SEC filingBoyd Gaming Corporation held its 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May 7, 2026, where stockholders elected eight director nominees, ratified Deloitte & Touche LLP as the independent auditor, and approved, on an advisory basis, executive compensation.
The 2026 Annual Meeting resulted in the uncontested re-election of all eight director nominees, reflecting broad board continuity. William R. Boyd and Marianne Boyd Johnson received the strongest support—over 92% of votes cast—while Christine J. Spadafor received the lowest support among nominees, with 66% of votes cast in favor and over one-third withheld. The ratification of Deloitte & Touche LLP passed with overwhelming support (97% of votes cast), signaling continued auditor confidence. The advisory vote on executive compensation passed with 74% of votes cast in favor, though the 15.4 million votes against—representing roughly 25% of votes cast—suggests notable shareholder concern regarding pay practices, particularly when combined with the 10.8 million broker non-votes that may reflect institutional policy constraints rather than opposition. No changes to board composition, auditor, or executive compensation structure were disclosed beyond the routine annual approvals.
