awards taking the largest share.
The CEO-to-median-worker pay ratio runs 62x. Lower ratios typically reflect companies with higher-paid workforces (financial services, technology, professional services) where the median worker pay denominator is itself substantial. Performance has been positive over the three-year window: TSR of 16.8% alongside 8.2% revenue growth. Compensation packages tied to relative TSR or absolute return benchmarks would have vested at or near target levels with this performance profile.
Shareholders ratified the compensation package overwhelmingly: 97% of votes cast supported the company's pay practices at the most recent annual meeting. Say-on-pay support above 95% is typical for well-aligned compensation programs without obvious controversy. FICO operates in Data Analytics with 3,700 employees and $1.7B in annual revenue, and currently carries a market capitalization of $50.0B. Pay comparisons across companies require controlling for these structural factors — a $20M package at a $10B-revenue tech company reads differently than the same package at a $1B-revenue industrial.
