SEC Form PRE 14A, also known as a preliminary proxy statement, is a form that is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) when a company holds a shareholder vote is required on an issue not related to a contested matter or merger/acquisition.
A proxy statement outlines the changes or updates, so that shareholders can verify the information and see the company holding itself accountable for its decisions. Shareholders hold an important role in the future success of the company, which requires access to information.
The Companies Act 2006 simply refers to a shareholder's right to appoint “another person”. Therefore, a shareholder can appoint any other person to serve as their proxy. There is no statutory requirement for a proxy to be a shareholder, director, or secretary of the company.
A proxy statement allows shareholders time they need to research and consider the options before them, so they can make an educated decision at vote time. Detailed reports give shareholders relevant data that they can use to assess the health of the company and the best choices for the future.
Proxy statements describe matters up for shareholder vote, and include management and executive compensation information if the shareholders are voting for the election of directors.
Proxy Statement Filing Date: Allow 1-3 business days between the definitive proxy statement SEC Filing date and mail date. Meeting Date: At least 40 calendar days is required between the mailing and meeting dates if you are sending the Notice only.
The information required in the proxy statement must include: (1) the identity of the late filer; (2) the number of late filings; (3) the number of transactions not reported on time; and (4) any known failure to file a required form. The solicitation of proxies section is required by Item 4 of Schedule 14A.
To validly appoint a proxy, the shareholder must send a 'proxy notice' to the director(s) at least 48 hours (two clear working days) before the relevant general meeting. This notice should contain the following information: Name and service address of the shareholder who is appointing the proxy.
"Proxy access" is shorthand for the ability of a long-term shareowner (or a group of long-term shareowners) to place a limited number of alternative board candidates on the company's proxy card (ballot) for the company's annual shareowner meeting.
