On a mis­sion to re­shape Sanofi, Paul Hud­son takes a slight pay cut

Up­on reaf­firm­ing his push to re­shape Sanofi last month, CEO Paul Hud­son warned that cuts were in or­der, with noth­ing “off the ta­ble” — ap­par­ent­ly, that in­cludes his pay pack­age.

The phar­ma chief took a slight pay cut last year, rak­ing in just un­der $12.2 mil­lion, down from $12.6 mil­lion in 2020. Most of that’s due to a €360,750 de­crease in the val­u­a­tion of his per­for­mance shares award­ed in 2021 com­pared to 2020. His base pay re­mained the same at €1.3 mil­lion (just over $1.4 mil­lion), and he saw a slight­ly high­er cash bonus of €2.3 mil­lion (near­ly $2.6 mil­lion).
