Also reported under other wordings, matched to the same row of ELI LILLY AND CO.’s official tally and shown with their own fund figures; their managers are not in the figures or the table on this card: “Section 14a Executive Compensation” (28 managers, Fund and manager reports combined; may count the same shares twice; no share total shown); “COMPENSATION” (3 managers, 4,767 for); “SECTION 14A SAY-ON-PAY VOTES” (2 managers, 654 for).

Not shown here: this season’s fund filings also report 1 item from the meeting of May 6, 2024, which belongs to the 2023-2024 season. A meeting outside this season’s July 1 to June 30 window is not counted in this page’s items or in its totals of asset managers and fund votes.
Ranked separately for each type of Form N-PX report. An institutional manager can report shares that a fund it advises also reports, so the two tables can list the same shares and are never added together. Each is ranked by the shares voted on the item that the most managers of that type reported, shown as a share of the 947,735,651 shares outstanding at the time of that meeting.
