How asset managers voted at the BANKWELL FINANCIAL GROUP INC. 2024-2025 meeting

Each item below shows how the 118 asset managers that disclosed a BANKWELL FINANCIAL GROUP INC. vote in their SEC Form N-PX filings actually voted. Share totals are the shares those managers' funds voted, summed across every fund they report. These are reported items, not a count of the ballot: fund filings describe one ballot item in different words. Two descriptions are shown as one item only on evidence — the same text (or one cut short of the other), the same director nominee, or a match to the same row of BANKWELL FINANCIAL GROUP INC.’s own Form 8-K tally — never because they merely read alike. A description that could not be joined that way is listed on its own, so one ballot item can appear more than once.

1. To approve the advisory (non-binding) proposal on the Company's executive compensation.

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 BANKWELL FINANCIAL GROUP INC.’s 10-Q dated 2025-04-30. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on 02 October 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At BANKWELL FINANCIAL GROUP INC.'s shareholder meeting held 2025-05-21, in the 2024-2025 proxy season, 118 asset managers reported how they voted in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 1,452 separate fund positions. Their filings are grouped here into 14 reported items; because filers word the same ballot item differently, that can be more than the number of items on the ballot. No official Form 8-K vote tally has been matched to this meeting, so this page states no certified outcome for its most widely held ballot item. On that item — To approve the advisory (non-binding) proposal on the Company's executive compensation. — the reporting funds cast 95% of the shares they voted in favour (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). That is the aggregate of those managers' own N-PX disclosures, not the company's certified result, and the funds are a subset of all shareholders.
