About this page

Every figure above is derived from filings made with the US Securities and Exchange Commission: Form N-PX, in which registered investment companies and institutional managers disclose how they voted every proxy, and Form 8-K Item 5.07, in which the company reports its own meeting results. Shares outstanding are taken from ACCEL ENTERTAINMENT INC.’s 10-Q dated 2023-03-31. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on 02 October 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At ACCEL ENTERTAINMENT INC.'s shareholder meeting held 2024-05-09, in the 2023-2024 proxy season, 145 asset managers reported how they voted on 4 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 766 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Non-binding advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers. — FOR was 99.3% of the votes cast (FOR divided by FOR plus AGAINST, the conventional basis for proxy support; abstentions, broker non-votes and unvoted shares are excluded because none of them took a side), which is more than half. Whether the item was approved is for the filing to say; that statement has not been read for this item.
