Forrester Research, Inc. is asking stockholders to vote at its virtual 2026 annual meeting on May 12, 2026 to elect six directors, amend and restate its Employee Stock Purchase Plan to increase available shares, ratify PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as auditor for 2026, and approve a non-binding advisory vote on executive pay.
For 2025, revenue decreased by approximately 8% to $396.9 million, though the company met its final guidance for revenue, adjusted operating margin, and adjusted EPS. Executive cash incentives under the main plan paid out at about 2% of target, and the compensation committee added discretionary bonuses equal to 25% of target to recognize performance in a difficult year.
CEO and founder George F. Colony, who beneficially owns about 39% of the common stock, resumed a base salary of $650,000 in 2025 after a prior temporary reduction. Other named executives received a mix of salary, low cash bonuses, and meaningful time-based and performance-based equity. The board highlights governance measures including stock retention guidelines, an SEC- and NASDAQ-compliant clawback policy, and majority-independent directors with a lead independent director.
