Preparing for the 2027 US Proxy & Annual Reporting Season

Each proxy season brings new disclosure priorities and investor expectations, and 2027 will be no exception. The SEC is rethinking the shareholder proposal process, proposing optional semiannual reporting and broader scaled disclosure, and starting a wider review of Regulation S-K. Boards and compliance teams are also facing new risks, particularly in the areas of AI and cybersecurity, which raise questions about disclosure, board oversight and the scope of internal policies.

Join experts from Mayer Brown and Georgeson for a free CLE-eligible webinar, hosted by Intelligize, on Thursday, November 12, 2026 at 11:45 a.m. EST.

In this session, the panel will cover the developments shaping the 2027 season and give practical guidance for Form 10-K and proxy statement drafting, governance and compliance policy updates and investor engagement.

In this session, attendees will:

• Gain a fundamental understanding of recent proxy statement and annual report developments, and what is likely to apply in 2027
• Learn how to handle shareholder proposals now that the SEC staff no longer responds to Rule 14a-8 no-action requests and has proposed rescinding Rule 14a-8
• Learn about risk factor disclosure trends, including cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and other emerging topics
• Gain insight into shareholder proposal trends, proxy advisor developments and voting outcomes from the 2026 season, and what to expect in 2027, including related litigation risks 

CLE credit will be offered.
