Dell Technologies has finalized its redomestication to Texas by amending its bylaws, effective July 2, 2026. These amendments significantly increase the hurdles for shareholders to submit proposals, requiring a minimum of $1 million in market value or 3% ownership held for at least six months, and mandating solicitation of 67% of voting power. These changes, while formalizing the move to the Texas Business Organizations Code, substantially restrict shareholder rights and could reduce accountability for the board and management, particularly as major institutional shareholders are exempt from these new rules.
