Proxy Solicitation, Annual Meetings

Whether designated as “Routine” or not, annual securityholder meetings have become a primary stage for the visible effects of increasing shareholder activism. Management agenda items previously considered non-issues are now facing greater scrutiny and opposition from individual and institutional investors alike, while the scale and focus of shareholder proposals are receiving increased support from both security holders and influential institutional proxy advisors.
