AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO PROXY STATEMENT
FOR THE ANNUAL general MEETING OF shareholders
TO BE HELD ON june 7, 2024
This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 14A (the “Amendment”) is being filed to amend the definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) of Garmin Ltd. (the “Company”) in connection with its 2024 annual general meeting of shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”), which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 24, 2024. The purpose of this Amendment is to reclassify the proposal to approve the Swiss statutory non-financial matters report as a “routine” matter pursuant to applicable New York Stock Exchange rules, rather than a “non-routine” matter. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment have the meaning ascribed to them in the Proxy Statement.
This Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Proxy Statement and, from and after the date of this Amendment, any references to the “Proxy Statement” shall be deemed to include the Proxy Statement as amended hereby. Except as specifically amended herein, all information in the Proxy Statement remains unchanged and no other updates have been made to the Proxy Statement.
The text under the heading “INFORMATION CONCERNING SOLICITATION AND VOTING—Broker Non-Votes,” which appears on page 11 of the Proxy Statement, is amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:
Although brokers have discretionary authority to exercise voting rights with respect to shares of Broker Customers on “routine” matters, they do not have authority to exercise voting rights with respect to shares of Broker Customers on “non-routine” matters pursuant to applicable New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) rules. We believe that the following proposals to be resolved upon at the Annual Meeting will be considered to be “non-routine” under NYSE rules and, therefore, brokers will not be able to exercise voting rights with respect to shares owned by Broker Customers in relation to these proposals unless the broker receives instructions from such customers:
This Amendment is being filed with the SEC on May 10, 2024.
