Insights
TL;DR: Routine annual meeting outcomes; incumbents re-elected and auditor ratified; advisory pay approved by majority.
The results reflect continuity in governance with all six nominees receiving majority support and the independent auditor receiving overwhelming ratification (4,919,573 votes in favor). The advisory say-on-pay passed by a clear majority (2,717,857 for), though it is non-binding. Reported broker non-votes (2,206,675) materially reduced the number of shares voting on some matters, which is relevant when assessing shareholder engagement levels. Overall, these are routine, non-material corporate governance outcomes for investors.
TL;DR: Board continuity affirmed; advisory vote passed; notable broker non-votes reduce participation on certain proposals.
All incumbent directors were re-elected with several hundred thousand withheld votes each (between 208,765 and 231,359), indicating some shareholder dissent though not enough to block election. The auditor was comfortably ratified. The advisory executive compensation vote passed but remains non-binding, so it signals shareholder sentiment without forcing action. The sizable broker non-vote tally (2,206,675) is a governance datapoint for proxy solicitation effectiveness and vote coverage.
