Comscore has filed its definitive proxy statement for the annual meeting on June 16, 2026. The most significant proposal is the request for shareholder approval to increase the number of shares available for its 2018 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan by 3,000,000 shares. This represents a potential dilution of approximately 10.82% of the company's current outstanding voting shares (common stock plus as-converted Series C Preferred Stock). This substantial increase, following a recent recapitalization that already introduced significant dilution, is intended to help attract and retain key personnel but will further dilute existing shareholders. The filing also includes routine proposals for the election of two Class I directors, an advisory vote on executive compensation, and the ratification of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the independent auditor.
