Shares outstanding are taken from KENNAMETAL INC.’s 10-K dated July 31, 2024. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 25, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

On the most widely held item on that ballot — Non-Binding (Advisory) Vote to Approve the Compensation Paid to the Company's Named Executive… — KENNAMETAL INC.'s filing reports the proposal as approved, with 99.1% 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).
