Meg Whitman’s pay package dropped 13 percent last year as she oversaw the split of Hewlett-Packard Co. and changed her leadership roles.

Whitman received total compensation of $17.1 million in the 2015 fiscal year compared with $19.6 million in the previous year, according to a regulatory filing on Monday. Whitman became chief executive officer last year of Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co., which targets businesses with products such as servers and services, and is the chair of HP Inc., which sells computers and printers. HP Inc. is now run by Dion Weisler, whose pay jumped 39 percent to $18.7 million while he was executive vice president for the combined company’s printing and personal systems group.
