How asset managers voted at the Wolverine World Wide, Inc. 2025-2026 meeting

Each item below shows how the 310 asset managers that disclosed a Wolverine World Wide, 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 Wolverine World Wide, 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.

Shares outstanding are taken from Wolverine World Wide, Inc.’s 10-Q dated 2026-04-27. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on 04 October 2026; a live search always shows the current data.

At Wolverine World Wide, Inc.'s shareholder meeting held 2026-05-07, in the 2025-2026 proxy season, 310 asset managers reported how they voted in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 2,181 separate fund positions. Their filings are grouped here into 8 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 — Advisory resolution to approve executive compensation. — FOR was 97% 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. Source: Wolverine World Wide, Inc.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on 2026-05-13.
