General Motors Company (GM)

Mary T. Barra

Chair & Chief Executive Officer

Mary Barra became GM's CEO in 2014. She was the first woman to lead a major global automaker. Her fiscal 2025 pay leaned toward stock and a performance-tied incentive payout rather than a large cash bonus, a mix the board has stuck with year after year.

The breakdown: salary $2,100,000, stock awards $21,623,970, and a non-equity incentive payout of $4,956,000. All other compensation added $1,215,898. GM didn't grant her any stock options this year — none appear in the table at all.

Reported equity holdings

Grade A — Primary Document

$37,185,199.92as of 2026-07-28

428,994 shares × $86.68/share (Yahoo Finance, priced 2026-08-14T13:12:32-04:00)

This counts direct ownership only, and it's after a 108,382-share sale reported on the same filing. Four option grants remain outstanding too, worth roughly 255,600 underlying shares combined, but those are rights to buy rather than owned shares, so they're left out here.
