Why It Matters

• Board continuity: the election of all nominees maintains the current Board slate, which matters for governance, strategy continuity and oversight.
• Executive pay endorsed: the affirmative advisory vote indicates majority investor support for the company’s named executive officer compensation (though advisory and non-binding).
• Auditor ratified: stockholders approved BDO as the company’s independent auditor for 2026, confirming the firm that will audit RideNow’s financial statements for the year.
• Voting context: a significant number of broker non‑votes were recorded on director and advisory matters (5,348,140), which reflects shares not voted by brokers and can affect the vote totals for shareholder‑decided items.
