Because Nordstrom exceeded target performance levels for both earnings before interest and taxes and return on invested capital, Nordstrom was entitled to 165.9 percent of his salary, or $1.2 million, in nonequity incentive Chopard Mille Miglia Grand Turismo CH-4 compensation. This compared with zero in the prior year.Because of fluctuating stock prices and vesting schedules, stock and option awards weren't necessarily realized by the executives cited but are required to be filed with the SEC.At least on paper, Nordstrom benefited from a $1.4 million credit for the change in pension value and nonqualified deferred compensation earnings, versus no change in 2008.
His other compensation declined 27.9 percent to $47,000, the majority of Chopard Mille Miglia Jacky Icks Edition CH-66 derived from more than $32,000 in merchandise discounts used by himself and his eligible dependents.In fiscal 2009, Nordstrom weathered the economic downturn better than many of its upscale retail peers. Net income grew 10 percent to $441 million, while sales pulled back 0.2 percent to $8.26 billion and retreated 4.2 percent on a same-store basis.Tiffany easily met its Chopard Mille Miglia Jacky Icks Edition CH-67 targets last year, entitling ceo Kowalski to a $2 million bonus and helping to lift his total compensation by more than two-thirds.
With his $7.9 million package, Kowalski, ceo of Tiffany since 1999 and chairman since 2003, earned 68.4 percent more than his 2008 take of $4.7 million.The biggest portion of his $3.2 million increase was $2 million in nonequity incentive Chopard Mille Miglia Quartz Chronofgraph CH-14 compensation, the maximum amount payable to its ceo, which kicked in when net earnings for the year exceeded the target of $116 million. Tiffany's net income last year was $264.8 million, 20.4 percent above its 2008 level despite a 4.9 percent decline in sales to $2.71 billion.
The incentive bonus equals twice Kowalski's annual salary of $1 million.The sum of Kowalski's stock and option awards grew 8.1 percent to $3.1 million from $2.9 million in 2008. Tiffany also recorded $1.6 million in change in Chopard Mille Miglia Grand Turismo CH-4 value and nonqualified deferred compensation earnings for Kowalski, versus $454,000 in 2009.All other compensation was nearly halved to $168,000 from $322,000.Taking in $5.5 million last year, Jones' Card earned $6.2 million in 2008, but that amount was reduced to $5.4 million when he declined the $810,000 in nonequity incentive plan compensation. He accepted the $2.4 million earned on that budget line last year.
Jones' proxy said Card voluntarily elected not Chopard Mille Miglia Jacky Icks Edition CH-66 accept receipt of the cash award in recognition of business conditions in late 2008 and 2009 and the impact on associates of the company. Jones engaged in aggressive cost cutting, including hundreds of store closures, as it fought to deal with the worst effects of the recession.Card's salary was unchanged at $1.6 million, and his $2.4 million incentive plan payment represented 150 percent of his Chopard Mille Miglia Jacky Icks Edition CH-67 based on the company registering operating income and operating cash flow more than 10 percent above target levels. These calculations exclude nonrecurring items, such as one-time charges for goodwill or store impairment.
Last year, Jones narrowed its net loss to $86.3 million from an impairment-laden loss of $765.4 million in the prior year. Revenues fell 8 percent to $3.33 billion.Card received no option awards for last year's performance, as in 2008, and Chopard Mille Miglia Quartz Chronofgraph CH-14 value of his stock awards fell 63.8 percent to $1.3 million from $3.6 million.There was no change recorded in Card's pension value or nonqualified deferred compensation earnings, as in 2008, and all other compensation rose 7.7 percent to $225,000.
