How asset managers voted at the CHESAPEAKE ENERGY CORP. 2023-2024 meetings

Each item below shows how the 543 asset managers that disclosed a CHESAPEAKE ENERGY CORP. 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 CHESAPEAKE ENERGY CORP.’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.

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. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on 02 October 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At CHESAPEAKE ENERGY CORP.'s 2 shareholder meetings in the 2023-2024 proxy season (held 2024-06-06 and 2024-06-18), 543 asset managers reported how they voted in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 9,444 separate fund positions. Their filings are grouped here into 24 reported items; because filers word the same ballot item differently, that can be more than the number of items on the ballot.
