Here are the DEF 14A proxy statements from Korn Ferry (KFY) in our archive over the last 12 months, newest first, and each one links through to the document itself with the summary and the scores our analysis gives it.
A DEF 14A covers the proxy statement, with executive pay and the shareholder votes, so if you follow KFY and want that one kind of document rather than the whole filing history, this is the page to keep. The company's other filings, of every form, are on the full KFY filings page.
Korn Ferry is asking stockholders to approve four items at its 2026 virtual annual meeting, including electing nine directors (eight independent), an advisory vote on executive pay, approval of an amended and restated 2022 Stock Incentive Plan, and ratification of Ernst & Young as auditor.
For fiscal 2026, Korn Ferry reports $2.91B fee revenue, net income attributable to the company of $277 with a 9.5% margin, and diluted EPS of $5.22. Adjusted EBITDA was $497 with a 17.1% margin, while $221M was returned to stockholders via share repurchases and dividends.
Executive pay is heavily performance-based: CEO Gary Burnison earned total compensation of $16.1M, largely in equity, and his annual cash incentive paid out at 200% of target after maximum achievement of rigorous financial and strategic KPIs. Governance features include an independent board chair, fully independent key committees, annual director elections with majority voting, and a 25% special-meeting right.
