Lee Shavel, CEO of Verisk Analytics (VRSK), received $8.0M in total reported compensation. The package mix typical at this scale: a small base salary, a larger stock-award component, and performance-tied incentives that vest over multiple years based on relative TSR or earnings benchmarks.
The CEO-to-median-worker pay ratio runs 107x. 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 18.8% alongside 7.0% 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 supported the compensation package at 92% on the most recent say-on-pay vote. Solid support without overwhelming endorsement is the typical pattern for established public companies with conventional compensation programs. Verisk Analytics operates in Data Analytics with 7,500 employees and $2.9B in annual revenue, and currently carries a market capitalization of $40.0B. 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.
