Annual General Meeting financial
"Himax Technologies, Inc. to Hold Annual General Meeting on August 12, 2026"
Proxy Statement regulatory
"A copy of the Company’s Proxy Statement has been filed with the SEC"
A proxy statement is a document companies send to shareholders ahead of a meeting that lays out the items up for a vote—like who will sit on the board, executive pay, and major corporate decisions—and provides background so shareholders can decide how to cast their votes or appoint someone to vote for them. Think of it as an agenda plus a ballot and briefing notes, important because the outcomes can change control, strategy, and value.
Record Date financial
"Members whose names appear on the register of members of the Company as at close of business on June 30th, 2026 (“Record Date”) are entitled to vote"
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.
International Financial Reporting Standards financial
"2025 Audited Financial Statements, which have been prepared according to International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board"
International Financial Reporting Standards are a common set of accounting rules used by companies in many countries to prepare and present their financial statements. They matter to investors because they make results easier to compare across borders — like using the same measuring tape — so investors can assess profitability, cash flow and risk more reliably and spot differences that come from business performance rather than differing accounting methods.
independent director financial
"re-elect Mr. Liang-Gee Chen as an Independent Director of the Company"
An independent director is a member of a company's board of directors who is not involved in the company's day-to-day operations and has no significant relationships with the company that could influence their judgment. Their role is to provide unbiased oversight and ensure the company is managed in the best interests of all shareholders. This helps build trust and confidence among investors by promoting transparency and accountability.
audited financial statements financial
"The Company seeks shareholder adoption of the Company’s 2025 Audited Financial Statements"
Audited financial statements are a company's financial reports—like its income, expenses, assets and debts—that have been examined and verified by an independent accountant to confirm they are accurate and complete. For investors, an audit is like having a trusted mechanic inspect a used car: it increases confidence that the financial picture is reliable, reduces the risk of hidden problems, and supports better decisions about valuing or trusting the company.
