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 SURGERY PARTNERS INC.’s 10-Q dated 2024-03-31. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on 04 October 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At SURGERY PARTNERS INC.'s shareholder meeting held 2024-06-06, in the 2023-2024 proxy season, 222 asset managers reported how they voted on 7 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 2,101 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation paid by the Company to its named executive… — FOR was 99.1% 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.
