Understanding This Pay Ratio

Skechers USA Inc's CEO-to-worker pay ratio of 2,155:1 means that the CEO earned 2155 times more than the company's median employee in FY2024.

The median employee at Skechers USA Inc earned $10,918 annually. At that wage, it would take a median employee approximately 2155 years to earn what the CEO earned in a single year.

Why cross-company pay-ratio comparisons need caution

SEC rules let each company choose its own methodology for identifying the "median employee" (measurement date, statistical sampling, whether part-time pay is annualized, and a de minimis exemption for up to 5% of non-U.S. employees), so a higher ratio doesn't automatically mean less-fair pay practices, it can also reflect workforce mix (a large offshore, outsourced, or part-time-heavy workforce lowers the reported median and raises the ratio for reasons unrelated to CEO compensation itself).

What these SEC numbers do and do not include

Total compensation reported under Item 402 of Regulation S-K reflects grant-date fair value for equity awards, not realized pay, so a CEO may eventually cash in more, or less, depending on stock performance and vesting. The pay ratio itself is calculated against a single median employee chosen under rules that allow statistical sampling, and companies may update methodology year to year.
