Good morning, and welcome to the Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc. Annual Meeting. I would now like to turn the conference over to Mr. Tom Taylor, Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors. Please go ahead, sir.
Hello, ladies and gentlemen. Will the meeting please come to order? Welcome to the annual meeting of stockholders of Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc. I am Tom Taylor, Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors, and I will be presiding at this meeting. I am pleased that we are joined on this call by other members of our board of directors as well as our executive officers. Also present at the meeting today are certain representatives from our independent public accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP. David Christopherson, our Executive Vice President and Corporate Secretary, will act as Secretary of the Meeting. An agent of Broadridge Investor Solutions or Broadridge, has been appointed to act as Inspector of Election and is also attending electronically. Please note that this meeting is being recorded. However, no one attending via the webcast or telephone is permitted to use any audio recording device.
The Board of Directors fixed the close of business on March 16th, 2026 as the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote at this meeting. As Chairman of this meeting, I now rule as follows. Based on the affidavit of distribution provided by Broadridge, notice of this meeting was properly served to all stockholders as of record as of the record date. A quorum is present as the holders of a majority in voting power of all shares of capital stock of the corporation entitled to be cast at this meeting are represented by proxy. All items of business set forth in the proxy statement are properly before the meeting, and the polls are now open. Now, I will present the matters to be voted on.
Proposal one is the election of 11 directors for one year terms expiring at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders once their respective successors have been duly elected and qualified, or until earlier resignation or removal. The current Board of Directors has nominated Nada Aried, Norman Axelrod, William Giles, Dwight James, Melissa Kersey, Ryan Marshall, Bradley Paulsen, Thomas Taylor, Felicia Thornton, George Vincent West, and Charles Young. Proposal two is the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the corporation's independent auditors for the corporation's 2026 fiscal year. Proposal three is the non-binding advisory role, excuse me, advisory vote to approve the compensation paid to the corporation's named executive officers as described in the proxy statement for the fiscal year ending December 25, 2025. This proposal is often called a Say on Pay proposal.
Proposal four is the approval of our amended and restated 2017 Stock Incentive Plan. Any stockholder who has logged in with their control number and who hasn't yet voted or wishes to change their vote may do so by clicking on the voting button on the web portal and following the instructions there. Your Board recommends that you vote for proposals one through four. Now that everyone has had the opportunity to vote, I now declare the polls for the 2026 Floor & Decor annual stockholder meeting closed. We now have the preliminary results of voting for the record. The results of voting. One, the Inspector of Election has informed us that the corporation has received the requisite votes to duly elect the nominees for election as directors to the Board of Directors.
Two, to ratify the selection of Ernst & Young LLP as the corporation's independent auditor for the corporation's 2026 fiscal year. Three, to approve on an advisory basis the compensation paid to the corporation's named executive officers for the 2025 fiscal year. Four, to approve the amended and restated 2017 Stock Incentive Plan. A Form 8-K with the final voting results will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission within 4 business days. There being no other business having been properly brought before this annual meeting, I declare the meeting adjourned. In closing, I would like to thank each of you for joining us virtually.
