Circle Internet Group, Inc. is asking stockholders to vote at its 2026 virtual annual meeting on four key items: electing three Class I directors, an advisory say-on-pay vote, say-on-pay frequency (with the Board favoring annual votes), and ratifying Deloitte & Touche LLP as auditor.
The proxy highlights Circle’s 2025 momentum: total revenue and reserve income rose 64% to $2.7 billion, supported by USDC circulation reaching $75.3 billion, up 72% year-over-year, and USDC onchain transaction volume climbing 384% to $33.3 trillion. Circle also completed a $1.2 billion IPO and a $1.5 billion follow‑on offering, expanded USDC to 30 blockchains, launched Circle Payments Network and Arc blockchain, and reintroduced USYC, which reached $1.5 billion in assets.
The Board emphasizes a majority‑independent, classified structure, a Lead Independent Director, extensive committee oversight, and a pay‑for‑performance executive compensation program that ties a significant portion of named executive officer pay to ambitious financial and business goals aligned with Circle’s long‑term, regulation‑focused stablecoin strategy.
