Peabody Energy Corporation held its 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, where stockholders elected ten directors to one-year terms and approved several key proposals. Stockholders approved, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the company’s named executive officers and also approved the Peabody Energy Corporation 2026 Incentive Plan, which had previously been authorized by the Board subject to stockholder approval and became effective upon that approval.
Stockholders ratified the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm for 2026. Following his re-election, Board Chair Robert A. Malone submitted a resignation effective at the 2027 Annual Meeting due to the company’s age guidelines, but the Board rejected this resignation and authorized him to continue as director and Chair for one additional year, subject to his re-election. The Board also amended its Corporate Governance Guidelines to create the role of Vice Chair of the Board, with an appointment to follow the 2027 Annual Meeting.
