Neutral Impact 2 of 5 shareholder Written later

At its January 28, 2026 annual meeting, Valvoline shareholders approved the 2026 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which replaces the 2016 Incentive Plan, and elected all nine director nominees to one-year terms. Shareholders also ratified Ernst & Young LLP as the independent auditor for fiscal 2026 and approved the non-binding executive compensation vote, so the filing reports routine governance outcomes without a change in company direction.
