Director Elections

Election of Class I Directors

2 FOR
✓ FOR
Eric S. Yuan

Zoom's 3-year price return of +58.1% is strong positive, and the gap versus XLK (the company-specified benchmark, proxied by XLK — Technology Select Sector SPDR ETF) of -57.7 percentage points does not exceed the 65-percentage-point threshold required to trigger a vote against under the strong-positive TSR tier, so no TSR-based concern applies; Yuan also passes overboarding and attendance screens.

✓ FOR
Lieut. Gen. H.R. McMaster

The 3-year TSR gap versus XLK of -57.7 percentage points falls below the 65-percentage-point trigger threshold for strong-positive absolute TSR, so no underperformance flag fires; McMaster holds no other public company board seats and met the 75% attendance requirement.

Both Class I director nominees pass all applicable policy screens: the company's 3-year return of +58.1% is solidly positive, and the -57.7 percentage-point gap versus XLK (the company-specified benchmark, proxied by XLK — Technology Select Sector SPDR ETF) does not reach the 65-percentage-point trigger required under the strong-positive TSR tier; neither director is overboarded; attendance was adequate for all board members; and no independence, familial, or qualification concerns are identified.

Say on Pay

✓ FOR

CEO

Eric S. Yuan

Total Comp

$3,428,169

Prior Support

81%%

CEO Eric Yuan's total reported compensation for fiscal 2026 was $1,280,858 — an unusually modest figure for a large-cap technology CEO at a $28.6 billion company that is well within any reasonable benchmark for this title, sector, and market cap band, and approximately 62.6% lower than the prior year. The pay program has meaningful performance conditions: the annual cash bonus is tied to revenue and non-GAAP operating income targets with defined thresholds and caps, and the equity component used performance-vesting stock awards that paid out at 100% of target based on actual results; fixed salary represents a very small fraction of total pay, satisfying the pay-mix test. The prior say-on-pay vote received 81% support — above the 70% threshold — indicating no remediation obligation, and the company has demonstrated genuine responsiveness to shareholder feedback by reducing equity dilution, eliminating supplemental grants, and transitioning toward cash-based short-term incentives.

Auditor Ratification

✓ FOR

Auditor

KPMG LLP

Tenure

N/A

Audit Fees

$5,796,633

Non-Audit Fees

$0

KPMG received $5,796,633 in audit fees and zero in non-audit fees for fiscal year 2026, meaning the non-audit fee ratio is 0% — well within the 50% threshold; KPMG is a Big 4 firm appropriate for a $28.6 billion company; auditor tenure is not disclosed in the filing so no tenure trigger fires; no material restatements are noted.

Overall Assessment

The 2026 Zoom Communications annual meeting presents three standard proposals: director elections for two Class I nominees (Yuan and McMaster), KPMG auditor ratification, and an advisory say-on-pay vote. All three proposals pass applicable policy screens — the TSR gap versus XLK does not trigger director concerns, KPMG has zero non-audit fees, and CEO pay is well below benchmark with genuine performance linkage — resulting in FOR votes across the entire ballot.
