Stockholders elected all 11 director nominees to the Board, approved a non-binding (advisory) vote on executive compensation, and ratified the Audit Committee’s appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) as the company’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2026.

Key Details

• All 11 director nominees were elected. Examples of vote totals:

• Ratification of PwC as independent auditor for fiscal 2026: 141,184,878 for; 6,753,339 against; 48,401 abstain.

Why It Matters

• Board composition confirmed: Investors can expect continuity in governance because all nominees were elected. Vote totals show varying levels of shareholder support for individual directors, which can signal where investor concerns or engagement may be focused.
• Say-on-pay passed but with a substantial dissent (about 30% voted against), indicating that a meaningful minority of shareholders were dissatisfied with executive compensation as disclosed in the proxy.
• Auditor ratification: The strong vote in favor of PwC means the company’s independent auditor for 2026 is confirmed, which is relevant for upcoming financial reporting and audit continuity.
