broker non-votes financial
"For each proposal, vote tallies include a column labeled Broker Non-votes"
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.
advisory, non-binding basis financial
"To approve, on an advisory, non-binding basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers"
Certificate of Designations regulatory
"an amendment and restatement of the Certificate of Designations of the Company’s Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock"
A certificate of designations is a formal legal document that spells out the specific rights and rules attached to a particular class of stock, most often preferred shares. It tells investors who gets paid first, what dividends or conversion rights exist, and any voting or liquidation priorities—like an instruction sheet that decides which shareholders get preference if a company pays out or is sold. Those terms directly affect a security’s value and risk.
liquidation preference financial
"the amendment to the liquidation preference of such stock effectuated thereby"
A liquidation preference is a rule that determines who gets paid first and how much they receive when a company is sold, goes bankrupt, or distributes its assets. It gives certain investors a priority claim—often returning their original investment plus any agreed multiple—before other owners receive money, which shapes how much common shareholders and founders ultimately get; think of it as a front-of-the-line pass that affects payout order and investor returns.
emerging growth company regulatory
"Emerging growth company    On June 8, 2026, Strategy Inc"
An emerging growth company is a recently public or smaller public firm that qualifies for temporary, lighter regulatory and disclosure rules to reduce the cost and effort of being public. For investors, it means the company may provide less historical financial detail and face fewer reporting requirements than larger firms, so it can grow more quickly but also carries higher uncertainty—like buying a promising early-stage product with fewer user reviews.
