Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey Declines Compensation in 2017 for Third Straight Year

Twitter CEO and co-founder Jack Dorsey again got paid nothing to run the social-networking company last year.

“As a testament to his commitment to and belief in Twitter’s long-term value creation potential, our CEO, Jack Dorsey, declined all compensation for 2017,” the company said in a proxy statement filed Wednesday with the SEC. It’s the third year in a row Dorsey is turning down pay from Twitter.

But Dorsey still owns a bundle of equity in Twitter, whose stock has increased in value 20% since the beginning of 2018. As of April 2 Dorsey owned 18 million shares of Twitter, currently worth $529 million as of Wednesday’s closing price. His holdings represent 2.39% of all outstanding shares.

Dorsey also is the CEO of payments company Square, where his base annual salary was $2.75 for the year ended 2016. He owned 65.5 million shares of Square, according to the company’s 2017 proxy statement, which currently would be worth $3.1 billion. – Source
