The last 2 years have been brutal for Avigilon's stock price, with 50%+ decline from its early 2014 peak, but terrific for its executives, with 200%+ total compensation increases and a ~$2 million average.

Many complain about Avigilon's high executive turnover but, during their tenure, executives do quite well financially.
Also, interesting to note, Avigilon's CEO (and former COO) were primarily bonused based on revenue rather than profitability, as shown in this excerpt:
Even, the profitability is their disputed 'adjusted EBITDA' rather than net profits.
It will be interesting to see if Avigilon shifts their bonus towards greater profitability but the existing bonus is certainly in line with Avigilon's historical focus of revenue growth.
