AGM Votes

How every resolution at a Japanese shareholder meeting was actually voted — and, for board elections, how much support each named director received. Companies must file this within days of the meeting. It is the only public record that puts a number on a director's mandate, and the low end of that number is where the disagreements are.

Distribution of Director Support

Every director election result we hold, by the approval percentage the company filed. Almost all sit above 95% — which is what makes the left-hand tail worth reading, not the bulk.

Support by Proposal Type

Median approval is the middle filed percentage in each group. A type with few resolutions has a median that moves on one result — the count is beside it.
