  1. 1

    Election of Directors

  2. 2

    Advisory Vote on Named Executive Officer Compensation

    More detail

    Proposal 2 asks stockholders to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation paid to Sandisk’s named executive officers as disclosed in the proxy statement. The vote covers the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables, and the accompanying narrative disclosures. Sandisk is seeking approval under Section 14A of the Exchange Act, which requires an advisory say-on-pay vote. The company’s stated compensation philosophy emphasizes pay for performance, long-term value creation, retention, and alignment with stockholder interests. The fiscal 2026 program placed substantial weight on performance-based annual and long-term incentives, including annual incentives tied to operating income, free cash flow, net debt, consumer revenue, and datacenter market share. Long-term awards included performance stock units linked to revenue and non-GAAP EPS, as well as performance-based launch grants tied to stock-price hurdles. The company reported maximum achievement for the fiscal 2026 short-term incentive plan and the launch grants, against a backdrop of exceptional reported revenue and stock-price performance. The Board recommends a vote FOR, citing the program’s alignment with stockholder interests, rigorous performance hurdles, and oversight by the independent Compensation and Talent Committee. Because the vote is advisory and non-binding, its outcome will not directly alter existing compensation, but the Board and committee state that they will consider the result in future compensation decisions.

  3. 3

    Ratification of Appointment of Our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

    ManagementBoard: FOR

    Ratify the Audit Committee’s appointment of KPMG LLP as Sandisk’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2027.
