Exxon director Hooley gets lowest approval vote at AGM
May 31, 2024 8:37 AM

May 31 (Reuters) - Exxon said on Friday that

lead director Joseph Hooley received an 87.1% approval vote at

its annual shareholder meeting, the lowest among its 12 board

members.

Chairman and CEO Darren Woods received 91.6% of votes in his

favor.

The meeting, held on May 29, saw investors vote to re-elect

Woods and Hooley by wide margins, despite some shareholder

opposition over its lawsuit against climate-focused investors

who had filed, then withdrawn, a measure for the meeting.

At last year's shareholder meeting, Hooley received a 91%

approval vote, while Woods received 92.7% of votes in his favor.
