克希尔哈撒韦公司(Berkshire Hathway Inc.)将其董事长巴菲特(Warren E. Buffett) 2009年的总薪酬保持在175,000美元。巴菲特几年来的薪酬一直维持在这一相对不高的水平。在最新的福布斯(Forbes)全球最富400人排行榜上，巴菲特名列第三，他继续持有伯克希尔哈撒韦这家投资公司的大量股份。巴菲特持有伯克希尔哈撒韦公司350,000股A类股和7,500万股B类股，以近期股价计算价值超过490亿美元，占公司总股本的24.3%。
受手中所持大量股票的良好表现推动，伯克希尔哈撒韦公司不包括特殊项目的投资回报已经强劲反弹，但公司旗下几家经济状况敏感型子公司的疲弱表现继续对在伯克希尔哈撒韦的利润产生负面影响。
2009年，该公司实现利润81亿美元，这虽高于上一年的50亿美元，但却大大低于2007年的132亿美元。
除了让巴菲特的薪酬维持往年水平外，伯克希尔哈撒韦也将公司副董事长芒格(Charles T. Munger)的薪酬继续维持在100,000美元。但该公司将其首席财务长汉堡(Marc D. Hamburg)的薪酬上调了11%，增至874,750美元。
伯克希尔哈撒韦公司的B类股周四收盘上涨29美分，升至82.36美元，涨幅0.4%。该公司的B类股今年早些时候进行了拆股，该股过去一年中有三个多季度都在上涨。伯克希尔哈撒韦公司的A类股周四上涨47美元，至123,500美元。

Berkshire Hathway Inc. kept Chairman Warren E. Buffett's total compensation at $175,000 in 2009, in line with the famed investor's relatively modest pay over the years.
Mr. Buffett, No. 3 on the newest Forbes 400 list of the world's richest people, continues to hold a giant stake in the investment company. His 350,000 class-A shares and 75 million class-B shares, valued at more than $49 billion at recent prices, represent a 24.3% stake.
Berkshire's underlying returns have rebounded strongly, helped by its vast stock holdings, but weakness in several economically sensitive operating units have continued to weigh on the bottom line.
In 2009, Berkshire earned $8.1 billion, up from $5 billion a year earlier but down sharply from $13.2 billion in 2007.
In addition to keeping Mr. Buffett's pay steady, the company kept Vice Chairman Charles T. Munger at $100,000. However, Berkshire did raise Chief Financial Officer Marc D. Hamburg's pay 11% to $874,750.
In 4 p.m. New York Stock Exchange composite trading, Berkshire's class-B shares rose 29 cents, or 0.4%, to $82.36 cents. The stock, having split earlier this year, is up more than three-quarters over the past year. Berkshire's class-A shares rose $47 to $123,500.
