Each is ranked by the shares voted on the item that the most managers of that type reported, shown as a share of the 70,100,000 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 HILLENBRAND INC.’s 10-Q 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 HILLENBRAND INC.'s shareholder meeting held February 20, 2024, in the 2023-2024 proxy season, 327 asset managers reported how they voted on 5 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 1,836 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — To approve, by a non-binding advisory vote, the compensation paid by the Company to its Named… — FOR was 99.1% 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.
