Welcome to NETGEAR's 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. I'm CJ Prober, CEO of NETGEAR. Before we get started, I'd like to thank our board and members of our executive team joining us today, as well as our partners at PricewaterhouseCoopers, NETGEAR's independent auditor, who are also in attendance and available to respond to questions. This meeting will now officially come to order. The time is 10:00 A.M. Pacific on May 28, 2026. Today's agenda is available on our meeting website for reference during the meeting. The polls are now open. You may vote online at any point until I announce the close of the polls, which will follow the presentation of the three proposals on the agenda today. Please note that no ballots, proxies, revocations, or changes will be accepted after the polls close.
If you've already submitted your proxy and don't wish to change your vote, no further action is needed. If you haven't voted yet and want to do so, please submit your vote online now. As a reminder, to vote or ask questions during the meeting, you'll need to be logged into this virtual meeting with your control number available on your proxy card. Following the presentation of all three proposals, we'll open the floor for questions, both on the proposals and for our auditors before announcing the preliminary voting results. We welcome your questions. Those eligible can submit them at any time during the Ask a Question feature on the meeting website, and we'll do our best to address questions related to today's proposals at the appropriate point in the agenda.
Finally, to help us keep the meeting running smoothly, we ask that you review the rules of conduct available under Meeting Materials on the meeting website. I'd like to introduce Kirsten Daru, our Chief Legal Officer, who will be serving as Inspector of Election today. Kirsten has signed the Oath of Inspector of Election, which will be filed with the minutes of this meeting, and she will also serve as Secretary of the meeting and manage its procedural formalities. Kirsten, could you please provide a report on the stockholder list, the mailing of the meeting notice, and the presence of a quorum?
Thanks, CJ. I have a complete list of the holders of record of NETGEAR's common stock as of March 30th, 2026, the record date for the meeting. The list is available for inspection by stockholders of record during this meeting, of course, for purposes relating to this meeting. Please see the link on our meeting website to view the list. I also have an affidavit certifying that NETGEAR's notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders was mailed in a timely manner to all stockholders as of the record date. I can also confirm that we have a sufficient number of shares present virtually and by proxy to constitute a quorum, so the meeting is duly constituted.
Great. Thanks, Kirsten. We'll now move on to the proposals. After all proposals have been described, we'll answer any questions submitted online related to them. Please submit any questions as soon as possible for our review. On to the three proposals on the agenda today. First is the election of six nominees for directors to serve until the next annual meeting and until their successors are elected. The nominees are myself, CJ Prober, Sarah Butterfass, Laura Durr, Shravan Goli, Laura Orvidas, and Janice Roberts. The second item of business is ratification of PricewaterhouseCoopers as NETGEAR's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31st, 2026. The final item of business today is the advisory vote on executive compensation of NETGEAR's named executive officers, as described in the proxy statement. The vote on this proposal is a non-binding stockholder advisory vote.
We'll now turn to any questions submitted about the proposals or for our auditors before we close the polls. Kirsten, are there any questions?
Confirming that there are no questions.
Okay. With no questions, we'll go ahead and close the polls for voting now as of 10:04 A.M. Pacific Time. Kirsten, could you please announce the preliminary results?
Happy to. The preliminary report of the Inspector of Election covering the proposals presented at this meeting is as follows. Number one, the proposal to elect each of the six nominees for directors on NETGEAR's Board of Directors is carried. Second, the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers as NETGEAR's independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year ending December 31st, 2026 is ratified. Third, the resolution concerning the advisory vote on the executive compensation of NETGEAR's named executive officers is approved. We expect to report our final voting results on a current report on Form 8-K to be filed with the SEC within four business days after the end of this meeting.
Thanks, Kirsten. This concludes today's meeting, and the annual meeting is now adjourned. Thanks for joining us today and for your continued support of NETGEAR.
This concludes today's meeting. You may now disconnect.
