Stock loses 50 percent but:
The biggest pay package was awarded to Dauman to the tune of $54.2 million. That fiscal 2015 pay package was 22% more than the previous year's. Shareholders didn't fare nearly as well, with the stock dropping 44% and net income falling 19% to $2 billion in the same period. Viacom's regulatory filing shows that $17 million of Dauman's total pay was from a contract renewal. Excluding that renewal, Dauman's pay fell 16%, the filing shows. Viacom didn't respond to a request for comment.
