How asset managers voted at the ACADEMY SPORTS AND OUTDOORS INC. 2024-2025 meeting

Each item below shows how the 364 asset managers that disclosed a ACADEMY SPORTS AND OUTDOORS INC. vote in their SEC Form N-PX filings actually voted. Share totals are the shares those managers' funds voted, summed across every fund they report. These are reported items, not a count of the ballot: fund filings describe one ballot item in different words. Two descriptions are shown as one item only on evidence — the same text (or one cut short of the other), the same director nominee, or a match to the same row of ACADEMY SPORTS AND OUTDOORS INC.’s own Form 8-K tally — never because they merely read alike. A description that could not be joined that way is listed on its own, so one ballot item can appear more than once.

Largest ACADEMY SPORTS AND OUTDOORS INC. shareholders voting in 2024-2025

Ranked separately for each type of Form N-PX report.

Each is ranked by the shares voted on the item that the most managers of that type reported, shown as a share of the 66,466,377 shares outstanding at the time of that meeting.

About this page

Every figure above is derived from filings made with the US Securities and Exchange Commission: Form N-PX, in which registered funds disclose how they voted every proxy and institutional managers disclose their votes on executive pay (say-on-pay, say-on-frequency and golden parachutes), and Form 8-K Item 5.07, in which the company reports its own meeting results. Shares outstanding are taken from ACADEMY SPORTS AND OUTDOORS INC.’s 10-Q dated May 3, 2025. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 14, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At ACADEMY SPORTS AND OUTDOORS INC.'s shareholder meeting held June 5, 2025, in the 2024-2025 proxy season, 364 asset managers reported how they voted in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 3,130 separate fund positions. Their filings are grouped here into 9 reported items; because filers word the same ballot item differently, that can be more than the number of items on the ballot. ACADEMY SPORTS AND OUTDOORS INC.'s own Form 8-K tally for this meeting is published below, but no row in it could be matched to the most widely held item, so this page states no certified outcome for that item. On that item — Approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the fiscal 2024 compensation paid to the… — the reporting funds and managers cast 99.4% of the shares they voted in favour (FOR divided by FOR plus AGAINST plus WITHHELD; abstained and unvoted shares are excluded because neither took a side). Fund and manager reports are combined in it and may count the same shares twice: it adds fund reports to institutional-manager reports, which can cover the same shares. It is not the company's certified result.
