Percentages above are of 55,014,000 shares outstanding, as reported by Universal Technical Institute, Inc. on its Form 10-Q dated 2025-12-31 (see the filing on EDGAR). This is the count contemporaneous with the 2025-2026 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 Universal Technical Institute, Inc.’s 10-Q dated 2025-12-31.

At Universal Technical Institute, Inc.'s shareholder meeting held 2026-03-12, in the 2025-2026 proxy season, 287 asset managers reported how they voted on 5 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 1,495 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — To approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company's named executive officers. — 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.
