Shareholder Voting Results

The 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (“FIS” or “the Company”) was convened to vote on several significant matters:

1. Election of Directors:
   • All nominees for the Board of Directors were elected. Specific details of individual director votes were not disclosed in the report, but the election of all nominated directors signals continued confidence in the existing leadership team.
2. Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation (“Say on Pay”):
   • Shareholders rejected the proposed compensation for named executive officers, with only 3,711,970 votes in favor against 125,371,576 votes opposed, and 1,330,746 abstentions. There were 36,928,294 broker non-votes.
   • This overwhelming negative vote on executive pay is a major development. It reflects significant shareholder dissatisfaction with the Company’s compensation practices. Such a result is likely to be price sensitive, as it may trigger changes in executive pay structure, leadership, or corporate governance, and could affect investor confidence in management.
3. Ratification of Independent Auditor:
   • Shareholders ratified the appointment of KPMG LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2026, with 438,020,393 votes for, 25,510,333 votes against, and 1,811,710 abstentions.
   • While this is a routine matter, the strong approval indicates shareholder support for the Company’s financial oversight and audit practices.

Emerging Growth Company Status

FIS is not an “emerging growth company” and has not elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards. This indicates its maturity as a public company.

Potential Price-Sensitive Information for Investors

• Major Shareholder Rejection of Executive Compensation: The extraordinarily high percentage of votes against the executive compensation proposal is a significant event. It could lead to changes in management, revised compensation structures, or increased shareholder activism, all of which can impact FIS’s stock price.
• Routine Approval of Auditor: While routine, continued support for KPMG as auditor provides assurance on financial reporting integrity.
• No Emerging Growth Company Status: This indicates that FIS is not subject to reduced disclosure or extended compliance timelines, which can be relevant for analysts evaluating risk and regulatory exposure.

Other Regulatory Disclosures

FIS disclosed that there were no written communications under Rule 425, no soliciting material under Rule 14a-12, no pre-commencement tender offers under Rule 14d-2(b) or Rule 13e-4(c). These disclosures indicate that there are no merger or acquisition-related communications or other special regulatory events that might affect the share price at this time.

Executive Signatory

The Form 8-K was signed by Caroline Tsai, Executive Vice President, Chief Legal and Corporate Affairs Officer and Corporate Secretary, reflecting the Company’s commitment to legal and governance compliance.

Conclusion

Investor Takeaway: The most notable outcome from FIS’s 2026 annual meeting is the strong shareholder rebuke of executive pay. Investors should monitor potential changes in leadership, compensation policy, and governance, as these developments could have a material impact on the Company’s share value.
