Stratasys Announces 2025 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders
Stratasys Ltd. (NASDAQ:SSYS) ("Stratasys" or the "Company") today announced that it will hold its 2025 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (the "Meeting") on Tuesday, September 30, 2025, at 3:00 p.m. Israel time, at Meitar Law Offices, 16 Abba Hillel Road, 10th floor, Ramat Gan 5250608, Israel. The record date for shareholders entitled to vote at the Meeting is Wednesday, August 20, 2025.
The agenda for the Meeting is as follows:
- Re-election of each of Messrs. Yuval Cohen, S. Scott Crump, Aris Kekedjian, John J. McEleney, Dov Ofer, David Reis and Yair Seroussi, and Ms. Adina Shorr, collectively constituting the Company's director nominees, to serve as a director of the Company until the Company's next annual general meeting of shareholders and until the due election and qualification of his or her successor, or until his or her earlier resignation, replacement or removal.
- Approval of an amended compensation package for Mr. Yoav Zeif, the Company's Chief Executive Officer.
- Reappointment of Kesselman & Kesselman, a member of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited, as the Company's independent auditors for the year ending December 31, 2025 and for the additional period until the Company's next annual general meeting of shareholders, and authorization of the Board (upon recommendation of the audit committee of the Board) to fix their remuneration.
Stratasys' Board recommends that Stratasys' shareholders vote in favor of each of the above proposals.
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon (which excludes abstentions and broker non-votes) is necessary for the approval of each of the proposals. Under the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 (the "Companies Law"), the approval of Proposal 2 is also subject to satisfaction of one of the following additional voting requirements:
• the majority voted in favor of the proposal must include a majority of the shares held by non-controlling shareholders who do not have a conflict of interest (referred to in the Companies Law as a "personal interest") in the approval of the proposal that are voted at the Meeting, excluding abstentions; or
• the total number of shares held by non-controlling, non-conflicted shareholders (as described in the previous bullet-point) voted against the proposal must not exceed two percent (2%) of the aggregate voting rights in the Company.
For purposes of the above special voting requirements, to the best of our knowledge, there are no shareholders who would be deemed "controlling shareholders" of the Company under the Companies Law.
In addition to the foregoing proposals, at the Meeting, the audited, consolidated financial statements of Stratasys for the annual period ended December 31, 2024 will be presented to, and considered by, Stratasys' shareholders (which will not involve a vote).
Whether or not you attend the Meeting, your vote is important. Accordingly, you are asked to participate and vote regardless of the number of ordinary shares you own.
