Largest CONN'S INC. shareholders voting in 2023-2024

Each is ranked by the shares voted on the item that the most managers of that type reported, shown as a share of the 24,885,975 shares outstanding at the time of that meeting.

Shares outstanding are taken from CONN'S INC.’s 10-K dated April 15, 2024. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on November 8, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
