Percentages above are of 95,409,736 shares outstanding, as reported by BOYD GAMING CORP. on its Form 10-Q dated March 31, 2024 (see the filing on EDGAR). This is the count contemporaneous with the 2023-2024 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 BOYD GAMING CORP.’s 10-Q dated March 31, 2024. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 13, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At BOYD GAMING CORP.'s shareholder meeting held May 9, 2024, in the 2023-2024 proxy season, 361 asset managers reported how they voted on 11 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 5,103 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Advisory vote on executive compensation. — BOYD GAMING CORP.'s filing reports the proposal as approved, with 94% 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: BOYD GAMING CORP.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 13, 2024.
