Not shown here: this season’s fund filings also report 1 item from the meeting of May 29, 2024, which belongs to the 2023-2024 season. A meeting outside this season’s July 1 to June 30 window is not counted in this page’s items or in its totals of asset managers and fund votes.

Each is ranked by the shares voted on the item that the most managers of that type reported, shown as a share of the 122,994,000 shares outstanding at the time of that meeting.

Percentages above are of 122,994,000 shares outstanding, as reported by WILLIAMS-SONOMA INC. on its Form 10-Q dated May 4, 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 WILLIAMS-SONOMA INC.’s 10-Q dated May 4, 2025. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 18, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At WILLIAMS-SONOMA INC.'s shareholder meeting held June 11, 2025, in the 2024-2025 proxy season, 731 asset managers reported how they voted on 10 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 8,387 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — An advisory vote to approve executive compensation — WILLIAMS-SONOMA INC.'s filing reports the proposal as approved, with 86% 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: WILLIAMS-SONOMA INC.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 13, 2025.
