Insights

Corporate Governance Analyst

All nominated directors were recorded with reported affirmative vote totals; one tally is notably lower.

The filing lists the raw vote counts for each director nominee without percentages or names. High seven- to eight-figure vote counts indicate shareholder participation at scale, but the single reported 435,441 figure diverges materially from the other tallies.

This divergence may reflect an individual nominee receiving substantially fewer affirmative votes or a reporting lineup anomaly; the document provides no explanation or breakdown of withheld/negative votes. Monitor subsequent disclosures or the proxy statement for named vote recipients, percentage shares, and any commentary on contested elections within the next reporting cycle.
