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 BIOLIFE SOLUTIONS INC.’s 10-Q dated 2024-06-30. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on 04 October 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At BIOLIFE SOLUTIONS INC.'s shareholder meeting held 2024-08-01, in the 2024-2025 proxy season, 231 asset managers reported how they voted on 7 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 1,767 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — TO APPROVE, ON A NON-BINDING, ADVISORY BASIS, THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS. — the proposal passed with 87% support 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). Source: BIOLIFE SOLUTIONS INC.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on 2024-08-06.
