TRUPANION, INC. 8-K

What Happened

• Trupanion, Inc. filed an 8-K on June 15, 2026 reporting the results of its June 10, 2026 Annual Meeting. Stockholders elected nine directors to serve until the 2027 annual meeting, ratified Ernst & Young LLP as the independent auditor for fiscal 2026, and approved the advisory (non‑binding) "say on pay" for named executive officer compensation for 2025.
• All nine director nominees were elected. Vote tallies (For/Withheld; Broker Non-Votes shown where applicable): Jacqueline “Jackie” Davidson 30,933,209 For / 59,298 Withheld (3,968,734 broker non‑votes); Paulette Dodson 30,647,418 / 345,089 (3,968,734 BN); Richard Enthoven 30,855,054 / 137,453 (3,968,734 BN); Murray Low 30,476,037 / 516,470 (3,968,734 BN); Elizabeth “Betsy” McLaughlin 30,813,033 / 179,474 (3,968,734 BN); Brad Powell 30,872,241 / 120,266 (3,968,734 BN); Darryl Rawlings 30,737,477 / 255,030 (3,968,734 BN); Howard Rubin 30,453,860 / 538,647 (3,968,734 BN); Margaret “Margi” Tooth 30,922,912 / 69,595 (3,968,734 BN).

Key Details

• Auditor ratification: Ernst & Young LLP approved as Trupanion’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 — Vote: 34,886,804 For; 53,345 Against; 21,092 Abstain.
• Advisory “Say on Pay” (non‑binding) approved for 2025 executive compensation — Vote: 30,437,067 For; 531,314 Against; 24,126 Abstain; 3,968,734 Broker Non‑Votes.

Why It Matters

• Board continuity: Re‑election of all nine directors maintains current leadership and governance continuity, which can affect strategic direction and oversight without immediate board turnover.
• Auditor and compensation votes: Ratification of Ernst & Young ensures continuity in financial auditing for 2026; approval of the advisory say‑on‑pay indicates a majority of voting shareholders supported the company’s 2025 executive compensation practices (the vote is non‑binding).
• Broker non‑votes: A substantial number of broker non‑votes (3,968,734) appeared on director and say‑on‑pay items, reflecting shares held in street name where brokers did not vote on those proposals; this affects the total voting base reported for those items.
