Gen Digital Inc. 8-K filed 2026-09-11

Gen Digital Inc., which trades on Nasdaq under the tickers GEN and GENVR and was formerly named NortonLifeLock Inc. and SYMANTEC CORP, filed this 8-K on 2026-09-11. It is filed under Item 5.07, which reports the results of matters put to a stockholder vote. The votes were taken at the Company's 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, held on September 9, 2026, and the filing gives the final results for three proposals. Stockholders elected all nine director nominees: Sue Barsamian, Pavel Baudis, Eric K. Brandt, John C. Chrystal, Nora M. Denzel, Emily Heath, Vincent Pilette, Sherrese M. Smith and Ondrej Vlcek. Each will serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until a successor is elected, or until earlier resignation or removal. Stockholders also ratified the appointment of KPMG LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm for the 2027 fiscal year. The vote counts for each nominee and proposal are set out in the filing at the source link. The result most relevant to analysts and journalists is Proposal 3, the advisory vote on executive compensation, which was not approved. The Company states that it will continue to meaningfully engage with stockholders based on the say-on-pay results and will consider their feedback as it makes future compensation policies and decisions. Any specific changes to pay, the identity of opposing stockholders, and their reasons are not in the filing. The report is signed by Bryan S. Ko, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary.
