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. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 18, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At CASSAVA SCIENCES INC.'s shareholder meeting held May 23, 2025, in the 2024-2025 proxy season, 152 asset managers reported how they voted on 6 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 747 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — To approve, by a non-binding advisory vote, 2024 executive compensation for the Company's named… — CASSAVA SCIENCES INC.'s filing reports the proposal as approved, with 79% 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).
