Shareholder voting produced a majority turnout that keeps company leadership in place, signaling that one director faced noticeably lower support.
Overview
- Shareholders cast 161,451,593 votes, representing 54.53% of outstanding common shares, in the company’s annual meeting proxy tabulation.
- All eight director nominees were re-elected and investors approved fixing the board at eight members with 99.25% support.
- KPMG LLP was re-appointed as Endeavour’s auditor with 78.64% of votes in favour and shareholders authorized the board to fix the auditor’s remuneration.
- Director Kenneth Pickering received 74.90% FOR and 25.10% withheld or abstained, a noticeably lower level of support than other nominees.
