After the decline in sales of the iPhone - Tim Cook gets only $ 125 million

Sales of Apple's main product, the iPhone, have deteriorated during the recent period, and the Apple company has not been able to reach specific sales during 2019, unlike what it did in 2018.


Tim Cook's annual income

Apple CEO Tim Cook in 2018 received an annual salary of $ 3 million and bonuses and compensation of $ 12 million after reaching 200% of the US company's goals and achieving high net sales.

In 2019, Cook received the same salary as last year, which amounted to $ 3 million, and with only 128% of Apple's goals and a decrease in iPhone sales, Tim Cook's bonuses and bonuses were reduced to $ 7.7 million instead of $ 12 million last year.

Also, Tim Cook received in 2019 $ 884.466 in concessions, half of the amount comes to secure and protect the CEO and the other half to provide a private plane at any time for travel purposes, in addition to $ 113.5 million in profits from his stake in the shares of the apple company. Cook owns shares worth $ 400 million. .

Apple CEO salaries

Part of the bonuses and bonuses of Apple executives, such as Jeff Williams, COO, Luca Maestre, Chief Financial Officer and General Counsel Kate Adams, have been deducted from their bonuses, dropping from $ 4 million last year to $ 2.6 million for the same reason.

Finally, after hearing all those millions, you may feel envy or envy Tim Cook, but what you do not know is that the CEO of Apple, who may have entered the billionaire club, is planning to donate most of his wealth before his death to charities and charities.


One final clarification

The salaries of the leaderships of major companies, whether Apple or others, are made up of several parts ... The basic salary and with it the profits of a "bonus" is mainly focused on the company's sales There are also additional bonuses that are shares in the company, and their value is determined based on the performance of Apple's stock. The company may be making big profits, but the leaderships are mismanaging the PR media, so rumors that are harmful to the future of the company appear and are not well negated. The stock is going down. Here, Apple's "shareholders" decide to cut the leadership bonus. And vice versa, the company may not profit strongly, but the stock is rising, and here the leaderships receive huge sums of money. As a reminder, Tim Cook got in 2012 a “stock” bonus of $ 376 million for the year 2011, but of course it was restricted to get half of it in 2016 and the other half in 2021 “10-year vesting”. Above, we will see that he got another 113 million shares. Bringing the total of what he received this year to 125 million dollars, compared to 136 million last year.
