Percentages above are of 86,047,032 shares outstanding, as reported by Syndax Pharmaceuticals, Inc. on its Form 10-Q dated March 31, 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 Syndax Pharmaceuticals, Inc.’s 10-Q dated March 31, 2025.

At Syndax Pharmaceuticals, Inc.'s shareholder meeting held May 14, 2025, in the 2024-2025 proxy season, 222 asset managers reported how they voted on 5 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 1,045 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — To approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company's named executive officers… — FOR was 94% 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), which is more than half. Whether the item was approved is for the filing to say; that statement has not been read for this item.
