Boot Barn stockholders approve 2026 equity incentive plan and elect all eight directors
At the August 26, 2026 annual meeting, Boot Barn stockholders approved the 2026 Equity Incentive Plan, which succeeds the 2020 plan for new grants. They also elected all management nominees to the board, approved the non-binding say-on-pay vote, and ratified Deloitte & Touche LLP as auditor. The plan adds 1,000,000 new shares, which matters to shareholders because it sets the potential pool for future equity awards.
Key points
- The 2026 plan authorizes 1,000,000 new shares plus Rollover Shares, capped at 1,088,748 shares as of the Effective Date.
- The plan terminates on the day before its tenth anniversary unless ended earlier or extended by the board with stockholder approval.
- Say-on-pay passed with 27,036,041 votes for, 334,861 against and 22,781 abstentions.
- Deloitte & Touche LLP was ratified as independent auditor for the fiscal year ending March 27, 2027.
