Here are the DEF 14A proxy statements from Kulicke & Soffa Industries Inc (KLIC) 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 KLIC 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 KLIC filings page.
Kulicke and Soffa Industries, Inc. is asking shareholders to vote at a virtual annual meeting on March 4, 2026 to re-elect directors Peter T. Kong and Jon A. Olson, ratify PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as auditor for fiscal 2026, and approve on an advisory basis the compensation of named executive officers.
The board has begun declassifying itself so all directors will stand for annual elections by 2029 and has removed its prior age cap for nominees. As of the December 8, 2025 record date, there were 52,332,616 common shares outstanding, each with one vote. A prior say-on-pay vote in 2025 received 98.21% support, and the company continues to emphasize pay-for-performance using net income, operating margin and relative total shareholder return.
For fiscal 2025, results were impacted by an $87.5 million charge tied to winding down the Electronics Assembly equipment business, leading to adjusted incentive funding of 39.98% of target. The company repurchased about 2,442 thousand shares for approximately $96.5 million under its share repurchase programs and highlights broad use of PSUs and RSUs, stock ownership guidelines, and a clawback policy for senior executives.
