At WEBTOON ENTERTAINMENT INC's shareholder meeting held June 4, 2025, in the 2024-2025 proxy season, 85 asset managers reported how they voted in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 531 separate fund positions. Their filings are grouped here into 5 reported items; because filers word the same ballot item differently, that can be more than the number of items on the ballot. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of the Company's named executive officers. — WEBTOON ENTERTAINMENT INC's filing reports the proposal as approved, with 98% support 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). Source: WEBTOON ENTERTAINMENT INC's Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 6, 2025.

Each item below shows how the 85 asset managers that disclosed a WEBTOON ENTERTAINMENT INC 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 WEBTOON ENTERTAINMENT INC’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.
