U.S. Bancorp sets CEO Gunjan Kedia pay; Cecere moves to Executive Chairman role

Neutral Impact 3 of 5 leadership Written later

U.S. Bancorp's board set the pay terms for newly appointed CEO Gunjan Kedia, who took over effective April 15, 2025, and for former CEO Andrew Cecere, who is now Executive Chairman. The filing also amends a retirement plan for Cecere, freezing his supplemental benefit, which matters to shareholders because it reflects the cost and structure of top executive compensation during the leadership transition.

Key points

  • Kedia's base salary rises to an annualized $1,200,000, effective April 16, 2025, with a target annual cash incentive of 275% of salary.
  • Kedia receives an additional PRSU award valued at $1,500,000 as of the April 17, 2025 grant date, on top of her February 27, 2025 long-term award.
  • Cecere's annualized base salary as Executive Chairman is $1,400,000, effective April 16, 2025.
  • The Non-Qualified Retirement Plan amendment freezes Cecere's supplemental benefit as of April 15, 2025.
