Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
At the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders ("2023 Annual Meeting") of IDACORP, Inc. ("IDACORP") held on May 18, 2023, four proposals were submitted to shareholders as described in IDACORP's definitive proxy statement, dated April 4, 2023, relating to the 2023 Annual Meeting. The proposals and the results of the shareholder votes were as follows:
| Proposal to elect directors for one-year terms | For | Withheld | Broker Non-Votes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Odette C. Bolano | 40,083,520 | 400,359 | 3,956,320 |

| Lisa A. Grow | 40,177,086 | 306,793 | 3,956,320 |
| Ronald W. Jibson | 39,993,594 | 490,286 | 3,956,320 |
| Judith A. Johansen | 38,547,917 | 1,935,962 | 3,956,320 |
| Dennis L. Johnson | 39,695,299 | 788,580 | 3,956,320 |
| Nate R. Jorgensen | 40,284,561 | 199,318 | 3,956,320 |
| Jeff C. Kinneeveauk | 39,940,182 | 543,697 | 3,956,320 |
| Susan D. Morris | 40,278,405 | 205,475 | 3,956,320 |
| Richard J. Navarro | 39,940,051 | 543,828 | 3,956,320 |
| Mark T. Peters | 40,080,289 | 403,590 | 3,956,320 |
The nominations were made by the IDACORP Board of Directors (the "Board"). With the exception of two new members of the Board, Susan D. Morris and Nate R. Jorgensen, the nominees were current members of the Board at the date of the 2023 Annual Meeting. All of IDACORP’s nominees were elected, with each nominee receiving a plurality of the votes cast. All members of the Board are also members of the Idaho Power Company Board of Directors.
| Advisory resolution to approve executive compensation | For | Against | Abstentions | Broker Non-Votes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 38,038,286 | 2,230,334 | 215,258 | 3,956,320 |
The proposal was approved, with the votes cast in favor exceeding the votes cast against the proposal.
| Advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation | One Year | Two Years | Three Years | Abstentions | Broker Non-Votes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 39,619,187 | 86,396 | 644,275 | 134,020 | 3,956,320 |
The frequency of every “One Year” received the highest number of votes cast on the proposal. Regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission provide that IDACORP must hold the advisory shareholder vote on the frequency of future advisory shareholder votes on executive compensation at least once every six years. In light of the Board's recommendation in the Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting and in light of these voting results and other relevant factors, the Board, at its May 18, 2023 meeting, determined that IDACORP will hold an annual shareholder advisory vote on executive compensation. IDACORP will continue to hold annual shareholder advisory votes until the Board decides to hold the next shareholder advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation.
| Proposal to ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as IDACORP’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2023 | For | Against | Abstentions | Broker Non-Votes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 42,789,954 | 1,566,562 | 83,684 | — |
The proposal was approved, with the votes cast in favor exceeding the votes cast against the proposal.
