- Ratification of Deloitte as auditor secures the firm responsible for auditing Solid Power’s fiscal 2026 financial statements.
- The non-binding “say-on-pay” vote passed with substantial support (~84% of votes cast), signaling shareholder approval of executive compensation policies, though the board is not legally required to change pay practices based on this advisory vote.
