What Happened
Urban Edge Properties (the Company) filed an 8‑K on May 6, 2026 reporting the results of its 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held that day. As of the March 9, 2026 record date, 125,972,783 common shares were outstanding. Approximately 119,585,141 shares (94.92% of outstanding) were present or represented by proxy.

Key Details

• Record date and turnout: 125,972,783 shares outstanding (record date March 9, 2026); 119,585,141 shares present or represented at the meeting (≈94.92%).
• Board elections: All eight nominees were elected — Jeffrey S. Olson; Mary L. Baglivo; Steven H. Grapstein; Norman K. Jenkins; Kevin P. O’Shea; Catherine D. Rice; Katherine M. Sandstrom; Douglas W. Sesler. (Individual vote totals are included in the filing.)
• Auditor ratification: Deloitte & Touche LLP ratified as independent registered public accounting firm for year ending Dec. 31, 2026 — For: 118,653,265; Against: 928,690; Abstain: 3,186.
• Say‑on‑pay (advisory): Compensation of named executive officers approved — For: 110,793,974; Against: 6,147,544; Abstain: 46,479 (broker non‑votes: 2,597,144).

Why It Matters
These results confirm the Company’s board composition and continuity in governance and auditing oversight for fiscal 2026. Ratification of Deloitte maintains the Company’s auditor relationship. The non‑binding shareholder approval of executive compensation indicates majority shareholder support for pay practices, though the advisory vote recorded several million opposing votes — a data point investors and the board may monitor when assessing governance and compensation practices going forward.
