proxy statement regulatory

"The proposals that were considered at the Annual Meeting are described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement"

A proxy statement is a document companies send to shareholders ahead of a meeting that lays out the items up for a vote—like who will sit on the board, executive pay, and major corporate decisions—and provides background so shareholders can decide how to cast their votes or appoint someone to vote for them. Think of it as an agenda plus a ballot and briefing notes, important because the outcomes can change control, strategy, and value.

View in glossary

cumulative perpetual preferred stock financial

"5.35% Series A Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock outstanding"

A cumulative perpetual preferred stock is a share that acts like a long-lasting hybrid between a bond and a dividend-paying stock: it promises regular fixed payments that, if missed, accumulate and must be paid later before common shareholders get dividends, and it has no set maturity date. Investors care because it can provide steady, higher-priority income similar to interest, but with limited capital upside, sensitivity to interest rates, and the risk that payments can be delayed even though they continue to accrue.

floating rate financial

"the Company’s Floating Rate Series A4 Preferred Stock outstanding"

An interest rate on a loan, bond or deposit that is not fixed but resets at regular intervals based on a reference market rate plus a set margin, so the payments rise or fall as overall interest rates change. For investors, floating-rate instruments act like a weather vane: they can protect income when rates climb by increasing payouts, but they introduce unpredictable cash flow and price movement when rates fall or shift, affecting expected yield and valuation.
