Elect six directors; ratify Ernst & Young LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm; hold a non-binding advisory “Say-on-Pay” vote to approve fiscal 2026 executive compensation; and transact any other business properly coming before the meeting.
Elect six members of the Board of Directors (Michael Berman, Mary Fedewa, Erin Mulligan Helgren, Tim Larson, Nikul Patel, and Gary Robinette), each to serve until the next annual meeting or until a successor is elected and qualified.
Ratify the Audit Committee’s appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as Champion Homes’ independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending April 3, 2027.
Non-binding advisory vote to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to Champion Homes’ Named Executive Officers for fiscal 2026 as disclosed in the proxy statement (including the CD&A, compensation tables and narrative).
This advisory (non-binding) proposal asks shareholders to approve the fiscal 2026 compensation paid to the Company’s Named Executive Officers as disclosed in the proxy materials. Management seeks shareholder approval to validate its pay-for-performance program, which the Compensation Committee designs to align executives’ interests with shareholders through a mix of base salary, annual cash incentive tied to consolidated EPS and revenue, and long-term equity awards (50% PSUs tied to relative TSR and market share metrics; 50% RSUs). The Compensation Committee uses an independent consultant, benchmarks against a defined peer group, and retains discretion to adjust payouts; it also maintains clawback and stock ownership guidelines and has structured severance and change-in-control protections. The Board emphasizes that the vote is advisory but that the Compensation Committee will consider the outcome when setting future compensation; it also highlights prior shareholder support (approximately 94.5% in favor at the 2025 meeting) as context. From a governance perspective, the key issues for investors are whether the performance metrics and weighting appropriately drive long-term shareholder value, whether the mix of annual versus long-term incentives and the PSU performance measures (rTSR and Single Family Home Completion Market Share) meaningfully tie pay to sustainable performance, and whether employment and severance arrangements create misaligned incentives. The Board’s rationale for recommending a FOR vote centers on alignment with shareholder returns, retention of key executives through multi-year equity, and use of relative and absolute operational metrics to measure performance. Potential investor concerns include the discretionary adjustments available to the committee, the details of change-in-control and severance protections, and the degree to which PSUs could pay out at high levels if peers underperform. Overall, the proposal represents a routine but important governance checkpoint: shareholders are being asked to endorse the company’s compensation framework and its application for fiscal 2026, with the vote serving as a signal to the Board and Compensation Committee rather than changing compensation directly.
To transact any other business that may properly come before the annual shareholders meeting or any postponements or adjournments thereof.
This line-item is a catchall authorizing the meeting to address any additional matters properly presented at the meeting, including adjournments, procedural motions, or unforeseen substantive items. It does not specify any particular substantive change or resolution; the proxy materials state the Company is not aware of any other matters expected to be presented. Because no specific proposal text or board recommendation is attached, shareholders should treat this item as procedural and exercisable by the proxies in their discretion for matters properly raised. Governance implications are limited: if a substantive proposal were introduced under this umbrella, it would require disclosure to shareholders and appropriate voting standards; absent that, the item functions to permit the meeting to proceed and for the named proxies to vote on procedural developments. Investors typically do not need to take action on a catchall item unless notified of additional business in advance; broker-dealers may exercise discretion on routine procedural matters but not on non-routine matters. The practical risk is low given the Company’s statement that no other matters are anticipated, but shareholders should monitor meeting announcements and any supplemental filings in case new matters are added close to the meeting date.
