Percentages above are of 25,806,033 shares outstanding, as reported by ESCO TECHNOLOGIES INC. on its Form 10-Q dated January 31, 2025 (see the filing on EDGAR). This is the count contemporaneous with the 2024-2025 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 ESCO TECHNOLOGIES INC.’s 10-Q dated January 31, 2025. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 25, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At ESCO TECHNOLOGIES INC.'s shareholder meeting held February 4, 2025, in the 2024-2025 proxy season, 304 asset managers reported how they voted on 5 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 1,794 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — An advisory vote to approve the compensation of the Company's executive officers — ESCO TECHNOLOGIES INC.'s filing reports the proposal as approved, with 99% 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: ESCO TECHNOLOGIES INC.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 6, 2025.
