Each is ranked by the shares voted on the item that the most managers of that type reported, shown as a share of the 182,920,310 shares outstanding at the time of that meeting.

Percentages above are of 182,920,310 shares outstanding, as reported by Kopin Corporation on its Form 10-Q dated May 12, 2026 (see the filing on EDGAR). This is the count contemporaneous with the 2025-2026 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 Kopin Corporation’s 10-Q dated May 12, 2026. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on November 7, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At Kopin Corporation's shareholder meeting held May 21, 2026, in the 2025-2026 proxy season, 138 asset managers reported how they voted on 8 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 1,148 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — AN ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE THE COMPENSATION OF THE COMPANY'S NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, DURING… — Kopin Corporation's filing reports the proposal as approved, with 99% 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: Kopin Corporation's Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 28, 2026.
