Explanatory Note
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Global Payments Inc. (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 2, 2023 (the “Original Filing”). The purpose of this Amendment is to update the disclosure under “Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders” of the Original Filing to provide information regarding the Company’s determination on the frequency of future advisory, non-binding votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers. No other changes are being made to the Original Filing.
Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
At the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company held on April 27, 2023, the Company’s shareholders indicated their preference, on an advisory basis, that an advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers be held every year (“Say-on-Pay”). Based on these advisory vote results, the Company’s board of directors has adopted a policy that the Company will hold future Say-on-Pay votes every year until the next required non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of Say-on-Pay votes, which is required to occur no later than the Company’s 2029 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
