RBC Bearings Incorporated is soliciting proxies for its 2026 annual meeting on September 3, 2026, where stockholders will elect two Class III directors, ratify Ernst & Young LLP as auditor for fiscal 2027, and cast an advisory vote on named executive officer compensation.
For fiscal 2026, RBC reported record results, including net sales of $1,870.9 million (up 14.3% from 2025), net income of $287.6 million (up 16.8%), adjusted EBITDA of $605.3 million, and free cash flow conversion of 119.1%. Net sales, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow posted five-year compound annual growth rates of 25.2%, 28.3% and 19.5%, respectively, and total shareholder return exceeded the peer-group average by about 78% from fiscal 2022 through 2026.
The Board is classified and majority independent, with a Lead Independent Director and fully independent audit, compensation, and nominating and governance committees. Executive pay is heavily performance-based, with the CEO’s 2026 compensation of $20.9 million being 91.7% tied mainly to adjusted EBITDA, ROIC and, prospectively, relative TSR.
RBC Bearings Inc. vice president and secretary John J. Feeney reported an open-market sale of 225 shares of common stock at $657.9401 per share. After this sale, he directly holds 2,378 common shares, including 1,180 shares of restricted stock that vest over several future dates.
Feeney also holds multiple outstanding options to purchase common stock, with exercise prices ranging from $181.58 to $565.22 and expiration dates between 2028 and 2033. These option awards together cover several thousand underlying shares and represent a significant continuing equity stake aligned with the company’s long-term performance.
RBC Bearings director Dolores J. Ennico reported a mix of stock option exercises and share sales in Common Stock. She exercised options to acquire 600 shares at exercise prices of 199.1600 and 127.3300 per share, then sold 600 shares at 636.1144 per share in an open‑market transaction.

Hartnett, and amended the existing employment agreement of Vice President and COO Daniel A. Bergeron, effective around June 2026.
Dr. Hartnett’s new agreement runs initially through March 31, 2027 and raises his annual base salary to $1,591,350, a 3.0% increase, retroactive to June 1, 2026.
