New York, NY – April 10, 2026 – Impactive Capital, LP (“Impactive” or “we”), together with its affiliates, is one of the largest shareholders of WEX Inc. (NYSE: WEX) (the “Company” or “WEX”) with an ownership interest of approximately 4.9%. Impactive today announced that it has filed definitive proxy materials in connection with the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”), which is currently scheduled for May 5, 2026.

 

Additionally, Impactive sent a letter to shareholders detailing how the WEX Board of Directors (the “Board”) has failed to respond to clear investor discontent, neglected to exercise adequate oversight of management, and taken desperate steps to entrench itself.

 

In its letter, Impactive highlights that Board change is needed to course correct and stem the years-long tide of underperformance by the Company, which has led to a severe undervaluation by the market. As Impactive points out, there is no reason why WEX, with the right strategy and operational execution, could not close the valuation gap to its closest competitor, Corpay.

 

The full text of the letter is available here.
