Shareholders at SFL Corp Ltd.'s Annual General Meeting rejected a proposal that would have allowed the Board of Directors to redesignate common shares as preference shares and issue them. This outcome restricts the board's flexibility in future financing strategies, as they will not have the option to issue preference shares without further shareholder approval. While other routine governance proposals passed, this specific rejection signals shareholder caution regarding potential dilution or changes to the capital structure.
