Annual Meeting of Stockholders financial

"held its Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2026 Annual Meeting”)"

independent registered public accounting firm financial

"Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm"

An independent registered public accounting firm is an outside accounting company officially registered with the government regulator to examine and report on a public company's financial records and controls. Investors treat its reports like an impartial inspector’s certificate — they add credibility to financial statements, help spot errors or misleading claims, and reduce the risk that shareholders are relying on unchecked or biased numbers.

broker non-votes financial

"Number of Votes Withheld | Broker Non-Votes"

Broker non-votes occur when a brokerage firm is unable to vote on a shareholder’s behalf during a company election or decision because the shareholder has not given specific voting instructions, and the broker is not allowed or chooses not to vote on certain matters. They are important because they can affect the outcome of votes, especially when the results are close, by effectively reducing the total number of votes cast.

non-binding, advisory basis financial

"For the approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, a resolution regarding the compensation"

A non-binding, advisory basis means a recommendation or decision that carries no legal force and does not obligate the parties to act; it’s similar to a friendly suggestion rather than a signed promise. For investors, this matters because such guidance can influence market expectations and management plans but offers no guarantee of follow-through, so investors should treat it as informative input rather than a firm commitment.

named executive officers financial

"regarding the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers"

Named executive officers are the senior company leaders whose names, roles and compensation are singled out in required regulatory filings; this typically includes the chief executive, chief financial officer and the next highest‑paid senior officers. Investors treat this list like a team roster — it shows who makes key decisions, how they are paid and whether incentives align with shareholder interests, so changes or pay patterns can signal governance quality, risk or strategic shifts.
