Showing the 25 largest of 56 asset managers. See all 56 in the interactive database.
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 606,387,666 shares outstanding at the time of that meeting.

Percentages above are of 606,387,666 shares outstanding, as reported by Geron Corporation on its Form 10-K dated December 31, 2024 (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 Geron Corporation’s 10-K dated December 31, 2024. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 18, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At Geron Corporation's shareholder meeting held May 21, 2025, in the 2024-2025 proxy season, 244 asset managers reported how they voted on 6 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 1,280 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — To approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our Named Executive Officers, as… — Geron Corporation's filing reports the proposal as approved, with 91% 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: Geron Corporation's Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 27, 2025.
