Disney CEO Bob Iger’s 2025 Pay Package
The Walt Disney Company filed a proxy statement with the SEC today that revealed CEO Bob Iger’s total compensation increased 11.5%, for a total of $45.8 million, in 2025.
Iger’s base salary in 2025 was unchanged at $1 million. He also received Disney stock awards worth $21 million, stock options worth $14 million, a cash bonus worth $7.25 million, and other compensations worth $2.59 million (including $1.85 million for security and $568,670 for personal air travel).
It is expected that the board of Disney will announce a CEO successor to Iger as soon as next month, as Iger’s contract is expiring at the end of 2026. The leading candidates are Josh D’Amaro, chairman of Disney Experiences (overseer of the company’s parks, cruises, and consumer products), and Dana Walden, co-chairman of Disney Entertainment.
According to Disney, “Each internal candidate is going through a rigorous preparation process, including mentorship from Mr. Iger, external coaching and engagement with all Directors.”
