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 PAYMENTS INC.’s 10-Q dated March 31, 2025. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 25, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At GLOBAL PAYMENTS INC.'s shareholder meeting held April 24, 2025, in the 2024-2025 proxy season, 778 asset managers reported how they voted on 14 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 10,797 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of the company's named executive officers… — FOR was 85% 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.
