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 Bristol-Myers Squibb Company’s 10-Q dated April 21, 2026. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 14, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At Bristol-Myers Squibb Company's shareholder meeting held May 5, 2026, in the 2025-2026 proxy season, 1,502 asset managers reported how they voted on 15 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 20,784 separate fund positions.
