Shareholders approved the election of three Class II directors at the annual meeting. However, a notable 37% of votes were cast against the ratification of Grant Thornton LLP as the independent auditor for 2026. This level of dissent is significant for a routine auditor ratification, particularly following the company's recent disclosures of a material weakness in internal controls and corrections to non-GAAP financial measures. It suggests shareholder concern regarding financial oversight.
