On June 15, 2023, World Fuel Services Corporation (the "Company") held its 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "2023 Annual Meeting"). At the 2023 Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders voted in favor of an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the "Name Change Amendment") changing the Company’s name to World Kinect Corporation (the "Name Change"). The Name Change Amendment was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida, and was effective on June 15, 2023. Effective at the open of market trading on June 16, 2023, the Company’s common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under its new name, World Kinect Corporation, as well as the Company’s new ticker symbol, "WKC."

The matters voted upon at the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting and the results of the votes were as follows:

As described above, the shareholders approved the Name Change Amendment.

The shareholders elected each of the Company’s nominees for director for a term expiring on the date of the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders or until their successors are duly elected and qualified.

The shareholders approved, by a non-binding, advisory vote, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers.

The shareholders voted in favor of a frequency of every one year for future advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers.

Based upon the voting results of the advisory proposal on the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation set forth in Proposal 4 above, the Company’s Board of Directors has determined that future advisory votes on executive compensation will be submitted to shareholders on an annual basis until the next required vote on the frequency of such votes.

The shareholders ratified the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2023 fiscal year.

On June 15, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.14 per share, which is payable on July 10, 2023 to shareholders of record on June 26, 2023.
