1The document sent before the meeting
To vote at a shareholder meeting, one has to know what is on the agenda. The proxy statement is what a company sends shareholders for that purpose, setting out the proposals, the background of director nominees, the details of executive compensation, and the full text of shareholder proposals with the board response. It is also the document by which a company gathers proxies, which is where the name comes from.

That the record date falls about two months before the meeting is worth noting. Shareholders change daily, so the procedure cannot proceed without fixing whose holdings carry votes. Someone who buys shares after the record date has no vote at that meeting; someone who sells after it keeps the vote.
3How the agenda is built
The agenda pairs three standard items — electing ten directors, advisory approval of executive compensation, ratifying the accounting firm — with four stockholder proposals. Shareholder proposals do not come from the company; they are submitted by shareholders meeting certain requirements who ask for inclusion in the proxy materials.
Meetings at other companies this site covers show shareholder proposals occupying much of the agenda, and what investors are asking of management appears there.
4Where the form sits
A proxy statement comes before the meeting; the voting results come after, under Item 5.07 of Form 8-K. One meeting therefore leaves two documents, one showing what is to be decided and the other how it was decided. Read together, they show how much support each proposal drew.
Why it matters
One shareholder meeting leaves two disclosures — the proxy statement before and the voting results after. Reading them together shows how much support each proposal drew.
