Percentages above are of 247,854,366 shares outstanding, as reported by Stagwell Inc. on its Form 10-Q dated April 22, 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 Stagwell Inc.’s 10-Q dated April 22, 2026. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 18, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At Stagwell Inc.'s shareholder meeting held June 11, 2026, in the 2025-2026 proxy season, 181 asset managers reported how they voted on 11 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 2,079 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Approval, on an advisory basis, of the 2025 compensation of our named executive officers. — Stagwell Inc.'s filing reports the proposal as approved, with 98% 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: Stagwell Inc.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 12, 2026.
