1 Compustat Executive Compensation Database Mireia Gine Associate Director of Research hservices October 2, 2007

2 Objective A pass on the wide research topics that involve this dataset. Learn about ExecuComp content and structure. Learn the top issues or FAQs.

3 Motivation In 1992 the average CEO of SP500 firm earned $2.7 M. In 2000, the average pay hadincreased to over $14M. An increased of more than 400%. In relative terms: in 1992, CEO were paid 82 times the average earning of an average worker. In 2005, there were paid 369 times.

4 Three explanations 1. The adoption of stock based compensation packages since the late 1980s. Market based incentives to enhance productivity. 2. The fat cat explanation: CEOs are entrenched and have captive boards that allow this pay pyincrease. 3. The market for CEOs has changed: more demand for high talent. More competition for the top of the crowd.

5 Research Issues in Executive Compensation How is CEO compensation determined? Do incentives work? Which part compensates for talent, luck, rent extraction? Why has CEO pay increased so much over the last decade? Has the market for top talent changed? Does the pay increase reflect poorgovernance? What has been the evolution of the gender gap?

6 On ExecuComp Universe: 2,500 companies both active or inactive. S&P 1500 plus companies removed from the index but still trading. Data is collected from each company annual proxy DEF14A, which must be filed 120 days after the company s fiscal year end. How many executives? Up to 9, though most companies only report 5. How are they identified? EXECID is permanent id for each executive through out her career. CO_PER_ROL identifies executive/company combination. Data on executives: Individual characteristics: title, age, gender, date became/left as CEO. Compensation: Salary, Bonus, Restricted Stock Awards, Option Awards, Non Equity Incentive Plan, Deferred Compensation, Pension Plan. Shares Owned. Data on directors compensation (new!).

7 New Reporting Requirements FAS 123 FAS 123 (R) : Equity based compensation has to be expensed and be reflected in the financial statements based on fair value of the awards. Companies with fiscal year end after Dec 2005 have to adjust to new rules. All data available in the past continues to be available; NO info has been purged. DEF14A has new tables : Summary Compensation: discloses salary, bonus, stock awards, option awards, change in pension value other compensation. Option exercises and Stock vested. Plan Based Table: contains details on the option awards, on the restricted stock awards, and estimated payouts for equity and non equity incentive plans. Outstanding awards Table: information on unexercised options, stock that has not vested and equity incentive plan awards outstanding. Deferred Compensation Table: reports the executive or company contributions, earnings and withdrawals and account balances for the deferral programs. Pension Benefits Table: information regarding each plan of the company that provides payments in connection with retirement. Directors compensation: fees, stock awards, options awards, non equity incentive plan

8 ExecuComp Structure for 2006 fiscal year New data tables: AnnComp: summary compensation data + other. PlanBasedAwards : from proxy table of same name. OutstandingAwards: from the Outstanding Equity Awards table. DeferredComp: from the Deferred Compensation table. Pension: from the Pension Benefit table.

15 Top Research Questions 1. What are the main aggregated g compensation items? New data. 2. Stock based compensation: how to identify a unique row. Difference between the aggregated and disaggregated data for restricted stock awards and option awards. 3. How is Black Scholes computed? 4. How does it link to other data sets? i.e. Governance sets.

16 1. Old Compensation Items Pre FAS 123 R: TDC1 & TDC2 were the two most encompassing compensation measures. Using the 1992 format: TDC1= Salary +Bonus+ Other Annual + Total Value Restricted Stock granted + Total Value Stock Options granted + Long Term Incentive Payouts + All Other Total Using the 2006format: TDC1=Salary + Bonus + Non EquityIncentive Using the 2006 format: TDC1= Salary + Bonus + Non Equity Incentive Plan Compensation + Grant Date Fair Value Stock Awards + Grant date fair Value of Option Awards + Deferred Compensation + Other Comp.

17 1. New Compensation Items: FAS 123(R) New compensation items are reported by companies. Hence only available from 2006 onwards. Total Compensation as Reported to SEC: (TOTAL_SEC) Salary, Bonus, StockAwards Awards, Option Awards, NonEquityIncentives Incentives, Pension and Deferred Compensation Changes, Other Comp. Cost recorded by the company on its income statement. Total_ALT1 same definition astotal_sec except thatstock & options are valued using grant date fair value. Compensation as of grant date. Total_ALT2 same definition i i as TOTAL_SEC except that stock & options are valued using stock vesting (SHRS_VEST_VAL) and value realized from option exercise (OPT_EXER_VAL). Actual compensation.

