International Paper shareholders elect 11 directors and reject LGBTQIA+ equity proposal

Neutral Impact 2 of 5 shareholder Written later

At its May 12, 2025 annual meeting, International Paper shareholders elected all 11 director nominees and ratified Deloitte & Touche LLP as auditor for 2025. The company also amended its Pension Restoration Plan so employees in the cellulose fibers business keep earning service toward early retirement after the planned divestiture of that business.

Key points

  • All 11 director nominees elected for one-year terms, with votes for ranging from about 384.9 million to 428.1 million shares
  • Shareowners ratified Deloitte & Touche LLP as independent auditor for 2025, with 450,810,149 votes for
  • Shareowners rejected a non-binding LGBTQIA+ equity and inclusion report proposal, with 27,910,701 votes for and 398,849,110 against
  • Amendment No. 9 covers participants in the global cellulose fibers business immediately before its planned divestiture; it benefits Clayton R. Ellis, a named executive officer

Written later: this filing was briefed after the fact, when past filings were added to the site, so the brief may be read with hindsight; the filing itself is the record of what was known on May 14, 2025.

Briefs are written by AI from the filing text (each brief's own page names the model) and can contain mistakes — open the filing before acting on anything. Impact (1-5) and tone are the model's reading of the filing for shareholders, not a price forecast. Not investment advice.
