Why It Matters These results confirm the board composition and governance choices endorsed by a majority of voting shareholders, including continued engagement with PwC as auditor for 2026. The sizeable number of broker non‑votes (211.4 million) — typical when shares are held by brokers without voting instructions on certain matters — affected totals for director elections and the Say‑on‑Pay tally but did not prevent the proposals from passing. For investors, the filing provides clarity on leadership continuity and shareholder support for executive compensation and the auditor for the coming fiscal year.