18 2. Stock based Compensation Items Firms may grant options and restricted stock several times a year. Hence, this type of compensation is delivered at an aggregated or disaggregated level. Aggregated variables: 1 record per (firm, co_per_rol, year) Disaggregated variables: produce several records for (firm, co_per_rol, year). Need to add ID variable. Before FAS 123 Options data GRNTNUM. FAS 123 Plan Based Awards table contains all disaggregated data. GRNTNUM applies for all types of awards reported in the table: i.e. shares, equity and non equity incentive plan awards and options. And all of these plans can have several instances.

19 2. Stock based Compensation: Options Stock options awarded during the fiscal year (executive level) OPTION_AWARDS_BLK_VALUE (before FAS 123) OPTION_AWARDS_FV (FAS 123, i.e. data from 2006 onwards) At companylevel? Companies do not report all stock options awarded to all employees. From the DEF14A filling can only be computed for executives. Options exercised during the fiscal year: OPT_EXER_NUM & OPT_EXER_VAL Optionsoutstanding outstanding : OPT_UNEX_EXER_EST_VAL: Estimated value of in the money unexercised vested options. (OPT_UNEX_EXER_NUM) OPT_UNEX_UNEXER_EST_VAL : Estimated value of in the money unexercised unvested options. (OPT_UNEX_UNEXER_NUM)

20 Aggregated and Individual Options Data Before FAS 123 Data from plus few companies still reporting old format for 2006 fiscal year. Available via Web query. All data items in Execcomp.

No longer count for number of options grants. When OPTS_GRT > 0, then entry corresponds to option grant. OPTS_GRT: Number of stock options granted Fair_Value: Grant date Fair value of stock and option Awards. SUM(OPTS_GRT)= OPTIONS_AWARDS_NUM Total number of stock options awarded during the year. SUM(FAIR_VALUE)= OPTIONS_AWARDS_FV Aggregate value of stock options granted during the year.

22 2. Stock Based Compensation: Restricted Stock Restricted Stock awarded during the fiscal year (executive level) RSTKGRNT (before FAS 123, only applies for 1992 format) STOCKAWARDSFV(FAS STOCK_AWARDS_FV 123, i.e. ie data from 2006 onwards) Stock vested during the fiscal year: SHRS_VEST_NUM & SHRS_VEST_VAL Restricted Stock Outstanding : STOCK_UNVEST_VAL : Aggregate market value of restricted shares held by executive (STOCK_UNVEST_NUM) NUM) Details on the stock awarded in Plan based table.

23 3. Black Scholes Option Valuation Methodology The basic instrument used for the determination of a stock option's estimated value at grant. The model features the input of six assumptions: 1. The exercise price, i.e., the price the executive must pay to exercise the option. specified by company in proxy statement, and assumed to be the market price per share at the time of grant. 2. The term of the grant. assumed to be granted on July 1 st of the year for which data is reported and the actual expiration date as reported in proxy. Then, the term is reduced to amount a 70% of the full term since executives rarely wait until expiration. 3. The estimated risk free rate of interest during the term of the grant. the approximate average yield that could have been earned in the particular year by investing in a U.S. Treasury bond carrying a seven year term. 4. The estimated stock price volatility during the term of grant. Use a 60 month volatility number. If the stock has traded for less than one year, we input the average volatility value for the S&P The estimated dividend yield on the stock during the term of the grant. To measure past yields, we average dividend id d yields over a three year period.

24 4. How to link ExecuComp. Few firm characteristics are directly provided. Still, easy to link to Compustat Industrial by Gvkey. CRSP Pricing data: follow same procedure as any other Compustat tproduct. Use CCM to obtain Gvkey Permno link. Alternatively, use CUSIP to link both sets. IRRC Governance data. IBES Analysts Forecasts data. Link by CUSIP Thomson Institutional Ownership data.

25 Conclusions As of fiscal year 2006, Executive Compensation is reported under new filling requirements. More details regarding grant dates, fair value valuation and plan based awards. New director compensation items. Clarified the aggregate and disaggregate stock based compensation items. Compustat s Black Scholes methodology.
