Key Facts for Investor Verification
- Verify the composition of the newly elected Board of Directors against the company's latest proxy statement.
- Confirm the appointment of KPMG LLP as the independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018.
- Note the significant number of broker non-votes (143,673,103) recorded for the director election and the say-on-pay proposal, which may indicate a large portion of shares held in street name where brokers lacked discretionary voting power.
- Review the company's 10-K or 10-Q filings for the actual financial metrics and operational updates, as this 8-K contains none.
