Summary

Red Robin held its 2026 annual meeting on May 14, with approximately 80.66% of outstanding shares represented. All proposals passed, including the election of all seven directors and ratification of the company's auditor. The say-on-pay vote received 84.61% support, with 15.39% opposition—a moderate approval level that suggests some shareholder concern about executive compensation but falls short of significant dissent.

For context, typical say-on-pay votes at healthy companies exceed 90% support. Stockholders also approved an amendment to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, authorizing additional shares for employee equity compensation. This is a routine governance matter with no immediate concerns for investors.
