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 Avient Corporation’s 10-Q dated 2026-03-31. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on 02 October 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At Avient Corporation's shareholder meeting held 2026-05-14, in the 2025-2026 proxy season, 377 asset managers reported how they voted on 13 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 5,669 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Approval, on an advisory basis, of Named Executive Officer compensation. — FOR was 95% 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. Source: Avient Corporation's Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (filing date not recorded for this item).
