The Estée Lauder Cos. has a new executive team in charge — and now their pay packages, a mix of base salary, pension, stock options, bonuses and more, have been revealed.
First up, Stéphane de La Faverie, president and chief executive officer, has a total pay package for the fiscal year 2025 of $9.6 million, according to filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Some of this will be made up of stock options, the full value of which might never be realized due to fluctuations in stock prices and vesting schedules.
De La Faverie stepped into the top job in January and ever since has been busy implementing his new strategy, “Beauty Reimagined,” to return the beauty company, whose brands include Clinique, Tom Ford and MAC, to growth.
For the three months ended June 30, net sales fell 12 percent to $3.4 billion.
As for other leadership team members, executive vice president and chief financial officer Akhil Shrivastava’s compensation totals $3.6 million. He was promoted to this position in July 2024, taking the helm from Tracey T. Travis, whose 2025 package adds up to $7.5 million.
Executive vice president, chief brand officer Jane Hertzmark Hudis’ compensation is $6.8 million, down from $7.2 million last year.
Fabrizio Freda, former president and CEO, has the greatest compensation, standing at $17.8 million. Freda announced his retirement last year, having run the company since 2009.
Also listed were Rashida La Lande, executive vice president, general counsel, and Peter Jueptner, former group president, international, whose pay packages were listed at $10.9 million and $5.8 million, respectively.
