Each is ranked by the shares voted on the item that the most managers of that type reported, shown as a share of the 91,532,719 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 AVIENT CORP.’s 10-Q dated March 31, 2025. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 14, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At AVIENT CORP.'s shareholder meeting held May 14, 2025, in the 2024-2025 proxy season, 373 asset managers reported how they voted on 14 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 6,196 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Approval, on an advisory basis, of Named Executive Officer compensation. — AVIENT CORP.'s filing reports the proposal as approved, with 93% 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: AVIENT CORP.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2025.
