Nvidia sets $4 million target cash bonus for CEO Huang under fiscal 2027 plan

Nvidia ​has adopted a new variable ‌compensation plan for fiscal ​2027 that sets ⁠a target cash bonus of $4 million for CEO Jensen Huang, ‌according to a regulatory filing on Friday.

The ‌plan, approved by ‌Nvidia’s ⁠compensation committee on March ⁠2, ties executive cash bonuses to the achievement of specific revenue ​goals for ‌the fiscal year ending January 31, 2027.

Huang’s total compensation for 2025 was $49.9 ‌million, driven largely by stock ​awards valued at $38.8 million, according to a ⁠regulatory filing in May last year.

The filing comes ‌after Nvidia last month reported better-than-expected results for the January quarter and forecast current-quarter revenue above Wall Street estimates, underscoring ‌expectations that heavy spending by ​Big Tech on artificial intelligence processors will ⁠continue.

The world’s most valuable company ⁠said it expects fiscal first-quarter sales of $78 ‌billion, plus or minus 2%.
