SAN JOSE, CA – A10 Networks, Inc. (NYSE:ATEN), a leading provider of advanced network security solutions with a market capitalization of $1.16 billion and impressive gross profit margins of 80.35%, announced the results of its 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on Thursday. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains strong financial health with a robust current ratio of 2.49. The company, which specializes in computer communications equipment, reported high shareholder participation with over 90% of the shares entitled to vote being cast in person or by proxy.
During the meeting, shareholders voted on several key proposals. The first proposal involved the election of directors, where Tor R. Braham, Peter Y. Chung, Dhrupad Trivedi, and Dana Wolf received a majority of votes for their election to the board. Eric Singer, however, received a notably lower number of votes for his re-election.
The second proposal, which passed with overwhelming support, was the approval of an amendment to the company’s 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
