broker non-votes financial

"Nominee | For | | Withhold | Broker Non-Votes Mary Szela | 31,393,310 | 2,614,246 | 7,721,120"

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.

independent registered accounting firm financial

"The appointment of Grant Thornton, LLP to serve as our independent registered accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026"

An independent registered accounting firm is a third-party audit firm, usually a certified public accounting (CPA) practice, that is officially registered with the relevant regulator to perform audits of a public company's financial statements and controls. Like an impartial inspector checking a building's safety, it examines and certifies that a company’s financial records are accurate and comply with accounting rules, which helps investors trust the numbers reported by the company.

advisory basis financial

"The proposal to approve, on an advisory basis, a three-year frequency with which the Company should conduct future stockholder advisory votes"

named executive officer compensation financial

"future stockholder advisory votes on named executive officer compensation was approved by the stockholder vote"

Pay and benefits disclosed for a company’s top executives identified in regulatory filings, including salary, bonuses, stock awards, option grants, pension contributions and other perks. Think of it as a public paycheck summary for senior managers that shows how they are rewarded and motivated. Investors use it to judge whether executive incentives align with shareholder interests, to assess potential costs and risks, and to evaluate corporate governance.

emerging growth company regulatory

"Emerging growth company o o On May 14, 2026, TriSalus Life Sciences, 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.
