Percentages above are of 84,522,676 shares outstanding, as reported by NPK INTERNATIONAL INC. on its Form 10-Q dated April 30, 2025 (see the filing on EDGAR). This is the count contemporaneous with the 2024-2025 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 NPK INTERNATIONAL INC.’s 10-Q dated April 30, 2025. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 25, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At NPK INTERNATIONAL INC.'s shareholder meeting held May 15, 2025, in the 2024-2025 proxy season, 204 asset managers reported how they voted on 10 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 2,281 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Advisory vote to approve named executive officer compensation. — NPK INTERNATIONAL INC.'s filing reports the proposal as approved, with 95% 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: NPK INTERNATIONAL INC.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2025.
