Core & Main, Inc. Form 8-K Summary

Business context and reporting period

Core & Main, Inc. filed a Form 8-K dated February 2, 2022 under Item 8.01, Other Events. The filing concerns deadlines for stockholder proposals, director nominations, and other business to be considered at the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. It does not report quarterly or annual operating results.

Financial and operating metrics

The filing does not provide revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, debt, liquidity, guidance, or other financial metrics.

Material changes versus the prior comparable period

Because the Company did not hold an annual meeting in 2021, it established special timing provisions for the 2022 Annual Meeting. No financial or operational comparison is provided.

Deadlines, governance matters, and risks

  • Rule 14a-8 proposals: Stockholder proposals intended for inclusion in the Company’s 2022 proxy materials must be received by the Company’s Secretary before the close of business on February 25, 2022.
  • Other proposals and director nominations: Under Section 1.12 of the Amended and Restated By-laws, notices for business or nominations not intended for inclusion in the proxy statement must be submitted no earlier than March 3, 2022 and no later than April 2, 2022.
  • Deemed anniversary date: Because no 2021 annual meeting was held, the by-laws deem July 1, 2022 to be the relevant anniversary date for calculating the notice period.
  • Compliance requirements: Proposals and notices must satisfy Rule 14a-8, the Company’s by-laws, and applicable SEC requirements. Noncompliant submissions will not be effective.
  • The filing does not disclose any financial contingency, unusual operating item, or management outlook.
