CEO pay · what each company told the SEC2026-08-31
The Dodd-Frank Act requires every public company to disclose
the ratio of its CEO's pay to the pay of its median worker. These are the
ratios each company reported to the SEC — not our arithmetic, theirs —
and every one below has been read out of the filing by a person before
it was published. Every figure links to the DEF 14A that carries it. Rows are
sorted highest ratio first; a Texas-headquartered company is in the top table.
No verified ratios yet. Nothing appears in the tables below because the
hand-verified file this page publishes from is empty. That is the honest state
of this beat, not a broken build: the figures exist, they have been extracted,
and they are sitting in the review queue waiting for a person to check them
against the filings. An unchecked ratio is worse than no ratio, so no ratio is
what this page shows.

What is not on this page, and why. This page publishes
0 of the 52 companies the
generator read this cycle. The other 52 are not here
because no person has confirmed their figures yet — not because their
filings are missing or their ratios are small.
A CEO pay ratio is the most quotable number this publication produces, and it
is produced by a program reading prose in a 200-page proxy statement. Run against
real filings, that program has read a customer-service phone number
(1-800-736-3001) as a ratio of 800:1 and an exhibit label
(Exhibit 10-1) as 10:1. Both extraction bugs are fixed. The
posture that follows from having had them is not.
So the arithmetic runs, the results go to a review queue, and a row reaches
this page only after a person has opened the filing, read the sentence, and
written the figures down by hand. That is the same discipline the employee-count
column on the front page runs under, for the same reason and after the same kind
of failure.
This cycle the extractor produced
28 rows whose
reported ratio was independently corroborated by the dollar figures, and
24 it could not corroborate. Neither set is
published. Corroborated is not confirmed.
