How Does Kwok Kwong Hui's Compensation Compare With Similar Sized Companies?
According to our data, Ngai Hing Hong Company Limited has a market capitalization of HK$155m, and paid its CEO total annual compensation worth HK$4.5m over the year to June 2019. That's a notable increase of 11% on last year. We think total compensation is more important but we note that the CEO salary is lower, at HK$2.5m. We looked at a group of companies with market capitalizations under HK$1.6b, and the median CEO total compensation was HK$1.8m.
It would therefore appear that Ngai Hing Hong Company Limited pays Kwok Kwong Hui more than the median CEO remuneration at companies of a similar size, in the same market. However, this fact alone doesn't mean the remuneration is too high. A closer look at the performance of the underlying business will give us a better idea about whether the pay is particularly generous.
