(Reuters) – Chipmaker Broadcom CEO Hock Tan’s annual compensation more than doubled to $161.8 million in 2023, a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) showed on Monday.
Tan’s 2023 pay, which was fueled by stock awards of $160.5 million, was 510 times the median salary of employees at the chip firm.
His pay in 2022 came in at $60.6 million, with $53.9 million in stock awards.
The chipmaker closed its $69 billion acquisition of cloud-computing firm VMware last year, after receiving regulatory approval in its key market China and ending a months-long saga.
Broadcom posted 2023 revenue of $35.82 billion, and its stock has risen about 17% so far in 2024 after nearly doubling last year.
