Method & notes
The same-company ratio fell from above 1% of revenue in 2021 to below 0.5% from 2023 onward as Genting Malaysia's revenue recovered.
METHOD & LIMITATIONSHow the numbers were calculated
CEO remuneration uses Genting Malaysia company-level total remuneration for Tan Sri Lim Kok Thay. Revenue uses Genting Malaysia group revenue for the same financial year. The ratio divides RM million by RM million. 2025 revenue is the company's rounded RM11.9 billion financial-snapshot figure, so the 2025 ratio is approximate.
- This is not a judgement about whether the remuneration is high or low; it is a scale comparison.
- Company-level CEO remuneration is used to avoid double counting group remuneration from listed subsidiaries.
- 2021 and 2022 were loss-making years for Genting Malaysia, so profit-based pay ratios can be misleading for those years.
- Employee-benefit expense is shown separately on the CEO Pay page where disclosed.
