Percentages above are of 197,937,450 shares outstanding, as reported by RING ENERGY INC. on its Form 10-Q dated 2024-05-06 (see the filing on EDGAR). This is the count contemporaneous with the 2023-2024 meeting, so the percentages are the ones that were true then, not ones restated against today’s share count.
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 RING ENERGY INC.’s 10-Q dated 2024-05-06. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on 02 October 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At RING ENERGY INC.'s shareholder meeting held 2024-05-23, in the 2023-2024 proxy season, 118 asset managers reported how they voted on 9 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 1,065 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION. — FOR was 81% 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.
