Insights

Bylaws now allow special meetings at a 25% holder threshold.

Post Holdings adopted amended bylaws effective October 16, 2025, adding a shareholder right to call special meetings when holders represent at least 25% of outstanding voting stock. This is a procedural change in shareholder rights.

Such provisions can facilitate shareholder-initiated meetings outside the regular annual cycle, depending on ownership concentration and coordination among holders. The filing lists the revised bylaws (Exhibits 3.1, 3.2) as the operative documents.

Practical implications depend on actual ownership dispersion and whether any holders meet the 25% threshold. Subsequent disclosures may detail any special meeting requests made under the new rule.
