Darden Restaurants announces annual shareholder meeting

Darden Restaurants will hold its annual shareholder meeting online on Sept. 23, 2026.

Shareholders will vote to elect nine directors.

Ballots include a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation.

Items also include ratifying KPMG as independent auditor for the fiscal year ending May 30, 2027.

A shareholder proposal seeks a policy to review and disclose findings when a director gets under 80% support in uncontested elections.
