Advisory basis financial

Broker Non-Votes financial
"No. of Broker Non-Votes Diana L. Day | 91,350,970 | — | — | —"
Broker non-votes occur when a brokerage firm is unable to vote on a shareholder’s behalf during a company election or decision because the shareholder has not given specific voting instructions, and the broker is not allowed or chooses not to vote on certain matters. They are important because they can affect the outcome of votes, especially when the results are close, by effectively reducing the total number of votes cast.
Executive compensation financial
"approved, on an advisory basis, the Company’s executive compensation as reported in the Company’s information statement"
Payments and benefits given to a company's top leaders — including base salary, cash bonuses, stock awards, options and retirement or perquisites — designed to compensate and motivate them. Investors care because these packages affect a company’s costs, influence executives’ decisions and signal how well management’s interests line up with shareholders’; like a captain’s contract, the structure of pay can encourage safe navigation toward long-term gains or risky short-term moves that hurt returns.
