Key Terms

record date, quorum, broker non-votes, advisory vote

4 terms

record date regulatory

"September 18, 2026, the record date for the Annual Meeting"

The record date is the specific day when a company determines which shareholders are eligible to receive a dividend or participate in an upcoming vote. It’s like a cutoff date; if you own the stock on that day, you get the benefits or voting rights. This date matters because it decides who qualifies for certain company benefits.

quorum regulatory

"constituting a quorum"

A quorum is the minimum number of members needed to officially hold a meeting or make decisions. It ensures that decisions are made with enough participation to represent the group’s interests, much like a majority must be present for a vote to be valid. For investors, understanding quorum is important because it affects when and how important company or organization decisions can be legally made.

broker non-votes regulatory

"Broker Non-Votes"

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.

advisory vote regulatory

"Advisory vote to approve the compensation paid"

An advisory vote is a shareholder poll that expresses investors’ approval or concern about a company’s policy, executive pay, board decisions or other governance matters but does not legally force the company to act. Think of it like a customer survey: it signals investor sentiment and can pressure management to change course, so investors watch the result as a guide to future governance, risk and potential shifts in strategy.
