No immediate trading implications. The Board's rejection of Magill's resignation may signal governance friction, but the ISS error reduces the likelihood of further shareholder action. Monitor for any follow-up proxy contest or enhanced disclosure in the next proxy statement.

Executive Summary
Ennis reported results of its 2026 Annual Meeting. All management nominees were elected except Michael D. Magill, who failed to receive a majority of votes cast. Magill tendered his resignation, but the Board rejected it, citing ISS's recommendation was based on incorrect information about his independence. Magill will continue as a director. This is a routine governance disclosure with no financial impact.

- Director Michael D. Magill received 9,173,926 votes for and 9,966,712 against, failing to receive a majority.
