How asset managers voted at the Photronics, Inc. 2024-2025 meeting

Each item below shows how the 332 asset managers that disclosed a Photronics, Inc. vote in their SEC Form N-PX filings actually voted. Share totals are the shares those managers' funds voted, summed across every fund they report. These are reported items, not a count of the ballot: fund filings describe one ballot item in different words. Two descriptions are shown as one item only on evidence — the same text (or one cut short of the other), the same director nominee, or a match to the same row of Photronics, Inc.’s own Form 8-K tally — never because they merely read alike. A description that could not be joined that way is listed on its own, so one ballot item can appear more than once.

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 Photronics, Inc.’s 10-Q dated February 2, 2025. 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 April 2, 2025, in the 2024-2025 proxy season, 332 asset managers reported how they voted in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 3,996 separate fund positions. Their filings are grouped here into 12 reported items; because filers word the same ballot item differently, that can be more than the number of items on the ballot. On the most widely held item on that ballot — To approve by non-binding advisory vote, the compensation of our named executive officers. — Photronics, Inc.'s filing reports the proposal as approved, with 90% 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 April 3, 2025.
