ITEM 5.07SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
The 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Enova International, Inc. (“Enova” or the “Company”) was held on May 7, 2019. There were 33,689,863 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, of which 31,193,452 shares were present in person or by proxy. The stockholders elected Ellen Carnahan, David Fisher, William M. Goodyear, James A. Gray, Gregg A. Kaplan, Mark P. McGowan, and Mark A. Tebbe as directors; approved, on a non-binding advisory basis, the Company’s named executive officers’ compensation; and ratified the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2019.
One of the nominees for director, Daniel R. Feehan, did not receive a majority of the votes cast in favor of his election as a director. Accordingly, as required by Section 2.5(c) of the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, Mr. Feehan promptly tendered his resignation to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). Pursuant to the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “NCG Committee”) met to consider whether to recommend to the Board that it accept or reject the resignation, or whether any other action should be taken. The NCG Committee noted the importance of treating the vote of the stockholders with due regard. The NCG Committee observed that votes cast against Mr. Feehan’s election were consistent with the recommendation of Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (“ISS”), whose report recommended against Mr. Feehan’s re-election on the stated ground that Mr. Feehan was serving as a non-independent member of a key board committee. The NCG Committee considered that Mr. Feehan satisfies the independence criteria set forth in the applicable New York Stock Exchange and Securities Exchange Commission rules. The NCG Committee also considered Mr. Feehan’s extensive experience and expertise in the Company’s industry, and the benefits derived by the Board and Company management from Mr. Feehan’s participation in discussions of the Company’s business. After weighing the considerable importance of the vote of the stockholders against Mr. Feehan’s value as a Board member as summarized above, the NCG Committee unanimously recommended that the Board reject Mr. Feehan’s resignation. The Board then considered the recommendation of the NCG Committee and, substantially for the reasons given by the NCG Committee, voted unanimously in favor of a resolution that Mr. Feehan’s resignation be rejected and that the Mr. Feehan continue to serve as a director until the next annual meeting of stockholders.
The following is a summary of the voting results for the matters voted upon by the stockholders during the Annual Meeting:
