A vote for the Disney's slate of board members will show support for Iger's performance as CEO since he returned to lead the company in November 2022. AdvertisementIt's the culmination of months of tussling between Disney and Peltz, who has been waging war against Disney's board since January last year. "When I sold Lucasfilm just over a decade ago, I was delighted to become a Disney shareholder because of my long-time admiration for its iconic brand and Bob Iger's leadership." And proxy advisory firm Institutional Shareholder Service recommended shareholders vote for Peltz, though not Rasulo.

Two competing slates of board seats are now up for a vote against Disney’s. Peltz has criticized Disney’s recent theatrical flops and said the company should reach “Netflix-like margins” with its Disney+ streaming service, among other issues. If Peltz is successful, he and Rasulo could gain up to two seats on the board, displacing Disney’s picks. More than 35% of Disney’s shares are held by these individuals, who could seriously sway the vote. The influential advisory firms Institutional Shareholder Service and Egan-Jones have also thrown their support behind Peltz for at least one seat on the board.

Read previewThe Disney proxy battle continues to heat up — and ordinary shareholders could cash in. Mom-and-pop investors are also being courted for their votes on a new marketplace called Shareholder Vote Alliance, which runs auctions for shareholders' proxy votes. Xu said Shareholder Vote Alliance doesn't reveal the names of the bidders but confirmed the bid is from a current shareholder. Shareholder Vote Alliance pitches itself as a way for everyday investors to generate income by monetizing their shareholder votes. Shareholder Vote Alliance closes its auctions a couple of days before shareholder votes.
