Independent research firm publishes item-by-item recommendations on all six ballot measures within 28 hours of the company's proxy filing. (Within SPI's standing 48-hour / T+2 commitment.)
NEW YORK, NY — Signal Proxy Intelligence, the independent proxy research division of Signal Law Group, today published its recommendations for the Sept. 28, 2026 annual meeting of FedEx Corporation (NYSE:FDX). SPI issued a recommendation on each of the six items on the ballot, published 28 hours after the company's definitive proxy statement was accepted on EDGAR.
Reviewing the ballot from the perspective of the common shareholder and using publicly available information only, SPI assigned the meeting a concern band of Elevated. The firm recommends AGAINST on the advisory vote on executive compensation, citing that the filing states 2025 say-on-pay support was 63% and opposition centered on a former executive's separation package.
On the election of directors, SPI recommends FOR the director nominees as presented on the ballot.
“This ballot included two items where our recommendation diverged from the board's under our published framework. The meeting carries a concern band of Elevated, and the full rationale for each recommendation is documented in the report.”
— Hayden Smith, Head of Proxy Research
SPI recommends AGAINST on the following items:
SPI will publish a separate post-meeting divergence report comparing its recommendations to those of the incumbent proxy advisors after the meeting results are available.
