Proposals
On the ballot3
- 1
Election of Directors
ManagementBoard: FORElect three Class III director nominees (Matthew Bromberg, Keisha Smith, James Whitehurst) to serve until 2029.
- 2
Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
ManagementBoard: FORRatify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as independent registered public accounting firm for 2026.
More detail
Our Audit Committee appointed Ernst & Young as independent auditors for 2026 and seeks shareholder ratification as good corporate practice, allowing stockholders to provide input but not legally required. The proposal asks shareholders to ratify EY’s appointment; management recommends a “FOR” vote. If not ratified, the Audit Committee will reconsider the appointment, but even if ratified the Audit Committee retains the right to change auditors during the year if in the Company’s best interest. There are no significant conflicts disclosed; the Audit Committee determined that Ernst & Young’s non-audit services are compatible with independence, and disclosed audit fees for 2024 and 2025. The vote requires a majority of voting power present and is considered a routine matter under NYSE rules, so brokers may vote uninstructed shares.
- 3
Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation (Say-on-Pay
ManagementBoard: FORNon-binding advisory vote to approve the compensation of the named executive officers as disclosed in the proxy statement.
More detail
This advisory proposal asks shareholders to approve, on a non-binding basis, the Company’s executive compensation as disclosed. Management frames compensation as pay-for-performance with significant at-risk components (PSUs, RSUs, bonuses), increased PSU weighting and metrics (revenue and Adjusted EBITDA Less SBC Margin) to address stockholder concerns about dilution and performance, and recent changes after a low prior say-on-pay vote. The Board recommends 'FOR' and will consider vote results when setting future compensation. The proposal is non-binding but provides an important governance signal; it's 'non-routine' so brokers cannot vote uninstructed shares.
