As noted in its Form 8-K, Navistar International is the first company holding its annual meeting in 2013 to fail to gain majority support for its say-on-pay with only 17% voting in favor since abstentions count as “against.” Lower than anything we saw last year, although perhaps not surprising since nearly 50% of Navistar is held by just 3 investors, including Carl Icahn, who has blasted them for poor governance. Hat tip to Karla Bos of ING Funds for pointing this out!
