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 WESTAMERICA BANCORPORATION’s 10-Q dated March 31, 2025. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 18, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At WESTAMERICA BANCORPORATION's shareholder meeting held April 24, 2025, in the 2024-2025 proxy season, 251 asset managers reported how they voted on 11 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 3,709 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — APPROVE A NON-BINDING ADVISORY VOTE ON THE COMPENSATION OF OUR EXECUTIVE OFFICERS. — WESTAMERICA BANCORPORATION's filing reports the proposal as approved, with 99% 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).
