Percentages above are of 61,746,000 shares outstanding, as reported by PHOTRONICS INC. on its Form 10-Q dated January 28, 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 PHOTRONICS INC.’s 10-Q dated January 28, 2024. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 25, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At PHOTRONICS INC.'s shareholder meeting held March 27, 2024, in the 2023-2024 proxy season, 316 asset managers reported how they voted on 10 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 3,708 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — To approve by non-binding advisory vote executive compensation. — PHOTRONICS INC.'s filing reports the proposal as approved, with 92% 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: PHOTRONICS INC.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 28, 2024.
