On March 18, 2026, The Walt Disney Company announced the appointment of Josh D'Amaro as a Director on its Board, effective immediately. D'Amaro, who is also the Chief Executive Officer of the company, will serve a term that expires at the 2027 annual meeting of shareholders. This decision was made during the company's annual meeting, where shareholders voted on several key matters. The results of the voting indicated strong support for the election of directors, including D'Amaro, as well as the ratification of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the independent registered public accountants for fiscal 2026. Additionally, shareholders participated in an advisory vote regarding executive compensation, which received a favorable outcome. The meeting also addressed a shareholder proposal concerning the employee gift-matching program, which was ultimately not voted on as it was withdrawn prior to the meeting. The overall atmosphere of the meeting reflected a commitment to governance and strategic direction as Disney navigates its future in a competitive entertainment landscape.
