Gannett's shareholders have elected nine nominees to serve as directors until the next annual stockholder meeting in 2026, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 

But the stockholders rejected amendments that would have eliminated super majority voting requirements for changes to the bylaws and charter. And they did not approve majority voting in uncontested director elections. 

On an advisory basis, the shareholders also approved the company’s executive compensation. And they ratified the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as the firm’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. 

The director nominees are:

• Maha Al-Emam 
• Theodore P. Janulis 
• John Jeffry Louis III 
• Michael E. Reed 
• Amy Reinhard 
• Debra A. Sandler 
• Kevin M. Sheehan 
• Laurence Tarica 
• Barbara W. Wall
