Lionsgate Studios CEO Jon Feltheimer received total compensation of $19.37 million for the company's 2026 fiscal year, more than double the $9.82 million he earned the previous year, according to a proxy statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The pay package includes a $1.5 million salary, a $6.5 million bonus, and stock awards valued at $10.68 million. The fiscal year ended in March 2026. In fiscal 2025, Feltheimer's compensation was $9.82 million, which itself represented a significant increase from prior years.
The proxy filing provides a detailed breakdown of executive compensation for Lionsgate, which operates film and television studios. Feltheimer has served as CEO since 2000 and has overseen the company's expansion into various entertainment sectors.
The raise comes as Lionsgate has been navigating a changing media landscape, including the growth of streaming services and shifts in theatrical release patterns. The company's stock performance and financial results during the fiscal year were not detailed in the reports.
Executive pay packages are subject to shareholder advisory votes, though such votes are non-binding. The proxy statement also likely includes compensation data for other top executives, but those figures were not provided in the available reports.
