Note: Powell has been CEO of the Golden Valley-based food company since September 2007. Much of his $14.3 million in compensation was from previously issued long-term equity awards, including options he exercised during the year and restricted stock that vested.
The company largely met or exceeded its annual performance goals for organic sales growth, profitability and capital improvement after it accounted for a number of strategic acquisitions and dispositions, including the $765 million sale of the North American Green Giant vegetable business in September.
As a result, Powell and other executives earned a greater-than-targeted annual bonus. Powell's bonus for the year of $2.3 million was a 34-percent increase over the previous year.
