Summary

ON Semiconductor's 2026 annual meeting produced one notable governance shift: shareholders overwhelmingly approved a proposal to eliminate supermajority voting requirements, with 98.9% support. This change lowers the threshold for certain corporate actions, giving shareholders more influence over future decisions.

The board had not recommended this proposal, making the near-unanimous approval a clear signal of shareholder preference for simpler majority rules. Routine matters passed without controversy. All seven directors were re-elected with strong support (92.4%–99.7%), executive compensation was approved with 93.8% backing, and PwC was ratified as auditor with 93.4% support.

These results reflect normal, healthy shareholder alignment with management on standard governance items. Separately, the company extended departing executive Simon Keeton's employment by three months to facilitate an orderly transition in the Power Solutions Group.
