For 2012 NHRA had $ 98.3M of revenue, $ 97M of expenses for a $1.2M gain. Comptons compensation was $709k
For 2011 NHRA had $ 98.0M of revenue, $101M of expenses for a $3.4M loss. Comptons compensation was $745k
For 2010 NHRA had $104.0M of revenue, $104M of expenses for a $ 12k loss. Comptons compensation was $712k
For 2009 NHRA had $107.7M of revenue, $108M of expenses for a $600k loss. Comptons compensation was $701k
For 2008 NHRA had $122.5M of revenue, $121M of expenses for a $1.9M gain. Comptons compensation was $772k
For 2007 NHRA had $121.5M of revenue, $116M of expenses for a $5.6M gain. Comptons compensation was $745k
So, over the last 7 years this organization has experienced a $22.3M (18%) decrease in revenue, an $18M decrease (15%) in expenses, but the CEO compensation has generally increased. You can see the compensation moving around with revenue and gain/loss, but in many corporations - the CEO would be on the way out with this type of leadership, but the recession provides a safe context! </div></div>
Ah, I see. Thanks for posting that, Marlin. That's interesting. Based on your knowledge of the NHRA, what is your opinion of the complaint? No big deal, or are people in Glendora sweating this? Further, what might be the connection, if any, between this complaint and the rumors of NHRA's attempt to sell the Pro classes (which, it should be pointed out, are unverified as of now).
Perhaps Compton & Company are looking to abandon this ship before the music stops. I'm not much of a conspiracy theorist, but the timing of the letters to the SO guys coming out at almost exactly the same time the sale rumor hits are curious. Maybe just coincidence, but odd timing.
