Each item below shows how the 993 asset managers that disclosed a American Water Works Company, 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 American Water Works Company, 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.

Not shown here: this season’s fund filings also report 1 item from the meeting of May 14, 2025, which belongs to the 2024-2025 season. A meeting outside this season’s July 1 to June 30 window is not counted in this page’s items or in its totals of asset managers and fund votes.

Percentages above are of 195,280,521 shares outstanding, as reported by American Water Works Company, Inc. on its Form 10-Q dated April 20, 2026 (see the filing on EDGAR). This is the count contemporaneous with the 2025-2026 meeting, not today’s. Each holding is as of its own filing, which may be dated before or after the meeting.
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 American Water Works Company, Inc.’s 10-Q dated April 20, 2026. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 14, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At American Water Works Company, Inc.'s 2 shareholder meetings in the 2025-2026 proxy season (held February 10, 2026 and May 13, 2026), 993 asset managers reported how they voted in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 13,648 separate fund positions. Their filings are grouped here into 21 reported items; because filers word the same ballot item differently, that can be more than the number of items on the ballot. On the most widely held item of the season, voted at the meeting held May 13, 2026 — Approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of the Company's named executive officers. — American Water Works Company, Inc.'s filing reports the proposal as approved, with 92% support of the votes cast (FOR divided by FOR plus AGAINST, the conventional basis for proxy support; abstentions, broker non-votes and unvoted shares are excluded because none of them took a side). Source: American Water Works Company, Inc.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2026.
