Percentages above are of 34,689,843 shares outstanding, as reported by HERITAGE FINANCIAL CORP. on its Form 10-Q dated March 31, 2024 (see the filing on EDGAR). This is the count contemporaneous with the 2023-2024 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 HERITAGE FINANCIAL CORP.’s 10-Q dated March 31, 2024. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 14, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At HERITAGE FINANCIAL CORP.'s shareholder meeting held May 6, 2024, in the 2023-2024 proxy season, 211 asset managers reported how they voted on 12 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 3,359 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Advisory (non-binding) approval of the compensation paid to named executive officers. — HERITAGE FINANCIAL CORP.'s filing reports the proposal as approved, with 98% 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: HERITAGE FINANCIAL CORP.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 7, 2024.
