HUDSON TECHNOLOGIES INC /NY 8-K

What Happened

• Hudson Technologies, Inc. filed an 8‑K reporting results of its Annual Meeting held on June 10, 2026. Shareholders elected four directors—Loan N. Mansy, Richard Parrillo, Eric A. Prouty and Alan Sheriff—to serve until the 2028 annual meeting. Vote totals for each director were:
  • Loan N. Mansy: 23,249,145 “For”; 1,653,242 “Withheld”; 5,426,284 broker non‑votes.

  • Alan Sheriff: 23,570,881 “For”; 1,331,506 “Withheld”; 5,426,284 broker non‑votes.

Key Details

• Advisory vote on named executive officer compensation: 20,945,349 “For”; 3,797,718 “Against”; 159,320 abstentions; 5,426,284 broker non‑votes.
• Ratification of independent auditor (BDO USA, P.C.) for fiscal 2026: 29,468,060 “For”; 831,926 “Against”; 28,685 abstentions. (No broker non‑votes on this item.)
• Elected directors will hold office until the 2028 annual meeting and until their successors are duly elected and qualified.

Why It Matters

• The board election and auditor ratification confirm corporate governance and oversight for the next two years; continuity of auditors (BDO) affects the company’s audit and reporting process.
• The advisory approval of executive compensation signals shareholder support for pay practices but is non‑binding, so the board can consider the result when setting future pay.
• The presence of substantial broker non‑votes on director and compensation items indicates many shares held by brokers were not voted on those proposals, which can affect apparent support levels though not the outcomes reported.
