Pay vs. Corporate Profit

ROE is the company's average return on common equity over the three-year period.

CHANGE IN ROE is the improvement or decline in the company's profitability over the 1994-96 period, expressed in terms of a percentage.

RATING shows how an executive compares with industry peers in pay for company profitability. The rating is based on an index that provides equal weight to the company's overall ROE as well as its improvement or decline during the past three years. Both these measurements are divided by an executive's total pay and then compared with others in the same industry grouping.
