Largest BANNER CORP. shareholders voting in 2023-2024

Each is ranked by the shares voted on the item that the most managers of that type reported, shown as a share of the 34,449,548 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 BANNER CORP.’s 10-Q dated April 30, 2024. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 18, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At BANNER CORP.'s shareholder meeting held May 22, 2024, in the 2023-2024 proxy season, 268 asset managers reported how they voted on 10 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 3,383 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Advisory approval of the compensation of Banner Corporation's named executive officers — BANNER CORP.'s filing reports the proposal as approved, with 96% 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: BANNER CORP.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 24, 2024.
