Neutral Impact 2 of 5 shareholder Written later

At its May 13, 2025 annual meeting, Realty Income's stockholders elected all 10 director nominees, ratified KPMG LLP as auditor for 2025, and approved a non-binding say-on-pay vote. They also approved an amendment to the 2021 Incentive Award Plan that sets annual and initial equity grants to non-employee directors at a value of $200,000 rather than a fixed 4,000 shares or RSUs. The filing describes these as routine annual meeting outcomes.
