How Does Don Streu’s Compensation Compare With Similar Sized Companies?
At the time of writing our data says that Condor Petroleum Inc has a market cap of CA$9m, and is paying total annual CEO compensation of CA$375k. That’s below the compensation, last year. We examined a group of similar sized companies, with market capitalizations of below CA$264m. The median CEO compensation in that group is CA$155k.
It would therefore appear that Condor Petroleum Inc pays Don Streu more than the median CEO remuneration at companies of a similar size, in the same market. However, this fact alone doesn’t mean the remuneration is too high. We can better assess whether the pay is overly generous by looking into the underlying business performance.
