Key Changes

  • high

    Board amended bylaws to require 70% supermajority shareholder vote to change provisions governing director terms or bylaw amendment procedures, up from simple majority, making it significantly harder for shareholders to alter governance structure.

Summary

Fermi's board amended the company's bylaws on May 13, 2026, to require a 70% supermajority shareholder vote for any changes to provisions governing the number and tenure of directors or the bylaw amendment process itself. Previously, shareholders could amend these provisions with a simple majority. The change makes it substantially harder for shareholders to alter the board's structure or the rules governing how bylaws can be changed, effectively entrenching the current governance framework.

This is a defensive governance move that shifts power away from shareholders. A 70% threshold is difficult to achieve in practice, particularly if management opposes a proposal, giving the board significant protection from shareholder-driven governance reforms. Investors should watch whether this precedes other defensive measures or reflects concerns about activist pressure or control contests.
