Comcast Corp. (NASDAQ:CMCSA) Chief Executive Officer Brian Roberts got a boost in compensation last year of 14 percent, according to a recent filing.
Overall, Roberts took in a hefty $31.1 million while the narrative of the takeover of NBC Universal grabbed the headlines.
Comcast said Friday in a regulatory filing that Roberts earned $2.8 million in base salary, $11.2 million in stock and option awards and $10.9 million in cash bonuses.
For security reasons, Roberts also must use the company aircraft when he is traveling for personal reason, which bumped up the total by $195,767.
Comcast noted the Roberts and others at the company “successfully managed the many challenges of advancing the NBC Universal transaction from its signing in December 2009 to its closing in January 2011.”
Comcast closed Friday at $25.21, gaining $0.49, or 1.98 percent.
