AGM 2026

May 7, 2026

Good afternoon, welcome to the C.H. Robinson Worldwide Inc. 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. My name is Nicole Strydom, the Deputy General Counsel and Assistant Corporate Secretary of C.H. Robinson, and I am acting as Chair of this annual meeting. We are hosting our 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders in a virtual format, which we believe allows C.H. Robinson to be more inclusive and enables us to reach out to and communicate with a greater number of our shareholders. We are joined today by shareholders attending via the link provided in our proxy statement and other shareholder materials. We will conduct the formal business portion of our annual meeting first and answer shareholders' questions following that discussion. If you have logged into the annual meeting with your control number, you may ask a question at any time by typing your question into the box at the bottom of the webpage. I would like to begin by introducing our Chief Executive Officer and the members of our Board of Directors standing for election today, all of whom are attending our annual meeting. Our Chief Executive Officer is Dave Bozeman. The members of our Board of Directors standing for re-election are Dave Bozeman, Kermit Crawford, Edward Feitzinger, Timothy Gokey, Mark Goodburn, Mary Guilfoyle, Jodee Kozlak, Michael McGarry, Paige Robbins, and Paula Tolliver. Various other members of C.H. Robinson's executive management team are also attending our annual meeting, including Dorothy Capers, Chief Legal Officer, Angie Freeman, Chief Human Resources and ESG Officer, Duncan Burns, Chief Communications and Marketing Officer, and Damon Lee, Chief Financial Officer. Brad Poole and Connor Lundquist, representatives from Deloitte & Touche LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year 2026, are also attending our annual meeting. Cheryl Niebeling, a representative from The Carideo Group, is also in attendance today and is acting as our Inspector of Elections. At this time, I would like to call the C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc. 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to order. On or before March 27, 2026, a notice of this meeting and a notice regarding the availability of the proxy materials via the Internet were properly given to all shareholders of record as of March 11, 2026.
