Each is ranked by the shares voted on the item that the most managers of that type reported, shown as a share of the 31,625,046 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 Forward Air Corporation’s 10-Q dated April 29, 2026. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 14, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At Forward Air Corporation's shareholder meeting held June 17, 2026, in the 2025-2026 proxy season, 223 asset managers reported how they voted on 8 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 1,925 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — To approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers… — Forward Air Corporation's filing reports the proposal as approved, with 96% 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: Forward Air Corporation's Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 17, 2026.
