Of that, we can independently verify $373M: 745,545 AMD shares in their latest Form 4 (SEC ↗). The rest is the third-party estimate.
WHAT WE ESTIMATE
varies
Past cash compensation, sold shares, real estate, and other public holdings — estimable from records, but not exact.
WHAT CAN’T BE KNOWN
private
Private company stakes, trusts, cash, debts, and undisclosed assets. Anyone publishing these as a single number is guessing.

HOW THIS IS CALCULATED
We take the shares Lisa Su reports owning in their most recent SEC Form 4 and multiply by the latest share price. That gives a stake value you can check against the filing itself. Everything beyond that stake — real estate, private holdings, cash, past compensation — is estimated or simply not public, and we say so rather than roll it into one number.
BIOGRAPHY
Lisa Su was born in Tainan, Taiwan, in 1969 and moved to the United States at age three when her father, a statistician, came for graduate school. She grew up in New York, took apart and fixed her brother’s remote-control cars as a child, and attended the selective Bronx High School of Science. Engineering was settled early.
She went to MIT and stayed for three degrees in electrical engineering, all the way to a doctorate, doing pioneering work on semiconductor materials. She held senior technical roles at IBM and Freescale before joining AMD in 2012.
She took over as chief executive in 2014 when AMD was near collapse, its stock trading around a few dollars. Su bet the company on a new chip architecture called Zen and on high-performance computing, and over the following decade AMD took share from Intel and became a serious force in AI hardware. The turnaround is regarded as one of the great runs in the industry.
Su is a hired chief executive whose stake came from compensation during that recovery. Its value rose sharply as AMD’s stock did, which is what this page reflects.

Ranked by filing-verified stake
*Estimated net worth is a third-party figure from Forbes (2026), not our own calculation; it is an estimate that changes with the market. The stake value is filing-derived and verifiable; any broader “net worth” is an estimate. Photo: Fuzheado, CC BY 4.0 (Wikimedia Commons). Share counts are the latest reported on SEC filings and change as the executive trades; the price is the last close, so the stake value moves with the market. This is not an official or complete accounting of anyone’s wealth. Educational only — not investment advice.
