    Shareholders voted to hold executive compensation advisory votes every two years instead of annually, with next say-on-pay vote scheduled for 2028 annual meeting, reducing frequency of shareholder input on executive pay.

  • low

    All ten director nominees elected to serve until 2027 annual meeting with broad support, each receiving over 211 million votes in favor against minimal withhold votes.

  • low

    Ernst & Young LLP ratified as independent auditor for fiscal 2026 with over 212 million votes in favor, representing overwhelming shareholder approval.

Summary

TMC the metals Co. held its annual shareholder meeting on May 28, 2026, where shareholders approved routine governance matters. The most notable outcome was the decision to hold advisory votes on executive compensation every two years rather than annually, aligning with the board's recommendation.

This means shareholders will have less frequent opportunities to express views on executive pay, with the next say-on-pay vote not occurring until the 2028 annual meeting. All ten directors were re-elected with strong support, and Ernst & Young was ratified as the company's auditor for 2026. The voting results showed broad shareholder alignment with management recommendations across all proposals.

For retail investors, this filing represents standard annual meeting business with no material changes to company operations or strategy. Watch for the company's proxy statement ahead of the 2028 annual meeting to see how the biennial say-on-pay cycle affects executive compensation disclosure and shareholder engagement.
