NEW YORK — Target is reporting it gave its chairman, CEO and president Gregg Steinhafel a pay package in 2011 of $19.5 million, including stock and option awards that combined valued at $8.5 million

The compensation, however, marks an 18 percent drop from the previous year, when Steinhafel's total package was boosted by a big stock award that was granted in March 2010 that was tied to his performance in 2009.

Steinhafel's base salary was $1.5 million — the same as the year before. He received a $1.25 million bonus and other compensation worth $5.5 million, including $5 million in supplemental pension plan benefits, according to Associated Press calculations.

The company is based in Minneapolis, Minn.
