Annual Meeting of Shareowners regulatory
"The Company held its 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareowners on April 30, 2026."
record date regulatory
"As of March 3, 2026, the record date for the meeting, 1,345,974,220 shares"
The record date is the specific day when a company determines which shareholders are eligible to receive a dividend or participate in an upcoming vote. It’s like a cutoff date; if you own the stock on that day, you get the benefits or voting rights. This date matters because it decides who qualifies for certain company benefits.
quorum regulatory
"A quorum of 1,194,489,831 shares of common stock was present or represented"
A quorum is the minimum number of members needed to officially hold a meeting or make decisions. It ensures that decisions are made with enough participation to represent the group’s interests, much like a majority must be present for a vote to be valid. For investors, understanding quorum is important because it affects when and how important company or organization decisions can be legally made.
broker non-votes regulatory
"Broker Non-Votes Tracy A. Atkinson | ... | 148,553,572"
Broker non-votes occur when a brokerage firm is unable to vote on a shareholder’s behalf during a company election or decision because the shareholder has not given specific voting instructions, and the broker is not allowed or chooses not to vote on certain matters. They are important because they can affect the outcome of votes, especially when the results are close, by effectively reducing the total number of votes cast.
abstentions regulatory
