How asset managers voted at the Fastenal Company 2025-2026 meeting

Each item below shows how the 1,043 asset managers that disclosed a Fastenal Company vote in their SEC Form N-PX filings actually voted. Share totals are the shares those managers' funds voted, summed across every fund they report. These are reported items, not a count of the ballot: fund filings describe one ballot item in different words. Two descriptions are shown as one item only on evidence — the same text (or one cut short of the other), the same director nominee, or a match to the same row of Fastenal Company’s own Form 8-K tally — never because they merely read alike. A description that could not be joined that way is listed on its own, so one ballot item can appear more than once.

Each is ranked by the shares voted on the item that the most managers of that type reported, shown as a share of the 1,148,035,061 shares outstanding at the time of that meeting.

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 Fastenal Company’s 10-Q dated April 10, 2026. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 25, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At Fastenal Company's shareholder meeting held April 23, 2026, in the 2025-2026 proxy season, 1,043 asset managers reported how they voted in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 15,463 separate fund positions. Their filings are grouped here into 16 reported items; because filers word the same ballot item differently, that can be more than the number of items on the ballot. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Approval, By Non-Binding Vote, Of Executive Compensation. — Fastenal Company's filing reports the proposal as approved, with 89% 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: Fastenal Company's Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 24, 2026.
