How Does Greg Yull's Compensation Compare With Similar Sized Companies?
Our data indicates that Intertape Polymer Group Inc. is worth CA$973m, and total annual CEO compensation was reported as US$3.7m for the year to December 2018. While we always look at total compensation first, we note that the salary component is less, at US$800k. We note that more than half of the total compensation is not the salary; and performance requirements may apply to this non-salary portion. We examined companies with market caps from US$400m to US$1.6b, and discovered that the median CEO total compensation of that group was US$1.6m.
Thus we can conclude that Greg Yull receives more in total compensation than the median of a group of companies in the same market, and of similar size to Intertape Polymer Group Inc.. However, this doesn't necessarily mean the pay is too high. A closer look at the performance of the underlying business will give us a better idea about whether the pay is particularly generous.
You can see, below, how CEO compensation at Intertape Polymer Group has changed over time.
Is Intertape Polymer Group Inc. Growing?
On average over the last three years, Intertape Polymer Group Inc. has shrunk earnings per share by 7.1% each year (measured with a line of best fit). In the last year, its revenue is up 15%.
Sadly for shareholders, earnings per share are actually down, over three years. While the revenue growth is good to see, it is outweighed by the fact that earnings per share are down, over three years. These factors suggest that the business performance wouldn't really justify a high pay packet for the CEO. You might want to check this free visual report on analyst forecasts for future earnings.
Has Intertape Polymer Group Inc. Been A Good Investment?
Given the total loss of 23% over three years, many shareholders in Intertape Polymer Group Inc. are probably rather dissatisfied, to say the least. This suggests it would be unwise for the company to pay the CEO too generously.
In Summary...
We compared total CEO remuneration at Intertape Polymer Group Inc. with the amount paid at companies with a similar market capitalization. As discussed above, we discovered that the company pays more than the median of that group.
Earnings per share have not grown in three years, and the revenue growth fails to impress us. Just as bad, share price gains for investors have failed to materialize, over the same period. In our opinion the CEO might be paid too generously! Whatever your view on compensation, you might want to check if insiders are buying or selling Intertape Polymer Group shares (free trial).

When was the last time that Tesla delivered on its promises? Lets go through the list! The last successful would be the Tesla Model 3 which was 2019 with first deliveries 2017. Roadster not shipped. Tesla Cybertruck global roll out failed. They might have a bunch of prototypes (that are being controlled remotely) And you think they'll be able to ship something as complicated as a robot? It's a pure speculation buy.

This article completely disregards (ignores, forgets) how far China is in this field. If Tesla continues on this path, they will be fighting for their lives trying to sell $40000 dollar robots that can do less than a $10000 dollar one from China will do. Fair value of Tesla? It has always been a hype stock with a valuation completely unbased in reality. Your guess is as good as mine, but especially after the carbon credit scheme got canned, it is downwards of $150.

TickerTickle on Figma ·
Figma is still deeply embedded as the default design system in big companies, and the ecosystem (Buzz, Slides, Sites, Make) is clearly the strategic play rather than a one‑off product bet. None of those qualitative assumptions have really broken yet, the bigger change has been sentiment toward growth/AI software in general, not Figma’s product reality. Assuming ~30% annual growth, margins stepping up to 25%, and a 40x PE in 2030 with an 8.4% discount rate is too optimistic now considering how the broader market is now pricing similar SaaS names, which means you can believe in the long term thesis and still accept that the stock might chop sideways or even drift lower while expectations and multiples reset. I will be sharing an update soon.
