Percentages above are of 130,797,216 shares outstanding, as reported by Surgery Partners, Inc. on its Form 10-Q dated March 31, 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 Surgery Partners, Inc.’s 10-Q dated March 31, 2026. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 18, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At Surgery Partners, Inc.'s shareholder meeting held June 5, 2026, in the 2025-2026 proxy season, 206 asset managers reported how they voted on 5 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 1,203 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation paid by the Company to its named executive… — Surgery Partners, 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: Surgery Partners, Inc.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 5, 2026.
