AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · Sandisk (SNDK)

Sandisk sets pay adjustments for CTO Alper Ilkbahar and CLO Bernard Shek, effective Oct. 1, 2026

Neutral Impact 2 of 5 other Written later

Sandisk's Compensation and Talent Committee approved compensation adjustments for Chief Technology Officer Alper Ilkbahar and Chief Legal Officer Bernard Shek on September 10, 2026, following an annual review of executive pay. The changes take effect October 1, 2026, and the filing does not state the prior salary levels, so the size of the increases cannot be determined from it.

Key points

  • Ilkbahar (CTO): annual base salary of $755,000 and annual short-term incentive target of 100% of base salary.
  • Shek (CLO): annual base salary of $618,000 and annual short-term incentive target of 100% of base salary.
  • CEO David Goeckeler's base salary ($1,300,000) and CFO Luis Visoso's base salary ($875,000) were not changed; the filing states no changes to Goeckeler's base salary.
