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 GLOBAL INDUSTRIAL CO.’s 10-K dated December 31, 2023. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 14, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At GLOBAL INDUSTRIAL CO.'s shareholder meeting held June 3, 2024, in the 2023-2024 proxy season, 167 asset managers reported how they voted on 10 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 2,061 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — An advisory (non-binding) vote on the compensation of the Company's named executive officers. — FOR was 99% 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), which is more than half. Whether the item was approved is for the filing to say; that statement has not been read for this item.
