People enters voting agreement with Diller and von Furstenberg holders covering 46.4% of votes
On June 22, 2026, People entered a Voting Agreement with Barry Diller, Diane von Furstenberg and Alexander von Furstenberg, who have or may be deemed to have the right to direct voting of about 46.4% of People's outstanding voting power. The agreement requires shares above 48.5% of voting power to be voted in the same proportion as other stockholders, and the Board approved authorization to repurchase an additional 10 million shares, though People is not currently repurchasing shares.
Key points
- Voting Agreement parties have or may be deemed to have voting control over about 46.4% of People's voting power; shares above 48.5% must vote proportionally with other holders.
- The agreement terminates automatically if the parties and their affiliates own less than 30% of voting power or if a change of control occurs.
- The Board authorized repurchase of an additional 10 million shares of People Common Stock; People is not currently conducting repurchases.
- Christopher Currier was appointed Chief Accounting Officer effective June 16, 2026, succeeding Michael H. Schwerdtman, who retired.
