Here are the DEF 14A proxy statements from Ready Capital Corporation 9.00% Senior Notes due 2029 (RCD) 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 RCD 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 RCD filings page.
Ready Capital Corporation is asking stockholders to vote at a virtual annual meeting on July 17, 2026 on four key items. Stockholders will elect seven directors, ratify Deloitte & Touche LLP as independent auditor for 2026, and cast an advisory vote on executive compensation.
The company is also seeking approval of an amended and restated 2023 Equity Incentive Plan that would increase shares reserved for issuance by 15,000,000 shares. As of the April 21, 2026 record date, 165,244,071 common shares were outstanding, with each share entitled to one vote.
The proxy describes Ready Capital’s externally managed REIT structure, governance practices, board and committee composition, and a pay program tying cash bonuses and equity awards to metrics such as distributable return on equity and relative total stockholder return. It also outlines director fees and stock ownership guidelines aimed at aligning leaders with stockholders.
