Shown as share counts, not percentages: no shares-outstanding figure has been matched to The Chefs' Warehouse, Inc. for the 2025-2026 season, so there is no denominator to divide by.
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. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on 02 October 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At The Chefs' Warehouse, Inc.'s shareholder meeting held 2026-05-08, in the 2025-2026 proxy season, 312 asset managers reported how they voted on 11 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 3,792 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… — FOR was 51.0% 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: The Chefs' Warehouse, Inc.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on 2026-05-11.
