Understanding This Pay Ratio

Cutera Inc's CEO-to-worker pay ratio of 7:1 means that the CEO earned 7 times more than the company's median employee in FY2023.

The median employee at Cutera Inc earned $102,795 annually. At that wage, it would take a median employee approximately 7 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).

According to the 2023 DEF 14A proxy statement filed with the SEC, Cutera Inc (CUTR, CIK 1162461) reported the CEO's total compensation at $720K. The proxy statement's structured pay-ratio disclosure reports this total but does not break it down by salary, bonus, equity, or other components.

Cutera Inc operates in the Measuring Instruments sector and is headquartered in DE. Across the Measuring Instruments industry (SIC 38), 83 SEC-reporting companies disclosed pay ratios in FY2025, with a median of 121:1 and an average of 175:1. Median industry CEO pay was $9.0M, so Cutera Inc's $720K sits at or below that typical figure.

This proxy was filed on 2024-06-17; all figures on this page come directly from that public filing and can be verified against the DEF 14A on the SEC EDGAR system.

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.
