Annual Meeting of Stockholders financial

"held its 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May 20, 2026"

"elected the Class III nominee named in the Company’s 2026 Proxy Statement"

broker non-votes financial

"Wonya Y. Lucas | 14,988,803 | 1,217,686 | 2,525,465"

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.

independent registered accounting firm financial

"ratified the appointment of KPMG to serve as the Company’s independent registered accounting firm"

An independent registered accounting firm is a third-party audit firm, usually a certified public accounting (CPA) practice, that is officially registered with the relevant regulator to perform audits of a public company's financial statements and controls. Like an impartial inspector checking a building's safety, it examines and certifies that a company’s financial records are accurate and comply with accounting rules, which helps investors trust the numbers reported by the company.

Emerging growth company regulatory

"Emerging growth company"

An emerging growth company is a recently public or smaller public firm that qualifies for temporary, lighter regulatory and disclosure rules to reduce the cost and effort of being public. For investors, it means the company may provide less historical financial detail and face fewer reporting requirements than larger firms, so it can grow more quickly but also carries higher uncertainty—like buying a promising early-stage product with fewer user reviews.
