How Does Man Yuen's Compensation Compare With Similar Sized Companies?
At the time of writing our data says that EGL Holdings Company Limited has a market cap of HK$372m, and is paying total annual CEO compensation of HK$3.0m. (This number is for the twelve months until December 2017). We think total compensation is more important but we note that the CEO salary is lower, at HK$1.9m. We looked at a group of companies with market capitalizations under HK$1.6b, and the median CEO total compensation was HK$1.5m.

However, this does not necessarily mean EGL Holdings Company Limited is paying too much. We can get a better idea of how generous the pay is by looking at the performance of the underlying business.

Is EGL Holdings Company Limited Growing?
Over the last three years EGL Holdings Company Limited has shrunk its earnings per share by an average of 66% per year (measured with a line of best fit). In the last year, its revenue is up 9.4%.

These factors suggest that the business performance wouldn't really justify a high pay packet for the CEO.
