2006 executive compensation survey.


In 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission's new disclosure rules for executive compensation went into effect. These rules provide investors with a more accurate outline regarding the compensation of top executives and directors of US public companies. The most significant changes include disclosure of annual total compensation, annual change in pension

value and annual, nonqualified deferred compensation (this usually refers to deferred compensation for which there is no tax write-off Write-Off

 or other personal items that exceed $10,000. The new rules apply only to companies that have a fiscal year end of December December: see month.  15, 2006 or later. To provide a more accurate total for the executive compensation in fiscal year 2006, IBO Ibo: see Igbo.  has included the fair value of stock and option awards on the date they were granted.

The 2006 IBO Executive Compensation Survey includes 61 executives from 42 companies and is based upon the companies currently in IBO's three Stock Indexes (see IBO 4/30/07) and Becton Dickinson BD (NYSE: BDX), is a medical technology company that manufactures and sells medical devices, instrument systems and reagents. Founded in 1897 and headquartered in Franklin Lakes, New Jersey, BD employs 27,000 people in nearly 50 countries. . QIAGEN Wikipedia is not the place for advertisement or self-advertising.

To more accurately reflect the proposed total compensation by the company directors, IBO now uses a fair market value for option and stock awards. Total compensation consists of annual short-term and long-term compensation. Also included in the tables are the options exercised by the executive during fiscal 2006.

In 2006, average total short-term executive compensation jumped 31.4% to $1,254,978 compared to a decline of 7.2% in 2005. An increase was expected following the addition of nonequity incentive compensation and new perquisite per·qui·site

Certain compensation previously reported as a bonus is now reported as nonequity incentive compensation. Undetermined performance-related bonuses are listed as nonequity compensation, while any non-performance-related compensation or uncommunicated bonus to an executive is reported as a bonus. The average bonus received by the 27 executives who were awarded bonuses in 2006 was $589,733; in comparison, the average bonus received by the 45 executives in 2005 was less than half at $279,749.

The average nonequity payment for an executive eligible under an incentive plan was $511,305. More than half of the executives received nonequity incentive compensation. Also, as expected, due to new disclosure regulations, all "other" compensation increased significantly from the previous year. Excluding a one-time one-time
