Good morning. I'm Joel Quadracci, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Quad/Graphics, Inc. On behalf of our company, I want to welcome you to the 2026 annual meeting of shareholders. We are holding the 2026 annual meeting virtually, and we have worked to offer similar participation opportunities as would be provided at an in-person annual meeting. Please note that no one attending or listening to this meeting is permitted to use any audio recording device. Before we begin the business portion of this meeting, I would like to introduce the other board members in attendance today. Dr. Kathryn Quadracci Flores, Douglas Buth, Beth- Ann Eason, John Fowler, Stephen Fuller, Christopher Harned, Melanie Huet, and Jay Rothman. This meeting is formally called to order. If you have not voted yet, please do so now online, as we will close the polls very shortly.
Let me now ask Dana Gruen, our General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, whether proper notice was given for this meeting and whether a quorum is present.
I have in my possession a list of shareholders of record entitled to vote by proxy at this meeting and an affidavit of mailing, certifying that the notice of internet availability and/or the notice of meeting, proxy statement, and 2025 annual report on Form 10-K were properly mailed to those shareholders. The shareholder list is available for inspection by any shareholder on the web portal for this annual meeting by using your control number found on your proxy card. With respect to the determination of a quorum, based on an attendance report provided by Dennis Connolly of Godfrey & Kahn, our official inspector of elections, there are present at the meeting by proxy, approximately 90% of the total number of votes entitled to be cast as of the March 18th, 2026, record date for this meeting. This constitutes a quorum under the bylaws of Quad/Graphics, Inc.
Thank you, Dana. Since a quorum is present, this meeting will proceed. It is 9:02 A.M. Central Time. I hereby declare that the polls are now closed on all matters. The first item of business is the election of nine directors to the board of directors. Joel Quadracci, Dr. Kathryn Quadracci Flores, Douglas Buth, Beth-Ann Eason, John Fowler, Stephen Fuller, Christopher Harned, Melanie Huet, and Jay Rothman have been nominated as directors to serve until the 2027 annual meeting of shareholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. The second and final item of business is an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers. Let me now ask Dana for a report on the vote.
On the election of Joel Quadracci, Dr. Kathryn Quadracci Flores, Doug Buth, Beth-Ann Eason, John Fowler, Steve Fuller, Chris Harned, Melanie Huet, and Jay Rothman to serve as directors until the 2027 annual meeting of shareholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified, each of them received a plurality of the votes cast at this annual meeting. On the advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers, a majority of the votes cast at this annual meeting voted for the compensation of our named executive officers.
Thank you again, Dana. The chair declares that the proposed slate of directors has been properly elected and the shareholders on an advisory basis have approved the compensation of our named executive officers. That completes our official business agenda for today, so I will now close the business portion of the meeting and declare it adjourned. The company did not receive any shareholder questions from shareholders, so there will be no question and answer session. Thank you once again for attending the 2026 annual meeting of the shareholders of Quad/Graphics, Inc. We appreciate your interest in Quad.
