Explanatory Note
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (the "Amendment") updates Item 5.07 of the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Universal Electronics Inc. (the "Company") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 8, 2023 (the "Original Filing"). The Original Filing reported the final voting results from the Company's 2023 annual meeting of stockholders that was held on June 6, 2023 ("2023 Annual Meeting"). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the Company's decision regarding how frequently it will conduct future stockholder advisory votes on named executive officer compensation. Except for the foregoing purpose, this Amendment does not modify or update any other disclosure in the Original Filing, and this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing.
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
In the Original Filing, the Company reported that a significant majority of the votes cast by stockholders at the 2023 Annual Meeting recommended that the advisory vote on named executive compensation occur every year. On August 24, 2023, after taking into consideration the stockholder recommendation, the Board of Directors of the Company determined that the Company will conduct the stockholder advisory vote on named executive officer compensation on an annual basis at least until the next stockholder vote on the frequency of such votes is held, which is expected to be no later than the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders in 2029.
